Beginner November 2016

All done and dusted

Sweeties, 22 November, 2016 at 20:08 Posted on Planning 0 11

Hi all, just wanted to drop by and say thanks for all the help you guys provided.

We were married on 5th November and it was a wonderful day.

We actually met around 2001, but we didn't start dating for around another 2-3 years. We've been living in sin since 2004.

The OH proposed to me in 2013, on my Birthday, while on holiday in Lanzarote.

Sorry if the images are huge!

At this point, I've had my hair and face done! My bridesmaid was all ready.


Walking down the isle with my Daddy, pooping ourselves! in case we tripped up!


Starting to feel a bit less nervous


Oh thank god that's all over... clearly on our faces!!


I just loved my dress


Cake number one... we couldn't remember what was in this cake... hence us laughing


Sweetie table, cupcakes and cake number two


Can't wait to see our 'proper' photos. Photographer contacted me today, to say he'll bring them round hopefully this week.

Everyone had a good day.

Afternoon tea went down really well, there was so much food! most of the full day guests were still full, and didn't have the hot evening buffet. But the people that did, said it was really good. Lots of hot carved meat, bacon buttys and obviously a veggie option too!

We even lasted until gone 1 in the morning, which is practically unheard of for us... we played lots of 80's cheesy wedding music.. well lets face it, if it doesn't have directions on how to dance I'd be lost!

Then 6 days later we went on our honeymoon, back to Lanzarote.

Had a fantastic 10 days, and not a drop of rain! We go every November, and this had to be one of the hottest we'd had in a while.

The Saturday after our Wedding, we went to a very nice restaurant in Puerto Del Carmen, and they really spoilt us, provided a bottle of Moet-Chardonnay on the house. Really sweet of them.

Now back to the real world, and back to work tomorrow.

    Thank you for all the lovely comments. I love that pic of my Dad, he was super nervous too.

    We have two cakes, because I wanted a stack of books, plus a traditional looking cutting cake... and also because CAKE! Lol

    We didn't have a dessert table, but had sweets, cupcakes, iced cookies and the cakes. White choc, milk choc, Victoria sponge and lemon... oh and cupcakes were vanilla, choc and caramel... Sooo good.

    LOVE the picture of you laughing as you cut that cake - it's lovely! Your book cake is lovely too. Did you pick titles that were important to you?
