27 Dresses

It seems its Wedding Season. The bug has bitten and at least once a month for the past year my husband and I have dressed up, put on make-up (well hopefully that was just me) and headed out the door with a present under our oxter. While working the wedding circuit, we have seen more of our country's beauty, met some lovely people and definitely benefitted from the experience.  

I absolutely LOVE weddings! I love the romance of it all, the ceremony, the nervousness of the groom before his bride sweeps down the aisle, the little touches that make each wedding unique and most of all the CHAMPAGNE! (I'd like to think I'm joking here...)

We’ve been to almost every type of wedding. We’ve had our fair share of elegant, no-expense spared extravaganzas of white taffeta and canapes, as well as our budget beaters with homemade decorations and in-house catering (ours!). I also had the privilege of being a bridesmaid at a gothic wedding which was a remarkable experience of blood-red dresses, burlesque jewellery and a kick-ass playlist.

Another thing I love about weddings is the pure happiness the oozes out of everywhere. Singles feel wistful, couples reaffirm their love and newlyweds think back on their big day. Its purely dreamy and makes you feel happy in a time when we’re bombarded with so much gruesome news. A little window of bliss that one can vicariously be a part of, even if just for a moment.
