A BEACH WEDDING - OH SO PERFECT...

THE WEDDING - ADAM & BRON

..........but let's start at the very beginning!

The wedding plans started a loooong while ago, but the wedding fun kicked off a few weeks ago.
Below is a photo of the "Hens Night" invitation, it's red and lacy and oh so cute - hand made with love by Danni, one of Bron's attendants.

Also the invitation hand made (with the assistance of a computer and printer!) with lots of love by Bron and her mum, along with the place cards for the guest tables - these were put together by Bron's mum Kay - Oh My Gosh, the hours that Kay spent doing these you wouldn't believe and what a gorgeous end result - these were definitely made with L.O.V.E!
Rose petal holders also made with love (though a big dose of patience was required!), there are tricky little things to get together!! But cute - annoyed I forgot to take a pic with them filled with the rose petals from Kay's garden.

Bron and Adam asked me to give thanks before our meal - see below the blessings we shared.

Bron shopped for a guest book and wasn't impressed with what was on offer so asked if I could "scrap" a book for the occasion - The guest book, like not other, personalised for Adam and Bron.
THE HEN'S NIGHT

Then came the Hens' Night - Bad Taste and Good Fun!!!
Bron really enjoyed our bad taste outfits, the fun little gifts and games!

The "Awkward Sisters" (that's a story for another time :). I think we may have taken "Bad Taste" to a new level!

Pink, move over - Tracy's taking over! Pink was the theme for the night and that included the food!
The girls decorated the pink strawberry cheesecake - yummmmmo!

One of the fun games was to create a wedding dress from toilet paper!!! Below the winning team. How impressive is that "gown"? This team did an awesome job.

The three "brides" and their gowns. My team decked out Tulle - sorry Bean, we let you down big time!!
Tulle thought it was the best dress and wanted to wear it all night - unfortuntely the quality of the paper didn't allow that, it fell apart in minutes!!

THE BUCK'S GOLF DAY

The boys opted for a non-traditional Buck's get-to-gether and headed for the golf course for the afternoon. This was followed by dinner and to the paceway for the Gold Cup.

And away they went..

A great day was had by all - so I was told!

THE BEACH TRY OUT

Here's Tulle who was the bestest ever helper, sitting and waiting for the next instruction! She stayed the whole afternoon and couldn't have been more helpful!
We trialled several different set ups before we were happy!




We're all happy and resting up - only took about FOUR HOURS :)
