Perfect Garlands!

There are so many ways to personalise your wedding and decorating your venue is an obvious choice. Fairy lights, candles, flowers are common but I just love garlands. Fabric, paper, I don't mind! You can use them on tables instead of swags, or hung from the ceiling. Make them yourself for that completely personalised touch or have at look at these..


This gorgeous paper bunting is from www.thegreengables.co.uk who supply beautiful bunting in lots of different styles. Plus, they've got up to 50% off selected styles at the minute! 


How about this for something different? www.notonthehighstreet.com is a treasure trove filled with lots of wedding goodies. This flower hanging garland is £45 and just gorgeous! 


Enjoy! 


Much love xx

Well I had to have a blog about this at some point!

You might be surprised to know that more people choose to get married during times of economic depression. With the average wedding costing in excess of £15000 (gulp!) it is always my aim to save couples money. I sometimes get told that there isn't much call for wedding planners because they are expensive. Oooh that makes me mad!


Many people think that a wedding planner is an added expense that they can do without, of course I'm biased but I couldn't disagree more! A wedding planner should save you money. I work with some carefully selected suppliers who are not only experts in their field, but provide good value for money too. I never take kick backs (referral fees) from them, but pass on any discounts straight to the couple. It's the least I can do.


Wedding planners are also full of ideas for ways of saving money and having a planner from the very start ensures that you've got full access to money saving tips and lots of creative ideas! Plus if you've already started planning and your budget is out of control, I can also help reign it back in. 


Drop me a line and see if I can help you get the wedding you've been dreaming about but didn't think you could afford!


Much love xx
