So, we got married!

I have not written on here for a while, I kind of lost my way a little and wasn't really sure what the aim of this blog was. I don't really think I want to achieve anything with this blog, I'm going to use it as a journal, to look back on and smile about.

....................

One thing I really have to smile about is the fact that I married my best friend. I don't have enough words in me to describe the extreme joyous mix of emotions that our wedding day gave me. It was the best day of my life. Ever. Fact.

Here are a few photos from the days leading up to and our wedding day.
(some photos have been stolen from my friends Instagram.)

Us getting very excited on the boat on the way to the lovely little Isle of Wight (where we got wed)

Not the most flattering photo, but a lovely memory of waking up together on the morning of the wedding.

The wedding ceremony at The Apple Farm.

My Pa and I ( and a lucky gust of wind that made my dress look awesome!).

Just arriving...I was SO nervous at this point! I literally didn't stop shaking for about 2 hours!

This one's going to be for the thank you cards!

Getting married to my sweet, kind husband was the best decision I've ever made. People say that getting married doesn't change anything, but I don't think they could be further from the truth. I feel complete, like, more complete than I felt before. There is a sense of security that I can't describe but I can just feel it. I feel like I'm a member of a special 'married club'...I know, I probably sound like a bit of a moron, but I guess I'm still in that honeymoon period, I just really want to make sure that I always remember feeling like this and why I feel like this.

Moon, I love you.

p.s Thanks to our lovely photographers Sacco & Sacco for setting up most of these photos, I will put their photos up soon (they will be a million times better than these IPhone shots!!)

1. Autumn walks - I donty think I'm going to get tired of photographs of fallen leaves and Autunmal colours.

 

2. My sleepy loves.

 

3. Wedding countdown! Ahhh! I think we're actually on 180 something now.

 

4. New running shoes, an early christmas present from le mother. She decided to enter me into a race in December so training is in full swing - wedding body here I come!

 

5. A fog filled Brighton.

 

6. Beautiful flowers (I bought myself!) sometimes you just have too, they're still going strong 2 weeks later!

weddingy things

I went to a wedding fair on Sunday, and it was actually pretty good! I never thought I'd say that, but now I can check that box and carry on with my life. The main thing that attracted me to this wedding fair in particular was the venue - Battsea Arts Center - and it didn't disappoint, beautiful mosaic floors, domed ceiling windows and stained glass, it was pretty beautiful to say the least.

 

The fair was called the Miss Vintage Wedding Affair and it was full of beautiful vintage lace, bespoke handmade stockings, tea cups that doubled up as wine glasses and lots of lovely vintage treasures and treats in between. My dear Rose travelled up from the Isle of Wight to play with me and to make it an extra special day out we had our hair and make up done by the wonderful Lucy at Hair That Turns Heads. We then spent the rest of our time there playing in the photo booth that WeNotMe set up, needless to say we were happy bunnies and left with a smile on our faces.

 

I was too busy having fun to take many photos, but here are a couple the Rose and I managed to capture.

 

 

 

 

Snaps and that

Heres a few photo's from the last month...

 

 

1.Coco getting into the Autumn vibes on the sofa. 2. My lovely cacti. 3. My new engagement ring that me and Si chose together. (the other one was the one he proposed with, beautiful, but wouldn't have lasted a lifetime!)

 

I'm having problems enlarging my photos on here at the moment, if anyone knows what to do about this please let me know!!

Need, not want

Our venue for our wedding is mostly outside, so when I saw these I kinda decided that they were a integral part to the wedding.

When else would you be able to justify Jimmy Choo wellies?

I love them so much, they will be mine.



Bling bling!

I thought I would share with you my very exciting news....I'm getting married! My beau proposed on a sunny Sunday morning, he bought me a coffee and a ring in bed! We are so happy.

The planning is well on the way, be warned though my blog may become rather saturated with wedding ideas, so I do apologise in advance!

Vintage Wedding Fair Hair

A couple of weeks ago, a friend of mine put on a vintage wedding circus with The Hurly Burly. I ended up doing a vintage hair salon there, it was so much fun! It did make me contemplate it for a new career direction, but brides scare me a bit.

Don't they all look beautiful! You can hire the Hurly Burly for weddings, they are great people and they sure know how to have a good time!
