The weather is reflecting my mood this morning, dr

The weather is reflecting my mood this morning, drizzly and grey. I’m not wholly surprised at the new government restrictions put in place for weddings, rather I think the reality of a year’s lost weddings has hit home.
Yesterday, panicked wedding suppliers furiously texted each other and exchanged many posts in our industry Facebook groups, feeling disconsolate and lost at the current situation. Many of us have built our businesses from the ground up, often starting as a weekend side hustle alongside demanding full time jobs, working 7 days a week to try and get our little businesses off the ground. The thought of weddings not taking place as we know them, for at least another six months, has hit us hard. We are equally heartbroken for all of our couples, who we know desperately wish to celebrate their marriages with a day you’ve been planning for months and even years. You’ve been to your mates weddings, you’ve been the bridesmaid, understandably you now want your own wedding day as you’ve been dreaming of it. I’m gutted for everyone who now feels in disarray. 2020 has been an absolute shitter.
All I can say is that things will get better, and many of you will eventually have the day you desired. Some of you may have to adjust your plans, and I totally get it’s crap to have to do that. Today I’m struggling to focus on the positives, but they will come. In the meantime, it’s ok to be pissed off for a while.

Nikki and George + Mersea beach + a bit of lens flare = photo magic. They looked embarrassed after I showed them this pic on the back of my camera but I think you’ll agree they look bloody AMAZING 🖤

I don’t know about you, but after meeting up with Hannah and Gary yesterday, I had an overwhelming urge to run home and drink Ribena after they unknowingly coordinated their purple outfits. 💜
We could all take a leaf out of their book regarding weddings next year; as we discussed the ongoing possibility of reduced numbers (certainly from high number guest weddings), they pragmatically said if they had to review the number of guests for their wedding, it could mean they might have a few quid left over to finally refurb their kitchen. Practical thinking - me likey!
