The beloved Parson Cross teenager died along with her boyfriend, Ethan Slater, 17, from Shiregreen, at a holiday park in Bridlington last month.
Hundreds of mourners lined Wordsworth Avenue today for her funeral procession, with applause and plumes of pink smoke filling the air.
Pink balloons were strung up on hedges and lamp posts, and well wishers were invited to wear whatever they felt Cherish would have loved, but many opted for pink.
These photos by photographer Dean Atkins capture the larger-than-life atmosphere today, including teenagers riding in open topped cars, Lamborghinis, and horse-drawn carriages.
