I get married next week... flash flash flash!

NEXT WEEK. I can't WAIT! ❤️

Been fretting a bit that our wedding is too dark. We didn't have a theme but most things have ended up dark burgundy cos we both love the colour...

The tea towel invitations:

The venue, The Council Chambers in Islington Town Hall:

The reception restaurant, The Fish & Chip Shop:

My dress!:

My hair and make up trial (don't think I'm going to wear the headband anymore, and my hair is more of a dark brown now):

My necklace:

My bracelet:

My wedding nails (shellac) plus ER (which will be worn on the other hand after the wedding):

Wedding rings! Can't wait to wear it:

The flowers! Paper ones with Harry Potter pages:

My little man's suit! (He's chosen the blue socks!):

Bridesmaids' multiway dresses, each worn a different way:

Bridesmaids' shoes (well, flip flops! We Smiley heart Haivanas!):

Flowergirl dresses:

Flower girls' Converses, plus our son is wearing these too!:

Drinks stirrers:

Favour bags, sealed with these stickers. They're full up of personalised M&M's, personalised Love Hearts, and retro sweeties such as ring pops, fizbangers, sweetie necklace, etc:

Charity pin favours:

Ribbon wands (instead of confetti! this is a crap pic but they're lovely in the flesh, each wand is all one colour, so we've ordered all the colours):

Extra favours for the wedding party (it's one of our readings):

Ooooh, and finally, how could I forget? My favourite accessory for the day... last week we had matching tattoos done!! It was my OH's first (and last haha!) ever one. It's the '&' sign, from The Fish & Chip Shop logo... you can see it here on their glasses:

...I can't wait. For all of this, but also, just to marry this girl. ❤️

    It all looks lovely! I have a similar burgundy colour scheme to you and my wedding's in 3 weeks. At the time I picked it back in January I worried it would be too dark for summer, but now I don't think it matters one bit! It's what you like that counts Smiley smile
