Well, I thought I'd finally catch up with my blog, seeing as I've been promising to do so for a while!
So, here goes, first things first!
OUR WEDDING!
Stephen and I after just over 2 years finally got married! We had a beautiful pagan handfasting, which for those who don't know, is the pagan version of a wedding. Instead of making our vows to a Christian god that neither of us believe in, (which would make them pretty empty if we did that), in our ceremony we made our vows to one another, and sent that energy and love out into the world.
Anyway, thought I'd share some of the beautiful pictures from the day, taken by two *VERY* talented photographers, Stuart and Adam Glossop, a father and son team. It was wonderful to have two people who value and trust sharing our day with us, not just as photographers, but also as friends.
So, starting from the morning of the wedding...
