💍 1 Day to go! 🕍

Time to announce another 5 exhibitors who will be attending our Wedding & Events Show on Sunday! 🤩

Blossom + Bloom
We are mother and daughter duo, Janette and Lyndsay, based in the Dumfriesshire town of Thornhill. We love creating unique and personal floral arrangements, for any occasion. Every design, whether it’s for a wedding, funeral or gift, is tailored to the recipients personality, likes and dislikes.

Handmade by Zara
HANDMADE by ZARA is the home of luxury personalised handmade wax seal wedding invitations. If you are looking for colourful and matching modern wedding stationery, personalised to you and your colour scheme, then you've come to the right place!

Aileen Palmer Celebrant
I am an independent heart-led celebrant conducting weddings, vow renewals, naming ceremonies, Celebrations of Life, funerals and memorials in beautiful Dumfries and Galloway and beyond. As a celebrant, I love working with couples and families to create bespoke ceremonies to mark life’s big moments. I am here to help you create a uniquely perfect ceremony. It may be bonding in a loving relationship, welcoming new arrivals to your family or saying goodbye; it will always be authentic and led from our hearts, both yours and mine.

Strike The Pose
This glamorous selfie mirror captures full length photos using a touch screen reflective screen. “Strike a pose” then customise your pictures using the on-screen paint pad. You can even add your signature – your pictures are printed in less than 10 seconds. If you are after something a little different to wow & entertain your guests then look no further – Strike the Pose will without a doubt make your next event stand out!

Sweetheart Tablet
The perfect mix of traditional taste and modern style. Wrapped up nicely in sustainable packaging. Applying a modern twist to one of Scotland's oldest and sweetest treats. We are proud to produce new and exciting ranges of shaped tablet. Using a recipe handed down through generations of our family. Our Tablet is soft, creamy and will melt in your mouth. The perfect sweet Scottish treat.

It might be too late to say this... but I've had the Xmas lurgi and the kids are only back to school today, so this is my proper first day back at my desk in peace and quiet!

I've got plans for 2023! Some of them grand, some of them small, but I do intend to share them with you so that you know what I'm up to! Let's do this together.

It's been lovely to start making more and more invites. I've missed making them.

Thank you to everyone who has been enquiring with me lately! I'm doing my best to fit in my postponed couples and take on new couples too. This is my Zoe pocket fold invite, BTW.

If you want to save yourself the stress of organising your wedding stationery drop me a message and I'll get it sorted for you 📩

// HELLO //
So... it's been a while! I'm still here!

I'm not going to lie, I've enjoyed my unplugged lifestyle but it's time to come back! I'm starting to feel more positive about weddings and things opening back back up and just getting on with life. Yes, my glass is always empty- another bottle please waiter!

So whatever you're doing with this Bank Holiday: enjoy it!

A really good article by Natasha Radmehr in today’s The Sunday Post about the impact of COVID on wedding suppliers.
Including me!

It’s been a tough year, for us all. Just because my business is small doesn’t mean it’s not viable. I’m fighting hard for it and speaking out where I can.

I’m looking forward to better times.
