I’ve loved reading this guest article about planning your perfect city wedding – we often feature country houses on our website, but we’ve featured some amazing city weddings on our blog and they really do deserve more attention! Jan’s written this lovely article for us, and makes the very valid point that wedding planning shouldn’t just be seen as a checklist of tasks. It’s when dreams begin to take shape. This is when your ideas start to leap off the page and become reality.

Choosing an outfit for your wedding can be one of the most daunting processes. Brides are kind of expected to go above and beyond to choose the best dress for their special day – and boutiques provide an amazing experience so the dress ‘journey’ is special. However, the wedding media never really talks about the process for men. Many grooms also have a hard time choosing a suit to wear for their weddings, partly because there are so many options to consider – but we have a suggestion. A black tuxedo is a great choice for a groom’s wedding suit. You can never go wrong with a classic tux, especially if your wedding theme is black-tie or you just want an elegant look. Let’s have a look at some key reasons why a black tux is a great choice for a wedding.
Why Shape and Style Matter
A guest article by English Wedding member Bespoke Diamonds
When it comes to engagement rings, the sparkle might catch your eye—but the shape and style are what truly make it yours. Think of your ring like the perfect outfit: tailored to suit your proportions, flatter your features, and express your personality.
Your hands deserve the same consideration. Whether your fingers are long, short, slender or strong, the right diamond cut and band style can enhance your natural shape in all the best ways.
The very name English Wedding makes people think of stately homes and glamorous celebrations, when it really wasn’t the case when we launched 15 years ago (I was thinking more rebellious Kate Moss and Vivienne Westwood, but there you go)! I’ve been lucky to share hundreds of luxury weddings since then, and I’ll admit a fondness for wedding venues with understated elegance and rolling acres of gardens and hills. If you’re dreaming of saying “I do” in one of England’s castles or luxury country house wedding venues, you’re in good company – lots of modern couples are looking for stylish and timeless wedding venues. Picture this: a grand old manor all to yourselves, historic charm, and a beautiful story to tell.
If you’re getting married this summer you might be almost ready to send out your wedding invitations. But when’s the best time to post them? How will you know? What if you’re getting married in Europe? Should you send Save the Dates? Are digital invites OK? And as a UK couple, what else will you need to bear in mind before you post your wedding invitations? Save this post for later if you need to: I’ll answer all of your questions so you know exactly when and how to send your wedding invites.
