I was super excited (obviously!) and wanted to share the big day with everyone. But since it was her big day and not mine I didn't want to invade her privacy by plastering it all over my blog.
So I got to thinking about the little parts of the day that tell a story without invading people's privacy. I know that many brides now think along the same line and have pictures of their shoes and dress etc taken before hand but as a guest I took some different shots that I thought I would share them with you.
After all the tears were dried and mascara reapplied it was time for the wedding breakfast; lamb shank on a bed of mustard mash. My eyes were bigger than my belly but what I managed (I did have a starter too!) was super yummy!
So here's my attempt at putting their fairytale day into anonymous pictures...
With a little rest and some drinks in the sunshine I managed to find some room for this amazing banoffee dessert which I shared with the BF... Thankfully he ate most of it otherwise I would have burst!
Even at weddings I gladly swap my champagne for a nice cup of peppermint tea after the meal. How very British!
Although I couldn't eat the cake (it wasn't gluten free) it did look absolutely beautiful and the mint choc chip layer (yip you read that right!) went down a storm with the other guests.
So after the speeches and the cutting of the cake the bride and groom had their first dance under these dreamy chandeliers...
Me being me I came prepared with some sensible sandals! Good job too after that feast because I definitely needed a work out!
Just like me the BFF loves her tea so these cute and quirky (just like her!) favours at the end of the were a perfect finishing touch :)
So as the happy couple embark on their new chapter in life I would just like to finish up this post by thanking them for including me in their big day and wishing them a life time of happiness and a very sunny honeymoon!!
With all my love L xx
