I’m not anti-Pinterest.

I’m anti-copy-and-paste weddings.

Somewhere along the way, couples got so overwhelmed with social media inspiration that they stopped asking themselves what they actually LOVE.

We all do it.
Endless folders of flowers, tablescapes, colour schemes and yearly trends, and lots of “that’s nice”.

NICE?

We can do better, surely?

You’re spending thousands on one of the biggest celebrations of your life, and we’re settling for NICE?

I don’t think so!

Here’s a start. Look beyond weddings.

Think about what you love. Think about what excites you, what moves you and what actually sets your soul on fire. What stirs emotion? What experiences light you up.

Because your wedding doesn’t deserve to look and feel average.

It should feel exceptional and like nobody else’s.

What’s one experience you’ve had that you’ll never forget?

I’d love to know.

I admit it

Yes, I am a magpie but I do believe that weddings need to be more than beautiful and shiny.

They need to have depth!

People don’t have the best time simply because the aesthetic of your wedding looks like it’s straight out of the pages of Vogue. Although I’m sure they’ll be impressed.

But a pretty wedding is not enough. What carries a wedding is its soul.

It’s all about the atmosphere, the flow and the guest experience. That’s what stops a wedding from falling flat and your guests being bored.

I think the best weddings are relaxed by day and electric by night.

That’s what needs to be created for you and your guests to have the absolute best time.

It’s how your wedding goes from nice to unforgettable.

Do you agree?

Sorry (not sorry), but your mum’s neighbour does not have an automatic right to attend your wedding.

Neither does your dad’s cousin, your parents’ friends or Sandra who used to babysit you in 2004.

If you WANT them there, fabulous.

If you’re inviting them because they, or someone else, will be offended if you don’t?

Absolutely not.

Weddings are expensive and guest lists are limited, so why on earth are you thinking about spending £200+ feeding someone you wouldn’t even go for a coffee with?

And can we, as a society, stop acting personally wounded when we don’t get an invitation? Or when someone we think should be there doesn’t get invited?

It’s not our wedding. It’s not our choice.

Why are we so entitled when it comes to other people’s wedding guest lists?

Your guest list should be full of people you absolutely love and adore. People who bring you joy and light up your life.

Not people who made the cut because it was easier than dealing with the awkwardness.

Be ruthless.

They’ll get over it eventually.

And it’s their fault for being so presumptuous in the first place 😂

The pressure is unreal.

To keep showing up on Instagram, to keep creating content and to keep giving people a reason to book me.

Instagram is the hub of my business. My marketing relies heavily on it, and content of me working could help turn followers into bookings.

I have a wedding that I’m running in October and I know the family quite well so with my couple’s permission, I hired a content creator to film me behind the scenes at their wedding.

It was a perfect opportunity to show people what I do and the work that goes on behind the scenes but as the weeks passed, I couldn’t shake the feeling that it just didn’t sit right.

On the day would I be wondering whether she’d captured the bits that I wanted? Would I be thinking how do I look, should I do this, what would be best?

I didn’t want any of those thoughts taking up even the smallest bit of my attention.

My couple have spent months planning this day and they’re trusting me to bring it all together.
I want and need to be fully focused on them and whatever they need from me.

So I cancelled the filming.

Yes, giving up valuable footage that could potentially bring me thousands of pounds in bookings felt slightly uncomfortable. At the end of the day I’m running a business to help support my family, pay my bills and live a comfortable life just like everyone else. As much as I love my work it isn’t a hobby.

BUT

I couldn’t ignore my gut.

I absolutely want people to see what I can do but not at my couples expense.

At every wedding I work on, my couple will always have my full attention because that’s what they deserve on the most important day of their life.

Newsflash!

Your wedding doesn’t need to be dripping in gold to look expensive.

If you’re drawn to understated luxury, adding more sparkle, more gold and every trend you’ve saved isn’t necessarily going to get you the wedding aesthetic of your dreams.

