Natalie Williamson and Jamie Rogers
Sam and I met when we were just 14 years old; seven years later we are engaged and ready to spend the rest of our lives together and live the dreams we’ve planned for so long. Things like this just don’t happen to us! It really would mean the world.

For the past six years of horrific events I’ve been through, 2014 has brought me love and happiness. I couldn’t have thanked my fiancé any more for getting me back on my feet. Words cannot describe how much we love each other and he is doing a fantastic job of taking on me and my three children; most men would run a mile, but not him. We have been together two months, which has been the most amazing time of our lives.
Dawn Humphries and Samuel Andrews
Lauren Minchella and Lee Muttram
Hayley Adams and Lee Teale
My fiancé asked me to marry him on Valentine’s Day 2012; we have been trying to save up for our wedding ever since but little things keep popping up and costing us more then we expected. Winning this means everything to us as getting married would complete our little family.
We crossed paths many times over the years and never met; when we finally did we knew we were meant to be together. We could never afford our dream wedding so to win this would make our dreams come true. Marrying each other’s best friend and becoming husband and wife.

Chloe Sunderland and Darren Gill
Carilanne Laubscher and Gary Torr
I served with the British Army for six years, spent six months in Afghanistan and six months in the Falkland Islands, therefore my life had been on hold. I then met the woman I wanted to marry, so I believe it was fate that bought us together.
We’d love to win because it’d take years to save for the perfect day with memories to last a lifetime. We were going to try get married this year on a very low budget but as we’re expecting again we put it off to try save for a better wedding.
THX-E01-S3
We would love to win this competition because we really want to get married and would love to do in style with our family there and everything in this competition will make our wedding a dream. We have two kids and they will love to see mummy and daddy getting married in a fairytale way.
Matt is the missing part of my puzzle, he always puts me and our two children first. Any wedding plans we had got put on hold after our daughter was in hospital after being diagnosed with diabetes. Getting married would be the icing on the cake to make us a complete family unit.

We’ve been together for 13 years and I have never been able to afford to give Leah the perfect day that she deserves. All I’ve ever wanted for Leah and our three daughters is happiness; one perfect day will provide a lifetime of memories.
We met four years ago after meeting in school and fell in love. My dad has been diagnosed with cancer and has been given 18 months to live. We would love to win the wedding, taking the financial burden off my family and allowing my dad to give me away.

Ashley Hill and Kris Stanley
Sara Palmer and Nigel Roberts
Kris’s grandad is very poorly and lives in Cambridge. He will not be able to travel soon. Kris is his only grandson and they share a special bond. This would make him happy. We cannot afford a wedding before his time comes as we are expecting another child.
To marry is a lifetime commitment but to marry a lover, soulmate and best friend is a lifetime dream and after a 13year engagement, a mortgage, two beautiful children and a 13-year-long desire to be Mrs Roberts, to win a dream wedding would be a dream come true.

Abigail Matthewman and Gary Scotchmer
Kerry-Anne Almond and Aaron Gill
Pentillie Castle, well what can we say, We fell in love with it straight away. We have our own home, little girl and boy, But to get married here would fill us with joy. We believe we were destined to meet, To win this wedding would make us complete.
I would like to win a dream wedding because me and my fiance have something special and if we could get married tomorrow we would. He was my first kiss and now he’s my soul mate and to be married to him would be a dream come true by itself.

Kayleigh BamfordStokes and Matt Vickery
We love each other so much after nine years and a daughter we both would find it a dream to be able to tie the knot and everyone who knows us would agree it’s time we got married. It would be a dream.
We have been together since the tender age of 14 and gone through everything together which I feel has given us a solid relationship. If we were to win it would mean I could marry my childhood sweetheart after 14 years.

It was definitely love at first sight. Now we have finally found what we were both looking for, we would love nothing more than to celebrate our love and commitment for each other in front of our amazing friends and family.
We have been together for nearly three years again, all in all eight years of relationships as we are childhood sweethearts. Now we are ready to tie the knot.

We’re on a budget and would love any help possible.

I would love to win this wedding to put a smile back on Tracy’s face after so much heartbreak of losing her parents and to share our love with family and make some new wonderful memories together. She deserves to get married in a castle as she is my princess.
We’re a fun-loving couple together for over eight years and love each other more than ever. We’ve had to work hard for all we have, it would be the most amazing start to the rest of our lives together to win this dream day.

