We absolutely can’t let a leap year pass by without mentioning leap year proposals – a cute tradition, perhaps a little outdated now the patriarchy is beginning to crumble (who’s with me?!), but still makes for a fun blog post!

If you haven’t a clue what I’m on about, a leap year was traditionally the one day of the year when women could propose. Of course, 1) I’m not sure where that leaves queer couples and 2) it’s not the 1800s any more so ANYONE can propose at ANY TIME!

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
