Most couples take around a year to plan their wedding in Italy, but some couples decide to get married in a few weeks and sometimes a few days!

As the days and weeks tick by bringing us rapidly closer to our main event, it appears that weddings are all around us. While the analysts and commentators devoured every royal detail of a very royal wedding, Amber and I found ourselves in the beautiful village of Sneem in Southern Ireland, attending the last family wedding before our own.

Venice...

Last night I went to for dinner with friends in Venice. No matter how many times I come in to Venice, or have walked down the same street, I find myself having to pause to look at something that takes my breath away.

Finally I am getting around to writing about the Royal wedding!

When we think about a wedding reception in Ireland, the UK and many other countries where food is not the pivotal point of daily life, we think about a 4 course meal, sometimes we come away delighted
at the food, most of the time we find it just ok and we rave more about the entertainment or flowers.

I can not believe a week has passed since  the wedding of Cassandra and Sean in Tuscany. It was a fun filled wedding full of laughter, so much food and lovely wine. But what made it more special is how lovely Cass and Sean are!
