'I spent less than £500 on my dream wedding - and did it by using Asos, eBay and Morrisons'

A bride says she planned her 'dream wedding' for less than £500 - which included eBay accessories, an ASOS dress and a bouquet form Morrisons.

Cloë Thornton, 29, and her partner, Josh, 32, a finance and commercial manager, got engaged when he popped the question while they were skiing in Morzine, the French Alps, in February 2020. The pair tied the knot in a legal ceremony with no guests in July 2022 - and later had a celebration with all their friends and families on July 23.

Cloë's mantra was 'our day, our way.' She wore a short white feathered frock from ASOS costing £110 and paired it with Nike Airforce trainers she already owned and a pair of £3 heart sunglasses from eBay. She made her own bouquet for £30 with three bunches of flowers - costing £10 each - from Morrisons.
