The clocks have sprung forward and it’s officially British Summertime, or so I’m told, so for this week’s wish list I’ve allowed my mind to wander to those lazy, hazy summer days and one of my favourite looks, seersucker. 1. Seersucker Hair Bow – £4.76 + shipping from Etsy 2. Striped Double Duvet Cover Set – … Continue reading
When deciding on our honeymoon we struggled to find somewhere that ticked all our boxes. First and foremost we wanted somewhere relaxing, figuring that after nearly two years of planning we would need a well earned rest once the main event was done. Unfortunately though I have a short attention span, and being someone who … Continue reading
With less than a year to go until the big day I’m suddenly panicking about all the “it can wait” tasks I’ve pushed to one side during our wedding planning. Which is why I find myself looking at summer dresses in the throes of Autumn and also why I’m shunning the grey skies that Autumn … Continue reading
Patience is usually not a virtue I possess, though it seems on this occasion I may have managed it. You see last year I trekked to every Boots imaginable on the hunt for the heart shaped chalk boards that were part of their annual Christmas 3 for 2 giftathon. Eventually I resigned myself to the … Continue reading
Does anyone else feel like time is getting away from them at the moment? In the past week I was meant to email two wedding suppliers, list a mass of items on ebay, reformat all my blog images for the new layout and write some new content for the blog. Do you know how much … Continue reading
As a child I used to spend hours wandering the beautiful countryside surrounding our house, I just couldn’t get enough of the great outdoors. As an adult I rarely find an opportunity to just take in the world around me, but since getting my new camera I’m determined to change that. On Saturday I decided … Continue reading
I’m feeling a tad smug tonight as I managed to get some wonderful bargain goodies for our wedding. The bubble wands were £3.75 for a pack of 24 wands in the Paperchase sale. They don’t seem to be on the website so I’d recommend checking your local store. For a while now I’ve had this … Continue reading
Usually Music Monday is reserved for songs that I just can’t get out of my head, but this week I’ve decided to combine my love of cringey wedding PDAs with my weekly whenever I remember Music Monday posts. So without further ado, I present to you the bride who chose to sing Christina Aguilera’s The … Continue reading
As a fully fledged bride to be I know first hand the trauma that comes with searching for that elusive dress that transforms you from girl next door to full on princess. Each time I set foot in a boutique and tried on a dress either impossibly small or many sizes too big I longed … Continue reading
For the last few months me and Mr G have been relaxing safe in the knowledge that we’ve got this whole wedding thing well and truly wrapped up. It’s amazing how quickly we’ve forgotten all the stress and panic (mainly on my part!) of finding our dream rustic venue. So I thought I’d pull together … Continue reading
Sometimes I don’t have time to write long blog posts, sometimes I don’t even have time to read long blog posts so this morning I decided I would write more list posts for the time poor of you out there. If i’d known the reality of planning a wedding seven months ago, I’d have probably said … Continue reading
Ok now when it comes to social media I didn’t think they come much geekier than me, but this just takes things a step too far. Upon saying “I do” Dana Hanna pulled out his phone to announce his new status on Facebook and Twitter. I dread to think what he tweeted before consummating the … Continue reading
