I'm married....hurray (flash)

pinkpeonies, 2 July, 2011 at 18:05 Posted on Planning 0 21


Went down and met the registrar, this was the only time I got nervous, in fact I started to shake a little. By this time we were a little late as it was 1.20pm and we were supposed to be getting married at 1. I walked out of the registrar and saw my gorgeous niece who is 2 and a half. She ran all the way down the hall calling my name and gave me the biggest hug. We walked towards the library where I was having the ceremony and me and my dad realised that we both couldnt get through the down together as my dress was quite big and the door very small. We both couldnt stop laughing. We walked down the aisle and my husband saw me and just gave me such a big smile. Then when we got up to him my dad shook his hand and wished him good luck and again everyone was laughing. Here is the next flash of us in the ceremony, with my OH trying to get my ring on which is a little tight and a picture of the bridal party.



We signed the register, had a number of photos and then walked to our champagne reception which was in the orangery and adjoining terrace of the hotel. The weather was holding out well and we managed to get a load of lovely pictures outside. We went into the wedding breakfast about 330 and the food was just lovely and the sun was shining so we were able to have all the doors open to allow a lovely breeze to cool everyone down. The speeches went really well and everyone laughed and drunk champagne. Shortly after the wedding breakfast we cut the cake by the bar which meant everyone came to take photographs and that allowed the hotel/DJ to set up for the evening.

Not sure how we managed this but we were 30 mins ahead of schedule which allowed all our guests to check into their rooms in the hotel and for me and my new husband to take some time together in our bridal suite. I would definitely recommend as we got a little time to reflect, relax and refresh for the evening. We even had a little time to practice our first dance in my dress Smiley smile as I was really nervous about it. In the end the first dance went well apart from the DJ worrying that he didnt have the right music but turning out that he did after all. So here are a couple more photos.





We had an absolutely lovely day and have some amazing memories. A couple of days later we flew off to Singapore and the Maldives for the most amazing honeymoon too.

    We were so pleased with our photographs and already have put some on our walls and created a photobook with them too.

    My dress is by benjamin roberts number 1007 (it looks so different in the official phtographs from benjamin roberts). I fell in love with it when I walked into the bridal shop and tried it on so many times before I actually put down the deposit. Had a few wobbles afterwards but so glad that I bought it as it really made me feel special on my day.
