We have finally managed to hand deliver most of our save the dates - due to the high cost of stamps - so I can now share them on here without ruining the surprise!
I knitted our little bride and groom in our wedding colours over the summer and then we took them away to Kassiopi, Corfu with us for a little photoshoot - Henry my fiance loves taking photographs with his big camera!
Kassiopi is our favourite place in the world and where we would have got engaged, I now understand, had Henry been patient enough to wait another 8 months for our holiday! Luckily after 10 years he didn't want to wait any longer and we got engaged on our trip to Lincoln (one of our other favourite places) in February, which means we've had a whole year to enjoy being engaged before getting down to the serious planning, and we also managed to get our dream venue for the date we really wanted.
Being quite an excitable and organised person we have already booked our venue and photographer and I have ordered my beautiful dress. Similarly to the venue it was the first I saw and I fell in love with it. I was sensible enough to try on another 15 afterwards but nothing compared. I'm hoping it will be ready in about 3 months time and can't wait to try it on in the right size!
Now we're into the new year we have lots more planning to do, starting with finding music - hopefully a band! Other than that it will be a year of making, starting with our Knitted Button Bunting which will feature in my next post!
Our lovely little button bride and groom will feature proudly on top of our wedding cake on the big day :)
