Wed in London

Eeee! Actually, Rach has less than a month but let’s round it up and keep quiet…  The engagement shoot pictures are incredible, no?

♥

It’s the final month!

We’ve now entered the final month (3 weeks to be precise!) before the wedding; this makes me very happy….the time is flying by!

Hen and Stag Parties

The Mr and I have had our respective ‘dos’; him taking the trip up to Newcastle for a drunken (and likely debaucherous) weekend and me to Chester for a fabulous girly, bubbles filled weekend.  All of the girls made my weekend fantastic and thank you so much to Gem for organising AND juggling being a new mum!

Engagement Shoot

{Kat Hill}

A couple of weeks ago, the Mr and I headed over to Hampstead Heath to meet with our photographer, the amazing Kat Hill for our engagement shoot.  We were both a little bit nervous, not keen on having our photographs taken or ‘posing’ but Kat was incredible – made us feel comfortable and made the shoot enjoyable.

Cake

The Mr and I originally decided that we weren’t that fussed about a cake but we are now having two!  At the weekend we went off to Neal’s Yard at Borough Market to choose CHEESE, they were incredibly helpful and gave us lots of options to try, yum!

Ceremony and Music

Last week – I set us a challenge; to have the ceremony readings and music decided by the end of the Bank Holiday…. and we managed it!  The Mr found a perfect reading and we’ve chosen our ceremony music.  Another job ticked off!

Dress

In the last couple of weeks I have had 2 fittings at Angelica Bridal, after a couple of alterations my dress is ready!  Trying on MY dress for the first time since making my decision, I thought I would feel very nervous – I didn’t, I felt super smiley, comfortable and ready to get married!  Can not wait to wear it! {BHLDN / Craftsy}

Jewellery

I have been trying to make a decision about my jewellery – searching for pieces that would be right!  I have been incredibly lucky to have a fabulous friend who has helped out with my headpiece and I’ve had some lovely and thoughtful gifts from my parents and from my sister means my jewellery is all sorted!

… And Finally

We’re now starting to get into finalising lots of details; we’ve sorted favours, place names, cake table (thanks to Nim for the loan of the cake stand!).

Next up – finalising the flowers, the Mr’s shoes and probably the most difficult job, the table plan!

Love, Rach xx
