Hopefully over the coming days we can filter through the rest of our boxes and finally have some spaces upstairs that are unpacked and sorted 🤞

He just loves to feature on the ‘gram 🐶 Isn’t it so lovely to have some bright and sunny mornings, apposed to those drizzly ones!

It’s monday again and boy was my weekend a mixed one. Rhodie had a walk and a groom on Saturday. We also spent a solid 3 hours on sorting out our number plates being stolen! Not what we wanted to be doing. Sunday we managed to get our wardrobes delivered and I am over the moon to finally have hanging space and some organisation going on upstairs. But that didn’t come without its troubles, including ripping two thirds of my nail off whilst trying to lift a heavy box. I’m now unable to finish any of the building and unfortunately that falls down to my husband 🙈

How was your weekend? As eventful as mine turned out to be?

It works soooo well with our already bought living room furniture and will look amazing once we paint 🙌🏻 Do you think that’s my favourite saying, because that’s all I keep saying 😂 Done with these bland white walls!

Still very much in love with our rustic dining table from next as we were when we bought it a couple of years ago! And thankfully we managed to get 4 more matching chairs 2 years later, since we no longer have our booth! Perfectly compliments our new kitchen diner! I keep saying it, but we just need colour now!

No transformation Tuesday here this week, but hope No transformation Tuesday here this week, but hopefully next!🤞 We still have a 5 day wait until our wardrobes are delivered and that’s our biggest set back at the mo. Both bedroom 2 & 3 are full of clothes and unpacked boxes 📦 As daft as it may sound, getting these new wardrobes should be a real relief and the turning point for our upstairs! 
-
Aside from that, we still have lots of pieces to shop for our lounge and bedroom! If only that’s what I could do all day rather than work, ay! Where’s your favourite place to shop furniture? I’d love to hear your recommendations 🙌🏻

It’s a good morning Monday from me 🌊 The beau It’s a good morning Monday from me 🌊 The beautiful Sunday sunshine certainly made up for the drizzle we had on Saturday. We soaked up the sunshine and of course the sea breeze, trying to get out of the house, within reason ofcourse. We strolled up and down the seafront several times yesterday and Rhodie was well and truly knackered after. 
I hope you all had a lovely weekend, and a even better week. I myself am so excited for next weekend as it means we finally get our bedroom furniture, including the hotly anticipated wardrobes 🙌🏻

Thankfully we managed to get it done pretty quickly much to our delight. Having a puppy and 20 odd patio slabs for him to do his business on got pretty tedious pretty quickly! 
Now to start the garden planning - I’m actually looking forward to getting green fingered this spring! 👩‍🌾

Wedding | Choosing your guest list

Another Wednesday, another wedding post.

I have just tipped under the 18month mark, and so the wedding guest list is being picked at, in time for sending Save The Dates.

I am behind schedule, however have no fear, I have plentyyy of time remaining. The guest list. This is when you realise you have far too many family, friends and acquaintances you need to invite, and before you know it, the magic number has been and gone and you’re considering not inviting your own sister just so you don’t upset someone else.

I will not deny, this is tricky, and mind fizzling. But there is a way to make it a little easier on yourself and hubby. Some tips follow.

Children or No Children? 

This is worth considering first. It’s another person to feed and fit into your day. Establish whether children are invited or not and apply for all. You’ll find it harder explaining why some are invited and others not if you don’t apply the same rule for everybody.
Remember, some parents like the prospect of a kid free zone.

Establish your bridal party

Bride, Groom, parents of the Bride, parents of the Groom, Bridesmaids, Groomsmen, flower girls, page boys. I think that’s it? This is your wedding. It wouldn’t happen without all of these. Of course you need to count them into any numbers, including yourself and hubby! 

Budget 

Have this front of mind. It can easily get out of hand if going over the number by one or two. That one or two extras can tip you over budget by hundreds of pounds in food, drink, favors and invites. Be realistic.

Be strict 

Don’t be afraid to say no. If you’re only inviting because someone says so, or it will make someone else happy,  say no. It’s your budget, your day and your wedding. You’ll only be annoyed when paying out for that person.

Can you imagine them not being involved? 

When choosing your guest list ask yourself this question every time. If you can’t imagine being without them on the day, then they should be on the guest list. If you’re inviting them for the sake of it, or feel like you should, add them to a maybe pile and send if you have space. There is no harm in having a backup guest list when others can’t make it, or you can afford to add a couple more. 

Remind yourself it’s your wedding. 

It can get a little touchy when discussing guest lists and who’s not made the cut. Don’t feel you have to justify. Weddings are an expense and no one should ever expect to be invited. Make sure you are surrounded by those who you cherish and ensure no one is sidelined for others who ‘have’ to be invited because someone else says so. 

How did you find creating your guest list? 
Have any tips I should have on here?
