It is looking like February and March this year are shaping up to be some of the busiest two months I've ever had because we are hitting the road and exhibiting at no less than FIVE wedding fairs in seven weeks! Oh lord, please help me.Read more...

Last week Gareth and I were invited to Urban Retreat, the spa in Harrods, to have their unique hammam experience and it was so weird/ awesome/ relaxing/ fun that I thought I'd share it with you! I also think it would be a super fun pre-wedding treat for either you and your fiance, or with a gaggle of hens. They even offer bridal and hen do packages too!Read more...

As much as I adore Marrakech (this recent trip was my third in two years!) it can be a very intimating and intense place. People yelling at you, motorbikes whizzing past you in narrow alleyways, donkeys pulling carts that look way too heavy for them, old men pushing enormous trailers full of everything imaginable... and all in 40°C+ heat! It's chaotic and buzzing all day and all night which is why having a calm oasis to retreat back to at the end of a long day isn't just advisable, it's a necessity!Read more...

Can you believe that the first National Wedding Show of the autumn season is next weekend? Me either! It seems like it was only about a month ago that we were doing the spring shows. I am super excited to get back on the road though, meet as many of you as possible and of course, launch my brand new veil collection that I've designed in collaboration with Crown and Glory!Read more...

A few weeks ago I was invited by wedding dress designer Caroline Arthur to attend her Perfect Fit Event at the picturesque Gate Street Barn near Guildford. The day was put on, not just to promote the amazing suppliers involved, but to share information to help educate brides about how to get the right fit for their wedding dress. This is something Caroline is super passionate about so it was so inspiring to see her in action. I learnt so much too!Read more...

Facebook Live is my new favourite thing. People have been telling me I should do YouTube for years, and although I've kind of secretly wanted to, I was worried about a) knowing what to talk about b) finding the time and c) having to learn how to edit video! Facebook Live has changed the game because now I can simply grab my phone, go live and chat away to my heart's content!Read more...

This isn't strictly a wedding related post, but when I shared some snaps from my visit to the Hello Kitty pop up cafe in London, I had so many comments and questions about it so I thought I'd write a post and share a few more photos. It would also make such a fun alternative hen do activity, or like we did, as a little pre-wedding dress shopping treat. We were in London to do some wedding dress shopping for Sophie so it worked out really well doing both at the same time (cake also helps you make better decisions don't you think?)Read more...

Today is momentous for two reasons. The first is that issue 7 of the magazine is now on sale! Run (don't walk) to your nearest WH Smiths, Sainsbury's or newsagents to grab yours right away. If you can't find one, remember you can always order or subscribe online. As ever, UK shipping is free!Read more...

Last weekend was amazing! I have never been more exhausted, but after being at the Manchester National Wedding Show on Saturday and Sunday I've remembered how much I really, really love getting out of the office - ha! It was such fun being surrounded by other wedding obsessives, meeting new suppliers and of course hanging out with you lot! To everyone who came along, visited our stand, said hi, took a selfie with me, bought a magazine or ordered a veil, I LOVE YOU.Read more...

I'm sure you will have heard by now, but Rock n Roll Bride is partnering with the National Wedding Show, the UK's biggest bridal event, to host an area for alternative suppliers in the spring. It's VERY exciting indeed! The exhibitor stands are filling up fast, and today I wanted to share some of my top tips for those of you wanting to come along and showcase your product. If you've ever wondered why some companies seem to be overrun with business after doing just one wedding show a year, whereas others struggle to get any bookings from them, read on!Read more...

I love Etsy. You love Etsy. We all bloody love Etsy! So when they got in touch to ask me if I wanted to attend the launch day of their 2015 wedding fair, and bring 20 readers along with me, I was thrilled!Read more...

In early December I received an email from Cole and Jakob of Nordica Photography, inviting me to speak at a wedding photography summit that they were putting on in Stockholm this coming October. It took me approximately 3.5 seconds to reply and say "OMG yes! Where do I sign?!"Read more...

One of my favourite things to do is speaking at events. As someone who used to suffer from crippling stage fright (and would avoid public speaking at all costs at school) this has been nothing but a surprise to me, let me tell you! But once you get over the anxiety, it really is super fun! Which is why I was thrilled when the babes at Flourish and Prosper asked me to be involved their workshop, The Wedding Academy. This is the first business workshop specifically aimed at people in the wedding industry, and I for one can't wait to attend!Read more...

A little known fact about me is that I was a huge nerd at school. I think people assume that I must have been one of the rebellious ones, hanging out behind bike sheds and bunking off classes, but actually, I was super well behaved. It wasn't until I hit 15, discovered rock music and boys that didn't resemble pre-pubescent gremlins, that I became a bit more of a wild child!Read more...
