Stacey Solomon enforced strict rule on guests during lavish wedding to Joe Swash

Stacey Solomon ensured that her wedding to Joe Swash went off without a hitch - which included enforcing one strict rule for guests on the big day at Pickle Cottage.

In a conscious bid to allow all guests to “breathe and live in each precious moment”, the couple asked everyone to switch off their mobile phones.

Stacey took to Instagram to explain all about her big day while cleaning up after the beautiful Jewish ceremony held at the pair’s £1.2 million mansion last week.

The 32-year-old Loose Women star said: “I honestly cannot wait to get more pictures back and our videos.

“There were no phones or anything on the day so that we could really breathe and live in each precious moment.”

Sharing the rule over a picture of the couple’s wedding cake, Stacey then revealed that all her handy work, and her wedding furniture, was being donate to charity.

Christmas lanterns that were transformed to match the theme of the wedding, including tables and chairs, are all being donated to charities that need them.

That wasn’t the first kind gesture from the adoring couple, they asked that any news outlets wanting to use their wedding snaps make a donation to their chosen charity too.

In a lengthy caption after her big day, Stacey said: “Forever. Me and My Husband I don’t think I will ever get used to saying that.

“It all feels like a dream,” she added before quoting Dr. Seuss. “You know you’re in love when you don’t want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

“The most special day that we didn’t ever want to end. We love you all & the special community we’ve built on here so so much and couldn’t wait to share these moments with you."

She continued: “Joe lost his father at the age of 11 and so did my dad.

“A huge part of our wedding day was reflecting on how this had a huge effect on them and how hard it is, even to this day to deal with.

“We have copyrighted all these photos. We ask for all media who wish to use them on their own platforms to lawfully do the right thing by asking permission from the photographer.

“They will in turn give permission for them to be used as long as the media outlets using them make a donation to a charity that supports bereaved children."

Stacey added: "These memories are so special to us and it would mean the absolute world to us if they made a difference to children growing up with the loss and heartache that my father and my husband did.

“Thank you for respecting our wishes lots of love Mr & Mrs Solomon-Swash."
