Behind The Blog: The Life & Times Of A Wedding Blogger

Julia Smith

.

As regular readers of the wedding blog will know, I sometimes like to throw a personal post into the mix of gowns, Real Weddings and general bridal fabulousness that you usually find on these swirly silver pages to keep things real over here at Brides Up North. 

.

I always get lovely feedback after my personal posts and have had requests for more insight into the world behind the scenes as I feel my way in my new and most modern of careers as a .  So, in attempt to give you a feel for my hectic, crazy and upside down schedule, laced as it is with plenty of Swarovski, tulle and white wine, I thought that I would let my iPhone memories of the last few months do the talking.

.

Hold on tight… it’s been a rollercoaster!
