I'm adequately lucky to have joined that fabulous rundown after I secured the bunch at the occasion on Tuesday.


The notion of not seeing the lady of the prior hour strolling down the walkway was in a real sense knocked out of my socks off as my significant other to-be Paige impacted her hair dryer at 04:30 on Tuesday.


By 10:20 Paige and I were authoritatively a couple - really that fast.


We nearly felt like big names - my BBC associates and journalists talked with us while photographic artists requested that we present close by the 99 different couples here, sealing the deal, restoring their commitments or framing a common organization.


I found a portion of different couples I imparted this strange day to.
