I think we so often post on here when something's stressing us out, so I thought it might be nice to share a few things that we're doing because we just really want to and that'll make our days feel like ours! A positive post where we can share some personal touches and generate some excitement!
I'll go first with some favourites of mine:
My oldest friend (we met in primary school) is going to officiate our ceremony. We've spent many years jokingly saying he'd officiate my future wedding, and when I got engaged I decided it would actually be really special to genuinely let him do this - luckily FH loved the idea too! In a real meant-to-be moment, he recently guessed exactly what song I'd decided to walk down the aisle to and had even been playing it whenever he'd been practicing his officiant speech!
We're having a DJ, but for our first dance two musically talented friends are performing. A friend of mine is singing and a friend of FH's is playing the guitar - so someone important to me and someone important to him are getting together to learn and perform our song.
My mum is famous among mine and my brother's friends for making the best chocolate brownies. Instead of a wedding cake, she's going to make a giant tower of brownies!
Our dog is going to be 'flower pup' and will open the ceremony by running down the aisle wearing a flower collar - I think it'll be adorable even if she goes rogue and stops to say hello to everyone on the way
Looking forward to reading some of yours!
