A Beautiful Wedding Day

Last month my gorgeous friend M got married!

It was such a beautiful wedding held in the backyard of M's nanna's house. The weather was perfectly sunny and everyone seemed to have a great time. Instead of having a sit down reception, it was cocktail style which I think is great for those who want more of a layed back, relaxed type of reception.

Heres Mikey and I before we left for the wedding...

M's dress was so pretty. I really liked the beading on the front, the V back and that the dress had straps. I noticed when I went the the bridal shop with my friend Hillness who is getting married later this year that most wedding dresses are strapless, why is that?

M's sisters were her bridesmaids and wore charchol dresses which went really well with the orange and white flowers.

The ceremony was lovely, they even had their friend playing a bongo drum during some parts of the ceremony.

This is my favourite photo that I took during the wedding...

The conffeti was biodegradable which i had never heard of before. If you are married what type of conffeti did you have? rice, paper, rose petals, bubbles?

M's flowers were simple but really pretty!

I love the idea of having cupcakes for a wedding cake. The cake was also decorated in charchol and orange.

The cupcakes were jaffa and blueberry flavoured.

The decorations were white lanterns and fairy lights...

And helium ballons in the pool which looked awesome!

So many people ended up in the pool throughout the night including the bride and groom which was quite a suprise :)

Not us though! We had to catch a taxi home, I doubt the taxi driver would have wanted slopping wet seats.

I bought my dress, or should I say dress and top a few months before the wedding. The top is lace with really lovely details and scalloped sleeves and hem. I bought a bow headband with pearls and dimonties which I thought went quite well with my dress.

Here are some close ups from my outfit...


Overall Mikey and I had a fantastic time at M's wedding. A few of the girls from work were also invited which was lots of fun :)
