I'm getting Married!

Today, is somewhat of a personal post. We have some very exciting news over at BWHQ and it is that, well...

I'm getting married!

Now, those of you who know me personally will already know that Bliss Weddings wasn't started on the back of planning my own Wedding; it simply was for my love of all things Wedding. I already get super excited about the word Wedding and everything which goes with it. But now, there is something a little bit more special about the word for me.

Me and Mr Bliss Weddings have been together for almost 8 years now and no, he hasn't just popped the question. The rather huge and gorgeous engagement ring has been sat there for quite some time now (4.5 years to be precise) and it is only now that we have finally decided to tie the knot. If i am being honest, working as Bliss Weddings for the last two years watching so many people get married and help so many other couples, has been hard for me. Whilst it is and always will be the most amazing thing to be a part of, there has been nothing i have wanted more than to get married.

I know he will cringe when he reads this but he is just the most wonderful person. In 8 years we have done a lot together, he is a few years older than me and he has waited for me to 'catch up' in my life and to do everything i have needed to do. He took me abroad for the first time, he was with me when i passed my driving test, he was with me when i failed my A'Level's and then when i passed them finally, he introduced me to my old chum Vodka Lime and Lemonade and he has been there when i have needed him the most. He has been the one to screech round the living room with me when i got my first Wedding, he has been the one to look after me when i have not stopped for 7 days and i can't function, he has been the one who has picked me up when it all feels to much and more importantly he has supported me 100% every step of the way.
So, it is for these reasons that i said Yes 4.5 years ago and also why i will say I Do in 2 years time.

So, to everyone who has asked me the question...Kate when are you getting married? Now i can say soon!


Finally, the Wedding Planner will be the Bride! Probably not until the beginning of 2014 but i can cope with being a Bride for that long...just about anway.

What's more I will now know exactly what it is like to be a Bride, so i will understand everything from this side of the fence too. I will be blogging about my journey, just to make everything a little more interesting and also so i can have some advice from fellow Brides!
