Charmaine Walker says her wedding day to Adam Hatch was so perfect that she couldn’t stop smiling for three days afterwards.

“The wedding was magical and exceeded expectations, it was so personal and nothing went wrong. I want to relive it over and over again,” Charmaine, 28, says.

She and Adam, 31, held their classic wedding on July 16, 2016. Seventy family and friends watched on as they wed at St Michael’s Church, Melkshamat, before their reception at Bowood Hotel Spa and Golf Resort in Wiltshire.

“My daughter was included so much throughout the day as Adam is not her biological father and it just made the day even more magical as he made a commitment to her also,” Charmaine says.

The bride, who graduated from university just a week before the wedding, says the day “completely exceeded our expectations”.

“We didn’t stop smiling all day even through all of Adams tears! I wish I could relive the day over and over again it was perfect,” she says.

“I didn’t think we could fall any more in love until we were husband and wife and its like we have discovered a whole new kind of love.”
