My brother, Daniel, got married recently and I now have a beautiful, Russian sister-in-law called Vera. They tied the knot in the New Forest and it was a magical, fairytale wedding. My brother charmed his in-laws by doing a speech in Russian and we were all tickled pink by the anecdotes that the two Best Men shared with us! The Bridesmaids created a hilarious video of the hen night and we all danced the night away.
