Wedding - Flowers

PHOTO

When we got engaged i knew exactly which wedding flowers we 

would be having.

I would carry Sunflowers.

and my bridesmaids Dried Lavender

Sunflowers -

because they are my favourite flower.

they are so bright and cheerful

but not just that,

they are the only flowers Tim has ever bought me.

Early on in our relationship i mentioned they

were my favourite and he picked right up on it.

For our first anniversary of dating he bought me a sunflower

in a pot...

We named it Sonic.

We planted it in his garden.

One night he called me after having a BBQ with his friends.

'i think they all think i'm a bit strange'

he said.

'why' 

i asked.

'Well after the BBQ we headed indoors

but i kept running outside with my head torch on

to attack the slugs that have been eating Sonic..

They told me to just leave it alone,

and they didnt understand when i tried to tell

then its my girlfriends favourite flower.'

Sonic didnt survive the slugs,

but i knew he was a keeper.

Lavender -

Captain Tim is obsessed with lavender.

He thinks it cures all diseases....

everything!

He reminds me of the dad in

My Big Fat Greek Wedding who thinks

Windex cures everything.
