Heidi’s wake-up call!

Exactly six months today I will be walk­ing down the aisle to Mr Moore. My reac­tion to this fact reminds me of my daily expe­ri­ence of get­ting ready for work.  One minute I’m lux­u­ri­at­ing in the bath with what seems like heaps of time to spare and then, before you can say ‘Mrs Moore-to-be’, I find myself rac­ing around the flat, fran­ti­cally search­ing for my keys/purse/gloves in ‘Chal­lenge Anneka’ kind of a way.

A face to the name

In recent weeks, you’ve heard quite a bit about the key role being per­formed by Mrs Adams, KoTD at A War­wick­shire Wed­ding and it occurred to me that you might be won­der­ing what she looks like.  Won­der no longer! Because here she is with Mr Adams on their Big Day back in July 2009.

So now you can put a face to the name. But, the ques­tion of the day is, can you put a name to the dress? Drop in at www.awarwickshirewedding.com on Mon­day morn­ing and I’ll reveal the iden­tity of the cat­walk designer who cre­ated this stun­ning dress and made the already mega-stylish Mrs Adams look like a mil­lion dollars!

The camera never lies …

Ok,  faced with MoH’s pho­to­graphic evi­dence I am forced to con­fess that on Mon­day, when I told you I returned home with­out The Dress , I was guilty of hav­ing mis­led you.  The truth of the mat­ter is that whilst I did indeed arrive home empty handed, Mrs Adams didn’t because an hour after walk­ing into Sassi Hol­ford I had bought The Dress and Mrs Adams had assumed the cov­eted role of Keeper of The Dress.

Arise Mrs Adams, KoTD (but what, I hear you say, does it mean?)

Hello again, in my last post I told you all about my trip to Lon­don last Novem­ber when I went wed­ding dress win­dow shop­ping with MoH and Mrs Adams. I stress the word ‘win­dow’ to remind you that, con­trary to what all my friends thought, I was quite sure that I wasn’t going to come home with The Dress. And I can tell you that I didn’t. But before you applaud my self-restraint and sen­si­ble approach, I think I need to tell you some­thing. It’s about my friend Rachel Adams.  When she stepped into Sassi Holford’s shop in South Ken­ing­ton she was Mrs Adams. Full stop. But when she stepped out she was Mrs Adams KoTD. Hop over to www.awarwickshirewedding.com on Valentine’s Day and I’ll reveal all but in the mean­time see if you can guess what KoTD might stand for.  Use the com­ment facil­ity at www.awarwickshirewedding.com to post your sug­ges­tions and if you are the first per­son to hit the nail on the head I’ll send you some­thing nice!

Mrs Moore-to-Be, she doth protest too much …

I could tell that no one believed me when I said that I was going designer wed­ding dress win­dow shop­ping in Lon­don.  All my friends seemed to think it inevitable that I would come back home with The Dress.

Their reac­tion was, I con­fess, under­stand­able.  My life­long over indul­gence in retail ther­apy is such that I have only myself to blame if it’s impos­si­ble for any­one to con­ceive of my going into a clothes shop — or indeed any shop — and com­ing away empty handed.
