The vibe, we would say, was sophisticated and romantic, yet still so original and edgy. All of our guests said it was us in decor, us in detail and us in the feeling. People told us they fell in love again at our wedding. We wanted our love and vibes to really be felt by everyone - and to get into the souls of our friends and family. That is exactly what happened! The styling was us to a T. Expensive yet uniquely Cherelle and Lara, down to the little details. We also had our flare, our fun and our energy from start to finish from music and photographers to our bridal party.
Black-tie lesbian wedding at Grittleton House
Our favourite moment of the day had to be when we announced we were having a son! And the photos outside in Grittleton House with our friends and family. Some smiling, some fun and goofy, some serious faces... We also used champagne sprays - just like us - tasty but silly. And the obvious moment - when we both got to pour our hearts and souls into each other during our vows, in front of all the people we love. Our first dance was brilliant - not typical and slow, either. We danced to Afro beats and enjoyed ourselves. Even being 7 months pregnant didn't stop my wife. Plus, I surprised her and everyone with fireworks at the end.
What made our day unique? After rounds of RIVF, my wife was finally pregnant with our son and she was 7 months pregnant on the big day. Covid stopped it from happening 2 years prior, and we're so, so glad it ended up this way. Because now our little family was there on our big day. We announced during the speeches that we were having a boy! Also, we were the 1st interracial Lesbian couple to ever get married at the venue. We wore what we wanted, not what was expected of us.
