26 days to go!
Weekend number 2 of wedding planning done and many, many boxes ticked! So glad to meet people who do their jobs well and can make such a difference to others. On Saturday we turned our house into a florists - and then made huge lists of flowers for table decorations and church flowers. Just need to order the flowers and hope that my descriptions of 'green spiky' foliage will be enough! On Sunday, Chloe and Ed's banns of marriage were read in church - it was really lovely to have Ed's mum with us. For her it made everything feel very real - being able to see the church and the field and imagine the day. J gave an excellent talk on how we should live our Christian lives at home - perfect for Chloe and Ed to hear as a reminder of what they are committing to. Over lunch we discussed a lot of the practicalities of the day and how various people would be getting to the service etc... and what to do with the tandem and what about wheelchairs. So many things to think about. Chloe, Ed, Paul and Claire then went to see Roy - the pigman. He was so, so, so helpful and had thought of everything that was on our list. They went and visited the pigs and had photos - thankfully not with the actual pig!!!! Chloe and Ed then met with J to discuss the service - again a great meeting with everything sorted. So this week will be full of emails to confirm and drawings of marquees etc.......
My week is looking slightly calmer - more physio, more dress fitting, shopping for shoes for Ben ( laceless, scrappy, school shoes won't do), flower arranging, bible study, maybe hair cutting...... So thankful.
