It’s not everyday that you get a first look involving a unicorn mask, but for Stuart and Angelica that was one of their must-haves – and quite rightly so. Their July wedding, described as “casual unicorns” with a dash of Scottishness, was organised in three months, and mostly long distance across the Atlantic too. Despite that, it also features a secret Alice in Wonderland twist and some pretty incredible gothic architecture too.

I must preface this feature by letting you all know that this is an explicit photo session, and one that not everyone will be comfortable looking at. But in the spirit of Rock n Roll Bride being about self-expression and doing whatever is right for you and your partner, I really wanted to share it! There are a lot of NSFW photos featured below and while I personally think they're really tastefully done and the story behind them is one worth sharing, I understand that not everyone will agree.

Sarah and Ant were married on the Isle of Wight with just 14 guests - ten adults and their four young children. They were determined to do things on their own terms, to not spent an enormous amount and to make every element truly special.

Janelle and Chad's Palm Springs wedding was held at the mid-century style Parker hotel. The location really set the tone and decor for the day, but their theme was really about them, their relationship and their mutual love of gaming.

Stefanie and Loren picked 22nd to 24th September as the weekend to celebrate their wedding, chosen to coincide with the autumn equinox. The bride being an alternative wedding planner herself meant she handled everything. She also put together all the flowers (with her team of helpers!) and the groom created the invitations.

Love it or hate it, Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and being a blog dedicated to all things L.O.V.E and all, I couldn't just let it slide on by. If red roses and chocolates aren't your bag then I think you'll find something your significant other (or ahem - you!) will like from this list. Feel free to leave your laptop not-so-subtly in their eye line (Gareth are you reading this?)

Through The Woods We Ran

February 8, 2018

So we all know a wedding day is, for the most part, all about the couple getting married. But when a bride and groom put just as much thought and effort into their guests having as much fun as they do, well you know you're into a winner. I also can't go on any further without calling out probably THE most amazing bridesmaid outfits I've ever seen! Tulle skirts, oversized sequin playsuits, HELL YES, I am so on board!

Lauren, originally from the Caymen Islands, married Colin, from Huddersfield, in September. They met in Leeds when the bride was studying for her masters and the groom was working in IT. After being together for two and a half years Lauren was offered a job back home in Cayman so Colin moved with her and they got engaged!

I am in full-on 'totally psyched for the year ahead' mode right now. I've got a bunch of new projects in the works and I'm feeling all together really positive about 2018 and what it might hold. A lot in part to all your incredibly kind comments on last week's post about the future of Rock n Roll Bride. You really have no idea how happy reading all those replies made me.

They met at work, and boned over the bride's ‘mod roundel’ tattoo. Jonny asked Grace if it meant she was the queen of mods, and they struck up a friendship. A few months later they got together properly at the work Christmas party thanks to some good old fashioned Dutch courage! They were married in October in Darlington.

Having an Alternative Wedding is now a Trend (Apparently)

Kat

Northern Grace

January 31, 2018

Yesterday I received an 'urgent' phone call from a journalist at The Sun newspaper asking if I could help her put together a piece on the "alternative wedding trend" that "a lot of brides seem to be doing these days." This was in response to the breaking news that Meghan Markle has decided to do a speech at her wedding to Prince Harry this summer. I internally chuckled as she went though a few different aspects of a wedding that they wondered if people were now doing differently (bride not walking down the aisle with her father, a white dress not being the only option, no fancy three-tiered wedding cake, no sit down meal etc) and eye rolled extra hard into my cup of English Breakfast when she asked if I cared to comment.

Anneka and Stephen wanted a vintage inspired wedding after the bride picked out her stunning 1930s dress. They used gold accents everywhere, also inspired by what the bride wore. They also spent just £4000, wanting to prove with their wedding that you don't have to spend a fortune to say "I do!"

It feels like actual forever since I've sat down and had a proper chat with you guys on my blog. Of course I keep up to date with you all on Instagram and Facebook (particularly in our ever-growing private Facebook group, we now have nearly 13,000 members!) but this space has been a little neglected on the old personal content side.

Oh my, have we got one of the most spectacularly cool weddings for you today! Samantha and Nathan, who were marred in May, had one of those celebrations that you're really going to wish you were invited too. From all the incredibly thoughtful details, to the bride's killer personal style - yep this wedding just screams awesome from every side. The best part is they spend less than £5000 - including their honeymoon to the Dominican Republic!

As lovers of all things vintage and regular attendees of vintage themed events, there was only one theme Helen and Aaron wanted for their July wedding. They are also pretty darn obsessed with afternoon tea which made choosing their catering options easy. They didn't hire in a company to do it though, they made it all themselves!

This fairytale wedding has to have some of the sweetest Disney inspired touches we've ever seen. From the centrepieces (each table was named after a movie and the props on the tables matched), the Disney inspired temporary tattoo and wall hanging favours and the subtle Disney inspired cake (those colours are just perfect!) complete with a with a glitter ‘to infinity and beyond’ topper.
