Laura and Simon wanted a wedding that felt like them. They didn't pick one particular theme. "We didn't really have a set ‘theme’," explained the bride. "With so many fantastic sources of inspiration we simply couldn't decide and commit to one thing. At the beginning, we felt overwhelmed, but soon realised that we needed to focus less on the best bits of other people’s weddings, and more on what we actually wanted for our own. It was important that whatever we chose reflected our relationship, interests and personalities and this is exactly what helped us to bring it all together."

Alternative Woodland Wedding

Alex and Maddy had different ideas about what their wedding should be like, but luckily they learned to compromise! "When we first started discussing the type of wedding we wanted, we realised we were on opposite ends of the spectrum", explained the bride. "Alex would have been more than happy with a simple registry office with minimal guests whereas I wanted something where we could celebrate with all of our friends and family, where I could feel a bit like a princess for the day! In the end we agreed on a rustic woodland theme and kept to a relatively small budget considering the size of our guest list. We had 105 people (big families!)."

One of the things I was most looking forward to on our recent trip to Japan was that we were going to take the Shinkansen (bullet train) to a few different cities. The transport in Japan is so fast and reliable and it really wasn't as scary as I thought it would be. (I wrote about our itinerary and all the ins and outs of getting the bullet train in my Japan 101 article.)

Cat and Andrew's September wedding had no theme other than them wanting it to pay homage to the West Country, where they live. A lot of things were found cheaply or homemade. The bride wore a dress by La Redoute, the groom was in Topman and the bridesmaids, ASOS. The cake was made by the bride's mum and they also arranged all the flowers themselves.

I, like the rest of the internet it would seem, I am obsessed with enamel pins. They're cheap, they're fun and add some much needed flair to any outfit. Of course they've been around for years, but within the last 12 months or so they've had a bit of a revival. Everyone seems to be getting in on the #pingame. You can now get everything from emojis, food, phrases, even celebrity portraits on pins which is why they're so popular - the creative possibilities are endless!

Ione and Will wanted their wedding to be bright, fun and homemade. It was also really important to them that all of our friends and family were there so they kept to a strict budget so they could accommodate everyone. "We met just under seven years ago on Brighton seafront at a club night called Club NME!" the bride began. "I was 18 and he was 23. I was his first girlfriend so we feel like high school sweethearts."

Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday dear Kathryn, happy birthday to me! I don't usually plan anything too extravagant to mark getting a year older any more. Although I love the idea of taking an exotic trip somewhere, or having a huge party, I always leave things until the last minute and end up doing something really low key - which actually suits me perfectly. Sweatpants and wine party for the win!

Honeymoon Travel Guide: Tokyo

Kat

April 6, 2016

The movie Bright Lights, Big City may be about New York, but I think the concept is much more suited to Tokyo. I've been very lucky to have travelled a lot over the past few years, every time falling in love with new places, but nowhere has my heart quite like Japan's capital. I am 100% a city girl. I love the hustle and bustle, that fact that everything's open super late, and that you never know who you might meet or what whirlwind adventure you might end up on next. However Tokyo is unlike any other city I've ever been because of one major thing - the people.
