The Perfect Dress...

Finding the perfect dress is one of the most important parts of planning your big day....

Well, I am pleased to say that I have two more happy brides, who have both found 'The one'!

I accompanied Fiona, her mother-in-law to be and her friend dress shopping last weekend, we didn't even make it to the third shop as Fiona found 'the one' in the second shop and was over the moon! Her choice is beautiful!

Fiona and Steve's wedding takes place on Friday 30th July 2010...

I also arranged a day of dress shopping for kellee and her mum at some of my favorite bridal boutiques in Chesterfield, where Kellee found her perfect dress! I can't wait to see it...!

Kellee and Steve's wedding takes place on Saturday 22nd August 2009...

Inspiration Story Board

I created this story board for Tara & Matt who's wedding will take place exactly a year to the day - On Saturday the 24th April 2010!

When chatting about colours, themes and decorations with my couples I often find we end up with lots of ideas, pictures and cuttings from magazines. A great way to start to visualise how all the different decorative elements could work together is to collate them all on one board. Straight away you will be able to see the look and feel of your dream wedding start to come through, as all the individual images that are featured obviously inspire you.

Remember to then take your inspiration story board with you to your appointments with your venue, florist etc... to visually explain to them the overall look and feel your are trying to create.

Venue Search

I have had a lovely few weeks with my clients, Nafeesa & Paul visiting lots of beautiful wedding venues. Nafeesa & Paul live in Canada and have decided to celebrate their marriage with their family and friends in their home county of Derbyshire in July next year. They have been here visiting over the Easter holidays so we got together to start the search for the perfect wedding venue! After three days, over 8 venues and lots of cups of coffee later we found the perfect setting for their big day.... Their choice is beautiful!

After a short visit, they have returned to Canada, leaving me to organise everything else...! I am very excited to be part of their wedding plans and after listening to all their initial ideas I know it's all going to look fantastic.... All their ideas are top secret as they want everything from the cake to the decor to be a surprise for their family and friends... My lips are sealed!

Nafeesa & Paul's wedding will take place on Sunday 4th July 2010
