BAILDON BRIDE-TO-BE
WINS £10,000 WEDDING PRIZE AT BRIDAL SHOW
Baildon bride-to-be Louise Burke walked away with a gem of a prize for her big day when she visited the North's largest and most prestigious wedding show, Yorkshire Brides, this weekend. Louise, who went along to the show with her mum, Angela Copley and mother-in-law to be Catherine Bestwick, bought the winning ticket holding the correct combination which unlocked a Diamond Safe housing a £500 diamond and a £10,000 wedding package.
Yorkshire Brides, which celebrates its 10th anniversary of running this successful wedding show in Harrogate, invited a selection of its exhibitors to donate a bridal product or service to mark its trading milestone. Louise and her fiance Adam Bestwick won everything for their big day, apart from the venue. The couple will also be featured in a real life wedding spread in the Yorkshire Brides magazine.
Louise, who is the manager and proprietor of a tile and bathroom company, Mosaic and Adam, director of a prestige cars sales business, www.nicheconcept.com, met six and a half years ago at a friend's birthday party. Adam got down on one knee in June 2006, when he proposed to Louise at a restaurant in Marbella. The couple will tie the knot in the Big Apple on May 30 next year with around 40 guests at the Tavern on the Green restaurant in Central Park, New York.
Commenting on the win, Louise said: “I was absolutely shocked to have the winning ticket for this amazing prize. It still hasn't really sunk in. I never dreamed of walking away with £10,000 to spend on my wedding day. This really means so much as it will give us the opportunity to make our planned event in the UK for friends and family who can't make it to New York even bigger and better. Both Adam and I are so thrilled and would like to thank Yorkshire Brides for giving us this gem of a wedding prize.”
