Dancing round the garden with our photographer

Last Sunday was a glorious evening so we decided to meet our photographer at ours in the garden.

I had spent Saturday getting the furniture ready for a busy summer of parties and BBQ's so it was our first time using them this year.

All was going really well, until Floss showed us some of the poses she would get us doing. These included twirling round each other, thrusting, draping over one another and sitting on each other.

Now, you'd normally expect this to be ok for a couple in love with each other. But I was watching Kate's face grow steadily concerned and embarrassed at the same time as I was enacting the poses with Floss, the photographer.

I'm not sure whether her concern was what the neighbours might think as we danced around the garden, or whether she thought she should be draping herself over me and not the photographer!

On another note, Kate has now chosen and paid for her wedding dress - which is another major thing decided on.

We had a funny night on Tuesday night as I could see she was desperate to tell me about it, but I was having none of it! It is now safely in a wardrobe at her parents house until the big day.

You have to give these arty types some leway

Wedding plans have gone very slowly recenly as w are trying to organise a photographer for the big day.

We have approached a really good one in Yeovil, but she forgot to turn up for our last meeting.

Now, working with the arts, I know we have to be patient, even though this is the last of the most important pieces in the jigsaw - apart from the dress, rings, suits, stationery... - it would be good for both of our sanity's to get it all sorted out and arranged.

We are also looking for a honeymoon. We've both got a month off from work in September 2009, so now we've just got to fill it!

But, and here is a big but, each time we start to look for a honeymoon we end up looking for a holiday this year. If that happened we wouldn't have a wedding!
