Yesterday saw the marriage of my wonderful School friend Louise to her wonderful partner James…These two could not be a more perfect match for each other and I can’t quite put in to words how magical the entire day was, and how delighted I am for them.
Whoever organised the weather got it spot on, it was perfect and just added to the beauty of the day. Held at the Merchant’s Hall in Clifton, the day just screamed Louise and James, with all the personal touches and quirky little moments.
I spent the day catching up with my school friends, and realising once more, just how lucky I am to have such a fabulous bunch of friends; bets are now on as to who will be the next to get engaged, though the way that lot were carrying on, it won’t be anytime soon 😉
I also had a mini stalker ALL day! A little girl, the second she came in to the ceremony decided I was a Princess, and indeed announced this, several times during the proceedings! After that, every where I went, much to the amusement of pretty much everyone, came the cry of “PRINCESS” followed by little feet running after me! Ah well, if the crown fits…
Photos, from top to bottom:
Best Friend and I before we went; Her dress is from Monsoon and the shoes are Hush Puppies c/o Sarenza. I wore a Lavish Alice dress, Shoes from Next and Daisy crown from New Look.
Blurry shot of husband and wife! The bride looked STUNNING. My photos from the day are, as you can see, terrible, but plenty were taken and more will emerge!
Family shot.

Hazel and Leni, two more of my oldest friends.
The stunning grounds.
At the wedding there was a chap called the “Roving Artist” who walked around with black paper and mini scissors doing silhouettes of all of the guests. They were incredible to watch being done, and amazingly accurate!
The reception was held at a nearby tennis club and had touches of the Louise we knew and loved! As a tribute to our sixth form days there were plenty of balloons and a vat of cocktail umbrellas. I left before things really kicked off, but what time I spent there was amazing and I wish nothing but the very best to James and Louise who will be jetting off to St Lucia for a couple of weeks on Monday!
