Four months, three weeks & two days

Well that was a productive weekend.  I was back in the shire to get some stuff done for that wedding thingy that's coming around in 4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days time.

I went to Stamford florist Miss Pickering who is doing my wedding flowers, it transpires that I'd underestimated the budget needed for 2x small bouquets and 8x button holes. But she was very nice and went through it all with me, and I'm very excited to see what she comes up with out of the flowers that will be in season in September. My only stipulation was to have lavender feature throughout, and that the button holes are all different.

Or maybe I should be doing my flowers like the Whitestuff window display, where they'd taken old computer technology and rampaged it with faux blooms (with a stuffed cat eating a mouse).

I'm not sure I get the relevance of the tins of tomatoes, but I won't argue with a shop that serves complimentary sweet tea to its customers.




I also went for a nice walk around Toll Bar with the fiance's parent's dog, who absolutely refused to go into the water and would not hear a word about it.

And I had a catch up with a friend at a local pub which featured a very cool custom made car and very rude design on my glass of diet coke.

And I've also finished making my guest book for the wedding. 

 I took a kraft paper scrapbook from Paperchase and filled it with mini coloured envelopes glued to the pages.

The idea is that our guests write us their note or message on a piece of kraft card, pop it in an envelope and seal it shut with one of these personalised stickers from Vintage Princess on Not On The High Street.
