Wedding Wishes

Dress: Jones&Jones 
Shoes: New Look
Earrings: TopShop 

It was my youngest dance teachers wedding on Friday, she had it in a village just outside Colchester. It was so beautiful to see her now married, as I've grown-up watching her dance and after her retirement having her teach me. I was so happy the weather was lovely, making her glow even more, she looked truly stunning and even more like a princess in real life!

I wore a dress from Jones&Jones, I've looked on their website before and seen people wear their designs and I always think they're gorgeous and when I saw this dress half price on the website I couldn't help myself! I wasn't disappointed either, it arrived two days after my order and is very high quality. The petticoat skirt sticks out just enough and it fitted me perfectly. I don't think I've ever received more complements about a dress in my life, I'd definitely buy from them again.  They only have a small range but I would recommend looking at it if you wanted a formal looking dress, especially as they have their summer sale on.

A Beautiful Day

On Sunday I went to my cousins Sam's wedding in Chigwell Hall, it was absolutely beautiful and had a real princess, fairy tale feel to it. We had three beautiful courses, and where supplied with endless wine, champagne and pimms. During the best mans speech instead of toasting champagne we did shots of Strawberry Tequialla, my new favourite drink! And as they laid out a bottle per table we continued to drink the liqueur into the night (has anyone tried this before, the only liqueur I normally drink is baileys, but after last night, I definitely want to try some more!) 

Dress: Choice 
Earings: TopShop

I also wore two red flowers in my hair to the side of the curly bun that you can't see in this photo. 

I always think dressing for a wedding can be hard, there are so many things you have to avoid, creams, whites, cut-outs, tight dresses, anything to short, lace. I think you have to go classy and elegant. I'd definitely wear this dress again for a summer wedding, but its not to formal meaning I could wear it for a meal, bbq or even the pub, perfect!
