Perfect Wedding in Timaru

Last Saturday the Wedding of my good friends Tom and Em finally arrived. From my previous posts I have spent what seems like forever finding the perfect outfit to wear on this special day.


I finally decided on this navy lace dress from Boohoo.com and I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. There is always a chance that buying a piece of clothing online that it wont live up to expectations but I think genuinely hit the jackpot. 

The colour was exactly what i wanted and the fit was classic, simple and beautiful. I got endless compliments from people who also attended and the gorgeous bride Em kept saying how beautiful i looked, when in fact she was of course the star of the day.

The shoes are from Cotton On and were considerably comfortable for almost a whole day in heels and also served me well on the dance floor at the reception.

Thomas was one of the groomsmen and certainly scrubbed up nicely. I was lucky enough to get a sneak peak of him in his suit last year and I was certainly not disappointed if I do say so myself.

The day was just perfect. The beautiful ceremony brought out a few tears and even a few laughs which just continued onto the reception. It was a day where we all could celebrate two lovely people who genuinely will spend the rest of their lives together. 

I certainly felt special and privileged to be asked to attend and the energy, love and warmth was just infectious.

Hope you are all enjoying your weekend. I am well into my countdown for the Wellington sevens next weekend. With my best friends spread around our beautiful country I really do try and savor the moments where we are all together.

Wedding attire inspiration

Wedding attire inspiration


January next year i cannot wait as two of my good friends get married just after New Years. Tom and Em have been friends of my boyfriend Thomas's for a few years and i have loved getting to know them myself. We even live on the same street as them and it makes things so much easier when it comes to having regular catch ups.

Earlier this year Thomas had been asked to be one of Tom's groomsmen and after getting a preview of his outfit (my man looks damm sexy in a suit) i felt that i needed to step my game up so i have been on the hunt for a dress to wear to the wedding ever since. 

Being my first wedding i have zero idea about what to expect and what is expected in terms of an outfit. I did learn that obviously white and black are a no go and it doesnt look right when you turn up in the same colour as the bridesmaids which is yellow. This doesnt leave many colour options for me.

However i have still been trying to find inspiration and the search continues.

The above dress is from Forever New and i adore the colour (see previous post) however im not sure of the neckline and wether its a bit too much for a wedding.

Heres hoping i can find something soon, i cannot tell you how excited i am :) It will be an amazing weekend.

Hope you are all enjoying the end of your week, one more down towards Christmas.
