So You Want to Write a Book..?

February 8, 2019

I got my book deal in April 2018. It was a big moment of celebration for me as it’s something I’d been thinking about wanting to do for over five years. I caution my use of words here - THINKING ABOUT – because that’s really all I’d been doing. I hadn’t actively been working towards getting a deal or writing a book at all. Because of this my experience of this whole process is probably quite different to that of someone ardently pursuing it. However, I hope sharing the things I’ve learnt throughout the process will still be interesting and useful to some of you.

Please allow me to be a broken record because HOT DAMNNNN, I am so thrilled with this cover! Nailing a cover-worthy shot is one of the most difficult/ stressful parts of creating a magazine so when we get it this right it fills my heart with JOY! I'm not even going to be modest about it because I literally love it so much. That glittery eye! The fluffy jacket! Her beautiful hair perfectly framing our logo - ugh it's all so good! I really hope you love it too.

October 2007 was when I first started writing about weddings on the internet. As a newly engaged 23-year-old I was quickly disillusioned with the wedding world that I was presented with and although Gareth and I didn't really know what we wanted for our wedding, we knew we didn't want any of what the wedding magazines were showing us. Spend £30k? Travel in a horse and carriage? Wear a big poofy strapless dress and designer shoes? NO THANK YOU.

September 10, 2018

I have been obsessed with writing and publishing wedding content for over a decade. I love sharing inspiration and planning advice every day on this website and in each issue of our print magazine. When people ask me what I do for a living I usually reply by saying I'm an magazine editor and blogger but from today I'm now able to add something else to that list - published author! YES, THAT'S RIGHT, I ONLY WENT AND WROTE A BLOODY BOOK!

Pastel Perfection: Style Me Sunday for Rock n Roll Bride Magazine

May 16, 2018

Nothing says ‘spring wedding’ quite like a pastel colour scheme, but the idea doesn’t have to result in something syrupy, wishy-washy or overly traditional. Those delicate, girly hues can still be Rock n Roll - all it takes is an injection of fun! So throw on a buttery soft biker jacket, some chunky accessories and your favourite kicks, but most importantly always remember to rock a carefree ‘this is my wedding and I’m going to have a damn good time!’ attitude!

Rock n Roll Bride Magazine: Issue 20!

April 26, 2018

Is planning your wedding turning out to be a massive drag? Are you struggling to choose your suppliers, arguing with your family over your ‘wacky’ ideas and tearing your hair out wondering how the hell you’re going to get all those DIY projects done on time? No matter how chill you might be in everyday life, there's just something about planning a wedding that makes even the coolest of babes have at least one meltdown. And it's not your fault! It's a stressful time anyway but the majority of wedding media only perpetuates that myth that this needs to be "the happiest day of your life" and that if it's not perfect you'll regret it forever. This is exactly why I started Rock n Roll Bride in the first place - to cut through the bullshit and share ideas and advice that would actually help you plan your wedding.

Non-Sucky Bridal Tees: Rock n Roll Bride Merch is Here!

March 15, 2018

One of my favourite things is connecting with you guys on social media and something I hear over and over in our private Facebook group (where we're about to hit 13,000 members, whhhhaaaat!?) is that there's a huge lack of non-sucky, non-cheesy, non-eye-roll-inducing bridal t-shirts available. T-shirts that you can wear on your hen do, to wedding shows, getting ready the morning of the big day itself... or maybe even post-wedding to celebrate your new wifed status. So I did some research, and while occasionally a high street or online store will bring out a wedding tee, if it doesn't 100% blow (do NOT get me started on the whole 'shedding for the wedding' thing!) it will usually sell out faster than you can add it to your cart and checkout. So I knew what I had to do, I needed to design my own!
