decoration quite simple and elegant. We chose a colour pallet of ivory, blush and pale peach to blend in with the gorgeous natural surroundings.&nbsp;<\/em><em>Our theme was loosely based on travel as our parents all hail from different countries. The tables were named after countries that hold meaning to us and on every table there were interesting facts about the country.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Music was also very important to us and for every aspect of the day we chose songs that hold meaning to us. My bridal entrance was to Michael Jackson&rsquo;s &lsquo;I Just Can&rsquo;t Stop Loving You&rsquo;, played on a baby grand piano. Our first date was to a Michael Jackson musical. Our guests really appreciated how much effort was put into the music and sang and danced throughout the wedding breakfast, even before the dance floor was open!<br>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>For our wedding day fashion we both wanted a modern look. My dress was the second dress I tried on, it just felt right. It was form fitting and had a touch of sexiness. <span class=\"il\">Jay&nbsp;<\/span>had his suit made bespoke in a renowned tailor in Dubai, as a special touch he had our initials and wedding date embroidered inside. It made it that extra bit more special.<\/em>&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530075\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/9e\/5f\/9e5f779507c80ee3_w1000.avif\" alt=\"Sabrina-Jay-Nick-Murray-Photography-19\" width=\"600\" height=\"898\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530076\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/97\/cc\/97cc0a2ba31d2a82_w1000.avif\" alt=\"Sabrina-Jay-Nick-Murray-Photography-20\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530077\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/0e\/3c\/0e3c04ce2b026b40_w1000.avif\" alt=\"Sabrina-Jay-Nick-Murray-Photography-21\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530086\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/79\/67\/7967d6b3c4930527_w1000.avif\" alt=\"Sabrina-Jay-Nick-Murray-Photography-30\" width=\"600\" height=\"898\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530087\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/2b\/81\/2b8169834512a27c_w1000.avif\" alt=\"Sabrina-Jay-Nick-Murray-Photography-31\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530091\" src=\"https:\/\/images.junebugweddings.com\/39\/1c\/391c8a2c18aad4da_w1000.avif\" alt=\"Sabrina-Jay-Nick-Murray-Photography-35\" width=\"600\" height=\"508\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Wedding Team:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photography &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nickmurrayphotography.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Nick Murray Photography<\/a><br>\nVenue &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oldwallsgower.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Oldwalls Gower<\/a><br>\nFloral Design &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.emmaarnold.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Exclusively by Emma Arnold<\/a><br>\nDJ &ndash;&nbsp;DJ Veejay<br>\nHair Styling &ndash;&nbsp;&ndash;&nbsp;Ann McCormack<br>\nWedding Dress &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/allaboutevebridalwear.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">All About Eve Bridalwear<br>\n<\/a>Groom&rsquo;s Apparel &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kachinsdubai.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Kachins Dubai<\/a><br>\nGroomsmen&rsquo;s Apparel &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.7clothing.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">7 Clothing<br>\n<\/a>Rings &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/carajewellers.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Cara Jewellers<\/a><br>\nFavors &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lego.com\/en-us\/\" target=\"_blank\">Lego<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sabrina and Jay&rsquo;s celebration impeccably balances contemporary elements while remaining warm and colorful, which seems to perfectly capture their relationship.
