LITTLE BADGES - WEDDINGS.....I DO

Hi

The virtual kettle's on..... So while I let it boil I just have this to say

Well I awoke to the news (is it really news) that Peter and Jordan are supposed to be splitting up. 3 Yrs after getting married, 2 kids together later and little Harvey , and the end is nigh apparently. I am a little surprised given that Peter Andre is about to release his brand new album after years away. What a terrible time to be going through a break up..... Surely he could do without this kind of media attention at a time like this. Maybe as a form of therapy, they could film their divorce.

It reminded me of the day I got married to my beautiful wife. I had managed to escape the pressures of getting married for quite some time, always in my mind to get married to my beautiful now wife. In the words of Take that..... ' Today this could be....the greatest day of my life '. And as sickening as it sounds, It was so far the greatest day of my life, apart from my own birth I suppose. Everything else pails into insignificance. And as I stood there in front of my wife and declared my vows to her, I heartfelt, meant every word of it.

Sometimes I think people can get so immersed in the show of the whole day and forget what is actually important. Your commitment to each other. That moment when you exchange rings, clears your mind of the wine bill, venue hire, stress of what the parents want from the day.

We planned everything to the last detail and enjoyed every single moment except from a few hairy moments at the start of the process when we had to forcefully remind outside parties whose, actual day it was.

We thrived on the organisation, the wall chart plans, the details, the wishes and desires of each other, the feel we wanted for our day, and all the little little details that leave the day memorable for yourself and of course your very important guests that have given up their time to help you celebrate. We loved the fact that our parents helped making our own confetti, we loved filling the little favours boxes with fun little sweets, we were over the moon that some of our guests were hyper on a mixture of sugar and alcohol from the retro flying saucers provided at the bar, but above all we loved making the whole day very personal to ourselves and to our guests.

Recently we had an order from someone wanting to add that personal touch to their wedding, and we provided each guest with their own badge to commemorate the day. Another wedding, a civil partnership between two lovely ladies resulted in us providing badges for the guests to give to the couple which was simply a badge with MRS & MRS on it.

We have so many lovely stories from customers who have used us to help celebrate their wedding days and we feel very priveledged to be asked to supply for them.

Thank you to all our married customers and to our future married customers. Enjoy your big day.

Well, I can hear the kettle has just finished boiling so

Milk and sugar?
