Trying on bridesmaid/pageboy outfits for a big fancy wedding is lots of fun!

My kids are very privileged to be involved in my very best friend’s wedding celebrations in March to be held in her local village and then at big ol’ Berkeley Castle. Her fiance is Italian and his family are all very classy so it makes absolute sense that us Brits are to show them a proper tying the knot celebration complete with four little children as beautiful bridesmaids and pageboy. Coming from a very small family I’m a little misty eyed just looking at the photos of our dress fitting as I don’t anticipate many other invitations to wear such beautiful clothes at such a momentous occasion again (although Aunty Becky or Unkie Dan may put me straight on this matter…).

We all had such a lovely time in Bristol trying on fancy frocks and meeting the other two bridesmaids. Hopefully Morris’s threat of going ‘Rahhh at people’ as he follows Aunty Madders & GB down the aisle will not happen after all. It was so lovely to spend a few hours with Madders’ parents & Nancy who I haven’t seen for ages and ages. We are so looking forward to the grand event. Just hope that my two manage to keep themselves looking pristine until after the wedding photos have been taken!
