Eco-friendly wedding gifts

Friday, 5 February 2010

More and more people are looking to be as environmentally-friendly in their wedding planning as possible. We fully support this by running as green a company as possible and so we actively look for ways to help couples achieve their aims.

Thank you gifts can prove troublesome but, thanks to some fabulous companies that actively promote their organic products, you can shop safe in the knowledge that you are doing your bit in as many areas of your wedding planning as you can.
Try Daylesford Organic for sumptuous bath and body products and wine. Their Bamford Eucalyptus Bath Oil is delicious!

For a quirky but extremely useful gift that will remind the recipient of you every week, why not look at Abel & Cole's organic vegetable boxes...

Until next time, happy planning

Honeymoons in South Africa - Cape Town's hidden gem scoops awards

Friday, 29 January 2010

We love being able to share suppliers of all kinds with you and it's especially gratifying when they win fabulous awards and we can say, "See, we always knew you were great!"

I am delighted that one of our favourite hotels in the world, yes the world, has just been awarded no less than four prestigious Tripadvisor's Travellers Choice Awards - my personal favourite being for Customer Service. Huge congratulations to Jo, Carol and all the fabulous team at Derwent House in Cape Town, South Africa! There is no doubt that this award is most definitely deserved - if you're looking for somewhere special to honeymoon, you could do no better than to let these wonderful people look after you.

By the way, mine's the sun lounger right next to the pool, and please make sure there are enough breakfast pancakes left for me!

Until next time,

A wedding photographer is for life, not just for weddings

Wednesday, 27 January 2010

We've raved about Jill Thorning-Jensen and her fabulous wedding photography before and here we go again!

This time it's not wedding-specific but given that weddings, bumps and babies are often a natural progression - not necessarily in that order! - it seems only right that we let you know of some other ways you can work with the lovely Jill.

Jill loves working with pregnant women to capture the beauty of an incredibly special time and, once that bump turns into a beautiful bouncing baby, she's the lady who will capture the personality of your bundle of joy.

And if you check out her photographer's blog entry from 13th December 2009, you'll see why I know exactly what I'm talking about...

Until next time,
