What A Wonderful Wedding!
The day we’d all been waiting for finally came on Saturday –
Jim and Jess’ wedding! With our best dresses on, our hats securely fastened and
our
confetti in tow the SP team made our way to the church to celebrate the big
day!
As I’m sure everyone knows the weather at the weekend was
glorious! It was the perfect day for a wedding. The sun was shining, the sky
was blue and love was most definitely in the air. When it was time we made our
way in to the church which was cool and fresh and lovingly decorated with the
flowers from Rose’s garden.
The flowers looked wonderful and really created the feel of
a summer countryside wedding…which it was! Well done flower ladies! You did a fabulous job!
The whole ceremony was stunning. Jess wore a beautiful vintage
dress (which we all got a good peek at as she walked down the aisle) and the
pair looked perfect together as they took their vows. It was a truly wonderful
ceremony.
As all the guests made their way outside they were greeted
by baskets full of confetti held by the bridesmaids and flower girls.
As this
was the wedding of Mr and Mrs SP it wouldn’t be complete without a
commemoration confetti shot would it? And it was definitely a confetti moment
to remember… as the new Mr and Mrs Bubb walked down the path out of the church
the guests lined each side and showered them with a spectrum of colourful
confetti!
After every last petal of confetti had been thrown it was
time to head to the reception! We all jumped in our cars (not as easy as it
sounds in a dress and heels) and headed off to party the night away.
The reception was held in a marquee back at Jim and Jess’
new house. As we got to the marquee we were greeted by glasses of Pimm’s and
lemonade – perfect for the summer’s day we were all enjoying.
One thing we were all particularly excited to see was Jim’s
potato box bar! The finished result went over and above what we all were
expecting – it looked so great and was definitely a talking point of the
evening.
As the sun went down we all headed inside the marquee for a
spot of food. Remember those table place names Jess had been working hard to
make? Well they looked superb!
The tables (that were named after the different confetti
mixes remember?) looked brilliant too and really got people talking - I was sat
on ‘Summer Sky’.
With good grub, good grog and good guests we all had a
wonderful evening. The speeches were also a highlight of the evening with a
lovely speech from Jess’s dad and a traditionally witty speech by Jim’s two
best men!
As the sun finally set we all headed to the dance floor (that
seemed to be lit up by stars) to
watch Jim and Jess take their first dance as husband and wife. As the live band
played everyone began to join in and that was it, the dancing had started for
the evening. Luckily Jim had been kind enough to think of all the ladies whose
feet might have been sore after tottering around in high heels all day. There
was a suitcase full of flip flops at the side of the dance floor with a clever
note that read “When you feel your feet get sore, grab a pair so you can dance
some moreâ€.
Once again congratulations Jim and Jess, it was a perfect day. We hope you enjoy your
honeymoon!
Oh and thanks for the homemade chutney wedding favours –
they are supper scrummy!
Love as always SP xx
