Sometimes it’s easy to get swept up and miss spending time together and so we show you how to take a moment on your wedding day. It may seem a busy day with lots of people wanting your attention but there are ways to carve out pockets of time.

As a bride you are probably on a tight timings for getting yourself and your bridesmaids ready. It’s traditional not to see your partner before you are standing in front of them. But there are other ways to take a moment at this early stage.

A handwritten card that you can swap and open first thing is a lovely idea. Or buy a gift for each other to wear or use on the day to help you feel connected. Nerves can play a big part at this stage so something you can focus on from your partner creates calm.

Laurie by House of Mooshki is a stunning polka dot tea length wedding dress. It has lots of detail on the fitted bodice and a halter neck detail in polka dots which follow through the bodice.

At this stage there may have been a bit of a rush so take a moment to breathe. The groom can spend a few minutes with his best man to make sure they have everything. The bride can have a lovely moment with whomever is walking her down the aisle. Listen to the sounds around, the chatter of your loved ones and let the excitement build.
