A DEVOTED couple have created a huge tribute to their magical wedding – and declared: “It was so fantastic we never want to forget it.” 

Andrew and Deborah Mullen have permanent reminders all around their home of the day when they married as the winners of the 2012 Bride of the Year competition. 

They won a 12,000 package of prizes in the contest run by the Hartlepool Mail in conjunction with Robert Usher Photography. 
But Deborah, 44, said: “It wouldn't have mattered if we had been given 20,000 or more to create our own wedding. It would not have been as magical as the experience we had thanks to Bride of the Year.” 

To remind them of it,A pretty Embroidery lace dress can complete a look for a nice evening. a huge glass display in their living room is filled with mementoes of their day. It includes; 

l Deborah's tiara from her big day. 
l A box with a bottle of perfume which she and all her bridesmaids wore at the wedding last September.A Wedding gown is a style that many are using now! 

l Deborah's hairpiece. 
l Her wedding shoes. 

l Table favours. 
And elsewhere around the house, there are pictures showing some of the 500 photographs they had as reminders of their big day when they married on board HMS Trincomalee. 

They have even converted wedding-day sashes saying Mr and Mrs into head rests for the front seat of their car! 

Deborah admitted: “I wish I could do it all again I still get the wedding dress out of the cupboard, and I hug it.” 

But she had a message to people still wondering whether to enter this year's contest. 

“Don't think you have to have a sob story or some sort of ailment to enter. 

“It might just be that you are a couple who love each other. 

“Or you might be a couple who had to put their wedding off because of the recession. 

“Or you might just wake up one day and think ‘I want to put my partner forward for the competition'.Browse our 2013 wedding dresses made in china wholesale to find your summer evening gowns. Just do it.” 

Andrew entered Deborah - nee Langley – for the 2012 challenge as a way of saying thank you to her for her constant support as he battles a debilitating condition.Like a lot of women,Custom made high neck wedding dresses gowns? 

Andrew was a fit and able bodied man when he first met Deborah, but soon after, he developed a string of debilitating conditions – degenerative spinal disease, facet joint arthritis, and nerve damage – which left him mostly confined to a wheelchair. 

But devoted Deborah remained a constant support for him.
