Aimee and Adam couldn't have the wedding they originally planned, but not wanting to wait to get married they decided to keep things small and as simple as possible. It was just the two them and only really close family and friends in attendance at their Oklahoma Supreme Court ceremony.Read more...

When people asked you what you wanted to do when you grew up, I'd imagine that not a lot of you said "work in an office", or "stack shelves in retail..." If you were anything like me, you didn't quite know where you would end up, but you knew it was going to be anything but a boring career. Ballerina, artist, journalist and film critic were all on my list at one point or another... What about you?Read more...

With a surname like Wildblood, Dean and Jen's wedding was never going to be boring. In fact they wanted their wedding to be just like them - quirky, stylish, fun and with a hint of vintage. Jen wore a Vivienne Westwood wedding dress and jewellery, and Dean looked dashing in his Reiss suit, Thomas Pink tie and Kurt Geiger shoes.Read more...

I don't know if it's because Spring is finally in the air or because Gareth took it upon himself to do all my dirty washing this week, thus highlighting how completely impossible it is for me to fit all the clothes I own in my wardrobe at the same time... But yesterday I went through all my cupboards and had a good old clear out.Read more...

I've been bleaching my hair on and off since I was 16. I started doing it myself at home, and then progressed to getting it done at a salon every six to eight weeks. Not really knowing any better I was going to a well known chain (one that rhymes with 'phoney and pie'... ahem) for around three years, and unwittingly allowing them to ravage my fuchsia tresses more and more with each visit!Read more...

Marissa and Lauren were married in the gardens of St. Anne's Academy in Victoria, British Columbia. They wanted their wedding to be intimate and frugal, except when it came to their photographs. They knew those had to be incredible so they booked the AMAZING Nordica Photography who flew over from Stockholm to shoot the day. The made the picnic baskets themselves, including almond stuffed figs which were grown, dried and made by Marissa's grandmother in Portugal. The flowers were bought from a local market - Marissa's bouquet cost $3.99! They also made all the décor themselves.Read more...

It's a sad day when such a talented photographer ups sticks from the UK and moves over to sunnier shores... well it is for us anyway, you guys down under are in for a treat! Wedding photographer Linzie Russo is a half Aussie, half Scot babe who was born in Iran and has spent most of her life travelling the world! For the past three years she's called Glasgow home, but has recently made the decision to move back to Sydney in dire need of some nicer weather! To celebrate, she wants to offer one very lucky Rock n Roll Bride reader in Australia completely free wedding photography. Oh my goodness!Read more...

I can hardly believe it, but in less than three short weeks I'll be hopping back on a plane and heading over to the US to kick off the next leg of The Blogcademy's 2014 world tour! I really can not wait to get back on the road and to be teaching again. It's such a thrill to meet so many new people and to be doing it with two of my very best friends.Read more...

Sarah and Adam's wedding was a true reflection of them. They love anime and Star Wars, so that was their starting point! The day was held at Priston Mill, Bath, in December. They wanted their day to be quirky (like them!) but also fun for their guests. They had retro games set up on the balcony of the barn and devised various drinking games, matching their theme, for their guests!Read more...

Nicola and Nick were married on 29th December at Larnach's Castle in Dunedin, New Zealand. It is the only castle in the country and is owned by Nick's family. Angela Jane Photography was there to capture this special day. The wedding had a mad hatter's tea party theme!Read more...

When it came to planning how to style my recent champagne party, I knew it would be the perfect opportunity to flex my creative muscles. Now I'm no expert, in fact I'm darn right rubbish at DIY projects, and I'm certainly not a professional stylist either. But I knew if I just kept things simple and threw glitter at it, it would probably work out in the end.Read more...

Kirsten and Gareth were marred at Wagner Cove in Central Park. They decided to skip the big wedding, choosing to say "I do" while on holiday in the USA. Kirsten's incredible blue dress was from Temperley London. "We met in 2008 at a mutual friend's birthday party and went on our first date to a sushi train a couple of months later", explained Kirsten. "Gareth tried to impress me by eating a packet of wasabi, without knowing about its eye-wateringly spicy effects."Read more...

Although a worry for a lot of brides and grooms, rain on your wedding day isn't the worst thing that can happen. Although you might be a bit damp (and hey, if you're in the UK you're probably quite used to being in a permanent state of saturation) I promise you your wedding will still be wonderful - even if the whole thing is outdoors! Yes, Aaron and Vicky planned for their entire summer wedding to take place on Willow Farm, Vicky's family home.Read more...

Bonding through their mutual love of Disney, it was more than fitting that Brandon and Ashley were inspired by the happiest place on earth for their wedding. These guys went all out! The day was held at Rancho Las Lomas and they had a real life zebra in attendance and a mermaid... no, I'm not kidding!Read more...

Tomorrow is Gareth and my six year wedding anniversary. Instead of writing yet another "Oh I love him so much, he is my rock, without him I am nothing..." blog post (It's true by the way but... well... you know... snoooooze) I thought I'd share six of the most important lessons I've learnt in these six short years.Read more...

When my Mum asked me what I wanted for my birthday this year, there was only one thing on my mind - some rest and relaxation! So, after quickly tearing into my other presents on Monday morning (I was totally spoilt by my friends, I love you guys!) Gareth and I hopped into the car and headed to the tranquil oasis that is the Nirvana Spa, located just outside of Reading.Read more...

This is definitely a wedding I wish I was at. Louisa and Richie sure do know how to throw one hell of a party! The styling for the celebration was really centred around their venue - the basement of Shoreditch Town Hall called The Ditch. An unusual choice maybe (and one with no natural light!) but it fit perfectly with what the couple wanted. Louisa's dress was designed by Catherine Deane. She wore Badgley Mischka and her veil was vintage.Read more...

When Freixenet, the Spanish cava producers, got in touch to ask if I wanted to have a party on them, and share the results on my blog, I nearly fell off my chair. Talk about my dream job! Then they told me they also wanted to include the chance for my readers to win enough cava to keep their wedding rocking well into the wee hours and I almost did a backflip!Read more...

There's nothing that evokes childlike wonder quite like mermaids. I don't think there's any girl who watched The Little Mermaid as a kid and afterwards didn't wanted to be one... So when this shoot, although not strictly wedding inspired, landed in my inbox, I knew I wanted to share it with you. It's pure fantasy but that doesn't make it any less fabulous.Read more...

We all have fears. It's human nature to want to protect yourself from something you perceive to be a threat. Which is why putting yourself out there as a creative is so scary. No matter what we might say, no matter how much bravado we might have, deep down we all want to be accepted and appreciated for what we do. But being afraid is not something to worry about. It's how you react to your fears that is the most important thing.Read more...
