My London Wedding (part 1 – getting ready)

Bride and Father of the bride

This weekend (Sat 19th to be precise) was our first wedding anniversary. What an amazing year, still happily married, have my lovely husband and just had our first baby Coco – I couldn’t really ask for much more. Time has flown by and seems like it was just yesterday that I was waiting for my bridesmaids to arrive outside the church (their cab never turned up and they ended up having to run all the way to the church – luckily it wasn’t snowing!). So I thought given that its such a special time for me I would post a…

I know you all love vintage weddings because my post on the 1920′s vintage wedding fashion shoot by Archibald Photography was really popular. So I am sure that you will be over the moon to hear that we’re going to be treated to a vintage wedding evening in London next year. I was gutted to miss the last one – having just had baby Coco I couldn’t make it – but this one is firmly in the diary (its March 3 by the way). The vintage wedding evening will be hosted by My Sugarland owner and former stylist to the…

Designer Wedding Show – Battersea Park

Today there were lots of fantastic UK wedding suppliers, from florists, like Wild At Heart, to milliners such as Janie Lawson, from dress designers to make up artists and masses of photographers. I met lots of fantastic people that are perfect for Little Miss Wedding…

Autumn Flowers - Flourish and Green

We’re so lucky with this gorgeous autumn weather – it made me think its the perfect time to have a quick peek at a lovely autumnal wedding arrangement lots of warm orange and rusty red hues. “We loved doing this display for Francesa and were delighted with the feel it created, it so fitted in with the surroundings in Norland Square. We used available foliage together with hydrangeas, gorgeous golden and rusted coloured chrysanthemums, michaelmas daisies, rose hips and lilies which gave such a gentle autumn feeling with the surrounding trees in the square also turning colour” said Britt from…

Summer wedding flowers – seasonal and scented

Flower arrangements in vintage glasses

  I am loving all these pics that I am getting from florists of their beautiful summery wedding arrangements. This is the work of Britt and Liz from Flourish & Green – a company that began as the working dream of two friends who together channelled their natural talent for floral design and love of flowers into creating sensational floral displays. Britt did all the flowers at my wedding (with the help of my good friend) so I can personally vouch for her and say she was fantastic- the flowers looked amazing, she was reliable, great value and its the…
