Winter Weather 🌬️

We often get asked about providing structures during winter months. Extreme weather conditions are more frequent during this time so we tend not to provide large structures for a number of reasons.

Storm Darragh is certainly pulling the plug on many seasonal events this weekend. Hugely disappointing for many, yet unavoidable for safety purposes.

In fact we wrote a blog post about it to explain some of the considerations when planning an outdoor winter celebration. There is a link on our bio if you are tucked up inside and fancy a read.

Christmas is a very popular time for engagements and we can't wait to hear from you about your plans for a spring, summer or autumn celebration.... just not winter ☃️ ❄️

Happy Anniversary to us 💕 16 years 💕

The weather was pretty mad that day, we had every season make an appearance.

We didn't think marriage would alter how we felt about each other, but it actually really did. Without sounding too soppy, we feel closer, bonded in a way we weren't before and that's part of what makes our job so great, knowing in a small way we can add to the day couples will remember forever.

Signing off for the rest of the day to have some family fun.
