little frog

This one is a bit of a personal favourite. These are ranunculus flower bouquets. They come in a wonderful array of colours, yellow, white, red, pink, orange and copper and are available in winter and spring. They are from the buttercup family, and I think these are a beautiful alternative to peonies or roses. Oh and their name derives from the Latin meaning 'Little Frog'. Cute.

Here's some more amazing wedding photography (sorry, again it is from the USA!) Braedon Photography shot Seth and Dionna with real laid-back chic. Her dress looks vintage and his style has that thown-together look that make the whole thing just so cool. The photos truly reflect this couples individual style and make the most of a spectacular location. Now how much do you want to be that couple?

sugar and spice

The best wedding favours that I have enjoyed have been sweet-related. Maybe that's because I have a very sweet tooth, and if your guests do too, then these are such a great idea! Mini jars full of retro penny sweets, and if you buy over 50, they will personalise the text on the lid for you too. Or maybe, just maybe, you'll get distracted (like I did) and end up ordering bags and bags of pint pots and fish and chips. Remember those? Yum Yum.

Well as I was mentioning earlier about metallics, these go oh-so-perfectly with such a theme. You could hang one of these amazing looking pinata's from the ceiling of a doorway, have yourselves or your guests bash it, and then a spray of confetti will fall. How good for photos? Also good if you needed to vent any anger (though one would sincerely hope not!)

minty magic

Bit of a random one this, but I just had to spread the word about this little bottle of magic. Origins Piece of Mind is a stress-relieving formula that you just dab onto your temples and neck when everything gets a bit much. So if you're getting stressed in the run up to the wedding, or need a bit of calming on the day, this minty magic is a handbag essential.

i feel pretty

Sticking with the theme of bridesmaids dresses, here are some more Dessy Lela Rose styles that I think are really striking for bridesmaids. For anyone who knows me, I'm a huge monochrome fan. The lace bodice and black skirt is one of my favourites yet. And the chiffon number with rosette detail is so pretty. Both are available in a variety of colours.

silver gem

I think this pewter Dessy bridesmad dress shows off the metallic look really well. Chic, modern and very grown-up. A style and colour that I think most bridesmaids would suit.
