August 24, 2016

Rose gold has definitely become the metal of 2016.

I mean, sure, you could order a silver kettle and a set of white dinner plates, but why not have a little fun with it? When The Wedding Shop got in touch to ask if I'd like to curate some of my favourite items from their website, I jumped at the chance to do some fantasy shopping.

A few weeks ago I was invited by wedding dress designer Caroline Arthur to attend her Perfect Fit Event at the picturesque Gate Street Barn near Guildford. The day was put on, not just to promote the amazing suppliers involved, but to share information to help educate brides about how to get the right fit for their wedding dress. This is something Caroline is super passionate about so it was so inspiring to see her in action. I learnt so much too!
