When it came to her own fairytale wedding, Fran Newman-Young saw two dreams come true. Not only did she marry her prince, Pete Clarke, in a picturesque ceremony in the beautiful Majorcan village of Deià, but she worked with designer Savannah Miller on a "breathtaking" bespoke wedding dress that was more perfect than she could ever have imagined.
"The wedding day was just spectacular-it was in one of the most beautiful locations in Deià," former Made in Chelsea star Fran tells HELLO! in this exclusive interview. "We were looking at the sun coming down as we were exchanging our vows." The couple chose the village for their destination wedding having fallen in love with the area when they visited at the start of their romance.
"It's so beautiful; we thought if we ever got married, we would have to have it there," Fran, a brand consultant specialising in content creation and social media, says.
They stumbled across the location for the ceremony and reception, Son Marroig a traditional Majorcan estate - while exploring the area to find their ideal venue. "We had always seen Son Marroig from afar and wondered what it was. We spoke to the wedding planner and they said we could get married there, so we visited and it was just perfect."
PLANE TO SPAIN
Following a brief civil ceremony in London, 110 guests including Fran's former Made in Chelsea co-star Cheska Hull - jetted to the Spanish island from destinations as far-flung as Los Angeles and Sydney to join Fran and Pete at their nuptials at the end of August.
They were all invited to a four-day celebration, which kicked off with welcome drinks at a restaurant in nearby Port de Sóller. The actual ceremony took place on the second day, with festivities continuing at famous fish restaurant Ca's Patró March featured in hit TV show
