So this week is all about that dredded guest list. For us it’s been the hardest part (so far), who do we invite, who don’t we. How do you narrow it down, who do you listen to, what if we offend people?

This week I’m keeping it short and sweet. A big top tip. 

This is Your Wedding YOU invite who you want there. 

It’s such a special day you need all those people who are closest to you and mean the most. Some venues have number restrictions on the day event. So your guests or evening guests will feel honoured to be part of such a special day no matter! (I know I do when I get invited to weddings) If they don’t, then there’s not a lot you can do. You will also have budget to deal with which is another big decider. You can go on Pinterest and find so many flowcharts for who to and who to not invite but ultimately, make sure it feels right to you! 

Hope this helps you… and gives you some confidence to go for it!

Ps today is my last birthday as a MISS 😝

So it’s been a super long time like 10months?

not going to lie this year has been a tough one in our house but as they say time is a healer.

So to stop annoying Josh, family members, friends and of course bridesmaids, with my incessant ramblings about the wedding I’ve decided to start writing a series of blog posts all specifically Wedding based! The posts are going to be about suppliers, thoughts, things to think about, things to not think about and mistakes I’ve made in the “wedmin process”

This is the first post of. #weddingwednesday by me!

I hope you enjoy and can find this series useful. If you’re on your journey or Your just starting your journey!

This weeks post is being written whilist I sit here sipping on an ice cold G&T and the pool at my feet! Yes I am super lucky enough to be writing to you from the south of France. I wanted to let you know about an amazing village we found today called ‘Saint Paul De Vence’ wow this place is so beautiful and full of amazing art, sculptures and the a view to remember. Having been to this region for so many years not going here in one of my early visits feels like I’ve missed out! So I wanted to shar this beautiful French village with you all!

One to add to the list of places to visit! 

I have had a bit of time lately to reflect on my first year of blogging, this has been on and off with my blogging but an amazing year it had been! 

Recently I’ve realised what I originally set out to blog about is harder than I originally thought, and actually blogging about what I’ve been getting upto is so much more fun, adventures food and interesting things I generally just want to share with you all. It also gives me the chance to reflect on what I’ve been getting upto! 

So in that light I have changed my blog look, I hope you like it, making it more fresh modern and fun! Here is a really nice quote that I feel summarises why I have changed it up!

I was super lucky last week to be able to get away to Paris on a long girls weekend away! We had so much fun exploring the beautiful city and the excitement of Disney! 

Here are a few highlights from the trip!

We managed to get round a whole lot of Paris in the short amount of time we were in the city! We took a bus tour which was great to hop on and off to be able to see all the sights! I can highly recommend this if you don’t have much time! 

Whilst we were in Paris we also got to taste some of the most amazing food, and we both felt that the food was pretty reasonable. We started the trip with mussels, followed by creme brûlée. We also got to have a delicious fondue and on our last day crepes! Savoury and sweet of course! Oh wait I can’t forget the deliciousness of the Parisian macaroon, boy they were delicious!

Of course how can I miss the wonderful world of Disney! I must be the biggest kid around, I had so much fun running around, meeting characters and pretending that I  was 10 again! 

… I hope you get to experience the wonderful world of Paris! I am for sure going back.

With the amazing weather we are having in England at the moment it has become so easy to pop a pause on that gym membership and get outdoors to make the most of our weather and work out whilst saving a few bob. Here I wanted to give a few great ideas to help you feel inspired to get out and enjoy it.

1. Saturday morning Park run – this is a great run for all abilities, they are all over the country and is run by volunteers, it’s a great way to meet people who run around the same pace as you and also to enjoy some of the glorious sunshine we have been having! Find your nearest park run here.

2. Circuits at the park – gather your friends or go alone, get a few exercise movements together – squats, burpies, climbers, Emily Skye has some great ideas here. Get a pumping playlist and either in your headphones (if alone) or through your speaker (if with others) and create your own workout. Try to make sure your workout uses a variety of muscle groups and pushes you.

3. Get on your bike – a brilliant way to get fit while commuting, using your exercise as your journey this can help you save time too. Simple as that and effective to!
