For Sarah Wilkinson, 20 years of saving led to a jaw-dropping truimph (her dream wedding). This woman chose to marry herself instead of having a partner by her side.
The picturesque setting was Harvest House in Felixstowe, Suffolk, where Sarah’s celebrant friend officiated the ceremony. While it wasn’t a legally binding wedding, it was, in every sense, her special day.
Sarah, a British credit controller, decided that this celebration was a natural progression from her earlier self-pampering, which included buying herself an engagement ring. In her own words, “It was a lovely day for me to be the center of attention.”
As Sarah Wilkinson said, “I might not have this with a partner by my side, but why should I miss out? That money was reserved for my wedding – it was a case of it’s there, and why not use it for something I want to do.”

Surrounded by 40 cherished family and friends during the day of the ceremony and another 40 in the evening at a nearby tennis club, Sarah’s wedding was a testament to self-love. She even wrote 14 personal vows, with the first being a promise to never relinquish control of the TV remote.
This was born during the lockdown as she hit her 40th birthday by fulfilling her long-held dream of owning a diamond engagement ring. She is currently 42 years old.
