Good Monday to you all Cwtchers! This weeks beautiful Cwtch of the Week: A Castle Cwtch, is from the fabulous and very talented Lewis Fackrell . The lovely couple are Mark and Rhian. The image was taken on the walls of Llansteffan Castle with a beautiful backdrop of the Gower. Over to Lewis to tell us a bit more about the couple……..x
Cwtch of the Week: A Castle Cwtch
Mark and Rhian first met 10 years before they actually got together. He remembered but she didn’t. He mentioned that he remembered the fact that she was a farmer’s daughter from Llanelli and that he’d also pretended to be French when they first met (which on both occasions, was at a Wales v France six nations match in Cardiff). Only the second time, he was not leaving without her number.
The Proposal
Fate had made Mark wait long enough. Mark planned a proposal in Rome as Rhian had always had a romanic vision of a proposal in front of Fontana di Trevi. Unfortunately it was covered in scaffolding, so Mark kept her waiting a little longer. The moment finally came in the middle of gale force winds and hail on the top of Snowdon.

She didn’t get long to answer as it was too cold to hang around at the summit! They finally got together in 2012 and 4 years later they are tying the knot.
Ahhh amazing! They were just meant to be! Mark and Rhian get married on 18th June in Llansteffan. Looking forward to seeing those images! x
