Register for Wedding Gifts that Don’t Suck with Wedding Republic

Kat

July 25, 2012

The whole wedding gift registry thing can be a bit of a baptism of fire. On one hand you don't really need yet another toaster but on the other it's often really awkward to have the "actually we'd just really rather have cash" conversation. Back in the old days (when I got married ha!) pretty much the only option for couples was to register with a department store or have that awkward cash convo. We opted for the former and although we got some great stuff (Vera Wang crockery that we still can't afford... a Dyson vacuum... fancy bedding!) it would have been nice to have had more choice you know? John Lewis stocks some great stuff but it's hardly up there in the cool stakes.

The Five-Year Engagement Save The Date Sweepstakes – WIN $1000 of Amazon Vouchers!

Kat

April 9, 2012

Whenever I blog a wedding, I always ask the couples about their engagement story. I don't always include them in the final posts, but it really helps me get to know the couple and what makes them tick - how they got together, how long they were engaged and how they got from 'will you?' to 'I do'. In fact some of my favourite wedding stories have been those with interesting engagement tales. One of my besties, who was married just last month, was only engaged 3 months (in fact her now-husband did a lot of the planning before he even popped the question!) but at the other end of the scale, Emma & Pete were engaged for 3 years before their surprise wedding last year!

Dresses for Real Women! WIN the Dress of Your Choice from Shabby Apple

Kat

April 1, 2012

The British high street is fabulous. In fact on returning from my recent gaunts in The States I was even more convinced of the fact that we have one of the best in the world. However there is something I need to get off my chest. Is there a particular reason that even the most body-conscious stores only seem to stock dresses that are way above the knee/way below a reasonable neckline and cut seriously tight? Is it too much to ask for a shop that stocks dresses to fit, you know, women that aren't size 8 teenagers? I'm only 27 for goodness sake, I don't think I'm ready to shop in Marks & Spencer just yet.

March 18, 2012

If you're anything like me you'll be putting a lot of thought into your wedding day footwear, so I thought I'd give you a helping hand by introducing you to the fabulous world of Zalando. Stocking thousands of items including clothes, beauty products and (what seems like) a gazillion pairs of shoes, if you don't find something you love here there's probably no hope for you. Their website currently stocks over 600 brands including Melissa, Iron Fist, Blowfish, Converse, New Rock, T.U.K and Jeffrey Campbell - in fact over 40,000 products in total! I certainly found something I loved...well a number of things actually. I've been obsessing over pretty pastel shades of late (perfect for Spring/Summer, which is just around the corner - hurrah!) so I thought I'd share some of my favourite soft hued shoes from their latest collection. Pastels aren't just for the classic princess bride you know, all of these shoes give pastels a Rock n Roll edge!

Under the Spotlight: Clickclickbang Photography

Kat

March 13, 2012

Hi Donna! Can you tell us who you are and what you do? I'm Donna, a chubby pink-haired tattooed metallier from up the North of England. I'm married to a gorgeous Irishman and have 2 kids and a fur baby Pug by the name of Bob. I own and run Clickclickbang Photography. I started taking pictures when my (now 11 year old) daughter was born-mainly because I felt creative but I can’t even draw a circle round a penny, so taking photos was the next best thing. I floated about, learning the technicalities as I went, and it grew and grew into this! I've been shooting part-time professionally for the past 3 years (after the birth of my 3 year old son forced me to quit being a self-employed mortgage advisor!) and have been lucky enough to let my business grow naturally, by word of mouth. However, going full time this year is a huge step, and I'm so excited!

Under the Spotlight: Gracie May Photography

Kat

February 28, 2012

With a business named after her own daughter, I'm delighted to introduce you to the work of Gracie May Photography today. Elizabeth is an American living in Hampshire who describes her work as a 'fusion'- fly on the wall journalistic style mixed with a bit of glamour. "I do things differently from the traditional wedding photographer," she told me. "I'm American and have lived here in the UK for 5 years. I have a fusion style. I cover the day like a fly on the wall in a journalistic/storytelling style, and then also throw in a splash of glamor with the private portraits. I am in love with the Beloved concept and like bring the idea into the mix on my shoots so we're not just taking pictures, but we're also making memories and capturing real, true and spontaneous emotions."
