Posted on December 21, 2012 by Claire Gould

Hasn’t Fri­day taken a long time to come around this week?! I’m look­ing for­ward to the week­end — and I hope you have a lovely one. Whether you’re shop­ping or see­ing fam­ily or friends, have a great week­end. To keep you enter­tained in the mean­time, here are my best wed­ding blog posts from the last cou­ple of weeks — with thanks to Wed­Weekly for a cou­ple of ideas here too!

The best wedding blogs — 2 weeks’ worth!

Posted on October 26, 2012 by Claire Gould

Oops… while I was plan­ning for my wed­ding fair last week I didn’t have time to write up my ‘best wed­ding blogs’ post for the week. And my book­marks folder is ready to pop! I even have some lined up to share with you for next time already… but for now, here are my favourite wed­ding blogs for this week. Enjoy!

The best real wed­ding blogs

  • Love this win­ter won­der­land wed­ding on Lon­don Bride blog! Clemency and Tom — with tons of great details and a really atmos­pheric venue
  • I used baby’s breath (gyp­sophila) to dec­o­rate my stand at the wed­ding fair… and I fell in love with it. Lau­ren & Grant’s wed­ding uses it so beautifully!

A top 10 UK wedding blog — again!

Posted on July 30, 2012 by Claire Gould

Thank you. You lovely, lovely friends out there read­ing, com­ment­ing on and sub­scrib­ing to Eng­lish Wed­ding Blog are why we’ve made it to the top 10 of the top 100 UK wed­ding blogs list — again!

Top UK Wedding Blogs UK wedding blog — again!')">

Eng­lish Wed­ding Blog is the 8th best UK wed­ding blog!

It goes with­out say­ing that if nobody read this, I wouldn’t have made the list! So thank you — I’m truly grate­ful to every­one for read­ing and shar­ing my lit­tle bit of the interweb.

It’s fan­tas­tic to see new wed­ding blogs mak­ing the list, the top 3 of course are firmly entrenched in their posi­tions on high (and it’s well deserved!) — and the lovely Lou from Whim­si­cal Won­der­land Wed­dings is bit­ing at their heels in 4th place. The boys from Stag­gered are still in the top ten, now at 5 (hur­ray for boys!?) and then there are new blog­gers appear­ing too…  Read more…

Wedding Planning or work?

Posted on July 27, 2012 by Claire Gould

Whether you’ve had a glo­ri­ous week full of sun­shine and are itch­ing to go out and play, or have spent the last few days at the driz­zly Cum­brian sea­side like me, I think it’s time to sit back and enjoy a bit of wed­ding good­ness. For­get work — it’s time to catch up with the very best from wed­ding blogs over the last week-and-a-bit!

Happy Fri­day after­noon, every­one! We had a lit­tle break from wed­ding plan­ning or work last week (as my head is all over the place with my house move!) so I assume you worked through the after­noon with­out a break last week. Which means, I think, that your boss should let you have the rest of the after­noon off. I wouldn’t even bother check­ing… just drop your pen, and enjoy some of these gor­geous real wed­dings, and wed­ding blog posts from the last week or two!

Fri­day after­noon, and any­one who’s new to Eng­lish Wed­ding Blog might won­der what this post is about. An intro­duc­tion: on Fri­days at 2pm we all take at least 10 min­utes off what­ever we’re doing, make sure our bosses can’t see the com­puter screens, and surf the inter­web for wed­dingy things. Here are the loveli­est wed­ding blog posts I’ve found online recently — all for you to enjoy.  Read more…

This week’s Wed­ding Plan­ning or Work is ded­i­cated to my new friend Scar­let Blue. Last Fri­day I skived off WPOW entirely, as I was up to my neck in cal­lig­ra­phy… only to find an email on Sat­ur­day from Scar­let (which she’d sent on Fri­day) say­ing how much she enjoyed my weekly blog roundups… Oops!

Today I’m not skiv­ing off — I’ve made you a bumper edi­tion of Wed­ding Plan­ning or Work to enjoy. Happy Fri­day everyone!

I’ve found some bril­liant bits of inter­net for you this week: real wed­dings, DIY projects, dis­cus­sions and — a new bit of Wed­ding plan­ning or work: wed­ding busi­ness stuff. I’m just going to jump in. High­lights today include Alex Beadon’s busi­ness blog­ging advice, and dis­cus­sions on beauty from Anna (Far from the wed­ding crowd).

Enjoy. And have a won­der­ful week­end xx
