This time next week Britmums will be over! Boo!
I have been looking forward to it ever since I saw the waterfall of tweets in my feed from the event last year. I had only just started blogging but soon realised that it was a big deal! I was so inspired reading about it and seeing the fun that was had that I bought my early bird ticket on the first day!! I knew I had to be there!
I have been to a few events in the last few months and have enjoyed every single one. Each time I get to meet someone new, people I have spoken to online in the amazing blogging community. Each time I meet someone they ask whether I am going to Britmums – it all builds the excitement! Yes, yes I am going!
So what makes Britmums so special?
MEETING BRANDS Ok so lots of events have brands attending but Britmums has lots of major brands, all excited to meet bloggers! I have had some business cards made in preparation, I got mine from instantprint and they are fab! They are also extra special as they are double sided with What Katy Said on one side and Live. Love. Blog on the other!
FAB SPEAKERS Have you seen the schedule? Take a look as there are so amazing talks planned and I for one cannot wait! I love learning and I am going to be making so many notes so I can read them again and again once I am home. Don’t worry, if you aren’t going this year as Live. Love. Blog will be covering various angles from the event.
DRESSING UP Something I have been looking forward to is the opportunity to get dressed up. I have found the perfect dress and have just got to find a pair of wedges and I will be good to go for the Friday. Saturday is a bit more casual so I think jeans and a nice T will do.
HOTEL A night away from being woken up by the kids? Yes please! I am sharing a room with the gorgeous Jenna and cannot wait to have a full nights’ sleep!! Bonus will be a lie in on the Saturday too, bliss!!
FRIENDS This is what I have most been looking forward to. I have made some amazing friends this year and have yet to meet some of them. I just hope I manage to see everyone but I am rubbish with faces so please do come and say hello if you spot me!
So that is why I am looking forward to Britmums. Are you going? What are you looking forward to?
Not going to Britmums this year?
I know there are lots that cannot make it for one reason or another. That is why I am excited to announce that I (and the rest of the Live.Love.Blog team) will be using #notatBML to give you the inside scoop. If you want to ask us a question about the event, set us challenges or give anyone a hug for you then just tweet us @livelove_blog with #notatBML and we will get on it!
Got any ideas already?

I'm going for the 3rd time. I just love learning new stuff, reinforcing old knowledge, catching up with old friends and meeting new ones. I just love the buzz, and it makes so much difference compared with dull stuffy work conferences where you're just not that interested in what they're talking about, and don't want to network with people.

The social side is definitely a highlight for me x

I am hopefully going to come to the BIBS on Friday, but I am not going to the conference this year as we go on holiday on Saturday morning. I am gutted to be missing it as it's my first one I won't have gone too. But you will have an amazing time, it's overwhelming but great. Hopefully I will get to say hi on the Friday if I do end up coming! xx
