Did someone just say Christmas? No way! Usually I am very strict about when we can start feeling festive in our household. Normally it’s the weekend after my birthday, but as we will be out of the country for much of December this year, I have relaxed the rules a little as I don’t want…
Isobel and Chris wanted a total blank canvass for their wedding day, so having it on the family farm seemed the perfect choice. And a blank canvas it certainly was consisting of a field, a cow shed and all in the middle of the Cornish countryside.
Lara and Scott wanted to create a wedding day that was unequivocally theirs and boy oh boy did they pull it off! I mean it isn’t often you go to a wedding with the little mermaid and a storm trooper sat at the top table, metallic dinosaurs and a light up box with a swear…
This week has been crazy busy! Nowadays, that is something I don’t often like to admit as I try to prioritize but it’s been hard to avoid with our Sri Lanka trip just 3 weeks away. I can’t wait to get our travels started, but anyone who is self employed will know, it can be…
Miranda & Daniel’s beachfront destination wedding at Langosta Beach is one of the most beautiful weddings we have seen all year. As the grooms family lived in Costa Rica for many years, there was really no doubt that they were going to have the destination wedding in a place that Daniel and his family proudly called…
Julianna and Thaddaeus became husband and wife, surrounded by just their closest family and friends, at the beautiful Japanese Friendship Garden in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. It was enriched in cultural tradition and meaningful touches. Upon arrival guests could say a prayer over the bride and groom’s wedding rings. The couple’s unique guest book was a set…
It’s that time of the week again! You might remember, I took a month long break from wedding planning last month, as I didn’t really feel like there was much more I could do after our chosen celebrant/ planner said I wouldn’t be able to book our ceremony venue until 3 months in advance. Feeling…
Photography by Fiona Kelly Photography When it comes to weddings, there’s a lot of pressure to buy ‘things’. Dresses, suits, veils, jewelry, decor, stationery, favours, seating chart, welcome signs, seating signs, table numbers, place cards, guest book, cake topper and even more signs!! For a minimalist like me, the thought of buying so many items for my…
I mean seriously, how is it almost Halloween already? I feel like it was JUST summer! This week has been a busy one as Jess has been putting the finishing touches to her murder mystery night and I’ve gluing a million sequins and gems to a hat for my costume, which has taken FOREVER!! But…
Hello Guys & Gals! It’s been a while since we wrote an advice post on the blog and we thought it was about time we wrote another. Although today’s article is about picking the best and most professional wedding band for your wedding, it could easily apply to all types of entertainment as well as musicians. If…
Ugh, I don’t know about you but the weather this week has got me feeling so bleh! And with no sign of it getting any brighter out there, I’m in serious need of a pick me up! I’m really not a winter person which is part of the reason we started going on our summer…
Although I’m on a month long wedding planning ban, it doesn’t mean I can’t help you guys with your own plans this weekend. It feels like soooooo long ago since I got engaged but I still remember it like it was yesterday. It will forever go down as one of the best days of my…

Perhaps it’s because I’ve never really planned a wedding before but damn is it a roller coaster! Sometimes I am so excited I wish it was yesterday, other days I am totally overwhelmed by how soon it is, when it’s really not soon at all! I am still stressing over this date thing, worrying myself…
Planning a DIY wedding is hard enough, even if you have the time and skills. So, when it comes to adding your own handmade touches, when you have neither, it’s easy to throw out the idea once and for all and start over with something ‘easier’ but not necessarily ‘YOU’!. The thing is you can…
Phew what a whirl wind these past few weeks have been, filled with hen parties & weddings. I have to admit, although it has all been very exciting, I am looking forward to a much more relaxed weekend. This week was very exciting for me as I preliminarily booked my favourite videographers in the whole…
Cheer’s to the freakin’ weekend! I can’t believe it has been just one week since I last shared my my weekend wedding plans. I’ve only written a couple of posts but it has already made me realise just how quickly the weeks fly by! It took me a few days to recover from last…
