Yeah...I totally got sucked in. It was beautiful and I felt super proud to be British when I was watching it. I didn't cry but I was tweeting like a mad thing. And Kate's Alexander McQueen gown was flipping beautiful. Very Grace Kelly. Very 1950's inspired. I approve. I love weddings and I love LOVE and I truly do wish the couple a lifetime of happiness.Read more...

There were two things that I loved as soon as I saw this shoot - the model's gorgeous red hair and that dress! Very Vivienne Westwood inspired on both counts...and we all know how much I adore a bit of Vivienne. The shoot was set up to promote dress designer Nicki Hill's new range of bridal gowns. Based in Southampton UK, Nicki is famed her stunning couture gowns. Dresses like this one are made to order and created in her own studio.Read more...

Break down all your jobs in order of importance and then put each job into a set month. This way you just take each month at a time and you only need to look at a much smaller list of jobs.

Happy Thursday people! First off I have to give a huge shout out of love to everyone for your excitement and support over the Jasmine Star London workshop. I am thrilled at the response and so inspired by you all to get stuck into even more organising. This is going to ROCK! Secondly, I have a bit more news. Mark Niemierko, wedding planner to the stars, has asked me to attend his first Mark Niemierko Academy, a training course for wedding planners being held in The Dorchester in May (more info here). I'll be guest speaking about blogs, getting your work featured and doing things your own way! I'm honoured to have been asked and I'm looking forward to being able to share some of the knowledge and insider info that I've gained over the past 3 or so yearsRead more...

Kei & Wilson three-day wedding which they affectionately dubbed 'CAMP KASAL' (Kasal is the Filipino word for wedding.) On the first day the couple welcomed their guests, who all stayed over at their venue, and they had an intimate "Welcome to Negros" (Welcome to the Island) evening dinner. They served local delicacies such as batchoy (noodles), inasal (grilled chicken), kadios (A local stew) and apan apan (sauteed leaves). The wedding ceremony took place the following morning and was followed by a tree planting, a traditional breakfast and fun activities. At lunch the guests were treated to a "Boodle Fight" (a military style of eating where guests sit on long tables and the food is served on top of the banana leaves) lunch roasted pig, grilled fresh fish, steamed veggies and ensalada (salad with tomatoes and salted eggs).Read more...

So the big day is tomorrow. As I've said previously, I'm not doing a huge homage to the royal wedding on the blog (there's enough royal wedding fever elsewhere thank you very much!) however this shoot, inspired by the event, really caught my eye this week. I love it for it's slight sex pistols/1970's punk edge.Cool Britannia indeed! The shoot took place in Regent's Park, London last week. Bride Noelle hand made her vintage-inspired floaty dress. "We decided to do this cherish the dress shoot with a Great British theme, just in time to celebrate the royal wedding," photographer Rebecca told me. "We also tied in a fairytale them as the royal wedding is set to be a true British fairytale. Noelle also brought along her pet Pug percy for the shoot, who was just adorable and loved rolling around on the British flag."Read more...

So last week I was invited by Catherine Westwood, editor at Wedding Magazine, if I'd like to go hang out at a cover shoot with them. Ermmm... let me think about this for like two seconds...YES PLEASE! Before you go getting all excited, no I wasn't asked to model! It will probably be a cold day in hell before any wedding mag can have a pink haired chick on the cover. These publications have to appeal to the mass market and I feel that a neon-headed, inked bride might alienate a rather large proportion of their readership! I was up early last Thursday and on the train to London, excited and honoured to have been invited...even though a little (no, a lot) tired. I arrived at the shoot at 9.30 to be greeted by a familiar face in hairdresser Sev of The Hepburn Collection who had been invited to do the hair, and Julia Ford, art editor of the magazine. I also got to hang out with the rest of the team, many of whom I'd met briefly before at various wedding shows and events. Alison from Pollen Nation (who I worked with on The Big Fat Wedding Bloggers Photo Shoot) was even there to supply some of the gorgeous flowers.Read more...

The royal wedding is kind of a big deal...people worldwide are gearing up for the 'show' and even London has gone all patriotic for once. Union Jack flats hang above Regent St and pretty much every shop window is littered with red, white and blue tat. I however, am not so excited about the whole thing. I'm not adverse to two people falling in love and getting married...far from it in fact. I'm more than a little bit thrilled that William and Kate are getting married. I love marriage and I couldn't be happier for them! However it's the media charade that surrounds the whole thing that kills me...and the fact that, as someone that works in the wedding industry, this is supposed to be some 'once in a lifetime experience' for me...and seriously, if you'd been sent as many irrelevant royal wedding-related press released as I have, you'd be pretty over it too.

If you’ve always dreamed of wearing a vintage wedding dress, you’re not alone. Vintage has always been a popular choice for alternative brides, but it's a growing trend in the more mainstream wedding industry again too. Nearlyweds wanting to make more sustainable, eco-friendly choices are increasing looking at vintage gowns.

The cost of flowers has risen significantly since the pandemic. Many growers went out of business, and those that stayed had to rethink their operation - cutting production and wastage to maintain sustainability. There has also been a push for eco-friendly practices, which means investing in new technology. Factor in rising wages, transport costs, Brexit-related border checks, and soaring business expenses for growers and florists alike, and you’ve got some seriously pricey stems.Read more...

Do you ever play the people-watching game in big train stations? As somebody who first met my now-husband under the clock at Waterloo, I love giving back-stories to strangers as I wait. My favourite time to do it is when I spot somebody carrying a bunch of flowers. I wonder if those ranunculi mean “congrats on the new job”, or if those red roses mean “I’m sorry for being a prick”. Whatever the meaning, when it comes to flowers, there is always a message being sent. And, sometimes, there is even a whole secret language in bloom. So, why not use your flowers to help send the messages you want to on your wedding day?Read more...