Claire Harrison and Carl Rice
Miranda Mills and Andy Berry
After having a difficult time I finally met Carl again at a school reunion and we’ve been together for five years. It was love at first sight and getting married would mean the world to us and our family as we would never be able to afford a dream wedding.
Have waited a long time for the right man to finally arrive and he has outshone any other man. He has been stoically by my side since being rediagnosed with a serious illness and remains by my side.

We would love to win as we can’t wait to get married; we’ve had many adventures together and are so excited to start the next chapter in our lives. We are saving to buy our first home together so this would make our dream wedding become a reality.
I never though I would be so lucky to be marrying my soul mate. I am the happiest girl alive. I have visited Pentillie before and find it beautiful and my dream wedding location.

Firstly it’s free and I met him in school, took him to prom, separated and three years later we are about to get married and have a child, as we bumped into each other in Oceana.
We are lovely people with much love for each other and it would mean the world to us.

In October, while climbing Kilimanjaro for Help for Heroes, Neil asked permission from my parents to marry me. He did a 12-day surprise present leading up to Christmas and popped the question after cooking Christmas lunch. Now I would like to surprise him in return by winning a wedding.
We would like to win this wedding as we would love for our son to have traditionally married parents and bring him up with traditional family values. As we are currently trying to save for our first home it seems unrealistic to hope for a wedding in the near future.

Samantha Stewartson and Adrian Ward
Jenna Farnington and Mike Neal
We’ve been engaged for five years and we are not yet ready to set a date. We have a year in mind but because of my fiance not having a job it’s hard to save. Not even moved out of home yet.
I don’t need 50 words, I need three: “I love you.”

Childhood sweethearts! We have been together for ten years and would love to celebrate this by becoming Mr and Mrs Brittin. Hayley is a paediatric nurse and Scott a salesman. 2013 was amazing; we bought our first home together and Scott proposed. 2014 would be incredible with a dream wedding!
I really love my wife-to-be and would love to give her the perfect day and I really think she deserves it as she puts up with me.

I’m Tanya, a children’s specialist cancer nurse at Derriford Hospital. I met Paul the window cleaner five years ago on New Year’s Eve in Torpoint. The following New Year in Thailand we talked about getting married and we are still talking about it now!
We would like to win it as we have been together for six years and haven’t yet had the time or money to get married. We have been through a lot over the past six years and just want to call each other husband and wife.

We have been together for 14 years and have two beautiful children together. We have always wanted to get married but having two children and Colin only working at the moment we never have had the money to afford to get the wedding we would love. It would be ours and our children’s dream come true to get married.
We would love to win this dream. We are a couple both working with a child under two living in a rented house, trying to get by. We’re very happily engaged with absolutely no spare funds for a wedding, which is something we are desperate for to complete our family.

Jodie Tapp and Max Parfitt

We always talked about having children and getting married ‘one day’. Well, we have two beautiful daughters and Max now says that a wedding would cost too much! He wouldn’t be able to moan if we won one though, would he? Ha ha. PS: we love each other very much!
We met at midnight, January 31st, 2010. Got engaged Christmas Day 2013. We would love a winter wedding to match. I’ve had gastric surgery privately to improve my health for our future so all savings went on hold. It would be the perfect start to OUR future together.

Roz Savage-Brench and Mark Oliver

We would love to win because we are so in love, both marrying for the third time, so third time lucky. We have never had a large wedding and have both been through lots of heartache; we need a change in luck.
Myself and my partner adore each other. Recently family members have had serious illnesses; this has made us realise what is most important in life. We would love to share our feelings with those who matter to us. Without this prize we would not be able to afford a wedding.

After falling madly in love with Carla I have always wanted to give her the wedding she deserves. We run a local football club and, outside of work, any free time is spent working within schools, with our boys’, girls’, men’s and women’s teams and also with two adult disabled football teams. The thought of a dream wedding for us seems a long way away
Rebekah Kirk and Stuart Hanney
Stacey Parsonage and Thomas Hancock
We have been together nine years now and have two amazing children. We were due to get married in July 2010 but sadly my dad got ill and passed away five months later, so all got put on hold. We are currently clearing debts so are not able to get married yet. This would be the perfect opportunity to finally complete our family.
I really want my mummy and daddy to get married. They are having a baby boy so our family will be complete if they could just get married. Mummy cares for lots of other people’s children in her job so I want to do something special for her.
THX-E01-S3
Me and my partner have been together for 15 years. We have three beautiful children together. Our children always wanted us to get married, but it costs. Winning this would be a dream come true and our family complete. It would make our family the happiest in the world, a dream come true.
I would love to be able to marry the love of my life and father of my two beautiful girls and to be able to have them as part of our special day. We have been engaged for 5.5 years but have never been financially in a position to marry.

