Apologies for my absence over the last few weeks guys, but I think I have a pretty good reason for being a little preoccupied as of late... As you can see in the above image, I got married..!

 It all happened 2 days ago - I married my boyfriend of 5 years Nick (aka Chappy) in a lovely, simple ceremony at a local winery. After a slight initial hiccup where the car I'd hired to take my dad, my bridesmaid & I to the ceremony failed to arrive, the rest of the day progressed without a single flaw.

 We were a little nervy about the weather but need not have wasted our energy - we were blessed with crystal clear, blue skies & a beautiful afternoon of sunshine. The winery itself is absolutely gorgeous - as soon as have our professional photos back I'll share them with you all. I can't wait to see the shots they got..! We had our guests release 100 white balloons at the conclusion of the ceremony which looked amazing, we also had some huge 1metre white balloons & some super cute photo booth props that were an absolute blast, so fingers crossed we'll have some stunning photos as a result!

We leave for our honeymoon tomorrow morning - we're heading off to Thailand for some much needed rest & relaxation, I'm pretty much beside myself with excitement..!

Just to finish up this post, I thought I'd mention that I've got some big plans for FJM over the next few months - a collaboration with one of my gorgeous fellow bloggers, some brand new illustrations I'm just itching to share & some other new ideas currently in development..

Have a fabulous next few weeks guys - I'll be thinking of you all as I sit by the pool with a cocktail in hand..!

FJM
