Emilie's stunning dress featured delicate lace with a figure-hugging silhouette and fishtail skirt. "We know an amazing seamstress called Sonya who works at Puure Bride, so I went into see what they could do with my mum’s old wedding dress, because I had fallen in love with it," Emilie says.

"Seeing her in her dress, veil, hair and make-up was the most incredible thing," says Kym. "She's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen."

I'd run it over in my head a million times."
