As we look to spring it’s time to bring back the blush.
I love navy for weddings but sometimes people can feel it’s a more autumn 🍂 colour but you can easily bring it into a spring palette with a subtle pink palette 🎨
Who’s going pink for your wedding day what colour are you pairing it with? Let me know below 👇🏻

Happy New Year Everyone!!

Who got engaged this festive season? Who’s got their wedding planned for 2023?

Just wanted to do a little introduction post as it’s been a while too long I expect since I said hello 👋🏻

I’m Donna and I believe in the fairytale and my fairytale is two people meet fall in love get married and work hard for the rest of thier lives to make each other happy because they want to because they found their person 🥰

I’ve loved weddings my whole life it’s what led me to photograph them for 10 years, train as a planner and work in a Hotel as their wedding co-ordinator.

I have a YouTube Channel called Bride to Be TV aimed at helping you navigate the planning process. I’ll be restarting videos soon but there are more than a few up already for you including a mini budget series.

Remembering today those whose lives ended because of the unkindness of others.

Bullies and internet trolls how about you stop now? That person is a human being with feelings and emotions and you have NO IDEA what they are dealing with.

November weddings can be beautiful with the autumn leaves falling and the sun low in the sky. They can also be soggy and muddy so there are some things to consider.
First umbrellas either write it on the invite to remind folks to bring their own or provide them, consider hiring rather than buying talk to the company doing your chair covers they might have some or know someone who does.
It can also get pretty dark in November if you have an over cast day or are getting married later in the day so when betting photographers you might want to look for someone who also does studio photography with lights. Talk about the venue and the indoor option for photos so you can both be prepared if the group images need to come inside.
Finally if you are having an outdoor space as part of your venue then consider getting some cozy blankets and patio heaters so your guest are comfortable while outside.

They say Diamonds are a girls best friend well here’s some diamond insights from the fantastic Jacqui Larsson Fine Jewellery

How old do you think a natural diamond is?

Analysis of inclusions dates them anywhere from 1-3 billion years old. That’s over a thousand, million years… And in that time, they have been subjected to intense heat and pressure, survived a volcanic eruption and years of being exposed to the elements.

So if you want to know why diamonds are the undisputed stone of choice for an engagement ring, this should give you some perspective! They are not indestructible, but close to it. They have many wonderful properties including durability, intensely lustrous, and they produce a rainbow of spectral colours when moved in light. They’ll outlast your lifetime to become an heirloom.
