The wedding – 2 weeks on
This week, after four and a half years, I left my job. Not, I hasten to add, because I've gone full on 1950s and given up work as I'm now married, but because I have a very exciting new job, in a whole new industry, that I start tomorrow.

Today marks eight whole days since I married the love of my life, and it's been just wonderful.

As you may have guessed from the movie-related sayings, one - I'm hilarious, and two - our new wedding venue has a Hollywood theme. Or, more accurately, a Pinewood theme. We'll be getting married at Heatherden Hall, in… Continue reading We’ve found our venue! Take two – 26 weeks to go
A passionate defence of why a wedding theme doesn’t have to be hearts and flowers – 50 weeks to go
***SPOILER ALERT - THIS POST CONTAINS DETAILS ON THE WEDDING VENUE*** My lovely Auntie (she really is lovely) said to me over Christmas, "You're getting married the day before Valentine's day - your theme should be hearts and flowers!" I smiled politely and said we'd see, but I think she might be disappointed, what with… Continue reading A passionate defence of why a wedding theme doesn’t have to be hearts and flowers – 50 weeks to go
