After our wedding last year, I’d hoped I’d be able to wear my precious wedding dress again some day, so it was lovely to be able to fulfil that wish when earlier this year, Matt and I modeled for a wedding shoot in the countryside. The shoot was beautifully styled with my favourite things (peonies, cupcakes and teacups) and we had a fantastic day filled with laughter. It was also fun…
Our Wedding Video
A wedding video was never something I gave much thought to during the early stages of wedding planning, but after immersing myself in the online world of weddings, I realised having one was an essential part to the day. In this modern era where fantastical and mind boggling new technology is launched daily, it seemed strange not to consider having one of the most momentous days of our life captured…

I wanted something sparkly so when I spotted this bag in Accessorize it was perfect for the occasion and I thought it was reasonably priced at £30.

(Edit: If you want to see how it all came together, click to see our English Country Garden Wedding!) It’s been a while since I mentioned anything to do with the wedding and since everything is pretty much planned now and with just under 6 months to go, I thought I’d give an update. After the romantic proposal (which can be read here) I jumped straight into planning our wedding and I’ve…
