Elopements and micro weddings are such fabulous options, with lots of benefits when it comes to your nuptials; more time for you and your partner, less planning which can mean less stress, an opportunity to create exactly the vibe you want, and often a lot less expense than a full-blown wedding! But no matter how big or small your wedding, what you chose to wear is an essential part of the day.Read more...

Part elopement, part micro wedding, Brenda and Nick wanted to get married abroad, but not entirely on their own. Rather than eloping just the two of them, the couple, who are from Wisconsin, invited eight of their best friends to come to England with them as their bridal party! Brenda chose autumnal colours for the faux flower bouquets and her bridesmaids' dresses, which perfectly suited the October weather in London.Read more...

When Hannah and Nate decided to tie the knot, they knew they didn't have a lot to spend, but that wasn't going to stop them having the wedding they wanted. Both line cooks, they were lucky enough to be offered the restaurant where the bride works as their venue, which they used after hours. Everything else was homemade and their secondhand outfits were pieced together from pieces found at Poshmark and Goodwill, totalling less than $50 combined!Read more...

Dress shopping can often be the most fun and exciting part of the wedding planning process, so I don’t blame you for wanting to dive right in! Before we even talk about the timeline, make sure first that you have a date set for your wedding, the venue booked and a budget planned out for the dress. The sweet spot for dress shopping is about 12–18 months before your wedding day.Read more...

It’s often assumed that the bigger the wedding, the more stressful it might be to plan, but we’re not so sure that’s true. While planning any sort of wedding, you’re likely to come up against many hurdles along the way and eloping is no different! Whether you're still weighing up your options, or you’re firmly on the elopement path, my goal is to offer understanding, support and perhaps a bit of inspiration on how to get yourself through the unique course of obstacles an elopement can bring.Read more...

These are dark times for the wedding world. Dark, dark times. If this were a Disney film, the mice would be in shackles, and there’d be a rooster crooning, “But not in Nottingham” from the corner of a stony cell. An idea has been growing slowly beneath our feet, in our peripheral, in the corners of our mind. A new-age abhorrence that has me scratching my weary dinosaur head with my little dinosaur claw. And with its arrival, we hit rock-bottom in our descent into a lake of vapidity. It is, without hyperbole, the final downfall of romance. I bring you: wedding content.Read more...

In many cases, when it comes to planning your rock n’ roll wedding, more is more is MORE. More cake? Yes please. More flowers? Don’t mind if I do!

Within the chaotic colourful cacophonous cornucopia of planning a wedding… it can be very easy to get completely carried away.Read more...
