I can’t quite believe that it has already been five months since Matt and I said our vows. How quickly the time has flown! In the lead up to our wedding I had no nerves whatsoever.

When we moved in the house was completely empty save for the pieces below as we couldn’t wait to be rid of the cheap (and pretty useless) furniture which had seen through the two years…

(Edit: If you want to see how it all came together, click to see our English Country Garden Wedding!) It’s been a while since I mentioned anything to do with the wedding and since everything is pretty much planned now and with just under 6 months to go, I thought I’d give an update.
