Aimee Connolly on her fairytale French wedding, parkrun and Sculpted's next steps

The founder of make-up brand, Sculpted by Aimee says she plans to take a delayed honeymoon in a couple of month's time

'We had looked at so many wedding venues, to the point that we almost got divorced before we got married'

When I sit down with Aimee Connolly, the first thing that strikes me is how self-possessed the 30-year-old seems. It's a quiet confidence that has served her well over her impressive career to date, and it's something she attributes to the way she was brought up. The second thing I notice is her lovely newlywed glow; Relaxed and happy, Connolly lights up as she tells me all about her recent fairytale wedding. 

Last month Aimee and her fiancé, long-term partner John Greene said their “I dos” in front of friends and family at a stunning French venue; Chateau de Varennes in Burgundy. She tells me that while she plans to take a delayed honeymoon in a couple of months’ time, the wedding itself felt like a holiday.
