We’re living our Italian and French dreams this year!! And I can’t keep up with the gram hahaha!! Who else is with me on that 🖐🏻 - though I hope you’re enjoying my stories?
We’re gearing up for our next wedding (next week) which is probably our biggest to date, and it’s going to be insane!! So I wanted to share one of my all time favourites while we wait for next week!! Hehe 😝
Enjoy loves and I promise to get better, but know we’re busy beautiful bees 🐝 ###

Be equal
Be yourself
Be supportive
We’re all special, we’re all the best at what we do (don’t listen if you’re not on any of these best lists, because literally YOU ARE THE BEST!!!) and we’re all here to be ourselves. If we support each other and show kindness to all cultures, races, sexualities we’re all helping our beloved planet to be a better place.
Allowing yourself to accept kindness and love will help the community around you. We’re all learning every single day and it’s hard because each of us have our own story, but we should all listen to each others stories too. A lot of us have hard stories to tell, so don’t look at people differently if they don’t or can’t share it!!
Being a queer business and working with many many many cultures, religions, communities we have grown sooo much in a short space of time and we’ve been exposed to locations, people, communities I can only dream about. Each place and person has inspired us to grow and understand that person/community and that has been our biggest growth of not only the company but ourselves too!! We’re Matthew Oliver Weddings and we’re 100% equal!!!
HUGE, HUGE, HUGE BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Mr @bertie_matthewoliver for winning the best equality business award at @amourforums a couple of weeks ago, I couldn’t be more proud of your growth, your talent, your passion and your love for everyone around you!!! AND THIS AWARD SPEECH SHOULD BE VIRAL, because it’s 1000% inspirational.
Thanks @bytasneemalibhai for this video and @dandelioncelebrations @studiosorores for your videos too - truly appreciate it!!
Love you presenters 🥑 and miss you all!! @emilybrks @christy.barnett.london @iamloicc ❤️

Escort card wall of Royal oil paintings of guests to tell them where they’re sitting for dinner which flipped as a bar!! It also worked as a reveal so guests didn’t see the dinner setup until they got their painting!
So much fun and such a iconic wedding!!

VENUE SEARCHING IN FLORENCE - venue 5 @villacorahotel
WOW!! Is my first impression!! I was gutted last year as Bertie and my sister were invited here, while I was busy working 👎🏼, but YAY to come now 🤣
Just 15mins drive to central Florence this is A PERFECT HOME TO HOME HOTEL SOLUTION!! Service, staff, uniform is on POINT (yeah I look at this too)!! Plus the scent throughout the hotel makes you all warm and happy - look if you know you know, you know 🤓
43 rooms ✅
Pool ✅
Underground basement ✅ (no time constraints, though none of the others have either - should of said haha)
Coolest ballroom ever ✅
Okay let’s talk about this ballroom, seriously there isn’t anything like it! Love love and the murals/details everywhere is super impressive too!! Did you see the 🍑’s?
You have the option for 2 to 3 nights + buyout.
This is becoming super HARD!!! We’re going to need help at the end, 2 more coming, so stay tuned okay??!!
When in Florence post one of your favourite Florence designs!! We’ve currently had a fantastic day looking at insane venues in Florence (stories soon as you’ll be obsessed) so thought why not share this with my new favourite @nickiminaj song haha (I know)!!
So a bit of Italy and Nicki for your December day!! Thank you haha 😜
We’re actually back at this venue on Thursday ✌🏻
