Wanting our colour theme to match our personalities we thought that this could not be represented by just one colour, but by the whole rainbow with all different shades. In addition, it&nbsp;symbolised&nbsp;that we had found in each&nbsp;other the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. We also had the song over the rainbow as our song walking back down the aisle as man and wife which tied in perfectly. With the 2 bridesmaids matching the two groomsmen in bright orange and yellow, my ivory lacy dress and <span class=\"il\">Alex<\/span>&lsquo;s simple grey suit we feel added a bit of class, in contrast to my amazing rainbow bouquet and buttonhole to match.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-547493\"

Moments:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Jess:&nbsp;<em>My favourite moment was the walk down the aisle clutching my dads arm to find my man waiting for me with tears and a smile, summed up the happiness of how we were all feeling! My mothers speech where she also read a heartfelt letter written by my absent Grampa and Nan offered our wedding a personal touch.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"il\">Alex:<\/span>&nbsp;<em>It has to be Jess walking down the aisle, in a dress that was the complete opposite style to what I had thought and more beautiful than I could have imagined! On par with the happiness of Jess walking down the aisle, my second surprise was in the form of a song introduced by my new in-laws for our first dance. A song recorded by Jess, a gift just for me, that no-one else will ever have their first dance to.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Couple Recommends:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>We would highly recommend the amazing Chris Barroccu Photographer for all the brilliant shots he got of us. All day he was on the ball, creating a perfect story book of our day, capturing it all. He was so passionate about his work and our wedding that he looked like he was doing pilates just to get the shot perfect, his commitment was second to none! <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>We would also highly recommend going abroad to tie the not, the wedding planning and the whole day was organised for us, with minimal fuss or effort on our behalf. We could not have asked for a better resort or more attentive staff (especially Jodie and Orla) than at Olympic Lagoon Resort, Nissi Beach.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Wedding Team:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photography &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.chrisbarroccu.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Chris Barroccu<\/a><br>\nEvent Planning &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kanikahotels.com\/Olympic-Lagoon-Resort--Ayia-Napa\" target=\"_blank\">Olympic Lagoon Resort<\/a><br>\nVenue &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kanikahotels.com\/Olympic-Lagoon-Resort--Ayia-Napa\" target=\"_blank\">Olympic Lagoon Resort<\/a><br>\nFloral Design &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kanikahotels.com\/Olympic-Lagoon-Resort--Ayia-Napa\" target=\"_blank\">Olympic Lagoon Resort<\/a><br>\nWedding Dress &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/lauramaybridal.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Laura May Bridal<\/a><br>\nBridal Accessories &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rainbowclub.co.uk\/about-us\" target=\"_blank\">Rainbow Club<\/a> (shoes)<br>\nBridesmaids&rsquo; Apparel &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jjshouse.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">JJ&rsquo;s House<\/a><br>\nGroom&rsquo;s Apparel &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.next.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Next<\/a><br>\nGroomsmen&rsquo;s Apparel &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.next.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Next<\/a><br>\nRings &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hsamuel.co.uk\/webstore\/l\/jewellery\/category%7Crings\/occasion%7Cwedding\/#\" target=\"_blank\">H.
