I love a unique idea, the ceremony and reception areas were carved out of the wild landscape and instead of a wedding car the couple arrived by boat to their reception downstream ✨

You know it’s going to taste good when it looks like this 😍
POV - Awaiting the moment your partner walks down the aisle to greet you.
A nerve wracking but fleeting moment as you prepare to say 'I do'. Those final moments before the wedding commences are precious, Azura Gold have captured it perfectly in this shot.

Canapes - Never to be overlooked!
These delightful little snacks are the first bite your guests will enjoy on your wedding day. I have been to many weddings with guests who are ravenous by the time the couple say 'I do'. Always order more than you think, they'll definitely be received well if you choose the right caterers.

West Dorset Wedding Flowers captured the brief PERFECTLY. The autumnal florals and foliage bought together by hand dyed silk ribbons reflect the cold but bright morning this photograph was taken on.

Bridal Details - These are my favourite items to source within a wedding.
The final touches often make a look. I'm obsessed with Peridot Bridal's intricate detailing on their veils 😍

The Dress - One of the most important aspects of the day.
I speak to so many brides who intentionally put off dress shopping as they find the whole experience stressful. Not many are aware that the time frame for a dress to arrive in store can be between 6-8 months!
That's not to say you can't plan a wedding and buy your perfect dress in less time but I always recommend looking for the dress as early as you can. This helps reduce stress from your planning journey.

VOGUE ✨
The lovely Lizzy and George’s wedding was featured in Vogue last week, particularly Lizzy’s dress.
I had the pleasure of managing their beautiful day with wonderful suppliers and now, after reading the article, I’m itching for the wedding season to start again!
Wild, elegant and powerful. Centrepieces to reflect their surroundings.
Floral arrangements are SO important when it comes to wedding decor. They should reflect you as a couple and choosing the right supplier to create this for you is equally as important.
Flowers, With Wild Abandon
Supplier Spotlight!
Bread and Flowers are all about bringing people together through memorable feasts, their fabulous use of colour and full flavours never disappoint. They’re clearly passionate about food and what’s more, they adore a celebration! Sounds a bit like me 👀😋
WEDDING PLANNING TIP:
Non-drip candles exist! If you are hiring your table linen but still want the gorgeous glowy aesthetics of a romantic candlelit dinner then make sure you choose drip-less candles. This will help to stop any excess charges for damaged linen.
My heart 🥹, I LOVE MY JOB. Don't ever give up finding happiness in what you do. We spend a huge amount of time at work, why settle when there are so many opportunities out there. Take risks and your life will be so fulfilling.
Keep reading for everything you should be doing 6-8 month before the big day!
