Friday Roundup

Photo from A Fun Favourite Things Sydney Wedding by by Infinity Photography

I think I’m actually trying to get into Spring (not that the weather is helping) with my sudden trend of picking bouquet shots for Friday Roundups. It’s been a busy week at Polka Dot Bride and we’re starting to plan out our 2013 content which to be honest scares me so I’d rather not think about it. I mean, I haven’t started Christmas shopping yet! (Have you? got any tips for me?)
