TITLE R Real Wedding Helen and Andy Helen and Andy met in 2007, at the Architect’s practice where they both worked. Helen was a PA, and Andy was the “handsome year-out student”! The couple got engaged in November 2011, during a holiday to the Cotswolds with Helen’s parents. Andy made sure to ask permission from Helen’s parents first, and then decided to pop the question at seven in the morning; so the couple celebrated with a cup of tea! The lovely Dodmoor House in Weedon was their venue of choice, and they got hitched on 21st June 2013. They hoped their wedding would become a series of stress-free tasks that they genuinely wanted to enjoy. Helen’s role as a PA means that she is very organised, and she approached wedding planning in the same way. They just wanted a casual day, and tried to minimise formality as much as possible. www.dottyvintageweddings.co.uk 44 Issue1
