Wedding Season

Weddings, weddings, weddings! It really has been the season to say 'I do' recently and it's turned me into a bit of a wedding snoop...
We've been to two weddings over the past few weeks and had a lovely time, plus it has given us a real life insight to things we might have overlooked; i.e. having music in the background whilst guests are waiting for the ceremony to begin, how guests need to be entertained between the photos and the meal and getting the balance right when watching the pennies. It's only when you go to a wedding that these little elements come to your attention - we have already made a lot of choices when it comes to processional and recessional music, readings, table pieces, unique favours and other special touches, but there are some practical things you don't realise until you are a guest yourself.

It's almost a year to go now and we have a really good idea of how the day will go, how it will look, how much fun you will all have with us etc. so as soon as the new year comes round, we'll be able to get on with a lot more of the ideas.

We'll be off to the wedding show at the NEC again in October - can't hurt to get together even more ideas! - and have started looking at possible honeymoon locations now too, with Austria being a particular favourite at the moment... As long as there is lots to do, beautiful scenery to see and we can jet away a day or two after the wedding, we'll be a very happy Mr and Mrs!
