Well, I've gotta say, I never imagined planning a wedding in a pandemic, but covid-19 has meant that our wedding is limited by Step 3 restrictions and we are going to be limited to 30 people. In this vlog, I'm going to share my annual leave week - picking up my wedding dress & wedding shoes, talking about where we are at with the wedding and our plans at the moment, and generally sharing what it has been like the last couple of months, re-planning our wedding during covid and with restrictions - as well as a bit of general life and a few shots of our beautiful puppy too! I hope you enjoy seeing what I got up to!

Vlogmas Day 20 was the day we did the socially distanced present exchange with my parents; handing over our Santa sack full of prezzies for the family and being spoilt rotten by them in return. A lovely distanced winter walk, to make up for not being able to see them at all other than this short outdoor visit (we are in Tier 2, as are they, so no rules broken, promise!) - I will now be posting new videos EVERY THURSDAY (post-vlogmas!) so please do subscribe so you don't miss any future videos - I've got loads of really exciting content planned! - Camera and Editing: Filmed on: Canon G7X Mark ii: https://amzn.to/35wcN6A Mini handheld tripod: https://amzn.to/35v9QmX Edited with iMovie Sound Effects and Commission-Free music from Epidemic Sound - Get a 1 month free trial here: https://www.epidemicsound.com/referra... - Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/rosieladkin Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/rosieladkin Blog: http://www.agirlonajourney.com - A bit about me: I qualified as a Midwife in September 2019 and have been working as a fully qualified Midwife at a UK hospital since October 2019.

Postponements, cancellations, changing arrangement Postponements, cancellations, changing arrangements, cutting down the guest list of loved ones - this is not what you expect when planning your wedding. Suppliers have had their livelihoods put in jeopardy for a year now, with no idea when they, or the couples employing them, will be able to go back to normal. Our own wedding is set to take place in June, and we have had to start thinking about all the “what ifs” for if our wedding is affected. It’s just not what you expect, and the lack of guidance or information for couples and suppliers is inexcusable. We are very proud that our venue @launcells_barton has been on the forefront during this pandemic; One of the owners, Lara, was the wonderful women who put @borisjohnsonuk on the spot and pushed him for the answers we all need. They have handled this crisis with such dignity, as have all our suppliers, but they shouldn’t have to. They shouldn’t be in this position and need some guidance as to how we navigate out of this madness. Please help by supporting #whataboutweddings & #standupforweddings. This situation needs to change, now.
Welcome to the family, Murphy! 🐶🥰 Our beauti Welcome to the family, Murphy! 🐶🥰 Our beautiful 8 week old Sprollie came home yesterday and we are both absolutely smitten! 🥰 We had 7 hours sleep last night which we weren’t expecting, and even woke up to a dry crate this morning so he seems to be settling in well!
“It snowed!” must be the most exciting words t “It snowed!” must be the most exciting words to wake up to - it immediately turns you back into a small child, bouncing out of bed to throw open the curtains and wonder at the white winter wonderland outside - and is exactly how I woke up today! 🥰 So lovely seeing our beautiful new house covered in a blanket of snow!! ⛄️🎄😊
What a Christmas! After the madness that has been What a Christmas! After the madness that has been 2020, spending Christmas Day with @matt.griff90’s wonderful family was the perfect glimpse at normality - so so special! 🥰 Amazing food, lots of drinks, far-too-generous presents (from both sides of the family!), special facetimes and an all round fantastic day! 🎅🏼🎁🎄🥂 Can’t wait to see my side of the family again too - hopefully sooner rather than later! 🥰
