A Christmas plan, two “wildly generous” bird parties and a legitimate service in London set the scene completely for Alice Liveing and her companion Patrick Murphy’s tale wedding.
Alice started having influence at age 23 after sharing her regular meals electronically, but now she’s all about getting paid, so she’s well-versed in welcoming her supporters into her personal life.

Three wedding gowns
The fitness guru wore a silk Self-Portrait clothing and a waist-cinching coat to her intimate wedding on May 4, but three weeks later she donned two stunning bridal gowns for her “classic English land” second wedding.

The initial pear trees, floral arrangements, and double-height doors from the walled garden blur the lines between the indoor and outdoor spaces inside the courtyard house.
Looking the image of pleasure, Alice wasn’t hide her ear- to- ear grin as she walked backwards down the aisle hand- in- hand with her fresh husband. The wife looked stunning in a custom-made Emma Beaumont wedding dress with a long train, fabric sleeves, and a flat neck.
Alice’s marital look, which she changed up for the evening welcome, was completed by a plain white flower and a cathedral-length veil with lace.
Although her second bridal mini dress was made of equally posh fabric material, it was a more daring choice because it highlighted one of Alice’s biggest anxieties. Alice told HELLO! “I always thought about having arms on both of my clothes because it’s what I’d always wear because I grew up hating my hands.”

I was having the time of my life on my wedding day because I was so pleased with the finished product that I didn’t even think about how my arms looked.
‘Tricky ‘ marital shoes
Over a year was spent searching for her marriage garments, but she acknowledged that the hardest part was finding her wedding shoes.
“I went to Emma’s studio in Manchester eight days in a row, each day staying for at least four days while the dress was pin and altered on me,” she said.
When it came to her second pair of shoes, which could have served as her “anything old,” Alice was very organized. I was really organized and no organized at all, shoes-wise. My primary dress, which I painfully purchased before Paddy and I were actually engaged, was paired with my marriage shoes.
I saw the Jimmy Choo crystal boots and fell in love with them because I only knew we would finally get married. I was so drawn to the style and aesthetic of the shoes that I knew I had to wear them, but I had no idea what kind of clothing I would end up wearing.
“For the next dress, my shoes were a little more challenging. I placed several orders for the wrong pair of Zara shoes before making a anxiety purchase a few days before my marital fitting. They were so cozy and perfect with my dress that I decided I didn’t need to look further and spend my time finding anything else,” she said.
Personal wedding moments
After explaining that her family is a “private home,” Alice was unable to avoid posting her heartfelt bridal dress reveal on Instagram with her father. In a private behind-the-scenes time, the bride’s father looked silent as he bundled her into his hands for a close hug.

About a month prior, I sat down to write my vows, and I did so in a proper manner. To say them in front of all our friends and family felt difficult, but after a couple great deep breaths, I managed to get them out without crying, although my words did tilt a lot”, she confessed.
Paddy had a small break during his conversation, which was very special, despite being a little more composed than I was.
Marriage ideas
The pair, who started dating in 2016 after meeting through a dating software, concluded that their marriage “fulfilled every one vision” and would not have been possible without the help of “invaluable” marriage organizer Alice Wilkes.
Fitness expert Alice shared her advice for other brides and grooms by sharing her advice with other brides and grooms. “We had a routine for the day mapped out around a year before, with dates for everything from how to make our bread to when to do our first party.”
“Whilst it might seem a small radical, when you’re having fun and have had a dozen coffee, it can be easy for the day to run away with you.”
