What a bride is really thinking two weeks before her wedding

25/08/2013 by Charlotte 1 Comment

IMG_27461. Is it ok to watch TV when you get back to your hotel room on your wedding night?

2. I wonder if I can get away with putting a label that says ‘Don’t eat any of the red ones’ on the sweets table.

3. Will I have time to watch the Coronation Street omnibus while I’m getting ready?

4. The honeymoon will be the perfect opportunity to grow my over-plucked eyebrows back.

5. If only you could legitimately put DVD box sets on a wedding list.

6. I’m so glad I didn’t get a wedding dress that meant I had to reduce my cheese consumption.

7. I can’t wait to let the power that comes with wearing a wedding dress go straight to my head.

8. I hope nobody tries to make friends with us on our honeymoon.

9. Bank balance-wise, eloping would have been a much better choice.

10. The plus-side to the wedding being over is that I’ll have more ambitious things on my to-do list than ‘Find tongs small enough to pick a marshmallow out of a jar’.

11. Having so much time off emptying the dishwasher should not be the most exciting thing about going on a honeymoon. And yet it is.

We had 90 minutes on a train to ourselves this aft We had 90 minutes on a train to ourselves this afternoon before returning to parenting reality. Leon used it to sleep off the birthday excitement, I used it to publish a new blog to my Substack 🙌 It's about overloaded phone memory, motherhood nostalgia and figuring out what to do with the 3 billion pictures I've taken of our children ❤️ You can find it at the link in my bio - and massive thanks to everyone who has subscribed, really means a lot! 💖

Hello friends, 12.5 years into blog writing life I Hello friends, 12.5 years into blog writing life I've decided to make a change and move over to Substack. It's where all the kids are blogging these days so I thought I'd join the party. I've also decided to give it a different name, so I'm here to introduce 'While I've got you', which will basically be exactly the same as Nothing good rhymes with Charlotte, just renamed. (I explain the reasons behind the name in my first post. New link in bio ⭐️). 

I have so much love and affection for my original blog, but feel it's time for a shift into the 2024 way of doing things. (I have also carried several NGRWC posts over with me anyway so it already feels like home). So expect the same vibe, style and story types, just in a new place.

And a major Substack bonus is that it's much easier for people to subscribe to receive new posts via email, so if you'd like to, please do! I would very much appreciate it. ❤️

I look forward to throwing lots more thoughts and feelings onto the page and out into the world 💖 Much love xx

I had more emotions that I could fit into her card, so I've written a blog about some of the things she's taught me, which you can find at the link in my bio. 

We love you, Isla ❤️
