When wedding planner Christine married Lenny, she knew exactly what she DIDN'T want. "Our goal was to create something that felt like us and didn't try and keep up with trends", began the bride. "I'm a wedding planner and a bridal shop owner, so I live in Pinterest-land in my profession. Our wedding was different because I learn from my clients what NOT to do and what NOT to worry about. I also didn't try so hard to be 'different'. We just wanted a great celebration."

I had a brainwave while scrolling through my Facebook newsfeed last night. The Rock n Roll Bride page has always been very active. There's a great community of nearly 150,000 people on that page who subscribe to see updates about this blog. However, for me, the real draw of Facebook is not to be mindlessly bombarded with updates about the blogs or businesses we follow, it's a place to connect with our friends... to make new friends... and to share updates about our lives and loves.

Kirsty met Oz when she went to work in his tattoo studio. "We're both tattoo artists and after several months of working together it became apparent that we were meant to be together", she told me. "Two years in, Oz popped the question. We spoke about our big day regularly, and we saved and saved like mad. After 12 months we decided to bite the bullet and book a date and venue. We continued to save and had some generous donations from loved ones to help us on our way."

Baby always wanted a Hello Kitty themed wedding but her fiancé, Simon, wasn't so keen on the idea! Instead she added a few subtle touches (like her adorable bouquet) to their July wedding, while the rest of the styling suited both their tastes. "I think the idea we were going for was mainly rustic but with a few really cute touches, such as Hello Kitty, a candy buffet and animal balloons for the kids", the groom explained. "Baby wanted just a Hello Kitty theme, but I wasn't too chuffed about it, so it ended up as a mix!"

What I lack in DIY skills I certainly make up for in creative friends, so when HP got in touch asking if I'd like to partner with them to showcase their amazing new Sprout computer, I called in the reinforcements! Sophie, Ronnie and I then started brainstorming ideas for some cute greetings cards that we could create for you, although we actually spent most of the time laughing/ cringing at ourselves over all the silly puns we came up with!
