One Day Like This...
So, here it is the Crewe big day.
As the cliché goes, it really was the best day of my life, and I have had some pretty good days in my, ahem, 31 years. What can be better than being surrounded by your loved ones, each and every person there to celebrate your marriage (well, that and enjoy the free champagne and food).
From the second I awoke to the second I collapsed on to my pillow I was smiling from ear to ear, in a weird little bubble where nothing else matters, I had no hissy fits, no disasters, no complaints. I suppose this is largely due to the planning and preparation and of course in no small part to my uber organised fairy god-wedding planner Julie Dawson but I had a feeling that nothing could top this day and so I savoured every second.
To be honest, I am not going to write too much about it as I have already had it blogged about over on the lovely rockmywedding and so if you wanted to know a bit more then head over there and check it out in full here and here…
In the meantime here are some pictures from the day by the best ever wedding photographer Jeff Ascough, seriously, the guy is a genius.
