Today’s wedding is so cute, it is impossible to be anything other than charmed by every detail when you see it. Retro and colourful, with the punchy green of the woodland ceremony setting and an abundance of vibrant native florals, followed by an intimate restaurant reception, it is just delightful! So have your pinning finger ready as…

If you’re looking for an unconventional wedding dress, something chic yet flirty and fun; a wedding dress that is informal but still oozes glamour; a dress that you can really let your hair down in, or that perhaps Grace Kelly or Audrey Hepburn would have sashayed down the aisle in; then look no further! Nothing says vintage quite like…

I don’t know about where you are, but it has been a decidedly dark and damp day here in Hawkes Bay (the first proper sign that Autumn is surely on its way) Luckily I have just the thing to kiss those wet weather blues goodbye! Full of vintage furniture, gorgeous flowers, fabulous bridal fashion (including…

Much as I can’t wait to see the new wedding dress collections for 2015 (NY Bridal Fashion Week isn’t far off and the glimpses of the latest designs never fail to make my knees a little weak!) there is nothing quite like the glamour, elegance and history of a vintage wedding dress. I don’t think there is…

Hello lovelies! It’s Friday (I can almost hear the cheer from here!), the end of another week and time for another Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons. Over the last month or so, we have been celebrating the imminent arrival of my favourite season, Autumn, by looking at the most beautiful bridesmaids, bouquets, colour palettes, and cakes for a fall wedding. Honestly, I…

It is such an exciting time of year for wedding bloggers and brides-to-be alike,  as we start to get glimpses of the latest bridal collections for 2015. I always wait with bated breath for the latest offering from Jenny Packham, Claire Pettibone, Vera Wang, Monique Lhuillier….I could go on, but you know what I mean. Those…

Hello lovelies, another Monday is upon us. But despair not, because do I have the loveliest inspiration board for you today! Especially for all those of you coming to the end of Winter, I have mixed shades of blue with the greyed jade to create a bright and pretty palette just perfect for a Spring wedding……..

Good morning! I hope everyone enjoyed a fabulous weekend and is ready for the start of a new week. I was strangely eager when my alarm went off this Monday morning, thanks to today’s post. I LOVE wedding dresses! Now, that may be considered something of an obvious pre-requisite for a wedding blogger, but I…

How could anyone not adore the sight of Keira Knightley skipping to the Town Hall hand in hand with her beau looking oh so happy, not to mention chic and cute in her short tulle wedding dress and flower crown….. There is going to be many a disappointed bride-to-be hoping to buy the new Mrs…

Back home in the UK, the wedding blog that introduced me to the world of wedding blogs also introduced me to the incredible Joanne Fleming (the lady who designed this fabulously feathery coat for the gorgeous Love Audrey) with whom I was instantly enamoured – with her love of the opulent and dramatic, as well as her…
