Carole and Peter’s Wedding Ceremony at Colwick Hall, Nottingham, was happy and emotional.  With a sumptuous purple and ivory colour scheme, the ceremony room was all set to receive family and friends.

Carole and her bridesmaids entered to the haunting melody of ‘How Long Will I Love You’ by Ellie Goulding.  The Wedding Ceremony focused on the love that Carole and Peter have for each other, which was reflected beautifully in their wedding vows. We enjoyed the story of how they met and laughed when we heard that Carole slept through a Guns & Roses concert.

Their wedding ceremony included hand-fasting with beautiful purple, cream and white ribbons signifying spirituality, balance and devotion. After the exchange of vows and rings we all sang ‘Stand By Me’ and were treated to Peter doing a little dance with Carole. And through it all, Peter never took his eyes off Carole.

After signing their commemorative certificate, everybody stood for their marriage blessing.  Their final piece of music was ‘Mr Blue Sky’ by E.L.O and they left to congratulations and happy applause.

We had a wonderful time with Carole and Peter, getting to know them and being allowed the privilege of leading their Wedding Ceremony.  Carole and Peter have given White Rose Ceremonies a wonderful testimonial which we hope you enjoy.

“Thank you so much for a beautiful wedding ceremony last Sunday. Everything was perfect. Both Pete and I knew from the very first time we met you that we wanted you to perform our wedding at Colwick Hall in Nottingham.

You encouraged and helped us to create a truly individual and very special ceremony that we will remember for the rest of our lives. All our guests were just blown away by the personalised words and readings and said how perfectly the ceremony reflected and symbolised our love for each other.

We are so glad that we chose White Rose Ceremonies for our wedding as together we created an amazing and very special day. Thank you once again Rebecca and also thanks to Dave for the fabulous photos.”
