Help us with a survey or two ma'am?

                 

I have to give a lot of thanks today for all of the help my friend Mrs McW and I have been given with our survey. We've been mentioned on the Facebook page of the lovely English Wedding Blog and have received advice from several other prominent wedding bloggers.

 

Moving into the wedding industry is scary stuff but we're really excited about setting up our business in the next year.

 

So here's a call to all my Bridechillers, Bridezillas, Zen-brides and just married ladies and gents to have a go at completing our survey so we can provide a kiss arse service to all of you in the future!

Thanks!

I'm back!

Well, I'm back. Ring on finger and head firmly out of the clouds I have come back to reality with a bump!

And you know what; I think I'm here to stay. Just because I'm not still planning a wedding it doesn't mean I don't have to stop. There are plenty of amazing blog sites out there which help you plan your wedding and I won't be competing with that. However I might just be having a go at helping you over the bumpy bits both pre and post 'I do'.

BF (now Dr L as his cover is about to be spectacularly broken) and I had the most incredible day. Here are a few pictures for you to see how we did it.

What do you think? Did I manage to look calm and controlled?

Heck yeah! I had the best day ever. Not only did it not pass in a flash but I remember every last second of it. Proof that embracing your inner Bridezilla and dealing with her calmly makes your day just as awesome as if you pretended you were gliding through everything stress free.

Enjoy and I'll be back with a post next week!




Need a quirky way to display your table names?
Why not use ceramic pens (from Hobbycraft) on plates collected from boot fairs,
decorative wall paper and some excellent 'dad in law' DIY skills making it up?



Marks and Spencer wedding cake with some sugar
craft additions made an awesome, mid budget cake



              

Our theme was our favourite authors. Each table had two books
to show people where to sit. Try Abe books for good second hand deals. 

Dr L and his Best Man Matt looking dashing in their
home made cravats - made inexpertly by moi!



  

Beg, borrow and steal pretty lanterns. Magical at night.
Sweetie tables are a must especially when you can
get custom made bags made up on Ebay from £5 for 50.



The Bridesmaids and Flowergirl with a bit of Autumn colour popping in their bouquets from Daisy Chain!

A rather over enthusiastic confetti shower. My advice....don't give out too much confetti! Bought on Ebay here.

Mr Selfridge's Car from Odd's Car hire. Love love love.

The much debated shoes. Comfortable and well worn on Honeymoon.

 

Wedding Beer festival? 100% success.
