Although it’s hard to believe, Nicola Hughes and Charlie Tupper organised their wedding in just six weeks. From the idyllic venue to the breathtaking floral arrangements, the day was perfect from start to finish.
The couple had originally planned to tie the knot in France, but when their venue had to cancel all their August weddings due to the pandemic, former Made In Chelsea star Nicola was determined to make their nuptials happen here instead.
“It was a little hectic but we made it happen in the end! I think it was meant to be,” says Nicola, 31. Their big day took place at Botleys Mansion in Surrey on Saturday 21 August in front of 108 guests, including Nicola’s former MIC co-stars Tiffany Watson, who was a bridesmaid, her sister Lucy Watson and Lucy’s fiancé James Dunmore. Model Lottie Moss – half-sister to Kate – also attended the wedding.
The ceremony started just after 4pm, with Nicola being walked down the aisle by her father Des to the sound of Christina Perri’s A Thousand Years on the piano.
And the Irish-born model, who looked beautiful in a Bon Bridé dress, admits seeing Charlie, 32, at the end of the aisle made her “burst into tears”. Meanwhile, business owner Charlie smiled, “She looked so beautiful.”
Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed canapés and drinks while being entertained by a singer and pianist, before sitting down to a three-course wedding breakfast consisting of saffron prawns on a bed of tomatoes, slow-cooked beef and an apple and raspberry crumble. They were also treated to an impressive four-tier cake made of carrot, chocolate, lemon and red velvet layers.
