A big thank you...

To all of the couples who came and spoke to me at The Kelmarsh Hall Wedding Experience yesterday, it was lovely to meet you all and hear all about your plans!  It was a great day for Edward & Emma, lots of fantastic feedback about the collection and it was lovely to hear how impressed you all were with the little extras that I add to my designs!  Looking forward to working with some of you in the near future...


Thanks also to the lovely ladies at Kelmarsh Hall who put on a great 'experience' for the couples, Kelmarsh Hall is a beautiful venue and it looks even more stunning when the sunshine is out like it was yesterday.

I can't write my post without mentioning Paul Martyn, his amazing vocals and sax playing really added a great atmosphere to the day and made it even more special, I am so glad my stand was placed next to him! (Good luck again to you Paul and your partner for 6 weeks time!)

Also wanted to mention Leanne and Chris from Love Letters a lovely couple who are getting married themselves in a few weeks time!  Pop over and check out their website, their 'Letters' are just lovely, I will be ordering myself an 'E' '&' 'E' for the Edward & Emma studio and to use on future exhibition stands and also a 'T' '&' 'I' for Tracey & Ian, the shabby chic ones will fit perfectly in our little cottage!  (Good luck to you both for your upcoming wedding day!)


Unfortunately I was so busy that I didn't get a chance to take a photo of my stand which I am annoyed with myself about as I was really happy with how it turned out, however I have added a couple of images that Sarah Vivienne took of my invitations when she did her Alice in Wonderland themed photo shoot at Kelmarsh Hall last year...

Lastly I send my thanks to Emma at A Bespoke Design and also Sarah Vivienne who suggested me to the ladies at Kelmarsh Hall in the first place, really grateful to you both!

Colour me pretty:

PANTONE have announced their fashion colour report for fall 2011, I love it when their posts pop into my reader, I find lots of inspiration from their colour predictions and I will definitely be using some of these delicious colours throughout my design work this year...

My favourites?
Well if I have to pick 3 then I would say, emberglow, honeysuckle and quarry...
And I love the illustrations below from each of the designers to go with the colours!


Which ones would you like to incorporate into your wedding or designs?!

Love Notes 22 :: Talkin to the songbird yesterday...




She's a little pilot in my mind
Singin songs of love to pass the time
Gonna write a song so she can see
Give her all the love she gives to me
Talk of better days that have yet to come
Never felt this love from anyone

She's not anyone
She's not anyone
She's not anyone

A man can never dream these kind of things
Especially when she came and spread her wings
Whisper in my ear the things I'd like
Then she flew away into the night
Gonna write a song so she can see
Give her all the love she gives to me
Talk of better days that have yet to come
Never felt this love from anyone

She's not anyone
She's not anyone
She's not anyone

Saying thank you...


Yesterday was our 1st Wedding Anniversary ~ and what a lovely 1st year we've had! So today I just wanted to share with you the thank you cards that I designed for our wedding. We decided upon an image of us that we thought all of our guests would like for the front but the special part was the text that we wrote and placed to the right of the photo...

we laughed
we cried
we kissed
we hugged
we ate
we drank
we danced
we loved...

we married

It truly summed up our day!

When I show our thank you card to my clients they always love the wording and ask if they can use the same ~ which makes me smile ~ some clients ask to change words or add words of their own, which is great as then it truly sums up their day!
