Well here goes...I'm no good at writing these kinda things so bear with me or just skip to the pics haha.
The Wedding Day
I stayed at my mum's house the night before the wedding and planned to stay in the box room but forgot that's where my dress will be hanging up. My dress was hanging right over the bed so there was no chance of sleeping in there. My mum offered me her bed so we ended up sharing as i couldnt let her sleep on the sofa. My first couple of hours sleep were brilliant. Until 1.30am and i just couldnt sleep at all. I ended up getting up at 3am and watched a bit of telly with the blanket to see if that would make me sleep. I dosed for a few hours and then got up at 7am to beautiful blue sky and sun shining through the window. Tried a bit of cereal as my stomach was churning. Then went for a shower.
My Make-up/hair lady turned up at 8.30am followed by my first BM. She started on her hair first. My others came at 9am and then another BM at 9.30am, there was no need for them to get there all at the same time. Then it was hair and make up done for all BM. My Auntie came at 9am to start my hair.
My MOH (all in matching PJ's)
My 3rd Bridesmaid is 5 months pregnant so My MOH had the job of painting her toe nails...
My mum then did the most important job - Sandwich order :-)
It was time for BM's to get dressed while i had my hair n make up finished just as the photographer turned up and got in the way like they do. I'm sure he got some good photo's tho. I then went upstairs to get my dress on with my MOH. I rememebered half way into my dress that i needed a wee so quickly jumped out haha. Then it was dress on (zip up back..soo easy) it all felt abit rushed i thought i was running late, i got downstairs with loads of time to spare. So we all had a glass of bucks fizz and had a breather. It was all going so well until my bridesmaid decided to knock half a glass of bucks fizz down my other BM's dress. Thank god a hair dryer was at hand at it dried off fine....Phhheeewwww!!! Panic over! My brother was giving me away and was nervous and pacing up and down.
We then got in the car and we all seemed extremely calm and chatty. It was soooo hot in the car!
Got to the venue a little early but we put the roof down on the car to cool down before we went in which was nice.
We then had a couple of shots outside and then into see the registrar.
The Ceremony was perfect
To be continued.....
