A Mediterranean Glow-Up at Pickle Cottage

As I sit in my garden, surrounded by the beauty of nature, I am reminded of my recent hen do in Greece. The bougainvillea, the white walls, and the serene atmosphere all came together to create a sense of tranquility that I wanted to replicate at Pickle Cottage. And so, I embarked on a mission to give my garden a Mediterranean facelift.

A tranquil oasis in the heart of Essex

With the help of my friends and family, we worked tirelessly to transform the garden into a stunning Greek-inspired haven. We painted the pergola white, and @emlouflowers found the most perfect pink flowers to complete the look. It was a labor of love, and I couldn’t be happier with the result.

Before and after: the pergola’s stunning transformation

The garden is now ready for our family breakfast after the wedding, and I couldn’t be more excited. It’s going to be a beautiful day, surrounded by the people I love, in a setting that feels like a little slice of Greece in Essex.

The perfect setting for a family breakfast

As I count down the days to my big day, I must admit that my tummy is turning with excitement. But I’m trying to stay focused and enjoy every moment of this journey. After all, it’s not every day that you get to plan a wedding and create unforgettable memories with your loved ones.

A special touch for our special day

I hope you’ve had a lovely Thursday, and I’ll see you in the next post!

Staying True to Myself

As I prepare to tie the knot with Joe Swash, I’m reminded of the importance of staying true to myself. It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of planning a wedding, but at the end of the day, it’s about celebrating our love and commitment to each other.

I’m grateful for the love and support of my friends and family, and I know that our special day will be a celebration of our love and commitment to each other.

The Final Countdown

As I enter the final stretch of my wedding prep, I’m feeling a mix of emotions. I’m excited, nervous, and grateful all at once. But most of all, I’m looking forward to starting this new chapter of my life with the love of my life.
