- HHannah and Steve Ramsden18/11/2018The best day of our lives...in the best place.The best day of our lives...in the best place.On 11th November 2017, we had the most beautiful wedding ceremony at our alma mater, Royal Holloway, in the simply stunning and breathtaking chapel. Susan Eastburn and her team were incredible - explaining everything to us from the outset, keeping us informed about what needed to be completed and when and she was the loveliest lady, even keeping an emotional & very excited bride-to-be calm at the wedding rehearsal (!). This really was the dream setting to start our married life and having the addition of the simply stunning RHUL Chapel Choir was magical. The University is such a special place to us and it meant the absolute world that we were able to get married here. Just thank you so, so much. Cannot wait to come back - we feel very blessed.On 11th November 2017, we had the most beautiful wedding ceremony at our alma mater, Royal Holloway, in the simply stunning and breathtaking chapel.
