The Man I Married

How exactly do you condense ten year's of marriage into a few simple sentences? The ups, the downs, the soul-crushingly hard times and the heart-elevatingly good ones? It's almost impossible not to just reel off clichés about how he's my rock, my reason for living, my soulmate and my best friend. But I've come to learn over the years that clichés are clichés because they're true. All of them. And Gareth is all those things and so much more.

Transforming My Wedding Dress for Our 10 Year Anniversary

In four days Gareth and I will celebrate our TEN YEAR wedding anniversary. I can't quite believe it! A DECADE. With such a momentous milestone coming up, last year I started to think about ways we could celebrate. While moving over the summer, I pulled my wedding dress out of the back of my wardrobe to bring it over to the new house and I realised, bar a few photo shoots at the start of my blogging career (anyone remember these?!) it's pretty much sat there, collecting dust and getting all moth-eaten, since then. It's actually kinda sad when you think about it. You spend such a happy, important day in this dress and then it's either sold on, trashed or, like mine, relegated to the back of a closet.

How I Started Rock n Roll Bride (AKA If I Can Do it, You Bloody Well Can Too!)

March 12, 2018

One of the questions I'm asked the most often is "How did you start Rock n Roll Bride?" There's a short version that I reel off without a second thought, but after reading this post by my friends at Bespoke Bride I was inspired to put digital pen to digital paper and write about it in much more detail. Maybe it will help you if you're just starting out with your businesses, or maybe it'll be nothing more than a welcome distraction from that other thing you're really supposed to be doing right now! Regardless I think it'll be a fun exercise for me to journey back down memory lane for a bit.

If you follow me on Instagram you will already know that my babe Sophie married her Gareth this weekend and I was one of her maids of honour (I shared the role with Ronnie). It was such a wonderful weekend - THE BEST in fact! We laughed, we cried, we did shots, we ate pizza and the spiciest hot dogs, we drunk danced (and some of us drunk fell over), we abused the photo booth, we stole the skull shaped candles from the centrepieces, we got covered glitter...

Made U Look

October 5, 2016

If someone had told me in October 2007 that the blog I had just started to share my ideas for my wedding would not only one day become the full time career of both me and (soon-to-be) husband, but would also be one of the most widely read wedding blogs in the world and would sporn a print magazine sold in stores up and down the country... well I would have told you to stop making up such nonsense! Even writing all that now, it feels totally crazy, like a dream.
