Stephanie first contacted me in August 2013 about her May wedding and is one of the most organised brides I've ever worked for.  She had very clear ideas about how she wanted her day to look but, equally, knew that she didn't want to spend hours on the day of the wedding setting it up herself.  Stephanie and Luke had opted for an elegant, classic look, with lots of white and beautiful pastels in the flowers and bridesmaids dresses.  It was a lot of work but a joy to set up such a pretty theme in a lovely venue.

We've been enjoying some glorious weather in the last few weeks and, according to those in the know, it's set to continue.  Yay!  However, for wedding guests the hot, sunny weather can be a bit of a problem.  There's a lot of hanging around at weddings and most of it's done outside, which can lead to overheated and grumpy guests.  Not something any bride and groom want at the reception!
