    Love your diary of your day, and all the pics. Especially love the one wear you can see one of the guests putting on a pair of the flip flops in the background.

    Try not to dwell on the minor hiccup as in years to come everyone will only remember all of the little personal touches that made your day special.

    And of course CONGRATULATIONS lol x

    I think i might of been alright because we were also invited to 3 weddings this year and i was really looking forward to them, as i would love to be a guest at a wedding like mine (i know that sounds a bit big headed but i really put thought into my guests day)
    and as it turns out all three weddings have been either permanently called off (1) or postponed for the foreseeable future (the other 2)

    i wanted to play 4 weddings!!!!!! lol

  • Awww Sammy, thanks for the lovely report - it felt like I was there along the way (plus it's given me an idea as to what happens and what I will feel like before, during and after.)

    I glad the day went well on the whole apart from a few little hiccups, the photos are beautiful and you look gorgeous in your dress.

    I wish you all the best in your new life together :)

    (And keep us posted... We want the baby pics when you have one!)
    Planned our wedding, still planning lessons

    Congrats sammy...have only just found time to sit and read all this, amazed you found the time to write it all but glad you did :)
    I'm half getting panicky that I'm now less than 2 months - partly cos I keep thinking of what I've not done but also already not looking forward to not having the wedding to look forward to! Hope your Chester weather pays us a visit in October :)
