Nancy & Johnny’s big day had finally arrived, and the air at No.1 The Mansions in London was buzzing with excitement.

The atmosphere was far from the traditional wedding jitters; it was more of a lively pre-celebration party.

Nancy and her squad’s cab journey from No.1 The Mansions to her ceremony at The Old Marylebone Town Hall was somewhat an adventure.

Nothing like a bit of excitement on route to say I do!
