I met Craig when we were sixteen and working at the local McDonald's. I went off to De Montfort University in Leicester for three years to do a degree in Accounting and Finance. When I graduated we bought our first house together. We have been together for almost thirteen years (this December).
Craig proposed in September 2008, we had booked a holiday to Cuba but due to a hurricane the holiday was cancelled (on the way to the airport), we ended up going to Kos at the last minute, Craig had planned to propose on a day trip we took to a local island which was a volcano, but didn't because I felt ill from the smell of the sulphur. He proposed that night and we were married at the Best Western Rockingham Forest hotel in Corby on 14 May 2011.
Our bridesmaids were our sisters Robyn and Lorraine.
The wedding day was everything we hoped for. We went to the Maldives on honeymoon and spent the most amazing two weeks there, sunbathing, leaning to play golf on the driving range, having a moonlit dinner on the beach, watching crab racing and going on a sunset cruise to watch dolphins. I am an Accountant and Craig is a medical engineer.
