Wedding Industry Personal Branding Event

May 27, 2020 | Sussex Wedding, Wedding Industry, Wedding Suppliers, Wedding Venue

Back in February (when I still had a brain), I hosted a personal branding networking event with my good friends at Wagner Hall in Brighton. My favourite small businesses are the ones where the owner’s personality shines through and I’m always interested to get to know the person behind the brand… which is why I do ‘supplier spotlight’ and Q&As with wedding suppliers on the blog. I want to know who they are, how they live, what inspires them. I want to know about their background, how they got started, what future plans they’ve got. Am I just plain nosey?…

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

There is nothing we don’t love about this wedding.

Top 5 Wedding Venues in Hampshire

March 12, 2020 | Barn Wedding, Hampshire Wedding, real wedding, Relaxed Wedding, Top tips, Wedding Venue

We hand over to Hampshire-based photographer Jason Williams for today’s guest post!.. Let’s be honest, there are quite literally hundreds of wedding venues in Hampshire. Personally, I think Hampshire is one of the best places in the UK for weddings. We’re blessed with beaches, forests, urban venues, and everything in between. It can be a little bewildering when trying to find the “perfect” venue when what defines perfect for one would be an idea of hell for someone else. Therefore, to come up with a definitive list of “the best” is impossible. What I’ve tried to do here is to…

Glam Rock Shoot at Southend Barns

February 18, 2020 | Barn Wedding, Creative Styling, Styled bridal shoot, Styling, Sussex Wedding, Wedding Venue, West Sussex Wedding

Today we hand over to stylists To Have & To Hire and venue, Southend Barns, to tell us all about this bold, edgy styled shoot… What else is one to do when wanting to add a little sparkle and spice to their wedding? Why Glam Rock, of course. Glam Rock is a style of rock music that started in the United Kingdom in the early 70s. Glam Rock musicians often adorned – what was classified then as ‘outrageous’ outfits, hairstyles, and makeup. Some remnants that may pop to mind are platform shoes and glitter. For this styled shoot we wanted…

Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside…

January 29, 2020 | Sussex Wedding, Wedding Fair, Wedding Venue

Goodness me, what a busy few days I’ve had! Saturday was spent doing last minute prep for Sunday’s wedding fair at The Worthing Dome; buying donuts, printing stuff, packing the car, fiddling about with pegboard signage etc! The next day my eyes pinged open at 5.45am, 15 minutes before my alarm, and it was all systems go to get myself in gear and over to Worthing for set up. And what a lovely day we had! It was the fourth fair we’ve hosted at the venue and it was officially our busiest yet. We love working with the guys at…
