The instigator of Memorandum Monday, the lovely Sian, asks us this week if we had a weekend that was plain or fancy. Well, ours was one of starting to plan the most amazingly fancy thing. There's a wedding to on the cards! Oh yes! Our daughter has got things a little out of the natural order in that she has done engagement, baby, wedding instead of engagement, wedding, baby but she has never been one to stick to traditional and they've been out looking at venues this weekend. I feel a 'Mother of the Bride' moment coming on ...
Now before we all get over excited and start buying confetti and fascinators, I should point out that she's planning a winter wedding for next year. She absolutely loves Christmas and the thought of having a venue decked out in fairy lights with a huge Christmas tree up in the entrance hall and log fire burning in the lounge is her dream come true. My son's reaction to all this? 'Can I be the one to look after the baby all day?' Nice to see him taking his 'proud Uncle' duties seriously already.
And just when you thought the actual Monday of Memorandum Monday would be a bit of an anti-climax, and I'd be struggling to find something new that I hadn't tried before I came across this little beauty in Waitrose this afternoon. Part of their new range - and 25% off. That's pudding tonight sorted then!

How wonderful. We had a Winter wedding at the beginning of December. A perfect clear crisp day and I got to wear a floor length red cloak. What could be better?! Have fun planning.
Oh a winter / Christmas time wedding could be something so beautiful. Oh the Pinterest ideas are amazing for this idea. I think I would like to do a winter wedding ... I like weddings SO much I would do it all over again - same man, just different ideas ;)
Congrats all around! I'll bet the wedding will be stunning!
Oh a wedding to look forward at Christmas - how fun. And that ice cream looks like a perfect dessert to have while mulling over winter wedding plans.
It all sounds so exciting! My sister got married three days after Christmas and her reception with all the twinkling fairy lights was the nicest I've ever seen. Now, about that hat..
Have a lovely week, dreaming
