* We're doing safari and beach for the main honeymoon, but later in the year when it's a better time for it. Straight after the wedding we're doing a week at a hotel in the Lake District that we adore and have been to for a holiday for the last two Junes:

Our regular room there:

They have an amazing chef and the food is probably our favourite we've had anywhere. I think it'll be really relaxing to go somewhere familiar after the wedding day, and we'll still have the excitement of the big honeymoon to come0 -
