Simon met his fair lady now just over two years, having found each other using 'modern technology' let's say. After just over a year together, whilst enjoying a pre-Christmas weekend away in Venice, and whilst suffering with man flu, Simon popped the question whilst overlooking the Grand Canal. She said yes.
Simon & Laura live in Bristol, with two cats, one horse and one tortoise. One day they are hoping to move to sunny Italy and start making bambinos. Before then however, they have the small matter of the wedding...
Ever wondered what a wedding is like from a Grooms perspective? Over the next 12 months Simon, one of the founders of The Bridal File will regulary blog about the preparations for his & Laura's big-day preparations!
Too busy to blog? Or just too lazy?

Well, it turns out I really am not very good at blogging.
From this point on I am going to make a concious effort to blog once every two days. In my defence, for a variety of reasons wedding preparations have been a bit quiet mainly because we are currently at that point where you are just trying to save all the money you can before you have to start paying for all the stuff you have chosen months before.
We have found our photographer, and we have found a lovely lady who is going to make our bridesmaid dresses for us - and I'm going to blog about these two seperately later today because on both counts we really did win the wedding jackpot.
Anyway, more to follow later...
