    This can be narrowed by if you start to search regionally and one good facility to do this is the  Guides for Brides website.  Quick & easy to use this site can help you through the maze of informtion. Simply search through the online directory by selecting the topic you are researching, cakes etc, and then the region you are in, Hereford, and local suppliers appear.
    Available as an app for your iphone you can use this facility when out and about shopping for bridesmaids dresses or other finishing touches. This app was designed especially for bridal couple marrying in the UK with 60,000 wedding businesses listed.  And it’s always good news to learn that this useful little tool is FREE.

Bargin for £1.79 And I am happy to say the men don’t get overlooked here with the iGroom app with info on outfits and useful information about the various male roles and what is involved ‘on the day’

    It will be all white on the night

    Posted by No Comments

    I was so amazed by how much I loved the look of Carriage Hall last week when we dressed the room for Laura and Gary’s wedding with white wedding chair covers and silver sashes. I usually love colour and lots of it, but I felt the need to search out some inspirational images to reflect the simplicity of a monochrome colour scheme with shades and tones of whites and silvers.

    You can achieve lots of textural interest by playing around with the surface sheen of different elements, the most obvious one is matt and shine contrasts. Pearlescent and patina surfaces can add luxury to a very simple yet sophisticated colour palette. Consider the texture and volume you choose for your floral arrangements, your wedding cake can be elegant and refined with little detail or dramatic in terms of how 3 dimensional it is decorated. Lots to play around with when just using a ‘white’ colour theme. Enjoy.

    What no chair covers?

    Posted by No Comments

    OK so chair covers are not for everyone, whether that be budget constraints, chairs with arms or you think the chairs at your venue do not need covering, whatever the reason – and it better be a good one – if you’re choosing not to have chair covers on your big day, take a look at these inspirational shots of chairs (albeit uncovered) making a statement all of their own.

    Glamorous, opulent silver and black chairs with show off pink table linen

    Fabulously stripey chairs in bold green and white – perfect if your a Yeovil Town supporter – not so good if your colour scheme is pink or purple!!

    Delicate white rattan chairs with ornamental trim decorated with hot pink flower and ribbon.

    Decorative iron chairs with white padded cushions

    A mix n match collection of chairs, very french!!

    And amazing vibrant turquoise blue chairs, a bit of a show stopper – I love these.

    And I could possibly excuse this bridal couple for not covering these magnificent chairs  because of their elaborate design, beautiful carving and funky fabrics. What no chair covers here…go on I’ll let you off.
