Unsurprisingly, it also makes an awesome wedding venue, and I am super excited to share Stephanie and Jim's big day with you today! But before we crack on, can we all please stop for one minute and bask in the beauty that is Stephanie's Monique Lhuillier dress? I mean, goodness!

I think we can all look back on those times and realise that peer pressure was actually a form of bullying, dressed up with a more socially acceptable name. And bullying sucks. Period.
