Ah God, I can’t promise an amazingly eloquent report, but I do definitely owe you all a report after the months of getting enjoyment reading everyone else’s!
Background
We got engaged in July 2012, a total surprise he got down on one knee on a surprise mid-week meal at a lovely place called the Belle Époque, he had secretly booked me the day after off work and booked us a room to stay in overnight at the restaurant, save to say we got very drunk on champagne that night. The day after he took me to Chester zoo where he had adopted me the Spectacled Bear (my favourite zoo animal). Chester zoo was our first date when we met two years prior.
I had always dreamed of getting married in the Lake District, however when we started looking at Venues I just didn’t fall in love with any of them, and couldn’t get the Belle Époqueout of my head. It was the perfect place, intimate, beautifully furnished, open fires and most importantly gorgeous food!
We booked the Belle Époque for Saturday 7th December 2013. I was so excited!
