Hello!
So this is the last blog post before I become Mrs Holmes. We
have 12 days left, and I just wanted to give a brief update on how we’re
feeling, what’s going on and what we have planned for the future.In terms of planning, I think we’re pretty much there! We’ve ordered the sweets for our favours, so will need to assemble them the day before the wedding, but other than that, everything is sorted. I’ve had my final dress fitting, Anthony has picked up his suit, the rings are ready to go, I’ve reconfirmed with all the vendors, and been over everything with our venue coordinator. Emotionally, we’re both very happy and excited. People keep asking how we’re feeling, and in truth, I’m so ready to be Anthony’s wife. Any nerves or stress that I’m feeling has nothing to do with the commitment we’re making, it’s purely nerves about things going wrong on the day. Overall I’m in a really positive place. Yes I’m stressed, but it’s only because I care so much about the day, and I want it to be perfect for both me and Anthony.
We’ve got a few days booked off together this week, and we’re
taking a short trip to Harrogate, so that we can spend a bit more time together
before the wedding. When Anthony initially suggested it I thought it seemed
unnecessary and just an added expense, but I’m so glad we’re doing it. Panto
finishes today which means I won’t really see Anthony over the next few days. But
now that we’ve planned the trip, we can have some nice quality time together. Anthony
has also got his stag do on the Friday, so it’s good that he’ll be relaxed and
have time to get excited for that.
Plans after the wedding – we are having a Minnie-moon in Disneyland Paris, which I am SO excited for! The day after the wedding, we will be spending the night at the hotel we stayed at on the night we got engaged. It’s also a perfect location, as it is opposite St Pancras, so we’ll only have to cross the road to get to the Eurostar. We’re also seeing Aladdin (as we did the night we got engaged), so it will be a Disney filled week! Our actual honeymoon will be later in the year, and we’re going to go to Italy – currently we’ve agreed that we will go to Trieste, Verona, Venice and Rome.
That’s all I really have to say! Certainly not my longest blog post, but there isn’t much to update on. The long and short of it is that everything is arranged, we’re both very happy, and this time in 12 days we’ll be eating our first meal as a married couple. I’m so excited to be sharing my future with Anthony, and once the excitement and hectic-ness of married life has settled down, I’ll write a post about the day. Now goodbye from Miss Gaunt, for the final time!
