I wanted to look like a bride but not too traditionally bridal.\u201d She settled on an Anoushka G gown and had a \u00a36 back necklace sewn on. As far as bargain hunting went, they were lucky.\u00a0Ami\u00a0also picked up braces in a vintage shop for \u00a32 each.<\/p>\n<p>Sixty guests joined the sporty pair (Ami\u00a0is a sports coordinator and Gary, a footballer) at their destination wedding in Benahavis, Spain on June 7, 2014. \u201cIt was the most relaxed, beautiful and precious day of our lives,\u201d smiles\u00a0Ami. \u201cOur relationship is strong and we have so much fun together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Photos courtesy of <a title=\"Agata Jensen\" href=\"http:\/\/agatajensen.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener
