TYING THE KNOT....As you know we're big fans of Celebrant led weddings after we had a fabulous experience with our own :)

What traditions do you think should be added to a Wedding Day (if any)?

MOTIVATION and a bit of a helping hand. Did you know we have written lots of books? ...

But this one is based on our experience from 15+ years working in the wedding industry, what we learned from planning our wedding and helping with family members' wedding :)

It's on Amazon under "Life Happens, Weducation Helps!" - if you have Kindle Unlimited, it's even FREE.

Enjoy!

ANNIVERSARY INSPO....How do you celebrate yours? E

ANNIVERSARY INSPO....How do you celebrate yours? Every year we travel somewhere to celebrate our Anniversary. It kind of extends the celebration for us and makes us take a significant amount of time out from our day to day.

I (Rachel) usually chooses the destination as the designated travel booker/investigator in our family so one year I decided to bring James to "The Old Country" ....that's Ireland btw 😂

It was lovely for me to tread some familiar ground and introduce James to the place.

We even had a hilarious discussion with a cafe owner in Boyle about Moon Boy and how she always wanted to go to Yorkshire because it's where Yorkie Bars are made (I googled, they are made in York apparently😂)

Many stories, many memories, many midge bites and zero sunburn 😆

How are your celebrating Yorkshire Day? Here's so

How are your celebrating Yorkshire Day? Here's some random Wedding Espresso Yorkshire facts: -

1). I'm not actually from Yorkshire 🤫. I moved here shortly after meeting James on t'interwebs!

2). We found a "Yorkshire Song" poem in an Antique Halifax book shop and used it in our Wedding. James' Brother's rendition of it was AMAZING and is a must watch on our "wedding stories" on our website (let us know what you think!)

3) I could not understand old Yorkshire dialect until I lived in Yorkshire, despite it not really being used in this day and age 😆. I know, bizarre, but I literally couldn't read Wuthering Heights until I lived here a while.

4) It is my parents wedding anniversary! They married the same year James was born so I wondering if there something written in the stars that we'd end up together and here! 😍😘

Hope you have a great weekend.

//BLACK AND WHITE CHALLENGE// Thanks @sig_makeup for the nomination. You know you totally rock!

I must admit I had to Google what this challenge was about! and I gather it's a way for women to support one another and celebrate themselves #WomenSupportingWomen.

We've met so many lovely people in the last two years!

Here's a pic from our wedding. Squidges with our then only Niece. She's turned out to be such an amazing young lady and we miss the family so much!

So people, big yourself up. If you want to jump on this bandwagon, let me know and I'll sort a post out shortly :)

//DIY DON'T// If you could change one aspect of your day what would it be?

If I was to change ONE thing about our wedding it would be the DIY Stationery. Apart from having a super awesome design created by James' Dad they were a MASSIVE money and time sink!

I became really interested in screen printing and found an "easy" method using a Gocco Print.....

Not so easy as the method burned an image into a one use only screen, one use only bulbs in a printer that was no longer being manufactured. The result was extremely expensive stationery and a fair bit of stress trying to get it right!

The Trollstigen Road in Norway with its 11 Hairpin

The Trollstigen Road in Norway with its 11 Hairpins reminds me a bit of this year so far. Very windy, lots of turns and totally unexpected (but in a good way) :-)

We've met (in cyberspace) so many lovely people (Hi!), we've written 2 AWESOME books - Carpe Wedding Diem, Baby! (for wedding planning) and Wedding Business Marketing Secrets (because we like to help all you awesome wedding folk :) ).

What's the most unexpected (but positive) thing to happen to you since March?

We actually chanced on this route during our Norway roadtrip - it was suggested as a must see by the guy at the hire car company! It was AMAZING :)

//GUESS THE FILM// Adventure Is Out There!

This film gets me every time. I think it's the montage of their life together and how powerful their love for each other is.

But I do love the "Adventure Is Out There" quote because it is, isn't it?

We're loving having little adventures.

Which flavour would you choose for a well deserved coffee break?....

In my opinion it was @beaniescoffee Cookie Dough for the win 😀

We still have a bit of Mince Pie left in the cupboard.

Whatever you are doing with your day I hope you don't need as much caffeine as we do! 😂😂😂

//QUIET TIME// How do you spend your quiet time? We like to spend time outdoors.

No, unfortunately we don't have a photographer following us around all the time. These shots were taken by @lauracalderwood. She is a whizz at making your cranky pre-naptime child look happy.

Over the next couple of weeks we're going to be concentrating on a bit more "family" time. Our boy will be going back to Nursery soon so we're making the most of it!

//GUESS THE FILM// "It came with the frame...." There are some days when I realise James' chat up lines come from comedy classics such as this or Red Dwarf! 🤣🤣🤣

Another classic quote is is "Candles....Romantic for the ladies"🤔😂
