Wedding Dress Prize Winner Announced

Cheryl, based in Hertfordshire, has just won our UKbride Power User prize - a dress, hairpiece and veil courtesy of Adele Laurent! She is engaged to Vincent Tirthdas and has been for a year with a beautiful engagement story...

 

He proposed to me on 9th October 2014,” says Cheryl. “He suggested, as we were in the area, to drive to Blenheim Palace. We had a lovely walk around the Palace and then he treated me to lunch and champagne.”

“In the gift shop I told him to help me find a really unique piece of jewellery, to which I didn't find anything I liked, we bought a few souvenirs and then we had a beautiful walk in the gardens, and as we got closer to the column of victory over looking the landscape of Blenheim Palace and the lakes, he got down on one knee whilst saying he knew I was after a really unique piece of jewellery. He opened the ring box and proposed, to which I said yes!”

“It's honestly the most beautiful and unique ring! Every time I look at it I smile! He had bought it weeks ago and was waiting for the perfect time to propose. He was worried all day I may feel it in his pocket, but I was honestly clueless! Before leaving we went into the gift shop again and bought a few bottles of champagne with Blenheim Palace on the label. We decided to keep them for our wedding day.”

“We'd been together nearly nine years then so had always known one day we'll marry. Soon after finding the perfect ring he proposed. We enjoyed our engagement over the winter months and had our engagement party for only a small group of close friends and family on the 25th July, where I asked my bridesmaids to be my bridesmaids.”

“Planning for the wedding is going great I'm really enjoying it all, my tip would be to be organised with finances and definitely join websites such as UKbride because they help you with ideas and to find local businesses!”

“But most importantly, it's great to just ask questions to other busy planning brides. We have our wedding insurance, venue, photographer, table centers, florist, and rings…but NO dress! So I am really over the moon to win a dream dress from Adele Laurent. I've got my eye on a few dresses, and can't wait to find the one. What a great phone call to receive on 1st December 2015. Thank you so much to everyone involved.”
