Have you ever been to see a band at a festival and been a bit underwhelmed by the experience? A lot of this can be because nobody helped them properly translate their sound and visuals for an outdoor gig. Some experiences work better inside, but that doesn’t have to be the case for your wedding ceremony!Read more...

Weddings are becoming more and more personalised, with no two weddings you go to quite the same. But how can you bring this personalisation to the ceremony? With a celebrant wedding, the possibilities are endless and the more creative you and your celebrant are, the more unique and personal your ritual might be. There are some more traditional rituals like handfasting or union candle rituals, which can be very beautiful and meaningful. But why not try something a little more offbeat - here are five ideas to get you started!Read more...

Wedding day jitters aren’t to be taken lightly. The guilt, the self-doubt, the midnight anxiety. You know what? Let’s just say it how it is, you’re going through some serious shit here.

You've probably heard the saying “diamonds are a girl’s best friend”, but as a jeweller, I have to disagree, and so do a growing number of jewellery lovers. The traditional solitaire diamond is falling out of fancy with many modern couples. This is especially true among those who value a more ethical approach or who don’t feel the need to play by others’ rules.Read more...

In the world of weddings, where love is celebrated, a dark shadow lurks behind the veil. Bisexual erasure is prevalent but so often overlooked. At first glance, the wedding industry is getting so much better at being inclusive and diverse. Magazines, blogs and social media accounts show many love stories and cater to many preferences. However, bisexuals seem to be one of the groups who are so often forgotten or even purposefully excluded.Read more...

For a few fun years in my 20s, my singing career led me to singing at a whole bunch of weddings… and I ab-so-lute-ly LOVED it. After some time singing for other peoples’ bands, I decided I wanted to create my own. Funnily enough, that’s how I first met Kat, exhibiting at a wedding fair in 2015…Read more...

How much is it? What, thousand?! OK, what’s the next option down? That’s the cheapest?! Fuck me, I guess we’ll have to rethink the live band. How much did your parents say they’re giving us again? What, hundred?! Shit. Well apparently we have to get them, the planner said they bring the whole theme together. I don’t know what theme, she just said ‘theme’. Maybe we can lose the cocktail truck…”Read more...
