I was late to our wedding. Will says 40 minutes, I say 20. We split the difference and call it half an hour.

The Vicar (understandably) got hot under the dog collar at the 20 minute mark, and suggested that everyone go outside to “stretch their legs a bit”.

Will wasn’t altogether surprised, but, in my defence, the traffic in Oxford city centre was SOLID. It was at that moment that my brother-in-law spotted my dad and I arriving, and had to tell everyone to quickly get back in the church.

It was a 90s Four Weddings-esque wedding, in every sense.

But what about the hair and makeup, circa 1998?

Looking back at the pics, I’m surprised to see how much I would, actually, wear now, and how much my general beauty formula remains unchanged.
