Wedding ideas: black and white

Posted on May 12, 2010 by Claire

Once again inspired by Sunday’s Irish wed­ding sent in by Green­lees Pho­tog­ra­phy, and with thanks yet again to bride Jo’s fan­tas­tic sense of fun — this wed­ding blog post pays homage to Guin­ness. Yes. Well, why not?!

Wedding ideas: inspired by art

Posted on May 6, 2010 by Claire

This last post of the week inspired by Helen and Paul’s fan­tas­tic Shot­tle Hall wed­ding is all about art-inspired wed­ding sta­tionery.

Two of Chris Hanley’s pho­tographs really made me smile, and got me think­ing about how UK brides can use art in their wed­ding themes. The log­i­cal start­ing point is wed­ding invi­ta­tions of course — so here are some of my favourite ideas for you.

These are the pho­tos that inspired this feature:
