Stretch Your Decor Budget Without Sacrificing Style

Though your big day is all about saying your vows and getting married, your wedding ceremony is possibly the shortest part of your day, but your decor can create magic all day long!
Thoughtful planning and with a little help from your friends ( or planner) you can reuse your ceremony decorations, which not only saves you money but also ensures every space feels cohesive and beautifully styled.
Here Are Some Clever Ways to Reuse Your Decor:

BACKDROP/ARCH: After your “I dos,” repurpose it as a stunning photo booth feature, behind the top table, or as a cake display backdrop.

AISLE FLOWERS: Arrange them on guest tables as centerpieces or scatter them around key areas like the gift table or bar.

LANTERNS & CANDLES: These versatile pieces can highlight staircases, mantelpieces, or cosy corners throughout your venue.

FLORAL INSTALLATIONS: Move them to fireplaces, alcoves, or even to frame the entrance for a grand reception welcome and beautiful photo backdrops

Every piece of decor tells a story, why not let it shine in multiple chapters of your day? 🌸

WINTER WONDERLAND WEDDING

I was lucky enough to take part in a styled shoot this week, which brought back so many wonderful memories of my own Christmas, themed wedding back in 2016.

I can say with all honesty that my wedding here in the UK was one of the first to take place outdoors on Christmas Eve at 5 pm. To make it happen, we needed special permission and a willing registrar, luckily, the fabulous Kate at North Lincolnshire Registrars made my dream a reality.

The day was filled with love, sparkle, and a touch of festive magic.

We said our vows under a fairy lit tree, with a snow machine creating the perfect wintery backdrop.

Indoors, the magic continued with a winter wonderland of trees, twinkling fairy lights, and an unbelievable amount of candles, casting a warm, intimate glow.

Whether it’s the twinkling lights, frosty touches, or cozy festive vibes, Christmas themed weddings hold a special place in my heart. They’re the perfect way to make the season even more magical.

Be inspired by our decor for your own winter celebration! 💍

What a Week!

From attending meetings to discuss my digital planning guides to preparing and providing magical winter décor for not one, but two fabulous projects, it’s been a whirlwind of creativity and planning here at Elaine’s Wedding Consultancy! The 1st, photos attached, and what a fabulous job the Osh Gosh Gowns Team did turning my inspiration board into reality. I'm so excited to see the next come together next week.

As the weekend approaches, I'm taking a moment to pause and recharge. I have a thanksgiving dinner and a birthday lunch to look forward to.

Wishing you all a fabulous weekend filled with love, laughter, and maybe a sprinkle of Christmas magic ❤️

A Day in the Life of a Wedding Consultant

Ever wondered what a wedding consultant actually does all day? Let me give you a little peek behind the scenes...

My day started today with a strong tea and diving into emails. This week, I'm helping a venue design a new package that combines elegance and practicality, every detail counts!

Mid-morning, I caught up with Julie Bon Appetit Specialist Catering (my amazing caterer friend) to finalise some finishing touches for a little project we are working on.

Lunchtime was a blur as I delivered decor to another great friend in the wedding industry for her team to create a window display based on winter wonderland mood board i created for them.

A mid afternoon appointment with another wedding supplier discussing the upcoming launch of my digital workbooks

By the late afternoon, I was deep into creating digital workbooks for DIY couples. These little guides are packed with tips, checklists, and inspiration to help couples feel confident about their big day. (Side note: if you’re planning your own wedding, these might just be a lifesaver!)

And tonight, because work doesnt stop It’s all about brainstorming social media content to inspire and engage with all of you.

Every day is different, but they all have one thing in common, helping couples and suppliers bring their wedding dreams to life!

What would you like to see more of? Behind-the-scenes glimpses? Wedding tips? Tell me in the comments, I’d love to hear from you!

Don't forget to join my waitlist to be first to know the launch date of the digital wedding planning guides

💍 Finding the one, YOUR PERFECT WEDDING DRESS is such an exciting part of your wedding journey! 🥂
I just had to share these fabulous tips from Wendy at Osh Gosh Gowns in Scunthorpe to help you get started:

If you're a in Lincolnshire or beyond, I can't recommend Wendy and her team enough. Book your appointment today and start your journey to finding the dress that’s just right!

Here are 3 top tips to help guide you when starting your search for THE ONE. Finding your perfect wedding dress is an exciting and special journey, and we want to make sure you do it right - first time ✨

🤍Start early: we always advise to start the search a year before your big day, as wedding dresses can take 6-8 months to be delivered to us. Our in-house seamstress will take care of any tweaks that need to be made on your dress 2-3 months before, to allow for a flawless fit.

