A work colleague is boosting about spending 6k GBP to hire a castle for a day, plus extras for horse-drawn carridge for her big day
Yet, the diamond on her engagement ring is not particularly big or sparky.
I would have opted for a bigger and better ring and have a cheaper bash myself
Each to their own at the end of the day
Congratulations Olga! Your daughter-in-law looks radiant in that photo
