The Queen's Jubilee

So, ever since Wills & Kate got hitched last year I have been a massive fan of our royal family. Living in a small English village in the middle of the countryside I have realised the importance of community. Also, living 30 minutes away from London, I do feel rather attached to The City. Together with some close neighbours we are holding a jubilee street party, only as you can only close side streets and culdesac, we are holding the party in our front garden which is huge and has views of our 900 year old church. Quite astmospheric.

Planning is already under way since it's only about 6 weeks away. I thought I would show you some jubilee inspiration that I have found around the web as I did my own party research. Are you celebrating the jubilee?

 

I'm thinking vintage garden party with the odd union jack themed accessory! Keeping it tasteful rather than garish! The picture on the bottom is the road I live on. If you look closely you will see the house beyond the tudor houses with a brick wall, that's mine! All photo credits are listed below. I'd love to hear if and how you will be spending the jubilee weekend!
