A Perfect Day

After much anticipation my lovely friends Lucy and Olly tied the knot on Saturday. Congratulations to you both - it really was a perfect day!

Thankfully the rain held off so we could pose for lots of photographs in the sunshine, and enjoy a glass of champagne (or two) in the beautiful grounds of Makeney Hall in Derbyshire to toast the happy couple.

As promised, here are some pictures of the dresses. I'm sure you'll agree the bride looked stunning in her ruched ivory gown. Both the bouquet and veil were encrusted with tiny crystals which shimmered in the sunlight as she made her way down the aisle to John Lennon's Love.

The bridesmaid dresses are by BHS. The simple prom dress shape suited us all and I love the shade of green, which was used as a theme for the wedding and included on the cravats, cake and favours. I had a fabulous time being a bridesmaid and was so pleased to be asked.





















It is a busy time for weddings at the moment and I know a lot of people who are in the process of planning their own big day - so here are Marie Claire's Top 50 Bridesmaid Dresses to offer a bit of extra inspiration...
