our wedding day, shot on super 8. edited at home by me.
thankyou to the lovely tiri @flamesinframe for capturing it so perfectly đ
pt 2. slightly less sweaty, but no less unadulterated joy.
ripped suits, dirty hems, faces aching from smiling.
every speech made me well up.
the dance floor was ridiculous.
and while our wedding was TIRAMISU, my dress just happened to look exactly like my favourite Italian pastry (sfogliatelle) đ„

2025 has beenâŠa year. We camped. We swam (I watched Tay swim*) in freezing water, rode the emotional rollercoaster that is India, lost half my wisdom (teeth) in an emergency before visiting actual emergency for a cursed and swollen elbow, snuck off to Tassie where it rained more than it ever has in a single day, and spent half the year inspecting houses that openly laughed in our financial faces.
Then went to ONE auction and somehow walked out withâŠa deed?
Flew back to Blighty for a hot minute to see my favourite people and had a perfect weekend of pop-punk and love.
I found my wedding dress at a random sample sale I wasnât even supposed to be at.
And we found our actual house through a kind stranger on Reddit who basically became my property therapist. Forever grateful 2 u, user âNottaylormeadâ.
Still have my betrothed soon to be husband (!!!) Taylorina, all my loved ones, almost all my teeth, both my nonnas (one just made 102?!) and got to watch good friends fall in love, land new jobs, share new baby news, and patiently endure my rants delivered at breakneck speed.
There is good in this worldâŠbut holy fuck itâll turn you grey đ”đ» and make you feel like Robin Williams stepping out of Jumanji to get there.
Right. Thatâs all. Getting in all my reminiscing now. please do not speak to me until 2026.
Kerala; Munnar, The Backwaters and Varkala. A wild elephant herd having a play in the river, the best veg thali of my life, stray puppies following us home (heaven, basically) đ
