Q&A With Becky from Waves Weddings & Events

August 27, 2021 | Coastal Wedding, Kent Wedding

Q. Hi Becky! We understand you specialise in wedding planning from Margate, Kent to Mobay, Jamaica… that’s quite a combo. Can you tell us a bit about your background and how Waves came about please? A. Yes, it is quite a combo indeed and people often wonder how it all came about, to be honest I have worked in events for years so it’s always been a passion of mine. In 2017 I went travelling and spent some time living and working at an amazing retreat in Jamaica and I literally just fell in love with it there. I noticed…

Today we hear from Kaz of Confetti Coast Photography. She specialises in photographing coastal weddings and is passionate about sustainability. Her passion for her business really shows as she tells us about Amy & Sam’s Portsmouth wedding that changed shape due to the Covid pandemic… Q. Hi Kaz! Can you tell us how you initially met Amy & Sam and how it came about they booked you for their wedding? A. I’ve known Amy for a few years, first meeting her at a friend’s vintage style wedding at Grittenham Barn where she was singing. I was really struck by her…

Dream Wedding Venue – The Boat Shed

April 14, 2021 | Boat shed wedding, Boat yard wedding, Bridal Inspiration, Coastal Wedding, Hampshire Wedding, Laid Back Wedding, Wedding Venue

Sometimes I think The Boat Shed project was all a dream. Did I dream about a unique waterside space filled with trestle tables, festoon lighting and flowers? It seemed so real; the taste of cold fizz, the servings of street food, the sound of the band rehearsing… Was my whole career a figment of my imagination? I think I might be going slightly mad. Is anyone else going slightly mad? As it stands our first wedding is the end of June next year. It seems soooo long away but BRING IT ON. I’ve had my hair cut now, and…

Hampshire Wedding Venue – The Boat Shed

May 21, 2020 | Boat shed wedding, Boat yard wedding, Coastal Wedding, Hampshire Wedding, Relaxed Wedding, Wedding Venue

Ok so we’re nearly into June and this summer is looking VERY different to the summer I imagined. I think it goes without saying that everyone’s summer/year is looking very different to the one they imagined. My heart goes out to everyone who has had to postpone/cancel their wedding. The thing about the Covid-19 outbreak is how everyone’s been affected in their own way and I just hope those planning 2020 weddings have managed to put a suitable plan in place. We don’t know yet how it’s all going to affect the wedding industry in the long term but it’s…

Lucy & Jack’s Sunny Winter Wedding at The Worthing Dome

April 23, 2020 | Coastal Wedding, real wedding, Sussex Wedding, Vintage Wedding, Wedding Venue

There is nothing we don’t love about this wedding. One of our favourite venues (we really really hope to be at The Worthing Dome for Margot’s Wedding Fair on Sunday 27th September!), beautiful people, stunning flowers, a 20s theme suited to a 2020 winter wedding, all captured by one of our very favourite photographers (Teddy Pig Photography). (Also, Bride Lucy works for the NHS so lets clap extra loudly for her tonight) Q. What was the theme/style for your big day? A. 1920s/Art Deco/vintage. As the venue has beautiful Art Deco-style windows and it was 2020 it was an easy…

The Boat Shed @ Salt – 8 Ideas to Inspire

December 11, 2019 | Boat shed wedding, Boat yard wedding, Coastal Wedding, Hampshire Wedding, Top tips, Unique Ideas, Wedding Fair, Wedding Venue

Margot’s Wedding are managing weddings at brand new Hampshire wedding venue, The Boat Shed @ Salt. Our exciting launch wedding fair is taking place on 8th March where they’ll be plenty of unique inspiration from talented local suppliers. In the meantime here are some ideas we love… Pie & Mash A couple who recently viewed for an October wedding wanted pie and mash from local independent record store/pie restaurant Pie & Vinyl. We thought that was an ace idea for cosy autumn vibes. They even do cana-pies (see what they did there?) as mini morsels to accompany reception drinks. We…

The Notebook Styled Shoot @ Gins Barn

November 21, 2019 | Barn Wedding, Coastal Wedding, Creative Styling, Styled bridal shoot, Wedding Venue

At the moment, with everything I’m doing with The Boat Shed, I’m drawn to anything coastal and nautical… so when Tasha Mae contacted me with this styled shoot I jumped at the chance to feature it. I just love the arty, elegant interior of Gins Barn. It’s so inviting with its high beamed ceilings, muted colour palate and faded grandeur. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the amazing flowers with the oars (I think we’ll be borrowing that idea for The Boat Shed!) and can we take a minute to appreciate the chickens who put in an appearance please? It’s always really…
