After eight years together, Steve, 32, proposed on a deserted beach in Crete. \u201cI looked quite scared, said yes, then cried a bit and thought I was going to be sick \u2026 a fairytale moment,\u201d jokes the bride.<\/p>\n<p>Their Selwyn College wedding in Cambridge was held before 130 guests on October 10, 2015. \u201cWe were lucky enough to get married in a Cambridge college as my dad is a fellow there,\u201d explains Louise. \u201cThis meant we had a fabulous <a href=\"http:\/\/www.easyweddings.co.uk\/blogs\/easy-weddings-blog\/general\/10-secret-london-venues\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">venue<\/a> for both the ceremony and reception, and guests didn\u2019t need to travel between the two.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As well as being able to invite their loved ones to a venue most would have never been to before, Louise said they were able to organise most elements through the college. The bride\u2019s advice for other newlyweds-to-be is to make sure you don\u2019t miss out on the wonderful things you arrange. \u201cDue to chatting and dancing too much I totally missed the cheese tower being brought out, and managed not to even see the magician or canapes!\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>Photos courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.photographyatlightworks.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\"
