What I lack in DIY skills I certainly make up for in creative friends, so when HP got in touch asking if I'd like to partner with them to showcase their amazing new Sprout computer, I called in the reinforcements! Sophie, Ronnie and I then started brainstorming ideas for some cute greetings cards that we could create for you, although we actually spent most of the time laughing/ cringing at ourselves over all the silly puns we came up with!

Have you decided what welcome drinks you're going to serve at your wedding yet? Something lovely and fizzy or maybe you're opting for a signature cocktail? Well, how about doing both?! A few weeks ago my friends Ronnie and Sophie came over, so I thought we'd have some fun and throw a mini cocktail party. We used Freixenet Spanish Cava which is not only inexpensive, but totally delicious and dangerously easy to drink!

I've known wedding planner Kirstin Halstead for quite a few years. We first met at a very fancy industry event, where we both felt like fish out of water and spent nearly the entire night side by side trying not to make eye contact with anybody! I liked her the moment we met. She's warm, she's friendly and she has a wicked sense of humour. In fact some of you will know Kirstin too. I featured her own adorable Nashville elopement just a few months ago!

If there's one thing I love more than anything about running this blog and my magazine, it's that I have the opportunity to share with you some truly amazing and utterly creative wedding suppliers that might not be included in more mainstream publications. Brighton based designer Louise O'Mahony of Oh My Honey falls squarely into that camp. I first discovered her when I featured this amazing snow queen shoot that she not only supplied the dresses for, but modelled in too (that's her with the blue hair!) and I quickly fell in love with her colourful, whimsical, 1950s inspired wedding dresses.

You've heard me say it a thousand times, but your wedding day is probably the fastest moving day of your life. One minute you're nervously slipping on your dress, and the next you're collapsing into your marital bed, exhausted.

If you're reading this it is very likely that you're planning a wedding in the near future. Well, I don't know about you, but when I organised my own big day, one of the most frustrating things was enquiring to tons of wedding suppliers either to not hear back, or to get a message weeks later only to be told they were already booked. "There must be an easier way!" I muttered on many occasions.

Remember when you were a lovestruck teenager, you'd find the boy you liked and do compatibility tests to figure out if you were destined to run off into the sunset together?
