wedding week

My baby sister gets married on Friday! So it’s crazy-busy wedding week in all of my family members’ households – spraytans and pedicures to have, placecards to print, speeches to write, motorbike-riding-and-fishing-by-bucks to be done, chocolates to make… My own to-do list involves shopping for lanterns and ribbons, sewing paper doilies, making pretty paper tags, painting chalkboard signs, cutting up placecards, creating table numbers… That’ll teach me for volunteering! So, as with this week, next week will be a slow-blog week. But if you need me, I’ll be the crazy girl flailing and wailing about in a pile of tissue paper making way too many pom poms… Being the total opposite of wedding obsessed, I thought I’d post some pretty pics to get me in the right head space!

Psst: Big thank you to everyone’s comments on my last post. As soon as I pressed “publish” I wanted to unpublish because I thought it might be insensitive to talk about other people’s heartache. And yet, everyone was so sweet and helpful, I’m now going to bundle up all your words, links and love and send it off to those who’ve lost so much when the time is right. I think they’ll appreciate it. x

The couple is so cute and cool and casual (my kind of wedding!), the dress is perfection, the location heaven, the yellow shoes and striped socks are adorable, the barn gorgeous, the yellow cake a sweet surprise and I love a fabric backdrop done well as this one was. I tried to get my sister to do the same thing, but she decided not too. Good thing that, or else there’d be something else I’d be doing this week! If you like drooling over wedding pics, spend a few days lost in Jose Villa’s gorgeous images}
