You say that you first spotted me walking down the stairs at the dive bar we both used to frequent. I was just 16, you were 21. You assure me you can remember exactly what I was wearing - a sheer pink top with a denim pencil skirt, and freshly dyed pink tips at the bottom of my hair. "That's the girl I'm going to marry" you turned to your friend and said. "Yeah right", I replied when you told me this story, years later. But that is just so typically Gareth - you're just always right about everything.

Lauren and Cory's whimsical French circus wedding theme came from the bride's imagination. She wanted their wedding to be quirky and fun, yet timeless and elegant. "I wanted to keep everything as organic and simple as possible but with a slight nod to the oh-so-quirky", Lauren explained. "I used gold animals that I DIY’d for the escort cards and table number holders which added a bit of whimsy and playfulness to the whole aesthetic. Our theme was Whimsical French Safari!"

The inspiration for Eric and Gina's wedding came from their mutual love of music and the 1980s in particular. "When we first sat down and started to plan it, the one thing we knew we wanted for sure was live music during the reception" began the bride. "Our first choice was Rewind, an ‘80s cover band from Seattle. We both wanted a fun, engaging celebration with friends and family. That led us to choose the ‘80s rock theme, which felt so right the minute Eric suggested it. I mean, w who doesn’t LOVE the ‘80s?!"

Yay it's my birthday! Although I do feel really bloody old now. I'm THIRRRRTYY freakin' ONE! OMG I'm totally ancient. Although this time last year I was definitely struggling with the thought of leaving my 20s behind, the past twelve months have been awesome (hello! I now have a magazine in actual shops!) Nothing actually really changes the older you get, does it? I mean, you're still you. You still have complete control over what you wear, how you act, and what you do. I have no plans to dye my hair a more respectable colour or to stop dancing in sequins on beaches!
