Mrs. V. Biccy

I’m soon to become a ‘Mrs’, as you may know. Time is sprinting on like an over-enthusiastic Sport Relief runner, and I’ve just realised there’s only 4 months left! This week we finally sat down to start designing invitations.

It’s pretty exciting actually. I love getting creative with stuff like this, so I’m enjoying the process and trying to pretend that the next jobs (finalising the guest list and finding a luxurious yet dirt cheap marquee) will be just as stress-free. Which, obviously, they won’t. But let’s pretend for now.

Another element of preparation for my newly married status is… wait for it… money. Yep, again. Thinking beyond the wedding budget (if you can call it a budget when there’s no money in it), we’ve got to figure out how much money we’ve got to live on when we move in together! It’s going to involve budget sheets, pay slips, bills, loans, debts, tax credits… a few of my favourite things… Not!

Although it seems like I’m always on about money, the truth is I really, really hate numbers. Once I’ve won the battle with my brain to stop daydreaming about sunny beaches and focus on the task in hand, it repays me with a headache and a general background whine about how it wasn’t designed to process this kind of information.

Maybe I’ll leave that side of things for a few weeks, and instead I’ll expend my energy on colours, patterns and handmade paper… much more fun! Right, where did I put that pritt stick…
