About Me

My photo
Since I got engaged I got the wedding bug. I love all things to do with weddings, they make me go all giddy inside. After my wedding I expected this to go away but it didn't. If I had the courage to change my career I would love to be a wedding planner. This blog serves to provide me with my wedding 'fix'. One night on our honeymoon my husband looked up into the dark sky and said to me "The sky's clear tonight. There are no stars." I looked up, following his gaze and replied "There's one. One star shining bright". He looked at it said "That's for us". (Yes, it is me in the black 'n' white profile photo)

Choosing your Bridesmaids

Bridesmaids are not just to walk down the aisle in a pretty dress but they are to help you and to share in the fun of planning and preparing your wedding. Choose your bridal party carefully. Don’t just choose people who have chosen you as relationships change. Which of your friends/family would you call if you were in a crisis? They should be your bridesmaid.

Who would put you first?
Who would not complain even if you wanted them to wear a pink tutu?
Who would notice the finer details such as your dress needing straightening out so it looks pristine in your photos?
Who would be available and willing to join you on numerous dress shopping exbiditions?
Who would give you honest advice when you need it most?
Who would be the ones not rolling their eyes when you can't decide between raspberry and cranberry coloured napkins?
Who would help to keep your stress levels under control?
Who would help restore your enthusiasm when you just can't face another thought about weddings?
Who will never bore of wedding talk?
Who will help you smile through the tears?
Who will screech with excitement when you have found THE dress?

Yes, take your time to make a very important decision that you don't want to regret.
