Stephen and Veryan
...and so we come to a wedding which is about as far removed from 'traditional' as you could possibly get. I met them at their fabulous city centre apartment in Manchester when they told me what to expect. They were to get married in T-Shirt and Flip-Flops and then get changed for the blessing in the afternoon. Stephen's a mad Ian Brown and Oasis fan so I was to expect live music from one of the best covers bands on the circuit. Black and Red were to be the accent colours. (Check out socks and confetti). Every detail had been meticulously planned including a giant slab of chocolate! Why? Why not said Stephen. Fair enough. I knew to expect something rather special when I arrived at HAZLEWOOD CASTLE last Saturday at around 8.30am - I left After Midnight with a huge grin on my face. I wasn't the only one who had a good time.
