Romantic Garden Wedding Dresses

Exploring the possibilities of having a wedding outfit which isn't formal and doesn't really follow the norms. It's important to me that I am really comfortable and beautiful on the day. These have all been planned with flats to keep my feet happy. Straps and flowing materials to avoid any ugly bulges and having to readjust myself all day. And they could be high street store prices which is fantastic because it keeps within my budget and doesn't make me feel guilty for spending astronomical amounts of money on a dress I will only wear for a day. They are feminine, useful and beautiful.

DIY: Boutonniere, Hair Adornments and Banners

Festive Shabby Garland - Linen Cotton Silk - Custom Yo-Yo ColorsWinter Wonderland Custom Corsage (or Hairpiece)Winter Wonderland Custom Boutonniere

I LOVE hessian and linen. These are great inspiration for doing your own timeless and everlasting bouquet, hair slides, boutonniere and venue decorations. Reusable venue garlands are a wonderful idea. This would be really easy to add to if you wanted to add some pinks or blues to liven it up. From Milkpod Studio

The Discovery of Ornamented Life


Upon the discovery of HORNE I was delighted to find this range by Ornamented Life as they recycle chipped plates and crockery and make them pretty again. It's beautiful artwork, a fantastic DIY idea and it means you don't have to throw the plate away!

To Monogram or Not To Monogram?










I recently read that to make simple monogram logo for your wedding will save you money and tie the whole thing together but, I think a monogram on anything makes it look rather "lah-di-dah". That's ok if it's what you're looking for but, if it's not, what other options have you got? I'm off to explore.

In the mean time here are a few monogrammed ideas I found. Hope you like.
