Best friend’s are there for each other through thick and thin. Having Adele as a best friend seems like it comes with all of that and more! The Grammy Award-winning singer officiated her bestie, Laura Dockrill’s, wedding this past Saturday (15 February) in London.
Dockrill, an author and illustrator, wedded musician Hugo White, a member of The Maccabees, at a pub called Mason’s Arms. After officiating for the happy couple, Adele provided some entertainment too. Imagine having Adele perform at your wedding! A dream come true, right?
She performed her breakout hit “Rolling in the Deep” and “Spice up your life” by the Spice Girls. Later, fellow singer Florence Welch also joined Adele on stage.
The songstress has known Dockrill for years, as they grew up together and have been friends since they were children. Adele even wrote a song for Dockrill titled “My Same”. The song can be found on her album 19.
Adele’s performance at this wedding was quite significant. She is a notoriously private person and in prefers not to be seen by the public during her day-to-day life. In fact, the singer has not performed at a big event since 2017 when she had a concert at Wembly Stadium.
Of course she knew guests would capture some video… she is Adele after all. So this must have meant a lot to her. What a great friend!
The couple looked happy as can be:

Apparently, congratulations are long over-due for Mya, who reportedly got married in secret in December 2019. The ‘Lady Marmalade’ singer had an island wedding in Seychelles. This news…
Nothing is set in stone, least of all what colour your wedding dress should be. We’re all about taking fashion risks and if black is your thing, we say go for it. It doesn’t have to be gloomy. If you do it right, a black gown can be classy, sassy and gorgeous. Take a look at these brides who are beautiful in black:

‘Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue’. The age old Victorian era saying still holds weight today with many couples who opt to incorporate it into their…
Millennials are known for doing things their own way. Getting married is no exception. A quirky new trend has emerged in recent years and has become quite popular. We introduce: the buddymoon.
Some couples feel that they want to share the celebration of their new marriage with their closest friends. We mean, who wouldn’t want to go on a fun trip with their besties?
This can range from inviting just one other couple to as many other people (couples or singles) as you want. Not all couples are into romantic “couple” things and enjoy their trips more when doing group activities.
Here are some things to keep in mind if you and your partner consider swapping the traditional honeymoon for a buddymoon:
– Is it what you both prefer? It should be a mutual decision.
– If you do it, will you still work in some alone time, or go all out for a group setup?
– How does it affect your budget? Group bookings at accommodation or activities sometimes get great discounts. However, you are not as flexible to decide what to do or where to stay as you need to consider everyone involved.
– Does everyone going on the trip get along well? If not, there might be a chance that conflict could ruin the holiday.
If you and your partner have discussed these issues and agree to go ahead, you might just have the time of your life making wonderful memories with people you love.
Judging by these pictures, the buddymoon is nothing but an absolute blast.

Deep blue is the colour of royalty, so it is no surprise a rich sapphire stone would centre Kate Middleton’s engagement ring. Once belonging to Princess Diana, this…
Proposals are always meaningful, and it’s great to have a photographer capture that special moment. But what if Google is your photographer? One German man was surprised to discover that his epic proposal was caught on Google Maps.
32-year-old part-time farmer Steffen Schwarz proposed to his partner last May with a dramatic proposal that involved a public message and drones. Schwartz used a corn-planting machine to write a message into his two-hectare (five-acre) field in Huettenberg, central Germany that would be visible aerially. The message read “Will you marry me?” in German. Schwartz then had his girlfriend fly a drone over the field to read the message. Of course, she said yes.
“At first she couldn’t see it [the proposal] because the drone wasn’t flying high enough. But when she realised, she said yes immediately,” Schwartz told German news agency DPA.
The story would have ended there if it weren’t for Schwartz’s aunt. His relative was on Google Maps and happened to come across an image of Schwartz’s proposal!
The couple plan to marry in June 2020, and will once again pull out their drone for some epic photography.
