Don't worry I haven't booked in for a nose job... I'm talking about giving Rock n Roll Bride a facelift! The blog has had the same logo and branding for over five years now, and with the magazine taking off like it is I felt it was high time for for a spot of TLC. Shauna and I have been going back and forth on some ideas and believe me when I say it is looking utterly incredible! Watch out wedding magazine world, Rock n Roll Bride is coming for ya!

Kelly and Benjamin knew what they wanted for their wedding right from the start. They wanted an informal day with a festival vibe and lots and lots of colour! "The inspiration for our wedding was just 'let’s be ourselves'", Kelly said. "We've been to so many weddings over the years that all feel the same; a lot of people try and have this fancy formal affair when it really doesn't reflect who they are as people."

Rock n Roll Bride on Ireland AM!

Kat

July 26, 2015

On Friday, I woke up in an unfamiliar place to a 5.30am alarm clock. Gareth and I were in Dublin because I'd be invited onto Ireland AM, Ireland's version of This Morning! I had such a lovely time. The hosts, Sinéad and Mark, were so friendly and genuinely interested in hearing all about my blog and magazine, both on-screen and off. After the show Mark and I even chatted about tattoos and cats! Needless to say, this blue haired weirdo fit right in. On air, we discussed alternative weddings and what makes them awesome, wedding trends, my sister's upcoming nuptials and why my own wedding was actually rather traditional!

I was chatting to my newly engaged sister last week who told me there was no way in hell she'd be doing a first dance and that come to think of it, walking down the aisle seemed mortifying and silly too. "But you have to walk in somehow," I replied, "you can't just 'poof!' and appear at the end of the aisle!"
