A summer wedding at Islington Town Hall is always special, but for Dalel, it was nothing short of unforgettable. From her DIY decorations to walking up the marble staircase on her way to the wedding ceremony in one of the unique ceremony rooms, the day was a perfect mix of elegance and personality.
Their love story began on a dating app, was sealed with a snowy proposal in the Alps, and celebrated with a lively reception where even her husband’s uncle danced the night away.
Her wedding had special moments that made it truly hers. Even Ben, Dalel’s wedding photographer, became part of the story, much to the amusement of her guests. It was a day that reflected not just love and beauty, but her humour, creativity, and effortless charm, a celebration she’ll carry with her long after the marriage certificate was signed.
Planning an Islington Town Hall Wedding?
Meet Dalel, whose intimate celebration at this iconic London venue proves that sometimes the most beautiful weddings are the ones that feel perfectly, authentically you. From her gold and white theme to her flawless hair and makeup by Izabella Bordignon, every detail came together for what she describes as a day that was “brilliant! Couldn’t be any better.”
Love at First Swipe
“Believe it or not, on a dating app!” Dalel laughs when recalling how she met her now-husband. What started as a digital connection blossomed into something extraordinary, proof that true love can be found anywhere, even with a simple swipe right.
Their modern love story took a romantic turn during a ski trip to the Alps, where her partner got down on one knee against the breathtaking mountain backdrop. “One knee on the floor, a gorgeous ring, in front of the Alps during a ski trip,” Dalel reminisces about the perfect proposal that set the stage for their dream wedding.
Our Personal Touch
Dalel’s wedding aesthetic was beautifully simple yet striking: a gold and white theme that exuded timeless elegance. “It was a gold and white wedding, just because we liked the colours,” she shares, demonstrating that the most authentic weddings come from following your heart rather than following trends.
A feature that made their wedding truly special was the personal touch they added through ‘do-it-yourself’ decorations. “All the wedding decoration were DIY,” Dalel reveals, proving that handmade elements can transform any space into something uniquely yours.
Pre-Wedding Bliss: The Art of Preparation
In the days leading up to her big day, Dalel focused on self-care and quality time with loved ones. Her preparation was refreshingly uncomplicated: “Had a massage a few days before, went for nails with my mum and took one afternoon off work.” This approach highlights the importance of staying relaxed and present during the wedding countdown.
A Perfect Match From the Start
“It was brilliant! Couldn’t be any better,” Dalel beams when describing her experience with Izabella Bordignon. For a bride who knew exactly what she wanted, finding the right beauty team was crucial, and with Izabella Bordignon London, it was “a good match from the very start.”
“Simply because we loved it,” she explains when asked why she chose the renowned London-based team. Sometimes the best decisions are the simplest ones, and Dalel’s instinct proved absolutely right.
Beauty Inspiration: Brides & Beauty by Izabella
For her wedding day look, Dalel found her inspiration through social media. “Izabella’s Instagram” sparked her vision, and the results were nothing short of transformative. The talented team created such a stunning look that Dalel jokes, “now I’m pretty sure my husband won’t be taking me to his work Christmas dinners because his colleagues think I’m a beauty and he probably won’t want them to discover the truth about me!”
Unforgettable Moments: Dancing Through the Night
Every wedding has its magical moments, but Dalel’s celebration was filled with particularly heartwarming scenes. The most memorable? “My husband’s old uncle dancing on his wheelchair the whole night.” This beautiful moment perfectly captures the joy and inclusivity that made their day so special.
The Funniest Wedding Moment: Paris v. Tunis Luggage Battle
No wedding is complete without a few amusing moments, and Dalel’s celebration delivered in the most unexpected way. “My best friend from Paris and my sister from Tunis, fighting the whole night about who was going to have my old clothes, when neither one had any room in their luggage… and I was keeping my clothes anyway!” This delightful chaos shows how weddings bring together loved ones from across the globe, complete with their quirky dynamics.
Mauritius Honeymoon: Paradise Found
After their beautiful wedding, the newlyweds jetted off to Mauritius in August for their honeymoon. The tropical paradise provided the perfect setting to begin their married life together, offering relaxation and romance after their perfect day.
Words of Wisdom for Future Brides
When asked for advice for future brides, Dalel offers both practical and heartfelt guidance:
The Practical: “Never misplace cards that your guests will give you during the wedding, there is most likely money in them!” A reminder that wedding logistics matter, even during the celebration.
The Heartfelt: “Enjoy your day as much as you can.” Simple words that capture the essence of what every wedding should be a day of pure joy and celebration.
