WEDDING CELEBRATIONS

 WEDDING CELEBRATIONS

This year we are lucky enough to be invited to my husbands's ex-PA's second marriage.  She's been part of our family since my boys were born and 2 years old.  Her children were a bit older and her daughter used to babysit our boys.  She worked for my husband for 15 years, she saw more of him during the day than I did.  

She has now found a lovely man and is now married as of this past weekend.  I also designed their wedding invitations.

Wedding Day

Congratulations Mr & Mrs

Congratulations to a very special couple that got married recently we were privileged to be part of their special day and our eldest son was the groom's, best man.

As I had designed their wedding invitations I knew what colour the bridesmaids were wearing that's why there's a touch of burgundy roses on the card.
