How I did it: Focus on what is important i.e. that you are marrying the person of your dreams, surrounded by your friends and family. The rest is all fluff.I took a lot of advice from other people who knew more about this than me, but I did feel that I suddenly became an expert in lots of things, like catering, flowers and dressmaking. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I plucked up the courage to book it at the local salon and that was it. I did tell them it was my first time so they were quite understanding, but it took all of 10 minutes and it was done. Read how I did it…
I have started a printmaking course, which is great fun. I’m finding it challenging but relaxing and inspiring which is what I wanted – so yay! glad I did it!
I’ve joined the work netball team which involves a match after work one day and training at lunchtime another. It means (unless I have work commitments) I can’t make any excuses to not exercise.
It helps having other people around to make you do it!
