With the help from the newspaper's generous readers, Emma and Dion, 18, were married at Bredbury Hall in Stockport on April 8, surrounded by family and friends.
Singer Ed Sheeran sent his apologies – along with a beautiful bunch of flowers and card.
Mum Cheryl Wilde says they want to thank each and every person who helped make Emma’s day special, as well as helped her to tick off some of the other items on her bucket list.

 She said: “Without these generous, kind and thoughtful people, the wedding wouldn’t have been so beautiful or so memorable.
“Bredbury Hall were simply fantastic. They gave Emma a wedding fit for a princess – nothing was too much trouble."
