Ruth and Richard tied the knot surrounded by loved ones at Zinnia Gardens

Ruth and Richard met at work. “He was my duty manager, and I worked in the kitchen,” says Ruth. “We both love food, and my mastery of the bacon, egg and sausage butty must have swayed him towards me.”

Richard popped the question during a romantic evening at home. “We were watching a live Meatloaf concert in the living room while snuggling on the sofa,” shares the bride. “About halfway through I’d Do Anything For Love, he asked me to marry him. I was in complete shock and remember telling him he was a jerk for surprising me like that. I then hugged him and said ‘yes’ over and over again. He got down on one knee a few weeks later, and we picked the perfect ring together.”
