Couple: Daisy and Michael Pratt
Date: 4th February, 2011
Venue: Chilston Park, Lenham
Colour scheme: Lavender and light grey

Daisy and Michael enjoyed an intimate day at Chilston Park in Lenham with their loved ones. The day before their wedding, Michael's grandmother, June, took Daisy to one side and gave her a card and envelope which had belonged to her mother, Ivy. June explained Ivy shared the same birthday and wedding date as Daisy. The couple felt this was a sign that her and Michael were meant to be.

Daisy on...
Marriage: The best thing about being married is the feeling of being part of a team. Since our wedding, we also have the added excitement of starting our own family and we couldn't be happier.

Anniversary celebrations: I'm hoping for a bunch of lilac spray roses similar to those we had for our wedding. I absolutely loved them and I often find myself sneaking a peek at the photos just to remind myself of them. We're also hoping to organise a stay back at our venue, but we'll need to book a family room as we'll have our new addition by then.

Making it to the final: We're both so pleased! To have others voting for our wedding is such an amazing feeling. We're also happy we can show the magazine to our family and friends in years to come.

Why they should win: We wanted to create a special experience for our loved ones and hopefully give them a day to remember just as much as we would. To be named as the overall winners would be such an honour.

Marriage: The best thing about married life is knowing we'll be together for the rest of our lives. Marriage was a natural progression for us based upon a deep and meaningful friendship which has gone from strength to strength. We're both always there for each other through thick and thin and we feel confident to deal with whatever the future holds.

Anniversary celebrations: I'm not sure what we'll be doing as David has planned a surprise for me.

Making it to the final: We're both surprised we've made it to the grand final. Our photographer entered us into the competition and we're so glad we have come this far. We've really enjoyed being in the magazine and it's a great memento to show our grandchildren in the future.

Why they should win: Our venue was beautiful and the snow made it look even more picturesque and romantic. With the help of our friends, family and suppliers everything came together.

Couple: Layla and Jesse O'Reilly
Date: 7th May, 2011
Ceremony venue: Hoo St Werburgh Parish Church, Rochester
Reception venue: Cooling Castle Barn, Rochester
Colour scheme: Baby pink and ivory

Layla and Jesse had a traditional church ceremony, followed by a reception at Cooling Castle Barn in Rochester. The couple enjoyed planning their day and meeting suppliers and were thrilled with the results. They were also very appreciative of all the effort everyone made to share their special day with them.

Layla on...
Marriage: I love referring to Jesse as my husband and that I have taken his surname. I think it's the best feeling in the world knowing I am going to spend every day with my best friend.

Anniversary celebrations: We're lucky this year as our anniversary falls on a bank holiday weekend. We're going to go Gordon Ramsay's restaurant where we had our first date, and we'll have a family celebration as well. It'll be great to have everyone together, and the photos and video of our wedding will make an appearance too, I'm sure.

Making it to the final: Getting this far in the competition is exciting for us and our families. However, the best part is the fact that we keep thinking of how brilliant our day was and how much fun we had.

Why they should win: We both feel we put so much effort in and thought into organising our wedding to make sure it ran smoothly. We would love to win as it's these special touches that made our wedding the day it was.

Anniversary celebrations: For our first wedding anniversary we're planning to go on holiday with the kids, somewhere warm and sunny. It's also my birthday four days before our anniversary so we'll have to celebrate that too.

Making it to the final: We were ecstatic. I found out while I was in the middle of Christmas shopping, and I instantly called Aiden.

Why they should win: We're a down to earth couple and we worked really hard to make our wedding day fun and quirky for all of our guests. Winning would be the icing on the cake for us.