🤍Set a budget: setting a clear budget before your appointment will allow you to focus more on the dress that you want, as well as any finishing touches such as a veil, shoes, jewellery and other accessories that will complete your bridal look.

🤍Choose Osh Gosh Gowns: our friendly, welcoming team make it their mission to make everyone feel at home at our boutique. With years of experience in bridal styling, we are sure to find each one of our brides the most perfect dress - every time! Don't just take our word for it - our hundreds of 5 star reviews on Google will reassure you🫶

WHY I WANTED TO CREATE MY WEDDING PLANNING GUIDES

This has been a calling of mine since 2019. Wow, where has the time gone? Writing this down makes me wonder, Why has this taken me so long? Well, here are a few excuses 😆, planning weddings, COVID, then catching up on all the delayed weddings, and then emotional decision to give up my venue lease at Elsham Hall after 13 successful years. It’s been a bit of a journey! But now, I have a clearer mind and i still love all things wedding, so I’m finally making it happen. Release day is on the horizon, eeeeeeek, I'm so excited!

With over 20 years of experience in the wedding industry (wow, I feel old just saying that), I can honestly say I live and breathe weddings. I've had the absolute honour of working with so many amazing couples, helping them create the most magical days of their lives, and being called a real-life Fairy Godmother. ✨

Along the way, I’ve learned something important: while I plan weddings daily, most couples plan just one. They often need a bit of guidance. And while having a professional wedding planner or coordinator is a huge help, not every couple has the budget for it, so that’s where my guides will come in.

I’m pouring my heart and expertise into these digital wedding planning guides. Every time I proofread them, I can’t help but add more detail, there’s just so much to share! They’ve turned out to be incredibly detailed and comprehensive, even surprising me with how much knowledge there is to pass on.

These guides are for couples who want to plan their big day themselves but still want the tips, tools, and confidence of an experienced professional by their side. I’ve broken everything down into separate manageable guide books covering every aspect of the day. My goal is to take the stress and overwhelm out of wedding planning and make the process as fun and exciting as it should be!

These guides aren’t just about logistics, they are about helping you bring your vision to life while staying on budget, being organised, and feeling confident.

Whether you’re planning solo or have a team of family and friends, these guides are here to support you every step of the way. Think of them as your behind-the-scenes cheerleader and expert consultant all rolled into one.

Got a wedding planning question on your mind? Drop it in the comments! I’d love to include tips for you in future posts.

5 Creative Ways to Ask Your Bridesmaids to Say ‘Yes’

Getting ready to pop the other big question? Asking your closest friends to be by your side on your big day is such a special moment! Here are 5 creative ways to ask your bridesmaids to join you on your wedding planning journey:

1. Personalised Gift Boxes
Fill a cute box with little treasures like mini champagne bottles, candles, a heartfelt note, and maybe a hint of your wedding colors. It’s a memorable, keepsake-filled way to ask!

2. Memory Lane Scrapbook
Put together photos, mementos, and little stories of your favorite memories together. Add a final page with a note: “Will you be my bridesmaid?” It’s sentimental and truly meaningful!

3. Coffee Date Surprise
Plan a casual coffee date and surprise her with a special drink order or a custom mug that says, “Bridesmaid?” It’s sweet, simple, and gives you a chance to celebrate together!

4. Jewelry Keepsakes
Gift each friend a necklace or bracelet with a personal message. Include a card that says, “I couldn’t say ‘I do’ without you!”

5. Throw a Bridesmaid Brunch
Gather your friends for a surprise brunch and pop the question over mimosas and pastries. It’s a perfect way to kick off the celebration and make memories right from the start.

However you ask, just remember it’s about celebrating the amazing people in your life who’ll be by your side. Want to read more, pop across to my blog for tips on choosing your bridesmaids

Sundays are for slowing down and soaking it all in. I've had a lovely relaxed Sunday, a spot of shopping with hubby this morning, a bit of creative faffing this aftenoon and then my cherubs were here for a family roast this evening.

Feeling lucky and appreciating the little moments that get overlooked in the hustle and bustle.

Tonights plan , fluffy blankets, a cheeky slice of cake and a movie snuggled with him indoors. (because, why not?).

I hope you’re all taking a little bit of time for yourselves today too! ☕
