are\u00a0the ingredients of\u00a0a wonderful Christmas wedding.<\/p>\n<p>Helen Cahill, 39, had always dreamed of a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.easyweddings.co.uk\/blogs\/easy-weddings-blog\/keeping-warm-during-those-crisp-winter-weddings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christmas wedding<\/a> and that dream came true when she married Jason Cuthbert, 40, on December 29, 2014.<\/p>\n<p>The couple wed in front of 72 guests at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.easyweddings.co.uk\/WeddingVenues\/Oxfordshire\/PhyllisCourt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Phyllis Court<\/a> on the River Thames. \u201cPhyllis Court Club is a private member&#8217;s club sitting on the finish line of the world famous Henley Royal Regatta,\u201d explains Helen.<\/p>\n<p>The pair were married underneath the mistletoe on the top deck before braving the cold for group shots with guests.\u00a0\u201cWe stole some moments away together with a cruise up the river in the golden hour before sunset \u2014 some treasured time alone during the excitement of the day,\u201d smiles Helen.<\/p>\n<p>At the reception, also at Phyllis Court, the newlyweds paid special tribute to their loved ones. \u201cThe wedding cake was displayed with vintage photographs of our grandparents&#8217; and parents&#8217; weddings from the 1930s through to the 1970s,\u201d explains Helen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChristmas has always been a special time, but now memories of our special day make it even more magical.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Photos courtesy of
