Real Wedding: MINE!

5 years ago today I stood before my best friend and promised to love him for evermore....and I'm very happy to say that 5 yrs in....I'm going strong with that promise! We both are. I was so lucky to find someone who constantly makes me laugh, loved and always, ALWAYS makes me feel like his no 1. (The fact that I 'let' him play golf whenever he likes, may help that!). Happy Anniversary honey....I look forward to the evermore with you x

So this feels a little strange to do this and put it out there but I thought I'd share some of my wedding with you. Now whilst I loved every second of our wedding and we had an amazing day (and week), I think if I did it now visually it would look quite different. I wasn't in the industry when we got married and had just returned from the UK so I planned the whole thing from there and returned shortly beforehand. Let me also preface this by saying I'm really not a PINK girl, so the fact that I choose pink is kinda weird to me. (It was actually more of a dusky pink than it looks in these pictures). It was a toss up between that and chartreuse green which for anyone who knows me knows that was far more suited to me. For anyone who's been reading this blog for sometime you'll know that I love, LOVE anything rustic and vintage, not too perfect, but I don't think I really embraced this to the extent I could have. I did DIY a lot....make all the table runners, had my parents save up dogfood tins for weeks (soooo glamourous!) to wrap in fabric and ribbon, made coconut ice for the favours, and of course this was my first stationery design.

I hope you enjoy this little peek into my big day......

Everything looks so gorgeous! i love the hydrangeas in the tin with the ribbon wrapping and it looks like from the start you were always destined to make beautiful stationary. For a first go - all the paper goods look amazing! Well done and congratulations on 5 years. Happy Anniversary. Kate <3 Jon
