My first marriage was very traditional, in the church, and then we left the church and went to the reception hall. So this time, I’d like to go fairy tale all the way.

Leakes contrasts a conventional first wedding—church ceremony followed by a standard reception—with a desire for a more imaginative, extravagant second celebration. The phrase “fairy tale all the way” signals a wish to depart from tradition and embrace spectacle, romance, and personal fantasy, suggesting both self-reinvention and a reclaiming of agency over how a major life milestone is staged. Implicitly, the quote reflects a common cultural narrative around remarriage: the second wedding can be less about social expectation and more about the couple’s chosen aesthetic and story. It also fits Leakes’s public persona, where glamour and theatricality are part of self-presentation.
