Chris and Kimberley wanted an unconventional and small wedding in the city where they met: Belfast. "We knew we didn't want a religious service or a big wedding", began the bride. "We didn't want to spend our wedding day talking to people we didn't know or didn't want to! We had 38 guests, which was perfect."Read more...

They say that first impressions count, and no more-so is this apparent than online. While in person, we might put someone's slightly chaotic nature down to being nervous, or actually find it quite charming and endearing, online we are used to everything being a bit more polished. If your online presence is a mess, people are much less forgiving.Read more...

Brady and Sara both wanted a simple wedding that reflected their own style. They didn't want to spend a huge amount, and their budget was just $2000, but they managed to pull it off. They kept their guest list tiny, and reused a lot of things they already owned.Read more...

It's a snoozy Sunday and I'm teaching in Sydney this weekend. So I thought it might be fun to break from tradition and throw a bit of a wild card of a post up for you today. I randomly found these these questions online, and I thought I'd answer them. For no other reason than my own amusement really. Normal schedule will resume tomorrow, I promise, but for all you nosy parkers out there I hope you enjoy this brief interlude.Read more...

The gorgeous, heavily tattooed Jacinta married Paschal in July in Ireland. "We met through music and going to festivals", wrote the bride. "This is where the inspiration for the cake topper came from as we were known as 'two peas in a pod' because we were so similar. It was more about our mutual love for music at that stage, but soon a fabulous romance blossomed."Read more...

As soon as I saw just one photo of Ina's incredible handmade Moomin Valley (!!) wedding dress, I knew this was a wedding that I HAD to feature. There really are no words! The couple were married in Risør, a small town in the south of Norway. The day took place at the groom's parent's home, a yellow house on the countryside, with a big garden full of fruit trees.Read more...

When organising our Blogcademy party in London this summer, top of my list of things to get right was a killer bar. I mean, it's not a celebration without cocktails is it?! When I discovered Pigs Bladder And Petticoat I knew I'd found the babes for us. Rhubarb and Rosemary Fizzes (rosemary-infused vodka, homemade rhubarb syrup and lemon juice, topped with sparkling water and garnished with a sprig of rosemary), and Pear and Cardamon Twists (gin, homemade pear syrup, lemon juice and crushed cardamon, topped with ginger ale) COME TO MAMA!Read more...

Lyndsay and Joseph went travelled for four months in India and completely fell in love with the country - the sights, the sounds, and even the smells. When they got engaged they initially decided that they wanted to go back there to get married. Although this couldn't happen in the end, it did make picking a theme for their UK wedding a lot easier! Lyndsay explains, "We wanted to get married in India but unfortunately Joseph’s grandma became ill and we realised we would never be able to get her out there. We then decided we would bring India to the Peak District, which is near where we’re from. We wanted to bring everything that we love about India to our wedding, including the relaxed atmosphere, the food and especially the colours."Read more...

Now this, my friends, is what being a Rock n Roll bride is all about. It's not about flowers, or favours or a fancy wedding venue. It's not about what you wear, who your bridesmaids are or what theme you have. Being a Rock n Roll bride is about doing your own thing, marching to your own beat, and saying "I do" in a way that feels right for the two of you. That's exactly what Rob and Edie did which is why I'm so excited to share their wedding with you today.Read more...

Rachel and Steve didn't want to spend a huge amount on their day. They had a £10,000 budget but actually managed to come in way under that! Their biggest savings were the bride's shoes (Primark!), the 'cake' (Krispy Creme doughnuts!) and by doing all the décor themselves.Read more...

Dane and Leslie's ceremony was held in the kitchen of The North Market in Columbus, Ohio. Sounds like a strange place for a ceremony, but it was affordable to hire and they were able to dress it up with their gorgeous DIY backdrop.Read more...

It's that time again. It's the week before I go away on a big Blogcademy trip and I'm trying desperately to write and pre-schedule three week's worth of blog content before I hit the road. Something weird has happened to me this time though. Usually, I chain myself (metaphorically speaking!) to my desk, and bash them out easily. It takes a long time, sure, but I'm a nerd and I usually always get them all done with a few days to spare.Read more...