After an entire lifetime of searching for my soulmate, he walked into my life on January 6, 2014, and both our lives have been enriched with a love like never before. We have finally found our missing pieces and planned to marry on our anniversary next year.

Sammi James and Luke Atkinson
Jenny Moran and Sean Eveleigh
We have been together for four years. We have just got a mortgage together, so are setting up home. We would really like to get married to complete our relationship. Due to Sammi being on an apprenticeship wage, it would take us ages to save for our dream wedding!

We have been together for a year and a half, living together for a year of that. We are big gamers, me with Xbox 360 and him with the Nintendo. On our anniversary he proposed using Pokemon on his 3DS. With money being scarce we are struggling to get by and we just wish to have our special day with everyone there before it’s too late. Sean’s stepmom and grandad aren’t well and he’s been told that the outlook for them isn’t great. I just want him to have all his family there.
Keri and Craig have been together for seven years and have an amazing son called Riley, aged three years and ten months. On May 15, 2013, came heartbreaking news: Keri had bowel cancer at the age of 24. She’s now eight months post op and a second son is due soon. It would be wonderful to celebrate their wedding with friends and family.

I would like to nominate my son Daniel Williams and his fiancée Gabriela Roberts to win the Dream Wedding. They have both recently returned from travelling in February to announce they had got engaged.

I am longing for grandchildren and hope if they win this wedding it won’t be long before they have children.

We met in Plymouth seven years ago and currently live in Cornwall. To be married at Pentillie Castle and having such an extravagant wedding, being so close to home using local companies, would be more than a dream come true. Please pick us for this more than incredible prize.
Being together is the easiest, most natural thing in the world – we’ve known from the beginning that we were meant to spend our lives together. Winning this wedding will let us celebrate our love for each other and share it with our families and friends.

Georgina Skinner and Stuart Weeks
Jessica Beatson and David Wrench
My fiancée survived cancer in her teens and confirmed clear after 20 years this year. Her mother unfortunately died last year to cancer before we got engaged. Brave, perfect and wonderful, I believe she is so deserving of a princess’s wedding we can dream of. We met on November 5, 2012!
We fell in love four years ago, and have worked hard to do everything we can for our boys. With finance issues we struggle to save any money for our wedding. We feel it’s our turn. If this was to happen for us it would be a dream come true.

Nick and I have been together since 2008. We have been trying to save for a wedding since but with only Nick working, it has been limited. Each time we start to save we fall pregnant! Now our third. I am 100% sure I have found my lover, best friend and soulmate.
We would like to win the prize as this would round off the most fantastic year for us both after splitting up as sweethearts and having no contact after 12 years apart!

Me and Steve have been together for many years; we entered last year’s competition and never really knew how much we wanted to win it. It would be a dream come true to win this prize but I suppose everyone says that. We met at our place of work and moved in together pretty much as soon as we got together. At the moment we are just looking forward to getting married at some point, whether it be winning this competition or saving enough money for our own wedding.

Apolomia Boo and Andrew Piddeh
Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been together for eight years, engaged for four. Barrieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitments with the Forces have required him to work away a lot, meaning that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never had an opportunity to get married. Now that he is home for the forseeable future, we would love nothing more than to finally become husband and wife.
I am engaged to Apolomia. We met online and fell in love. Being a pensioner I thought I would be alone forever but an angel came to my side. I would like to win to surprise my partner. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to marry and time is running out for us both.

Louisa Duggan and Perry Smith
Zara is the love of my life. Zara is 26 and has cystic fibrosis. If, with your help, I could make our dream wedding come true it would be beyond our wildest dreams. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m serving in the Army with several tours of Afghanistan and the Middle East.
Many moons ago I was lucky enough to fall in love with a beautiful, intelligent lady under the stars of Mountbatten. Since then life has rapidly moved on and before long our princess arrived, bearing both family names. Our dream is to entwine our lives together and share her name.

Together 11 years and engaged since Christmas. For us getting married is about celebrating what we have with those we love and winning your competition would help us do that in the ultimate way. I loved the boy I met over a decade ago and I am so proud of the kind-hearted generous man he has become.
I would love to win the dream wedding as I have the dream wife-to-be. We are both working and trying to save enough for our dream wedding but this would just be amazing. I have chosen to enter but still have not told her yet as I know it would be a dream for her. We have been together for five years now and only got engaged last year.
