I think I've found my hair style....

When I cam across these images at SMP this morning I just about fell off my chair (note to self don't read wedding blogs while on wheely chair).  I'm so in love with everything about this wedding - you really should check it out.

More than anything though I love, love, love her hair!  She looks like she could have as much hair as I do and I want that hairstyle.  Just trying to decide if it goes with my dress.

Did I tell you I found my dress?  Well dress pattern anyway.  My very dear and lovely mumsy is making me a trial run (so I can make sure it suites) and if it does - ta da - wedding dress.  I'm a little bit excited.

unexpected vessels as vases

I am becoming slightly obsessed with floral arrangements. While these are not what I will use for mine I just though they were a fabulous idea.

We Have A Winner

I believe dear friends that we have found our wedding venue.

Here are some photos taken by my wedding co-ordinator yesterday.












It's a vineyard and olive grove called Bunnyconnellen and it sounds delightful.

These are gorgeous

My wedding co-ordinator/florist talked about maybe doing suspended floral arrangements for our wedding.  If they end up looking anywhere near as good as these from Amy Osaba I will be so much more than happy... deliriously so maybe.

and more ideas for a candy table...

Sweets Table and a Cupcake Stand

I stumbled across these pics at Ella Blue Studio today and kinda fell in love.


I was always going to have a sweets table but I love, love, love cupcakes and after the amazing job my little sister did on my engagement cake I am giving serious consideration to letting her loose on a cupcake table like this:

The rest of the pics from this wedding are amazing too.  Check them out here Ella Blue Studio - Melody & Adam

Saturday....

So I have discovered in the last couple of days that every single time a married person asks me about my wedding and I tell them I'm having a small one their response is invariably...

"oh, really! I wish I'd done that."

So I'm left wondering if I have a little wedding will I wish I had a big one (mostly on account of everyone seems to want what they don't have)? or will I just be happy with what I end up with.

I'm inclined to go with happy. Well at least I certainly hope so.

So onto my Saturday. My lovely finance is at work so I'm thinking I should clean and grocery shop today.

Amy Atlas(and my little sister) have also inspired my to cook today:

What do you think???

We have also decided to have the wedding away so I have enlisted the help of a wedding co-ordinater and also very, very good friend Erin of Vera & Rose to look after our day for us.
