I have not been around much of late as I’ve been busy
revelling in the delights of autumn and basking in the twinkling lights of
Christmas markets (is there anything better?).
But, I just have to share with you the most exciting,
wonderful, stupendous news a bride-to-be could receive...
I won a competition!
And not just any competition – oh no. I won our entire wedding stationery courtesy of Lucy Says I Do.
Let’s just take a few moments to take that in, shall we?
For fellow brides-to-be, this will most likely be a familiar
name as Lucy’s designs have graced many top wedding blogs, websites and
photo-shoots. I have long admired her whimsical designs and have seen the full
range at a couple of Miss Vintage Wedding Affair events. So, naturally when the
competition was advertised I leapt at the chance.
I commented on the new ‘Danish Blue’ design which, because
James’ Grandma was Danish and the traditions she kept are still at the beating
heart of his family, and because it’s downright pretty, is the perfect choice
for our autumn wedding.
It never crossed my mind that I would be the lucky winner of
such an incredible prize, so imagine my delight when I logged onto Facebook on
my dilapidated phone while on a delayed train into London and saw this:
That's me! |
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!
As any bride will know, stationery can be a bit of a chore –
and I’m speaking as a creative sort who can think of nothing better than PVA glue and sequins. But wedding stationery can be a rather intimidating prospect.
So, to have it all sorted now is amazing. And to be able to have such a
stunning design for ours is more than I could have imagined. I am one very
lucky girl indeed.
I’ve included some of Lucy’s photographs of her designs
below, so you can get a sneak peak at what our invitations will look like and
perhaps be inspired for your own wedding stationery, too. The Danish design
comes in two colours, (we’re sticking with the blue, but the pinks and greens
would be gorgeous for summer).

Thank you so much to Lucy Says I Do for this fantastic prize.
We are thrilled and can’t wait to send the invitations so everyone can see how
beautiful they are.
