It started with a sting ! That led us to the White Hart pub in Crystal Palace. Maurizio walked in, and Laura greeted him with a cheerful wave and a big “Hiya!” — instantly breaking the ice. Ever the gentleman, Maurizio offered to buy the first round and waddled off to the bar… which is when Laura couldn’t help but notice his very impressive bum. From there, it was hours of chatting (and deciphering each other’s accents), non-stop laughter, and even a little bop on the dance floor..

Fast-forward a year: they were living under one roof, sharing keys, making each other laugh daily, and failing to choose a rug for the flat (they ordered six… and returned them all).. Three years later, Maurizio didn’t get down on one knee — but he did ask Laura to get old with him .Boom and here we are — about to tie the knot in beautiful Puglia, surrounded by the people we love, ready for a lifetime of adventure, playlists, and laughter.
