Planning a spooky autumn wedding could be as simple as buying an unreasonable number of pumpkins. Instead, I’ve found myself spiralling over signage, décor, AI artwork and whether everything needed to match.Read more...

Why are wedding venues so expensive? Every venue I've looked at seems to double in price the second I mention it's a wedding. I know weddings take a lot of work, but I'm struggling to understand what I'm actually paying for. Is there really that much happening behind the scenes, or is it just the wedding tax?Read more...

You’ve found a venue that will let you bring your dog, started looking at black wedding dresses and agreed that your first dance deserves a full emo moment. Then three supplier contracts land in your inbox at once, someone needs a deposit and your mum wants to know whether you’ve booked transport. Wedmin can be an instant vibe killer. The bad news is it can not be avoided but putting a few practical systems can help you get things moving, share the responsibility and protect some time for everything else in your life.Read more...

If you have a clear idea of what you want to wear, commissioning a wedding dress gives you a say in everything from the silhouette to the last stitch. A bespoke studio develops the design with you, then builds it around your measurements over a series of appointments. It’s a commitment of time, money and creative energy, so knowing how the process works helps. From decoding the terminology to finding a studio that gets your ideas, here’s what to expect.Read more...

Maybe they’ve lived together for years, their kitchen is fully stocked and there’s very little room for another set of glasses. Now they’re getting married, and you’d like to give them something they’ll be pleased to receive. But buying a wedding gift for a couple with an established home already takes a little more thought. With more people getting married om their 30s than 20s these days, the traditional shopping list of toasters, towels and dinner plates might have been completed several birthdays ago. Look instead at what they enjoy, what they’d like to replace or what they’re saving towards. There are plenty of ways to treat them without giving them a storage problem.Read more...

By now we've all heard the De Beers diamond lore. In 1947, one slogan to promote diamonds as the stone for engagement rings changed everything. ‘A Diamond Is Forever’ was conceived by a copywriter in an advertising agency and it's now widely considered one of the most influential marketing campaigns of all time. Before this, there was no particular stone always used for engagement rings. Yet just like Queen Victoria and her white wedding dress, diamonds became a trend. Tradition followed and history pretty much rewrote itself.Read more...

Planning a wedding abroad comes with a strange contradiction. You have chosen to travel somewhere new, yet many venues will offer you the same package experience as every other couple who has passed through before you. Same ceremony set-up, same chair covers, same three options for florals.Read more...

After the wedding, a lot of dresses are shoved into the back of a cupboard without so much as a second thought. Whether you want to sell it, save it for your children, or even have it reworked to wear again, its really important to get it cleaned first. Even if it looks pretty clean, it probably isn’t. Sweat, sugar, alcohol, make-up, and dirt don’t always show up straight away, but they can cause discolouration and fabric damage over time. Times this by a thousand if your dress is white or ivory.Read more...

You’re going to have a wedding! Isn’t that the best thing ever? A whole day with everybody you adore, celebrating your beautiful love story. What could be more exciting and thrilling than that? For five years, I have written in this gorgeous magazine about how important it is to embrace this opportunity to have your day your way. I have sung from the rooftops about telling unsolicited opinions where to go. I have urged all rock ‘n’ roll brides to plan their weddings unapologetically. But, all along, I have never failed to add one teensy weensy caveat… Don’t be a dick about it.Read more...

It’s so hard to write an article about a wedding dress that doesn’t yet exist. But here goes nothing! When I think of my wedding and walking down the aisle, the last word that springs to mind is tradition. I’ve always been the black sheep of my family and proudly so. So, when it comes to wedding dresses, where do I even begin?Read more...

Your wedding bouquet has been carried down the aisle, passed between lots of diffident people, photographed from every possible angle and possibly abandoned beside the dance floor while you went feral to MCR. there are some beautiful ways to preserve them though, you just have to make the arrangements before the wedding because cut flowers start deteriorating fast. Do not leave the decision and research until after the wedding or you'll have much fewer options. if any at all.Read more...

Wedding contracts are easy to skim when you are keen to secure your date, but the details are very important. Never sign anything or pay a deposit until you've read and understood everything properly! A wedding supplier's contract should cove what they will provide, what you are expected to pay (and when) and what happens if either side cannot fulfil the booking. Here is what to look for:Read more...
