Something truly special
In a separate post we saw Laura and Ben's intimate wedding reception at the Welsh House in Swansea, showcasing the classy venue and - most importantly - capturing the classic-contemporary vibes of Laura and Ben's wedding.
This time we're revealing something truly special at this wonderful location in South Wales known as Three Cliffs Bay. The bride and groom have a really great story that ties them to this romantic and awe-inspiring spot on the Welsh coast.

Infused with their story
Ben and Laura met at the University of Swansea, during which time Three Cliffs Bay became one of their favourite spaces to visit and explore. So much so, that this was to be the place that Ben would eventually to propose to Laura.
After they were engaged, Ben made the trek back to Three Cliffs - unbeknownst to Laura - to gather sands from the cliff tops. This hand picked sample was then sent to America where they were infused into the wedding bands carrying forward their 'origin story' into the rest of their lives! Way to raise the bar, Ben!
