NOW weddings have officially been given the green-light to resume, The Mail is reminiscing on some of its favourite themed weddings, ranging from Peaky Blinders to the casino.<\/p>\n
Among these was Sarah Woodall, a teaching assistant and Matthew Caulfield, an electrician, who said I do in a gin-and-tea themed ceremony held at the Dunes Hotel in Barrow.<\/p>\n
The pair, who both live in Dalton, first met through mutual friends in 2010, who set them up on Facebook.<\/p>\n
Mrs Caulfield described the wedding as amazing and absolutely perfect.<\/p>\n
I wish we could just do it all again, she said.<\/p>\n
Everything went perfect - I remember dancing all night.<\/p>\n
\"Everyone was just having the best time.\"<\/p>\n
Mrs Caulfield described the wedding as vintage, gin-and-tea themed with a twist.<\/p>\n
The cake was amazing it had a theme of G&T with a twist, Mrs Caulfield said.<\/p>\n
There was gin with cups of tea on the cake because I love tea and gin.\"<\/p>\n
Another wedding-themed favourite was BAE workers, Holly Lloyd and David Thompson who had a Casino-themed reception at the Daffodil Hotel in Grasmere.<\/p>\n
Mrs Thompson described the day as an 'absolute whirlwind'.<\/p>\n
She said: \"We wanted to get married outside but it was raining.<\/p>\n
\"A special highlight of the day was definitely the casino.<\/p>\n
\"There were three blackjack tables which everyone really enjoyed.<\/p>\n
\"It went down a hoot.<\/p>\n
\"We even had fake money which had the bank of Mr and Mrs Thompson printed on it.<\/p>\n
\"And the winners received personalised champagne bottles.<\/p>\n
\"We loved it because it was a quite unique idea.\"<\/p>\n
Finally, Shirley Laurie and John Lyne caught everyone's attention when they decided to tie the knot with a very unique theme: The Peaky Blinders.<\/p>\n
The couple, who met on popular dating site Plenty of Fish,tied the knot in a Peaky Blinders 1920s-themed wedding.<\/p>\n
The male guests donned flat caps and Tweed suits whilst the women styled flapper dresses and feather boas.<\/p>\n
Mrs Lyne said: \"I love 1920s fashion. I love Tweed and flapper dresses so thought why not include it in the wedding?<\/p>\n
\"Most people wore a more formal outfit for the day then changed into a 1920s outfit for the evening do.<\/p>\n
\"It was absolutely great. Everyone seemed to love it.\"<\/p>\n
Mrs Lynes two beloved pugs also played a part in the big day.<\/p>\n
It was absolutely fantastic, she said.<\/p>\n
It was very blissful and emotional, it was lovely to see my sons there.\"<\/p>\n
