Real life love stories: Kelsey and Sam
The perfect wedding day
By Anna Scott, August 2024
Sending all our love and a huge congratulations to Kelsey and Sam who said 'I do!'
Going all the way back to the beginning... how they met! The gorgeous couple met 7 years ago at a workplace gym. With the help of a Christmas works party, they then started their relationship.
Their engagement story:
Sam planned a trip back to my home island, Jersey. He arranged for all of my close family to be there as a surprise and then he got down on one knee. It was lovely to celebrate with everyone close to me.
Tell us all about your wedding day! There must be hundreds but what is your favourite moment of your special day?
Walking down the aisle. I thought I would be nervous and an emotional wreck but as soon as the doors opened all my nerves went away after seeing Sam at the end of the aisle surrounded by all of our family and friends. I just felt so happy and excited. It was the most magical experience.
Kelsey and Sam have so many wedding supplier recommendations such as

Is there a piece of advise you can share with our newly engaged couples?
Enjoy the newly engaged bubble, celebrate with your loved ones and take as many photos of your ring as you want! (There can never be too many). When you look to start planning your wedding I would recommend to attend open days at your dream venues. The open days give you lots of ideas as you get to meet different suppliers, as well as a wedding feel to the venue when it is all dressed up. Finally, it's easier said than done but don't let wedding planning stress you out, it all comes together perfectly on the day.
How did you find the process of selecting your wedding rings?
Wongs have been nothing but amazing, friendly and welcoming throughout our journey with them. We initially bought an engagement ring with them, which they took so much care and time to help my now husband pick the gorgeous ring. He had an idea of what I wanted but with the help of Wongs he exceeded my expectations and my engagement ring is perfect for me! Then when it came to choosing our wedding rings, we found out that the Wongs workshop could melt my husband's late dads ring into something for him, not only was this so sentimental but they also took a video to document the ring going through the whole process. The ring turned out perfect and more than my husband could have wished for.
'Well done Wongs! You all hold a special place in our hearts for everything you have done for us to make our wedding day perfect!'
Thank you so much Sam and Kelsey for sharing your lovely story with us! We loved hearing all about it. We wish you both all the best 🤍
