It’s Sunday, so if you are visiting us today you’re probably catching up on stuff you missed during the week. Maybe it’s been busy at work and you didn’t manage to check these blue polka dotted pages as religiously as you would through choice, or maybe your boss has been breathing down your neck meaning that a quick sneak onto RMW during work time has been trickier than usual. Or maybe you are the boss and you’ve actually had some work to do this week for a change. 
Or, maybe you visit especially for the Sunday Post?… In which case you are one of our hard-core followers… one of the Elite shall we say?
So, for all you die-hard members of the RMW community, today I (Adam) and going to tell you a story about how I got to be in the glorious position of writing this here post to you that there reader! I’ll keep it short because it’s Sunday and no one wants to have to concentrate for too long on a Sunday…
I’ll start by saying this – everyone at team RMW has “proper” jobs, maybe not for too much longer(!) But currently we balance blogging with a 9 to 5. I happen to work with a certain plucky little blonde who one day in 2009 came up to me and said something along the lines of,
“Hi Adam… you’re good at websites and design and marketing and stuff aren’t you?…
…Well I have a bit of an idea…”
Since that day my life has somewhat changed. I’m still doing websites and design and marketing and stuff, but I’m balancing that with blogging and writing – something I have always wanted to do. I have just written my first piece for a magazine – It’s very small but it STILL COUNTS! It’s something I never thought I would get the chance to do and I’m really proud of it.
Also, for the record, I’m properly into weddings, which I know is rare for a chap (although I think Dan, one of our grooms from last week may well be a like minded spirit).
My day job focuses on detail, the look, the feel, the design, the appeal – and how those elements pull together when it matters most. You can see how transferable that is to your wedding day. I love seeing how a photographer captures a feeling, how stationery reflects a personality, how a venue sets the mood for an occasion. Maybe I didn’t see it until Charlotte hustled me onboard the RMW train, but I haven’t looked back since.
So where am I going with this? Well, nowhere really… I just thought that the hard-core Rock My Wedding Sunday readership might appreciate a little insight into what’s happening on planet Adam.
I’m pleased to be here, and I’m proud to be a part of the RMW community – it’s a very nice place to be.
Thanks for having me, and happy Sunday.
Adam.
Love you posts Adam! Always interesting to hear about the workings of RMW. And yes, I’m a “read everyday (on the train to and from work) and a Sunday post” reader
Woo hoo, proud to be considered one of the RMW “elite”. Although perhaps a better description would be one of the RMW obsessives!
Happy Sunday Adam, me and Mr H reading your post whilst eating a bean and cheese toastie, perfect start to the day, so flattered to be considered one of the RMW elite

Does “plucky” mean cheeky?
Helenhtobe – very jealous of your toastie. Also loving the fact Mr H reads RMW…

I too am one of the elite (aka obsessive!).
Which magazine have you been published in? I like your writing style

I’m another RMW Obsessive
I think the only website I check more often is my email and facebook… possibly a bit mad but I love these pages! Love your posts Adam, always good to hear about how things work at RMW and hear things from a different perspective. Are you planning your own wedding? (just wondering, would be interesting to hear about the planning from a groom-to-be’s perspective!)
Right, I’m off to cook my lovely hubby and I a Sunday Roast….
Big Sunday Love

Big Adam love! I love that you love weddings! And you posts are always lovely to read!
Yes I wonder if you are married or planning your wedding yet, I am sure you will be a super duper co-planner!
Lots of Sunday roast love,

I am defos an elite/obsessive/addict RMW reader! I love it heaps. Have always wondered how you, Adam, got into wedding blogging. When I first came across RMW just over a year ago now, I actually spent, in the process of a week, going back through the pages and reading every single post. I was in blog heaven! So thank you! xxxxx
hello! just want to post very quickly.. just home from my amazing hen do! manchester, 50s dresses, birdcage and vintage chic. All in all WONDERFUL! 13 days and Ill be a married lady. So exciting! xxxx
Hi peeps,
No I’m not planning my own wedding, but when I do I am hoping to have the entire wedding industry at my fingertips
Emma – sounds like you have had a retro blast! and so now the official countdown begins… The 13 days are going to totally fly by.
Just read this post and just wanted to say thanks for sharing Adam – I love the behind the scenes stuff almost more than the actual weddings!
