Alex married Charlie in Cardiff Castle on New Year's Eve in 2015, and shared their wedding day exclusively with HELLO! magazine. The couple hosted their wedding ceremony in the castle’s stone-vaulted 15th century undercroft, followed by a reception in the 18th-century library and dining room. The wedding breakfast was held in the magnificent Banqueting Hall, where guests tucked into a three-course menu that included Welsh lamb shoulder braised with sweet sherry and rosemary, and Cotswold roast chicken with lemon and thyme.
