Whilst it hardly seems possible, it is that time of the year again when we start to see glimpses of the beautiful new bridal collections for NEXT year! And although when it comes to Bridal designers, I definitely have my favourites – the likes of Claire Pettibone and Jenny Packham, whose names appear time and time again on Chic…

If I have neglected one thing on Chic Vintage Brides, it is the all important tablescape – and yet I remember all too well how difficult I found it deciding on the style, size, vessel and flowers for our NYE wedding back in 2010. And so I have decided to put this wrong right with…
