Happy New Year everyone! Oh wow doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun!! I hope you all enjoyed your Christmas and New Year break as much as I did – I had some much needed down time with Mr E (and Cheeseburger, of course) and feel thoroughly refreshed and…. well, quite simply raring to go! I…

Here’s to 2013!   Amy x

Today Mr E and I celebrate our 2nd Anniversary! It’s hard to believe it has been a whole 2 years since I married the man of my dreams, the man I fell in love with the moment I saw him (clichéd but true) I love celebrating the day we started our married life and I equally…

2012…what a year! It is hard to comprehend all that has happened to my little blog in the space of 12 months…. and how much I have each and every one of you followers, contributors, sponsors and stoppers by to thank for it. To celebrate, the final Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons of the year is…

Happy Christmas Eve everyone  – only 1 more sleep until Christmas!! And to celebrate I have a little Christmas Wedding Inspiration.

The wide world of the web has been abounding this week with the most beautiful Yule Tide ideas for DIY projects, soirees, refreshments and of course weddings. and I have selected my faves for this…

I am so excited to be bringing today’s real wedding, which comes courtesy of the lovely Christina from Chrisp Pictures. Simone and Cole were married in October at the incredibly impressive Campbell Point House and managed to achieve the perfect mix of relaxed elegance, befitting a beach wedding, but with more than a hint of old world glamour…… Christina…

Last week’s Chic Vintage Bride was all about the pomp and splendour of the fancy and frivolous 1953 wedding of Jacqueline Bouvier, whereas today’s post is all about this happy couples beaming smiles……  Have you ever seen a more gleeful pair? That photo just makes me happy! I wish I could share the who, where…

And if you thought, as I did then, that nothing could surpass it – just wait until you see ‘Still…
