My clever friend Leigh Harrington Reilly

July 5, 2012

Yesterday my clever friend Leigh Harrington Reilly came and dropped her and her husband-to-be Brad’s wedding invitation off. They are getting married in September and I’m so excited for a weekend away with my lovely friends, some cake and a good old dance till the shoes come off. It’s going to be such a fun wedding.

Leigh you did such a beautiful job of the invite, I friggin love the personalised stamps, nice touch. I think Shane and I should have another wedding to celebrate our first one and I think you should make an invite for us. You can be our Maid of Invite. Makes sense right? Right.

Leigh is a freelance illustrator/designer so here is her email address incase you need something amazing – leigh@heystranger.co.za

Gina King is now a Anderson

February 8, 2012

I have been in the Cape for the last few days, getting ready for and attending my best friend Gina King’s wedding in Stellenbosch, she got hitched there on a beautiful farm. The wedding was very very pretty and super fun and she looked amazing. I was one of her bridesmaids, Amy (you remember talented Amy?) made my bridesmaids dress for me and she did a damn good job. Thank you Gina King and Beardface for the lovely wedding and for the dancing into the dark night and thank you Amy for the dress and Luke and Jen (Shane’s cousins) for the lodgings and chats till 12:55 in the morning and thank you CT for the good times.

Dear Mr. Tretchikoff, welcome to my house.

January 11, 2012

I raided my granny’s house when I was in Zimbabwe. Obviously. I got a few really nice pieces, which she was very happy to give me because I’m her lovely grand daughter hee. I bought home this Tretchikoff print, the frame has seen better days, but I kind of like it all disheveled. My aunt who lives in Springs has a really big one like this in a big gold frame, I drool over it every time I go there and she has promised that one day it will be mine. So pretty.

I also asked if I could take 2 of her wedding photos. Back in the day everyone always looked so composed and classic, I wish our pictures now looked like these.

I have never written about this gran before, this is my dad’s mom and she is one tough cookie, I will say no more ha. My grandfather unfortunately passed away quite a few years ago, he was cool grandfather. My fondest memories of him are the bike rides he used to take us on. I have such an awesome picture of me, my brother and my grandfather on is bike – I must find it and add it to this post.

I love the flowergirls outfits and hats.

Here comes the bride.

August 10, 2010

This weekend was Shane’s sister’s wedding. She looked very beautiful and the whole day was super sweet. Doug came with us and him and I decided that champagne and gin and juice would be the night’s drinks of choice. Plus 1 x red sambucca hahhaa, which I haven’t had since I was 18. It stained my fingers immediately and it still tastes like something a pirate would use to soak his dead parrot in. But anyway we had it to celebrate Doug catching the garter, which he has never done before – we were both so excited, something a lot of the other guys on the dance floor didn’t really understand. All in all it was an awesome night filled with much needed dancing. Which reminds me, If anyone needs a dancing wedding partner, drop me a mail. I’ll be there!
