A very special weekend!

Last Friday, Steve & I set off for a much needed weekend away in Northern Ireland. But we weren't just going for the peace & quiet; we were going for a very special reason...

During New Designers 2012, I came across the most beautiful rings I had ever set my little eyes on! They were designed by the amazing Mairi Burrows, aka Mustard & Peaches.
It was one of those 'that is the one' moments so I knew then & there, that I wanted Mairi to make our wedding rings.
But she went one better than that... Mairi said we could make our wedding rings ourselves!

Mairi invited Steve & I to spend the weekend with her, & new husband Adam, in their idyllic cottage tucked away in the Northern Irish hills.

To sum up... It was absolutely amazing & I would recommend to every engaged couple in the world to consider this! (& surprisingly, the entire weekend worked out cheaper than getting the other rings we had considered)
