Bright & Beautiful!


2013 is definitely going to be a year full of colour! With gorgeous coloured gowns on the catwalk and rainbow accessories everywhere, there’s no end of ways to bring some bold, bright colour into your wedding day.
If you’re not feeling brave enough to move away from a traditional white dress, why not choose bright, mismatched dresses for your bridesmaids?

These dresses look stunning when accessorized with different coloured bouquets and shoes for each bridesmaid!

Or how about a colourful bouquet for you?

Even the groom and groomsmen can have some fun with shoes or buttonholes!

Even simple parasols can be used to add a pop of colour!

Decorating a ceremony or reception space in this rainbow palette can be a challenge as you will want to avoid making it ‘tacky’ or overdone, but there are some really simple ways of creating a fun, colourful atmosphere...balloons, ribbons, paper lanterns and pinwheels are perfect for this...

How about a rainbow of sweets for your guests or a stunning rainbow cake?

So what do you think? If there are any brides out there brave enough to try this I’d love to hear from you!!



Save the Date Wedding Event with a Difference

The girls over at Save the Date Magazine have done it again...another amazing Wedding Event with a Difference last Sunday at The Roundhouse in Derby! I had a fantastic time and was so pleased to be asked to style this year's catwalk room...I've had so much lovely feedback about it so thank you to all you lovely brides who came along to have a look round..I hope you felt inspired!

I also had the opportunity to style a stand for Stancliffe Hall which is a truly stunning venue near Matlock. I will be exhibiting at their Designer Wedding Show this coming Sunday so come along and say hi and see if this is the perfect venue for your wedding day!





I made these giant paper roses which were used outside the catwalk room! I was so pleased with how they turned out and their lovely fun colours!




I styled the catwalk room in the theme of an enchanted garden...lots of lovely garden canopies, old wooden doorways and outdoor tables and urns tumbling with flowers...

















Here are a few piccie's of my stand...


















I also provided some bright and completely fun arrangements for the guys over at Black Pepper Mint Food Company...




Thanks again to Abbi and Lydia at Save the Date for all their hard work and for making it an amazing day for both brides and exhibitors!x
