wedding wednesday adam & his merry men

While my gorgeous girls & I got ready some dapper dudes were busy tarting themselves up too. You though we scrubbed up well?! Take a look at Adam & his boys! :D
Adam wore a Topman suit & his ushers & best man wore ones from Moss Bros. We were going to hire them but it turned out to be cheaper to buy them! Crazy! Our dad's luckily got suits out of this deal too so everyone was happy!
The first thing most people noticed about the guys was their shoes - take a look at these bad boys! We'd got them made online via the 'customize a Converse' page. Each usher had their name embroidered up the back (in case they forgot! :P) & Adam had our wedding date (so no excuse for forgetting our anniversary). We picked a lime green outer & bright pink inner to match our colour scheme & they looked great against their grey suits.
I realised that last week I forgot to mention our stunning flowers. They were all made by Sophie at 'Weeds.' We hadn't wanted our flowers to be too structured & were really close to making everything ourselves so they would look right but Sophie just got us & was really excited to be helping. We were so pleased on the day both with our buttonholes & my bouquets! Yay! Thanks Sophie!
Adam's buttonhole was from Black Market Betties on Etsy, when we saw it we couldn't resist & they even let us send our own pics to match our colours.
*how brill do Adam & Nick (his best man) look together?*
The usher's bow ties were from Topman & Adam was lucky enough to have his custom made by someone I always meet up with at Pitti in Florence, they did a great job & didn't mind us being picky about the dots & green colour, they even understood our Pantone refs! Woop!
I'll end this post with one of my fave shots of Adam from the day. He looks so happy (probably cos he was still an un-married man, he looks more haggard now! :P) I'm such a lucky gal to have nabbed him :)

Ladies what #ldnlunch

Image
After a few deep breaths I plucked up the courage to walk into the Jetlag bar in Fitzrovia & meet some fellow blogging lovelies. I'd first heard about Ldnlunch On Eloise's blog . I'd always wanted to go to a blogger meet so I put my name down straight away. I was a bit nervous when I realised there were about 40 other girls going who's blogs were mainly about fashion, whereas mine is just random ramblings from inside my brain box but decided I'd still go seeing as I had nothing to lose! I arrived expecting to be early but there were already lots of people sitting down for drinks & food so I grabbed a drink & perched on a pooffe. I just ordered a bowl of chips (how adventurous!) but I did pick off the plates around me (yoink! Thanks Lois! ). There were mixed responses to the rather tentacle-y calamari (I have some hilarious snaps of Jazzy eating the tentacles but I'm here to make friends not enemies so those will be shared between the 2 of us &am

Londoners pt1

Image
For Chrimbo Adam gave me a book called "Londoners. The days & nights of London now - as told by those who love it, hate it, live it, left it & long for it" by Craig Taylor. After reading the introduction & before reading any more I decided I'd think about what London & being a Londoner means to me. Even though I picked out bullet points I still got a bit carried away so I'll spread it over a few posts so here goes part 1, I'll start with the one thing that I think of straight away when someone says London to me: ~ the tube is a huge part of London life. It's about sitting on a train for an hour & not knowing what any one's face looks like only their shoes, panic attacks when the train gets stuck in a tunnel without explanation, keeping left, standing on the right spot on a platform so you'll be in front of the doors when they open & also so when you get off you'll be at the exit to the station - even if that exit says no ent

Happy 30th Adam!

Image
Wow what an eventful weekend! Friday was Adam's 30th so we both took the day off work to celebrate together. After sleeping in till 10am Adam finally woke me up asking when I was going to emerge & celebrate his birthday with him - Yoink! So much for the breakfast in bed I had planned. We started the day off as all birthdays should be celebrated - with a trip to Asda! After getting the boring chores out the way we headed to Winter Wonderland (via the Barber) for our annual wander around with a mulled wine in one hand & a Bratwurst in the other all polished off with a pretzel. We stopped off at the Carousel bar to watch the world go by (literally! The whole bar rotates really slowly) & have another mulled wine while putting the world to rights before heading off for dinner in Hammersmith. The first of many surprises for Adam were tickets to Steve Merchant's 'Hello Ladies' tour at the Apollo which was really good fun. We got there quite early so thought we&#
