Sneaky Peek #2

Our Wedding Invitations!

They have arrived!

And they look fantastic!

I want to completely and utterly recommend Special Occasion Stationary!! Sarah kept me informed through the entire process and the invitations look completely fantastic! They are so professionally made and beautifully printed.

I’m really, really happy with them!

H2b thinks they’re fantastic too! I text him to tell him they’d arrived and straight away asked me to send him a photo. He’s really excited, he said, ‘Now we can invite people!’

I snapped quite a few photos of them (I’m saving the big reveal for when they’ve been sent out to guests) and to make sure I got the right angle I did a bit of creative photography.

I used a small torch to light up the diamantés, surrounded the invitations with white card to give that clear, white background and then lay flat on the floor to get that perfect angle.

The invitations make me feel as if the wedding is right around the corner! Only 8 months (and 4 days) until I become a wife and I have a husband! That’s like being a proper grown up!

I’m so so excited!

Honeymoon!

We’ve Booked Our Honeymoon!!

Days to go: 312

I am so excited!! We have booked it, paid the deposit and now we’re pending paying the rest of it!

I am so so excited! I’ve been hop skipping and jumping all the way home! And h2b has been grinning too! We booked the holiday using my married name too! That was exciting in itself!

We will be going on a cruise! We wanted to see lots of different places and have a lot of different things to do, we thought a cruise would be the best way.

After speaking to the travel agent, we looked up the reviews of the trip on trip advisor and other review websites and they all said the holiday is fantastic! They talked about balloon rides and camel rides, h2b was hooked!

I am so completely excited! This honeymoon just makes our marriage even more exciting!

And it was fairly exciting to start with!

I have decided to travel under my married name. I went online and a lot of people have said not to do that. However, my passport has run out anyway and I will need to apply for a new passport regardless. I feel that I may as well get a passport in my married name and then I won’t have to change it later.

We didn’t get travel insurance from the travel agent because we wanted to have a shop around before we were sure which insurance company we went with. They did offer a good rate of £42 for the both of us, which covered illness, loss of luggage and things, and delayed flights. We’re still going to shop around first.

I may not have mentioned this before but I’m so excited!!! Yay!! We’re going on honeymoon!!!
