BOLEROS

Very much in vogue is the wedding bolero.  It is more formal than your average shrug. It is not only stunningly stylish, but it presents a great option for brides seeking modest wedding fashion or for weddings held in the cooler months. And the bolero jacket isn't solely reserved for the bride, it's also a great choice for mother of the bride and bridesmaid dresses...

AN ART GALLERY WEDDING PROPOSAL

There are some amazing videos of ridiculously creative and intricately planned wedding proposals out there. Obviously because we work in the wedding industry we have a responsibility to watch them all... at least, that's what we are telling ourselves here in the office? It could also have something to do with the fact that we  might be hopeless romantics but lets not go too far in that direction. So we thought it might be nice (since we've accidentally done the research) if we shared some of the more spectacular videos with you! To kick things off here is George's proposal to Sara

GROOMS CAKES

In the United States, Grooms cakes are often commissioned by either the bride or groom and kept secret from the other until its unveiling at the wedding rehearsal where it may be served as a desert, or presented on the actual wedding day where it is usually (but not always) displayed on a separate table to the wedding cake. The tradition is also popular in the UK, dating back to Victorian times.

Grooms cakes are much less traditional in appearance and often center around sports, music, hunting and fishing, movies (with Star Wars a popular choice), technology, fast food and pets; usually in some way an expression of the grooms personality. What do you think of this tradition? Would you consider having a grooms cake at your wedding rehearsal or on your wedding day?
