“The speeches were amazing,” said Amy.
“Ben, the best man, included photoshopped images of the groom in various nerdy films as Niall and Ben are both huge nerds when it comes to Star Wars.”
“We also had All Hallows choir consisting of both staff and pupils and they were unbelievable!”
Niall, 26, said: “It was the best day of my life from start to finish and couldn’t pick a single fault with anything.
