I have always wanted to a bridesmaid. Finally this year I got to be one. The wedding prep luckily hasn't been to drawn out with the engagement happening a mere 9 months ago. Last weekend after all the dress fittings, hen do's, present buying, prepping and planning the day arrived and we hopped on down to Brighton.

Before...looking pretty fresh |
Although the wedding was taking place in a country house in the middle of no where about 40 minutes outside of Brighton, we stayed in a suite in a seafront hotel the night before - mainly to get some fabulous pictures. The sun shone for us but the wind on the bandstand was pretty nippy. There seems to be a lot of squinting going on.

Are we making the sky look blue, or is it making us? |
For ref, I did my own hair and make-up as well as S's (far left) I'm pretty nifty with the GHD's don't you know...also the necklace was a gift from the bride. We each have one (including She) and they are opposite wings, two of each.
Later on of course I did NOT look quite so put together and Sunday was mostly spent sleeping/eating full English breakfasts and Chinese food and groaning and the thought of how much champagne I drank. We laughed all the way home in the car reminiscing about things that had occurred throughout the day/night and cracking up at absolutely anything. Safe to say, it's a good job I wasn't driving! Also in the car the inevitable conversation of 'which one of us will be next' cropped up. I shall keep the answer a secret...
