Hello

Posted 07/24/2009 by Rachel in Newlywed Life \ 1 comment

Rachel is a newly married twentysomething living with her husband, M, in Somerset, England. Having lived in London for 6 years, they are new to country living but getting used to it. M sells fine wine; Rachel blogs, makes bunting and takes photographs of everything on her phone. Together they are trying to turn their rented cottage into domestic bliss.

Hello! I’m Rachel. You may know me if you have been reading EAD weddings as I write a weekly column over there about our wedding planning leading up to our English country wedding in June. You might also know me from my blog where I write about weddings, fashion, lifestyle and anything else which inspires me.

I live in London, England, in a Victorian flat with my husband. M is a fine wine salesman who has been known to turn his hand to writing now and again. At the moment M is our sole income provider as I was made redundant a month before our wedding so he is very busy working and I am enjoying being a housewife! Or rather, I am so busy job hunting, helping out in a friend’s vintage shop, making and selling bunting and blogging about it, that I don’t really have time to be one at all. Our flat has all the basics {wooden floors, high ceilings, bay windows, fireplaces and mantelpieces} and we are enjoying the process of turning it into our marital home {until the day when we are able to buy somewhere}.

I am really excited to be contributing to EAD Living as M and I are spending more and more time at home these days, post wedding. We therefore spend a lot of time cooking, eating, drinking wine, sorting out our flat, and (I at least) spend a lot of time thinking about and reading about fashion and interiors. I suppose, therefore, that my posts will be about a myriad of subjects, all of which have some relevance to me or our life and which I find interesting or inspirational.
