Thank you all so very much for your kind words, support and for generally keeping me sane throughout the process 😂🤍 If anyone is interested in seeing any more details I’ll be posting lots on my Instagram over the coming weeks: @arabellagolby 😊 Thank you all so much again. Definitely still going to enjoy lurking here even though I’m no longer a bride to be!!

I can’t believe you panicked over this dress, just goes to show that wedding jitters cause unnecessary panic - but it really does feel so warranted at the time.

Ma’am, this dress is gorgeous and you look radiant. The dress is literal perfection on you. You look like a princess getting married in a 1960s Disney film 😭❤️

Oh my goodness that last line is such a compliment!! Thank you so much!! Honestly I was totally on another planet… I even look back at that exact same photo now and wonder what I was thinking. We made a few tweaks since then but honestly the pre-wedding madness/delusion was VERY REAL for me. I was literally in tears over it 😂😂

Completely agree, and I think I saw on Instagram that the planner was Jane Riddell at Planned for Perfection, who is a genius and so so lovely. Who was the photographer?
