Kayleigh wins £500 wedding album | UKbride

"I am an administrator for an FE college and Craig is a mechanical engineer for a train line. We live in Solihull, West Midlands in our own home. We first met at a BBQ about 14/15 years ago and became friends and then few years later we got together."

"Craig and I have been together for 11 years and in October 2017 whilst on holiday in Thailand he proposed . We were staying on the Phi Phi island at the time, we had been for dinner then we took a stroll along the beach front. We found a nice spot to sit down where we shared a few drinks and was listening to music whilst chatting away then all of sudden he asked me to close my eyes and when I opened them again there he was on one knee with a ring in his hand asking me to marry him. I cried so much (happy tears of course) because it was so unexpected and once I got over the initial shock eventually said YES!"

"Planning the wedding has been really easy and enjoyable so far I haven't yet had any bridzilla moments which I'm sure Craig and my bridal party are pleased about.  I helped my best friend plan her wedding in 2017 so I sort of had an idea of how I would do my own if ever I had the opportunity. Also with platforms such as UK Bride where you can liaise with other brides planning their weddings too and being able to source suppliers for competitive quotes and ideas is really helpful"

"When I got the call to say I had won the competition I was a bit taken aback and didn't quite no what was going on. I was currently in bed as I was feeling unwell and hadn't gone to work. Now I have had time to process it all i'm over the moon. I've never won anything before but to win something that will be a lovely keepsake of our special day is absolutely amazing and I am just so happy and thankful."

"I do enjoy using UK Bride. it's a good forum for brides alike to share their information, experiences and planning ideas and also source suppliers. I first signed up to UK bride when I got engaged and although I knew roughly what I wanted for my big day I still used it to share my own ideas and experiences with other brides as well as take on there points of view as well. "

Well Done Kayleigh!
