From D-vor-C to Mrs. C
Gosh, I have been a bit tardy in the old blogging area! I have actually been quite busy getting married and what not but hey ho. Yes, I did it. I am now a new woman with a new name but not new initials. We got married on April 2nd, at The Felix in Cambridge. It was a fantastic day, if a little windy! As promised by the hairdresser, my hair remained in place. I had a helmet of hair but it looked nice, so I'm told. I was so excited that I couldn't eat which was rather gutting as the food is bloody lovely there. Jon looked suitably dapper in his handmade suit and 'gucci' shirt, don't you know. I think that a good time was had by all and lots of dancing by the look of the photographs.
The photographs are brilliant but I don't like the fact that I held my bouquet up and you're supposed to hold it down over your tummy. The result was that I look quite compact and short of body. Being a short of body person at the best of times, I wish in hindsight that I'd gone for an elongating pose such as one to make me svelte and elegant. I also have a rather splendid heaving bosom, thanks to my lovely underwear. Trinny and Susannah would have been proud of my underwear. Good in real life, but a little dominating in some of the photographs. But I look really happy, which I was. Jon, as ever, looks lovely as he is photogenic.
And now it's on with our lives. It's easy to get so caught up in the 'Big Day' mentality that you forget what it's really about. I always knew that me Jon and me were a good team and getting married just confirmed it. We work so well together. The day is just a day, but as that cheesy saying goes, we've got the rest of our lives together. (So long as Jon keeps buying me rings; I've joked that I'm on husband number 2 with 6 to go. The aim is to have a ring on each finger. Rings on the thumbs and 10 husbands would be too much!)
