6 years ago, on August the 2nd 2009 my lovely wonderful hubby and tied the knot. This year August 2015 It falls on the exact same Sunday as it did at the time.
Although it seems like forever ago 6 years is not nearly as long as the rest of eternity, I cant wait till I can proudly say: we have been married 36 years! Our love is stronger and we are more content than we have ever been.
So Throwback 6 years and here are just a few of our wedding pictures...
Getting the groom ready
I designed my own couture Wedding dress with: Couture Bridal Nottingham
We tossed glitter and sequins as confetti
All hands on deck to get my huge dress on the carriage
A Photo with my nan who I love to bits
Surrounded by friends and family at the Nottingham Hilton Double Tree
The two business sisters! with one of my flower girls Naiomi
6 Groomsmen
8 Bridesmaids and 3 flower girls... where is Mia?
I remember I refused to have my Bridesmaids holding posies down the isle, they had birdcages with red and Ivory roses inside and feathers cascading. Our sisters were to hold lanterns with lit candles. I just really wanted to be different.
I remember it being so hot on the day, we struggled for pictures that were not too bright the sun was blazing all day it was so lovely
Roll out the Red carpet
My mum giving her speech
Me giving my speech, I was so nervous. I remember it being so difficult to get up there pushing past all the chairs in my huge dress
White chocolate outside and fresh whipped cream and sponge inside for the bottom two teirs and Double chocolate with cream on the top Mmmmm yummy
Then Began the evening buffet
Here is Mia!!
Music, dancing family and friends, the wedding party was so much fun
Like any glamorous Bride I had a dress change into something fun for the evening
I would love to close by offering up my little black Book of contacts, but most of the companies we used sadly are closed today. Our marriage though still continues and that is what is truly what is most important.
Hugs, and love
