14 Years Ago Today....

On this date 14 years ago, I was having this done....
.

.
And this is what I chose to wear for the day...
.

.
My chosen vehicle for the day was a vintage white Rolls Royce.
.

.
That's right, me and Mr Jelly said our "I do's" in our local registry office.
.
The dress was my own design and was made from dusky apricot and ivory shot-silk, and had a scalloped hem to the outer layer with silk fabric roses at each rise.
.

.
There were hundreds of teeny-tiny buttons running down the back (that sure held up proceedings later on in the day!)
.
I remember it was a blisteringly hot day and my mum had to splash cold water on me in the ladies' rest-room to cool me down.
.
For our honeymoon we went to Florida for a week and then on to the Caymen Islands for another week.
.
What's that you say?
.
You want to see what Mr Jelly wore on the day?
.
He dressed up for the day too in a top-hat and bowtie.
.

.
Happy Anniversary Mr Jelly
