“It was three-and-a-half years ago in Israel on the JNF UK trip to Eilat,” Katie recalls. “We went on our first date a couple of weeks later back in London. It turned out that we both lived in Mill Hill, but it took a trip to Israel for us to meet.”
“Lee planned a surprise romantic break to Majorca. We’d both had many happy childhood holidays there, so it was the perfect place to propose.”
“It was held at the Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue in Lauderdale Road and the reception was at Claridges.”
“We went to Zambia on safari and Benguerra Island, just off the coast of Mozambique, to chill out. It was the perfect mix and a once-in-a-lifetime trip,” Katie reports. “The safari was absolutely great,” Lee adds. “I loved every minute of it.”
