I love nothing more than a trip to Boots. It's my idea of heaven. All those tempting lotions and potions, beautifully packaged, promising to transform our skin to its baby soft and blemish free best. It's no wonder the average woman allegedly spends £100,000 on cosmetics in her lifetime!Read more...

Ryan always wanted to get married in Vegas and luckily for him, when he ran it by his fiancé Beth she was up for it too! They travelled from New Zealand with 20 of their closest friends and family - 8 of them even went with them on the honeymoon to Hawaii! "Beth is a full time burlesque entertainer and lounge singer and my background is in theatre too, although I'm now mainly a web designer", explained the groom. "I really wanted to get married in Las Vegas, so Beth chose the date to fall on her 25th birthday, I think so I couldn't possibly forget either event ever."Read more...

I don't know about you, but I've noticed a frightening lack of wedding inspiration for grooms on wedding blogs. It's all dresses, cakes and flowers - not very manly! It can be really difficult to find groom styling inspiration when planning your wedding so today, let's try and do something about it. It's time to ditch the ill-fitting rental suits and celebrate some individuality. Let's hear it for the boys!Read more...

This may seem trivial and self-centred, but I've always wanted to be a bridesmaid. As a child I didn't once dream about my own wedding day, but I coveted the pretty, flouncy dresses that bridesmaids got to wear and the beautiful bouquets they got the carry. I wanted to do that so badly. "One day", I thought, "one day it will be my turn".Read more...

You certainly don't see many Edwardian themed weddings dotted about all the wedding blogs! Laura and Matt were married at the Asylum Chapel in Peckham, South East London, a deconsecrated church that is now hired for shoots and events.Read more...

Amanda and James were married in Derry, Northern Ireland. The day started with the bride getting ready at her parents' house and a catholic ceremony, but that's where the tradition ended! Their reception, at Thatched Cottage in Craft Village, was a true reflection of them as a couple. Casual, laid back and thrifty.Read more...

"I've been with my fiancé for nearly 7 years and when we got engaged in October I was over the moon. Now we are planning the wedding and I keep having dreams about running away and going on adventures on my own. We've talked about it and he understands it doesn't mean I don't love him and I've spoken to a lot of people who've told me its very normal but I'm worried about it." LaurenRead more...

On Thursday 24th July I'm hosting a networking party for those that hate networking parties. My fellow Blogcademy headmistresses and 75 eager blogger babes will be swapping business cards, making friends, sipping cocktails, nibbling on macaroons and dominating the photo booth all night long! Gala, Shauna and I will also be doing a live Q&A session where we'll answer as many blogging and business questions as we can live on stage. Finally, you'll leave at the end of the night with an army of new blogging BFFs and a bulging goodie bag full of treats!Read more...

Heather and Adam had their wedding at Race and Religious, a old house in New Orleans which is now rented out as a vacation house and quirky event space. Living quite far away from all their family, the wedding was always going to be a semi-destination wedding, and they picked New Orleans because they both just love it so much!Read more...

Whether you think they're super tacky or amazingly fun, there's no denying that geeky and themed wedding cakes are getting more popular than ever. I mean, why would you go for a boring, three-tiered, white wedding cake when you can have one of these instead?!Read more...

Wedding favours are a waste of time. They can be one of those things that you stress about for ages. You'll be trying to think of something personal to the two of you that your guests will also enjoy, but the fact of the matter is that most of them will just be left on tables at the end of the night.Read more...

Two very exciting things happened this week. On Wednesday my best friend from Uni came to stay. I haven't seen her in SO LONG (like, a criminally long time) and it was bloody amazing to hang out. You know those friends who even if you don't see each other for ages when you finally do it's like no time has past? That's exactly what it's like with Carly. I'm so happy to have her in my life. We drank cocktails, went shopping, we played The Logo Board Game (nerd and proud!) ... But the most exciting thing was that she asked me to be her bridesmaid!! Can you believe I've never been one before? Ahh double excitement!Read more...
