Perks of the Job

So I’ve been taking it easy after a super busy week last week. We had a fantastic time at Mellissa and Scott’s beautiful vintage themed wedding and will have some professional photographs to share with you later in the week. In the meantime, I wanted to be a show off…:)…Mellissa is a celebrity hairstylist and as a thank you present she very kindly got me this book (after I admitted I might have a small, unexplainable crush on a certain Mr Ramsay).

How exciting!

Busy Weekend

So its been a busy week at WBZL this week but tomorrow we’re super-dooper excited to be going to Mellissa and Scott’s marquee wedding. We’re crossing our fingers and toes for good weather but know that whatever the weather this wedding is going to be a ball! Will hopefully grab a couple of photographs to show you on Monday (and I just know you’re going to want to see these photos!) but for now I leave you with this beautiful cake that was featured on one of my favourite wedding blog The Bride’s Cafe. I think this cake’s florals are really orignal and Donna from Beautiful Blooms needs to get a gold star!

Beautiful!

Blogosphere

A couple of exciting things happening around the blogosphere yesterday:


1) Wedchicks. We were so excited (and so honored) to be featured over at the super-cool Wedding Chicks. Amy and Jocey are super beautiful and super-talented and it’s so cool to be featured on their blog. Check the post out here and if you don’t already, add Wedding Chicks to your reader.

2) Secondly Hello!Lucky posted on the highs and lows of being a self employed entrepraneur. This post is good it had me clapping and shouting “Amen sister”. I echo all of their points and it was nice to be reminded that other people feel the same in this self-employed-wedding-industry-boat too!

Design Concept: Blackcurrant Purple and Soft Green

purplegreen

I imagine this type of wedding happening in the winter months, somewhere down to earth (perhaps a farm) and excited guests leaving footprints across frosty lawns. I’d love to see simple, rustic foods balanced by delicate (but quirky) calligraphy and floral arrangements with lots of silvery-grey greenery. In the evening I think some kind of traditional music would be perfect (a ceilidh perhaps), for favours I’d give away Welsh love spoons and for late night snacks I’d serve roasted chestnuts and hot chocolate – delicious!

Inspiration for this concept’s colour palette came courtesy of Nordljus, a beautiful food & photography blog I stumbled across. Now a cabbage isn’t normally something I’d want at a wedding (except perhaps on the menu) but I was really inspired by this beautiful photo. If you are in need of some food eye candy or just have a few minutes to spare be sure to stop by Keiko’s fab blog.
