Look for something left in this world, start again…
Weddings always bring out the romance in me. But most weddings are corporate do’s where as much money as possible is thrown at the venue, at the dress, at the food, at the guests to make the day seem impossibly romantic; to hide the fact that the wedding isn’t really about the love of it all, but the show. Weddings are for the bride to show off, to be the centre of attention and vulgar; on the one day they are allowed to.
But some weddings you just know would be at the top of the 4 wedding’s lead table; outshining all those around them. They are few and far between and are not always the £500 shoestring just because we love each other; we did it at the last minute so lets party weddings. Some weddings just make you want to scream with the injustice of it all. Some weddings make you grit your back teeth that the day wasn’t yours; that your wedding wasn’t like that, or could be exactly that.
Even if you had never ever considered being a bride ever again….

P.s the wedding venue was spectacular - The website is well worth checking out – Hotel El Far de Sant Sebastia, Llafranc, Costa Brava Spain.
The Hotel from above…
The balcony and view
The chapel
and finally… my shoes!
Your shoes are beautiful and so is the chapel…it looks wonderful!
I have to admit to laughing a bit.
“Look at this Hotel, this view, this chapel. Look how they pale in comparison to these SHOES!”
I don’t think I will ever get the female fascination with shoes. I can never imagine walking (tottering) about in agony just because a pair of shoes are pretty. Give me comfort over style anytime ;)
Nice views. Not sure about the shoes, you couldn’t muck out or ride in them and they’d not be much cop for walking the cross country course or anything… :-)
I’ve been dying to see these shoes since you mentioned them! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.
The venue is okay too
The hotel looks gorgeous!!
Cute shoes but how the hell do you walk in them?
Yes the shoes did outshine the whole wedding ;)
Walking in them is easy, standing for hours and dancing not. I took flipflops along with me too…
(i am sensible underneath the glamour!)
Those are gorgeous shoes! I don’t think I’d be able to walk in them very well!
You look lovely there in that top photo (and the shoes are marvellous, which is saying something as I am not really a “shoe person” – a person that adores shoes as opposed to a cartoon character from the early ’90s of course). Venue was clearly idyllic, perfect for a wedding. Oh, it gives me ideas…
