A little while ago I was staring at a shelf of wedding magazines in a shop and it felt like all the covers were actually SHOUTING at me. "100 wedding dresses you are NOT going to want to miss!", "Flower ideas for every conceivable wedding style!" "Buy this magazine and we will SOLVE ALL YOUR PROBLEMS!" It just felt very exhausting!Read more...

Producing a bi-monthly magazine is a dream come true, but I certainly can't do it all by myself. As well as Shauna and Samantha (our designers) and Gareth, who organises all the more technical aspects (printing and distribution) we rely heavily on the awesome submissions we receive, whether that be in the form of real weddings, freelance articles, photo shoots or DIY tutorials.Read more...

This year is just moving faster and faster and I can't quite believe it's nearly July already (and that my sister gets married next weekend!) The end of the month can only mean one thing though... the new issue of Rock n Roll Bride Magazine is about to go on sale (cue explosions, fireworks and popping bottles of champagne).Read more...

If you've picked up a copy of issue 7, you will have seen the Skin Deep photo editorial that I partnered with Nova of the Nu Bride on. Today I wanted to share a few extra shots with you all that didn't make the magazine spread (it turns out 8 pages just isn't enough ha!) The idea behind this shoot was simple, and the idea was sparked from an email that Nova received after an article she wrote for issue 4 about cultural representation in the wedding industry.Read more...

February 29th is special in the world of weddings. It's the day that, traditionally, women are supposed to propose to their men. Now, obviously I'm not one for tradition and you're not either, but I couldn't let this allegedly significant day pass without a mini celebration. So for TODAY ONLY we are offering issue 6 of Rock n Roll Bride magazine for FREE (you just need to cover the cost of postage). If you're in the UK that means you'll be able to snap it up for less than half the usual price!Read more...

On Friday Gareth & I packed up the car (again!) and drove down to Brighton (again!) for another School of Rock blogging workshop. The event was fabulous, my class were ace, and the whole thing left me with a warm n fuzzy feeling inside. As we drove away that night (slightly topped up with the celebratory after-workshop-wines - don't worry Gareth was driving!) I turned to him and gushed away about how incredibly blessed I feel. Like, how is this my life? As someone who tentatively dipped her little toe into the blogosphere all those years ago, I can't quite believe that people now line up to come and hear me speak about my journey. Like seriously... this is nutso. Even Darren Rowse of Problogger is singing my praises. Yeah no big deal or anything...Read more...

Yesterday's School of Rock was magical. We were a room full of girls (and er... Gareth - although I don't think he minded at all!) chatting about business, blogging and everything in between. I left on a total high, feeling proud of the little space I was able to create and excited to have made a gaggle of new friends.Read more...

So this is an unusual turn of events! On Monday we launched the latest School of Rock event in Brighton. Within 2 minutes 2 spaces had sold... within 5 minutes 6 spaces had sold... within 11 minutes 9 spaces had sold... within an hour and 45 mins we were sold out! HOLY CRAP YOU GUYS.Read more...

It's a huge cliché but I really have been truely blown away by the response to my School of Rock blogging workshops so far. Each event has sold out quicker than the last, with the most recent one being off the market within 8 hours! You guys really do know how to flatter me. I know I keep saying this too, but the last event, at Curradine Barns in the West Midlands has got to have been my favourite yet. The venue was stunning, the group that attended were awesome and we even got fed an amazing 3 course meal (all made in house by their head chef) afterwards! Triple win!Read more...
