I Do at Chelsea Flower Show

The Chelsea Flower Show has just hosted its first wedding.

And it’s a gay wedding.

Award-winning garden designer Manoj Malde married Clive Gilmour on Monday 22 May, in a garden that Manoj designed.

Manoj is the Royal Horticultural Society’s (RHS) ambassador for inclusivity and diversity.

Manoj said: “We’ve had the outfits made in India and I’ve asked all the ladies in my family to wear saris, so it’ll be really nice to have that tradition as well.

‘How on earth is anyone going to accuse the RHS of being elitist when they are going to have the first RHS Chelsea wedding between a gay Indian man and a gay Irish man?”
