Should you have a Wedding registry?

18th June 2015

Hello!

How are you all? I hope you’re enjoying this lovely weather?

I’ve been looking at recent trends and it seems that over the last couple of years there has been a growing trend to move away from the traditional wedding gift registry, couples no longer scour the John Lewis website for things they may or may not need. Only to then have to squeeze them into their house, dreams of becoming the next culinary master with fantastical appliances, which you optimistically added to your list, fading into the dust covered abyss of a corner cupboard…

BBC Radio Wiltshire Wedding Gift Discussion

13th August 2014

Hello, hello!

How are you all and what have you been up too?

Last week was definitely press week for me, and this was my third feature! I was in the recent issue of Perfect Wedding Magazine (just waiting for my copy) giving a top tip on how to let your bridesmaid know you want her as your bridesmaid! I was also on the incredible Style Me Pretty with one of my recent weddings! So not a bad week, because I was also on the radio!

Wedding Gifts – Don’t Leave Your Guests Guessing

14th January 2014

Yo yo my lovely people.

It’s really weird leaving your normal way of life behind; what I’m trying to say is that I’m currently up North in Preston and it’s ruined my routine!! I’ve been up here since Monday, not counting my weekend in Liverpool with the AMAZING bestie!! Maybe it’s because I miss the boy, do any of you feel like this when you leave you’re routine?

Anyway, I know what you’re thinking; he’s rambling again!!

Today’s post is a lovely one, all about wedding gifts, and giving you some top tips on what you should do and what to ask for!!

MO Loves – Gallery Sales

21st March 2013

Well hello there! How are thee all today?

I’m extremely excited about this MO Loves post as it’s something a little different but still falls under weddings (of course).

It’s all about Gallery Sales, suppliers of art to the trade and the general public. However they have started something extremely exciting for a present to give to wedding couples.

I don’t know if you know, but I love art (you do now). I love the story of the piece, gazing into it and discovering what’s beneath. I could honestly look at a painting for hours sometimes, it relaxes and encourages me.

Well that was a bit of a ramble.

Here is why I love Gallery Sales, and why it’s a great innovation for weddings.

We are a very successful online gallery providing a niche service for wedding guests. We have just launched a hand embellished print to suit any wedding day by artist Lesley Nugent.

The Hand Embellished Print will be available on top quality archival Giclee paper which will not fade within 70 years.

This would make an excellent wedding gift.

The personalisation includes:

1) ‘Congratulations to ……’ On the plane with the banner

2) The time of the wedding on the church clock

3) The bride and grooms hair colour

4) Bridesmaids dress colour

5) ‘Welcome to…’ With the name of the town and the couple’s name on the A board outside the pub where the reception is being held in this picture.
