Super Chilled Swedish & British Backyard Wedding

Kat

November 2, 2017

Nina and Zakk were legally married in Sweden, where the bride is from and the groom works as a tattoo artist, but also wanted to have a celebration in the UK, where the groom grew up. Despite living in Sweden for the last few years Zakk has a lot of family and friends in the UK so having a second celebration on Zakk's parents' property made a lot of sense. The location was a sprawling, beautifully maintained stretch of land that boasts a duck pond, tree house and playground - perfect!

The Life Changing Power of Amazing Eyebrows: Getting Microbladed by Sian Dellar

Kat

November 1, 2017

By now you've probably already heard of, or even considered, having your eyebrows microbladed. A few of my friends have had it done and always raved about it, but I'd honestly never really considered it for myself. I've always been pretty proud of my brows. Thankfully, I managed to swerve the over-plucked trend of the late 90s (due mostly to laziness than anything else!) so I didn't think I really need it done. However when I was invited by Sian Dellar to try it out, I thought it would be a really interesting experiment.

Halloween is just around the corner so I couldn't resist sharing this seriously spooky, actually quite scary, Halloween inspired skeleton shoot. It's not massively bridal but I think that's why I love it! Halloween weddings aren't about conforming to tradition are they!?

Rock n Roll Bride Magazine Issue 17 Now Available for Pre-Order

Kat

October 26, 2017

This issue we have the gorgeous Sharon as our cover babe. I'm not going to lie, as soon as her photographer Sophie Baker submitted the wedding I was secretly hoping there would be a shot in there that would work for the cover. I mean, what other wedding magazine on the planet would have a bride rocking pink space buns on the front!? She could not be a more perfect representation of a Rock n Roll bride and I can't wait to see her beautiful, smiling face on newsstands up and down to country!

Kat

October 25, 2017

You only need to do a quick Google search to realise that personalised gifts are 'the thing' right now, and with good reason. When it comes finding those one-of-a-kind items for your loved ones, there really is nothing more special than creating something that shows that you've thought about them specifically and picked something that they'll really love. But it can be difficult to get it just right. Here's my top tips for creating a memorable and special personalised gift.

There are some people that ooze cool by simply existing and I think Nancy and Boogie fall firmly into that camp! Even their names sound awesome together. They wanted their engagement shoot to be more of a fashion editorial rather than traditionally romantic.

October 15, 2017

Is there any wedding more Rock n Roll Bride than a Vegas elopement and a silver sequin dress? Getting married in December with a £6000 budget, Nic and Loz decided Sin City was the perfect spot for them. The ceremony was held at The Little White Wedding Chapel and afterwards they wandered around Fremont Street, Seven Magic Mountains, the Vegas Sign and Caesars Palace for photos. They ended the night with a 30 inch pizza from Pin Up Pizza which they ate back in their hotel room.

Subtly Halloween Inspired Rooftop Shoot

October 14, 2017

Halloween is just a few weeks away so what could be a more perfect shoot to share today than this one? Inspired by Memphis (where the session took place), Halloween and autumn, the nods to the season are subtle, but effective. I'm not a massive fan of really over the top, themed Halloween shoots so this one is right up my street. In fact if I was having a Halloween wedding this is exactly how I'd style it!

An Authentically Vintage Yorkshire Wedding

It was important to vintage-loving Catriona and Mikey that their wedding was authentically vintage, and didn't just have a vintage 'style'. The bride wore a dress from 1948, they handmade all the decor and served afternoon tea.

A Jewellery Making Party with Tatty Devine!

Kat

October 12, 2017

I have been a massive fan of Tatty Devine ever since I discovered them as a teenager. I dreamed of one day being able to adorn myself daily with all their pretty plastic creations. That love affair has continued well into adulthood and the Tatty pieces I own will forever be some of my ultimate faves. So when the babes at Tatty Devine got in contact to ask if I wanted to visit their Brick Lane store to do a Halloween themed jewellery making workshop it felt like all my Christmasses had come at once.

Rock n Renovation: Transform Your Furniture for Less Than £10

Kat

October 8, 2017

I have a new obsession: Coloured contact paper. Since I've discovered I want to upgrade all of my inexpensive furniture items with it. It's usually less than £10 a roll, easy to find (Amazon has an enormous selection and I've also seen it in B&Q and Wilko) and comes in a myriad of colours and patterns. It's also the easiest thing to do, honestly if I can do it, anyone can!
