FIONA AND FABIO: Real Elizabeth Kate Bride Wearing Rebecca Ingram Vesta Wedding Dress

Real Elizabeth Kate bride wearing Rebecca Ingram wedding dress


How did you two meet?

We met years ago as we went to the same high school and used to get the same school bus. We used to chat on MSN and I always fancied Fabio. We matched on tinder in 2018 but I’d deleted my account before we got chance to talk. Fabio messaged me on Facebook and asked me out on a date and we’ve been inseparable ever since. He even cancelled his 2 week holiday to the Dominican Republic to spend more time with me before I went to Spain for the summer to work.


What about the proposal, how did it go?

Fabio proposed on Halloween in York. We had been going every year and it’s one of our favourite times of year. Fabio put the ring in the bottom of a mini cauldron and proposed in the hotel room. It was perfect.



Tell us about your venue.

We got married at our local church which holds many memories for both of our families. The reception venue was Whitley Hall Hotel in Sheffield. It was perfect. I loved the elegance and old timey feel of it all as soon as we walked in. The food was incredible and the organisation of the whole day was amazing.


What was your wedding style/inspo?

The inspiration was always for it to be classic with a hint of Bridgeton which I think was really pulled off with the flowers and colours we used. I also loved bows and pearls on my dress and tried to incorporate them into the decor as well.


Tell us about your dress!

I tried on 34 dresses total and didn’t think I was going to get the teary eyed “this is the one” until I tried on this Rebecca Ingram wedding dress. It was the classic style I was wanting but the gorgeous fabric was like nothing I had ever seen before and it was that little bit of different that I wanted.



What was your favourite part of your wedding day?

Other than marrying my best friend and having all our family around us. My favourite had to be the surprise Abba tribute that my mum had arranged to come on after the speeches. I am a massive ride or die Mamma Mia fan and having my own personal concert with all my favourite songs was incredible and got people on the dance floor the whole night.


Any changes? (Things you wish you’d done or wish you hadn’t!)

The day was perfect and there’s nothing I would change at all!



Any tips for brides to be?

I am probably the most control freak person ever and putting my trust into other people to make my vision come to life was really scary and I stressed and worried about it far more than I should have. My tip is to trust your suppliers. You’re paying them a lot of money for a reason and they know what they’re doing! Everything will be perfect and even if something isn’t, the people around you and your husband to be are all that matter and you will have an amazing day. Just enjoy it!
