Another sneak peak is in!!!

Last weekend we were in a very sunny Provence with N+D and it couldn’t have been more perfect. N’s elegance and style was instrumental in both our design planning and the exquisite selection of vendors that made this 3-day whirlwind celebration at one for the archives.

More photos coming soon but, for now, a huge thanks to the lovely for trusting me throughout and to this group of fabulous humans who made it all happen:

I just got the previews from last weekend and I can NOT decide which one to post first! I’m opting for this beautiful shot as it shows our gorgeous new white and gold chargers and I think I’ve promised photos of these to at least 700 people, so here they are!

A+C’s wedding was every bit the ray of sunshine I needed last week (both literally - it was very warm ☀️- and metaphorically). I don’t even have words to describe the outpouring of love I witnessed from their family and friends. Officiating their wedding was a privilege and being their coordinator and advisor was my absolute honor.

Thanks, as always, to the incredible team. New friends were made at this iconic event and I’m sure I’ll be seeing you all again soon!

I’m a little bit obsessed with C+J’s wedding album, hot off the press. you really are an artist 🤩 this gorgeous shot shows how your wedding arch has so more to give than just the 25 minutes of your ceremony 🫶🏼

What a week it’s been! Between next week’s caterer cancelling, my body finally giving up and forcing me to take a break, my little kitty’s health dramas and plenty more, I couldn’t be more in need of this weekend at the ocean to get myself back on track for August’s gorgeous weddings.

But tonight all has been made better by receiving more sneak peak pics from of M+D’s beautiful, heart warming wedding last weekend. Marie dancing into dinner was such a wonderful, authentic moment of joy and Dannie and Drew captured her spirit perfectly in this photo.

It warms my soul after a week where my soul has been dragged backwards kicking and screaming through the proverbial mud! Wedding planning is not for the faint of heart!

What an incredible weekend celebrating M+D’s love with the sweetest group of humans. Here they are at foot of the iconic stone staircase on their wedding day this past Saturday at in SW France, captured by the equally iconic ❤️

Back in the office tomorrow to crack on with finalizing the second half of our wedding season ahead of taking my first days off in 7 weeks this weekend for some very much needed R&R!! 🤩

Brilliant advice from the lovely Kerri at Bridal Indulgence 🔥

ADVICE // We could not agree more with this quote from Coco Chanel, espeically when it comes to your wedding dress!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
You will most likely be wearing your wedding dress all day and into the evening, so it's important that you're comfortable in your wedding dress and that it allows you to do all the important things you want to do at your wedding; walk, sit, eat, drink and dance! ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Here are some things to consider to ensure your wedding dress is comfortable:​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
1. When wedding dress shopping, feel the fabrics and take note of how they feel when you're trying on the samples. If you have very sensitive skin, it's important you don't wear a fabric that will aggitate it. When trying on embellished/beaded dresses, see how they feel under your arms and make sure they don't rub.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
2. Consider the fit of the dress and make sure you're able to walk around and sit down in. The chances are that the sample you try on won't be in your size, but ask your bridal stylist if they can clip/pin it to give you an idea.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
3. When you have you dress fittings with your seamstress, be sure to let her know if anything feels uncomfortable. She can only see how the dress is fitting you, but she can't feel what you're feeling.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
If you do fall in love with a dress which isn't the most comfortable - perhaps it’s quite heavy - but you have your heart set on wearing it to say 'I do' in, you can always change into a different dress for your reception. We have a beautiful collection of mini dresses from ​​​​​​​​

It’s amazing to think that, only a week ago, and I were wax stamping these boutonnière tags overlooking the waves lapping at the beautiful Isola Bella in Taormina, Sicily 🌊 preparing for our first wedding of the busiest season the destination wedding world has ever known.

One week, two countries and three flights later, I’m enjoying a morning in bed with my pups 🐶 and of course my laptop! Because with just 10 days till C+C’s celebrations start at and 20 days till J+N’s long awaited events at , lazy Sundays have long since been a thing of the past for us wedding planners!

It’s all worthwhile though when we now finally get to see the results of our labour, like the thankful hugs from family members at the end of the day and then of course the gorgeous photos 🤍

What. A. Day.

After covid scuppered their plans throughout the whole of last year, Erin and Erik received their fair dose of good karma with the most beautiful weather for their iconic wedding in Sicily yesterday.

My heart is absolutely full of love for the incredible team working with me to make their day so perfect ❤️

C+Y. Going down in the ATWGM history books as our first wedding post-Covid. In the month preceding the big day, almost every original supplier pulled out for reasons strongly or tenuously relating to the pandemic. Almost definitely the wedding that caused me the most sleepless nights. Worth every single ounce of stress 🤍

I just love the halcyon days following the wedding season when beautiful photos flood my inbox, like this one of the gorgeous V+AM at their intimate wedding on the Arcachon Bassin last month. Extra points to Darek Smietana] for hiding in the bushes to capture this special moment!

Well, that’s a wrap 2021! Okay okay, it’s not NYE just yet, but since the beginning of August we’ve successfully executed 5 gorgeous weddings across 3 countries and, in the current environment, that is something to celebrate!
_
From Montpelier to Arcachon to London to Milan and finally to Tours last weekend, we’ve clocked up over 4,000 miles!
_
I’m so excited to share photos with you over the cold winter months. But right now, it’s straight back to the office for me as 2022 will be knocking at our door sooner than we think! I’m SO excited to be planning weddings again instead of postponing them. Covid, you’d better stay under that rock because 2022 doesn’t want you 😜
