Who'd have thought wedding makeup and dress would feel important?

Having been into booking the venue before the accident D mentioned how easy this wedding malarky was! Simple was how I always wanted it and not being a particularly conventional couple we didn't want the headache most people make. I had been pulling in creative favours from those that way inclined and for those not so it became important in hospital for them to contribute in different ways.
My Auntie Ros had always been a major influence in my life. She has been one of my closest, dearest friends since I was a teenager and sometimes it's difficult to explain just how important she is. Making you feel so loved and like there's a warmth around has always felt so comforting for me so when she offered to buy the dress I loved I was ecstatic. Not only will be feel special as it has come from her but I know when she looks at me in it she will be as proud of me as I am to wear it.
Having re-established alot of friendships after the accident a good pal from the ballet offered to do my makeup and hair. Being such a talented wigs mistress and makeup artist I was chuffed to bits and yesterday had a trial session. Dolly is someone who's so gorgeous to have around and was so enthusiastic about my progress I really loved being around her again. I'm no girly girl so was loving the simplicity of the colours.
Although my focus has changed and I have more time to finish my scrap book (Charlotte purchased this thinking I'd never fill it in!) it's still an organic process I'm still enjoying.
My middle name maybe Zillah but this isn't going to reflect in the bride!
Enjoy your day whatever you're into.
