Kat

November 13, 2020

I'm pretty new to the CBD craze. Earlier this year, while I was going through a particularly difficult period with my mental health, I decided to give it a go after hearing it can help with stress and anxiety. I wasn't quite at a stage where I felt like I wanted to get professional help, and I definitely didn't want to take any medication, but I just felt I needed a little boost and I'd been told that CBD could potentially help.

Ruby and Jamie's woodland wedding was inspired by their venue. They knew they wanted to get married in the woods, and when they found Captain Wood Barn, they knew it was perfect.

The best thing about deciding to elope, is that it opens up so many possibilities of where and how you can do things. For Lisa and Bill, who were married in June, they chose the places that they feel happiest to be married - up on the cliffs in Big Sur overlooking the pacific ocean. They then had their portraits taken in a woodland,

Thirteen years ago this month I registered the website rocknrollbride.blogspot.co.uk so I had somewhere to talk about planning my wedding. The year was 2007 (before Pinterest, Instagram or Facebook groups where a thing) and the way most of us connected with other people online was through closed forums or websites such as LiveJournal and MySpace.

Having a relaxed atmosphere at their February 29th wedding was one of the most important factors for Samantha and Jon. They also wanted to play homage to a couple of their favourite TV shows. Their tables names were F.R.I.E.N.D.S themed, each table named after one of the characters with a quote from the show to make people laugh and Samantha walked down the aisle to a slowed down cover of the theme. The groomsmen's attire was inspired by Peaky Blinders, complete with flat caps!

When the bride works in events, you KNOW her wedding is going to be flawlessly put together. Akilah was adamant she didn't want a themed day ("even the word theme perturbs us a little!" she said) but she and Richard were naturally drawn to things that worked together, which was only solidified when they found their venue, The Barn at Bury Court in Farnham. They incorporated elements like candle and lots of flowers which created a low key, yet perfectly cohesive day,
