Happy Sunday to you :-) and April Fools day!! I hope you have lovely restful plans for your Sunday.

I have still been ill. This may sound like a huge exaggeration but i don’t think Ive ever been so sick. I had the flu last week, which then gave me a horrid chest infection this week, where i also pulled a rib muscle. Oh the joys of germs!

I have had to take things a little easy this week, and i am really hoping next week will bring normality, i am fed up of sitting in bed already hehe!!

Anyway, as i am feeling under the weather, i have just a quickie post today, to share some lovely press this month. The fab Wedding Ideas Magazine used one of my DIY tutorials in this months issue… yipeee!!

So today i will be working on a project which has been in the pipeline for a few months now… scary, exciting, and hopefully it will be super fun!! Anyway, i know i am being a super tease but watch this space :-)

So for today, i will have a short and sweet post.

This week was of course Valentines day :-) G and I aren’t hugely cliche romantic types… i don’t like the pressure of having to be lovey dovey. But we still exchanged pressies and cards… well DVD’s we wanted hehe! And we had a nice evening on the sofa watching One Day, which we quite enjoyed. We do love our films, its one of the main things we love to share together. What did you get up to?

It has been half term, so little A has been off from pre school, luckily G has been off most of this week, but my mum came over for the day Wednesday which was lovely, whilst i got some work on. We also did a little baking which A loved bless him.

I picked up the latest copy of wedding ideas magazine, which i was in!! Woop… giving some tips on 2012 trends, here you go….

Hey lovelies :-) I hope you are having awesome weekends, what ever you may be doing….

Firstly let me be telling you about an article for Wedding Ideas Magazine i helped with last month, alongside some other amazing UK wedding bloggers :-)) Thanks Wedding Ideas for letting me help…. I am so excited as if you didn’t hear i am a judge for this years Wedding Ideas Magazine awards, and the judging commences this month :-))

I have been so so busy with the blog, back end work, emails and trying to schedule for the Christmas break. That along side the usual Christmas traditions. We went to see Father Christmas this week and poor A was scared of him hehe… but we had a lovely time never the less. (more…)

I am so excited by the coverage the blog has had this month, in not one but two amazing print publications.

A couple of months ago i was contacted by F2 Freelance Photographer Magazine, and interviewed for a feature on wedding blogs. How exciting is it that the article was the headline feature on the front cover!!! I was so proud to be named alongside some of my favourite other bloggers.

I was kind of scared when i opened it up to two huge pics of me and G in there, from our amazing engagement by The Barbers. It’s out now, and is a great read for photographers ;-)

I have also written another article for the awesome Wedding Ideas Magazine, i so love working with the herd and the lovely Alice Rimes. It’s such a pleasure :-) This month i wrote about some of my favourite bridesmaid looks from real wedding features here on the blog. The magazine is out now, so go grab a copy quick :-) It’s jammed packed full of pretty.

Wow i sure do love helping out with press articles, get in touch with me at whim.wond.wed @ gmail.com if any magazine editors need a hand with an article :-) xoxo
