If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times, more than anything else in your wedding, you should invest as much as you can in your wedding photographs. After the cake has been eaten and the dress is relegated to the back of your wardrobe, the photos taken of your special day are all that remain (well, apart from the marriage of course!) They will sit on your parents' mantelpiece forever and when you're old and grey you'll be dragging out that photo album to show your grandkids how young and gorgeous you looked.

Win a 1950s Inspired Wedding Dress from True Bride!

January 13, 2016

It's no secret that Rock n Roll brides love short, 1950s style prom wedding dresses. In fact I often think it is probably the style I'd wear if I was getting married again. Not only are they super duper flattering to nearly every body shape, but the short style gives some much needed sass to a wedding day ensemble! When my friends at True Bride, who have just launched a fifties-inspired range, got in touch to ask if I'd like to give away one of the dresses from their brand new Brighton Belle collection, after sobbing a little that I couldn't be the one to win it, I jumped at the chance!

Running your own business is probably one of the best things ever, but the fact that you don't get a Christmas party along with the rest of society is very sad indeed! So my fellow self-employed babes and I are planning on throwing our own cocktail, cava and Mexican food shindig this weekend. It's going to be epic and of course there's only one thing on my mind... finding a brand new outfit!

Obsessing over Latvian designer Katya Katya Shehurina's incredible wedding dresses is something I've been doing for a long time. Based in London, they specialise in breaking tradition with their bridal wear by bringing a fresh new look to vintage and boho styles. So, when they sent over these images of their dresses modelled by a gorgeous pink haired, tattooed babe which were photographed exclusively for Rock n Roll Bride, I was thrilled beyond belief.

Five Reasons Why Our Wedding Entertainment Sucked (& How You Can Avoid Doing the Same)

Kat

October 7, 2015

There's very little I would fundamentally change about our wedding. Sure, the styling would be very different if Gareth and I were to get married now, but in terms of how the day played out, it was petty much faultless. Except for one big thing - our entertainment. Having never booked a live band before in my life, I had no idea what we were looking for. So when a friend of my mother's said she went to a wedding recently where the band we're "great" and they came in under the budget we'd set aside for them, I was sold. "Easy", I thought, "that's another thing ticked off our ridiculously long to do list."
