When I’m not writing English Wedding, I’m writing place name cards and table plans! I’m Claire, and I’m a calligrapher. I’m also the editor of English Wedding (and I don’t show my face often on here!) But today I wanted to share some of the lovely wedding stationery and calligraphy I’ve been sending out to grooms and brides this spring.
It doesn’t feel like summer yet… but it must be just around the corner, right?
Seasonal wedding style is so important for sustainable weddings. Tapping into Spring florals for your wedding can create the most incredible atmosphere. I’ve been so inspired by these beautiful images from Niemierko today I simply had to share them alongside ten top tips for styling a stunning Spring wedding!
1. Seasonal florals – always!
During the spring months of March, April and May, florists have access to beautiful British blooms. Lesser known flowers can take centre stage and give your wedding that unique look (and scent!) to make it an unforgettable occasion.
The boho lifestyle has long been associated with free-spiritedness, creativity, and a love for nature. When it comes to weddings, the boho aesthetic is all about embracing these values and incorporating them into every little detail. From your dress and venue decor, to the finer details such as your floral arrangements, wedding favours and even your wedding stationery, boho weddings are filled with romantic, eclectic, and whimsical details.
Nine UK wedding venues have made a statement by providing designer alcohol free cocktails to delight wedding guests! According to their survey, a quarter of wedding guests no longer drink alcohol, but the majority of venues aren’t providing exciting or even tasty options for non-drinkers. We think that’s a shame – and we’d love to see more venues get on board with this trend!
- 2,000 people were surveyed
- half had been to a wedding where they didn’t drink
- 81% said there weren’t enough alcohol free options
- over half said the only alternative to alcohol was water
