Leigh and Gavin had an initimate wedding at the end of August in San Gimignano.
The couple write:
Dear Luce and Ben,
Gavin and I want to send our thanks to you both for making our wedding day an experience we will never forget. We didn't have long to plan it (12 weeks) but then I suppose having a small number of guests always helps! Our family had an amazing day as well and we had the chilled out and relaxed wedding that we both wanted. It was a shame that we didn't get to meet you face to face Ben, however that also meant that we got to meet the wonderful Luce. She put us both at ease from the moment we met her on the steps of the Duomo on the wednesday before the wedding. It was an honour to have her there on our special day.
My father in law says he shall never forget the moment we turned into Piazza della Cisterna and the crowds turned to see us approach in our little red car, and I think I agree. They clapped and wished me good luck in Italian as we drove through - it was a magical experience and something I will never forget. Gavin and I had to laugh when our photographer pointed out that we were being followed by the 'papparazzo'. I think we must be in many holiday photographs and felt like celebrities as we were snapped as we wandered the streets.
Our wedding day was even more amazing than we had imagined, so thank you both for helping us make it so perfect.
Best wishes and heartfelt thanks,
Leigh & Gavin
