"Emma arrived at the candlelit Hall shortly before 4pm. The couple had chosen Elvis Costello’s version of She for Emma’s walk down the aisle and as the guests stood, Millie walked first, followed by Imogen, who held hands with a now beautifully behaved Gracie. A nervous Emma took Sheila’s arm for the short walk to Craig, and he remembers “Emma just looked so beautiful – terrified, but beautiful!” The couple agree that the registrar who conducted the civil ceremony was fantastic – she was so relaxed and happy, and set a lovely tone."
At Illustries, we're all about memories: remembering, celebrating and enjoying all those special times that can pass too quickly. We think memories deserve to be shared, and so we're sharing. Here, in our blog, we are creating a Library of Days. Our own as we build our business, and yours as you celebrate weddings, births, big life events - you name it, we'll celebrate it!

Another of those oh-so-special moments. Today, Mr & Mrs Devine, proud owners of one of our bespoke CELEB magazines, share their first look at each other on their wedding day:
"Mel: I wasn’t nervous at all. My biggest fear had been the walk down the aisle, but in the end I just had this amazing feeling. I remember coming through the doors and looking out for people – there were loads of people I hadn’t seen for ages.
Andy: I hardly turned around, because I just knew I’d be blown away by how beautiful she looked. I stood at the front and the music started, I was just thinking, I can’t look round because the bottom lip might go!
Mel: I was smiling at everyone, looking from side to side and then I caught a glimpse of Andy looking at me – it must have been the only peek he sneaked! I was beaming from ear to ear."

The second instalment in our little series on one of our favourite wedding moments - the first time the bride and groom set eyes on each other on their wedding day. Today, Bec and Andrew Taylor...
"Bridesmaid, Imogen, walked down the aisle before Bec, to Wagner’s Lohengrin - the traditional ‘Here Comes the Bride.’ “And then I saw Bec and her Dad,” smiles Andrew, “She just looked beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.” And when Bec caught her first glimpse of Andrew? “I just wondered if he looked as nervous as I felt,” she giggles.
