Looking After Yourself from the Inside Out with Xtend Life

Kat

September 16, 2015

That old cliché that beauty comes from within isn't just referring to your sparkling personality. If you want to look great on the outside, then you really do have to focus on what's going on inside your body too. You can't expect to have amazing glowing skin, flowing healthy locks and a twinkle in your eye if you're drinking booze like its going out of fashion and eating junk food all day. If only life wasn't so cruel!

I hope you've all had a fabulous week. Have you managed to nab yourself a copy of Rock n Roll Bride magazine yet? It's been SO EXCITING seeing all your posts on Instagram, it makes me so incredibly happy, I can't even tell you. As you read this I'll be boarding my flight to San Francisco where I'm heading for the penultimate Blogcademy worksho this weekend. I'm then off to New York for the last ever class (sob!) but not before stopping off in Orlando for a celebratory blow out at Disneyworld! I've never been and I'm super, duper excited. Has anyone got any tips for me? I've heard it's as big as some American cities and my brain just can't comprehend that scale!

Tams & Richie were married in County Wicklow, Ireland, in March. Their day was both glamorous and laid back, with a fun-filled festival theme. "We had been bashing our heads against a wall trying to think of a 'theme' for ages, and we landed with Old Hollywood Glamour", began Tams. "I was doing all of the invitations, props, design, look and feel myself, and I began to get really uncomfortable with the whole Hollywood theme and when people started referencing The Great Gatsby, it really didn't settle well. It’s a beautiful, stylised theme and I envy anyone who can pull it off, but it just wasn't us."

Kat and Matt wanted anything but a traditional wedding. They started the day by having their ceremony at Old Wardour Castle in Salisbury.

Nicole and Steve were married at Stage AE, a concert venue in downtown Pittsburgh. Getting married at a venue as iconic as this obviously had a huge influence on the theme of the wedding! "Music has always been a big part of our relationship", said the bride. "We wanted our family and friends to share in that important aspect of our life together, which is why we chose Stage AE. We faced many objections and difficulties with such an unconventional wedding venue, but we knew what we wanted and were determined to make it happen."