You want impact without excess. Think about designers such as Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood.

What I’m drawn to is their dramatic shapes, sharp tailoring and structure. Compare that with the exuberance of Versace or the playfulness of Moschino, and you can see how different luxury can look.

Luxury doesn’t have to look one particular way. But you do need to know which direction you’re taking.

For a wedding that feels luxurious without being loud, think sculptural florals, beautiful fabrics and one striking focal point. Gold can absolutely have its place, but it doesn’t need to cover every surface.

Understated doesn’t mean timid. You can be bold, create impact and give your guests plenty to take in without cramming the room with competing details.

The luxury is in how it all comes together.

Be honest with yourself: are you choosing it because it fits the overall look and feel of your wedding, or because Instagram convinced you that you need it?

28/09/2026

Are you a 2027/28 bride wanting that understated luxury wedding vibe, so you’re buying everything that’s gold and sparkly and bringing in every trend you see on Instagram?

I beg you stop!

You’re going to end up with something messy, mismatched and tacky.

The complete opposite of what you actually want.

Gold and sparkle is beautiful when it’s reined in. Think touches here and there rather than everywhere you look.
You don’t want your wedding looking like the inside of a genies lamp and you absolutely don’t need every trend you’ve saved on Instagram.
Pick one or two if they genuinely work with the overall look and feel of your wedding. If they don’t? Leave them there.

Sometimes less really is more.

It’s not about throwing more at your wedding to make it look luxurious it’s about knowing what to use, where to use it and when to stop.

If you want your wedding to turn heads for the right reasons, we should talk. Slide into my DMs with the word luxury and let’s talk wedding design.

To all my time poor engaged couples juggling work, family and a social life… I know what you’re thinking.

How on earth are you supposed to find the time to plan the wedding of the year?

A wedding that looks elegantly bold, feels completely immersive and has your guests talking about it for years afterwards.

It’s hard enough juggling life as it is without adding another full time job to the list.

Do you really have another 528 hours spare to spend researching suppliers, comparing quotes, managing budgets, answering emails, working out logistics and building timelines?

Probably not and that’s where I come in.

Yes, I’m here to make sure your wedding is incredible but I’m also here to give you something you can’t buy back.

Your time.

And that might just be the most valuable thing I give you.

23/09/2026

Looking for a relaxed wedding?

You just can’t leave it up to chance unless you want a disaster to hit.

Everyone wants their wedding to feel relaxed but this doesn’t mean leaving huge gaps in the timeline, being loose with timings and thinking everything will just fall into place on the day.

Because it won’t! I promise!

Relaxed or not, you are still organising an event.

Guests start wondering what’s happening next, suppliers need answers, timings slip and suddenly everything is spiralling and you’re being pulled into things you really shouldn’t be dealing with on your wedding day.

The weddings that feel the most relaxed are actually planned within an inch of their lives behind the scenes.

Every transition has been thought about and suppliers know exactly where they need to be and when.

Guests naturally know what’s happening next and if something does go wrong, someone else is already dealing with it and you probably don’t even know anything about it.

You don’t need to see the planning you just need to live the day.

That’s what a genuinely relaxed wedding day looks like.

Beautiful isn’t enough.

If you want a wedding people actually remember, you have to think beyond how it looks.

Of course you want it to be striking, but what about the atmosphere? How does the day actually flow? Are your guests having the best time, or are they standing around wondering what’s happening next?

You want your loved ones to feel completely part of the day, not like they’re just there watching it happen.

You don’t want the energy dropping halfway through the day and you definitely don’t want huge gaps where everything starts to feel flat.

Your wedding should feel relaxed but not slow and it should feel exciting but never rushed.

That’s the difference between a wedding that simply looks good and one people are still talking about years later.

If you’re planning your wedding, this is the first thing you need to decide and it’s not how do you want it to look. It’s how do you want it to feel.
