I am currently looking for a great place for photo booth rental in the UK, we have decided that we want a photo booth at our wedding so that people can get their picture taken and mess around and have a little bit of fun with it – the idea being that it provides some entertainment for the guests who get to keep the photos as a momentum of the day, but also we get to keep copies of the photos ourselves so that we can see and be reminded of all our friends and family having a lot of fun.

Apparently the capture pod phenomenon started at the Splashlight Studios in Miami which is interesting to know, but the first time I saw it was at a friend of a friends wedding a few weeks ago – I was not there myself but they brought the photos they had taken in the booth with them to work a few days later to show them off and she told me all about it. I fell in love with the idea there and then.

As you should know by now we don’t want too big a wedding, just a small event with close family and friends so it’s not like it’s going to cost us an arm and a leg, this means that when there is something we both really do want we are happy to pay for it and we know that our loved ones will get a real kick out of it.

I have been looking around online for a UK based company where I can get us one from and am so far drawing a big of a blank. I have asked my friend to ask her friend where they got theirs from but am still waiting to hear back from her about it

I am heading to a Wedding Hair and Makeup Salon at the weekend – no, not for my wedding, we are no where near that stage in the planning yet. I am going with a friend who’s getting married at the end of August and wants to test out some styles before the big day, apparently I am being invited along because she knows I will be honest about things even if I don’t like them – I think that’s meant as a compliment

So as you know by now I am planning on getting married in a few months time. My partner and I have been together for 7 years as of June 6th and we’ve been engaged for 4 years as of July 6th, so we really feel like now is the time to get on with it and get the big day planned – however unlike most couples these days we don’t want to spend a fortune on a big lavish event, we only want close friends and family there and we want to spend as little possible.

We originally budgeted for £1000, but slowly and surely realised how totally unrealistic that was even for a small wedding. All those little but essential things that you don’t even think about to begin with soon add up – like wedding insurance, that didn’t even cross my mind until I was reading a wedding plan checklist online.

Of course as with anything I purchase online I will be using a comparison site before purchasing my wedding insurance. I’ve already found some great rates via a wedding insurance comparison site a friend told me about but I am hoping to find a deal I can combine with a cashback offer so I am going to have to keep checking the wedding insurance comparison site and hoping I can get the two things to coincide – making for another killer wedding bargain to hopefully at least try to keep those costs down.

Irish traditions are rich and full of both whimsy and sentiment. This is especially true when it comes to weddings and marriage. The Irish symbolize beautifully the real meaning of marriage with their wedding rings. celtic engagement rings and wedding bands have a style all their own, but still lend themselves to adding your own personal touches. An antique gold ring with the telltale woven pattern is the perfect symbol of the blending of two lives.

It is customary in many Jewish, Christian or non denominational wedding services to exchange rings. To further highlight the reason you chose a Celtic engagement ring, you can include a brief message of its meaning on your invitation.

The meaning of the intertwined or woven pattern is symbolic of the blending and joining of two lives into one never ending circle. You can further enhance this message through the music you choose for your ceremony.

Irish or not, using Celtic engagement rings and Irish music will make any wedding ceremony and reception special. This is a day to always remember and the rings you wear will be a part of that memory long after the champagne is gone and the guests have returned home. Keep the feelings you have on that day a part of everyday with the symbolic ring style.

…I love this show, it’s part of my daytime trash TV line up, so imagine my joy at hearing about a new show following a similar format but featuring weddings! It airs on Living and I don’t get that channel unfortunately, but I am sure I will be able to get it online somewhere…I just need to remember what it’s called!

It’s the same sort of thing where instead of dinner parties the guests attend weddings and judge and rate them — everything from the grooms vows to the bridal shower favors gets scrutinised and rated…and judging by the previews there’s a lllooooottt of drama.

Can’t wait.

You wouldn’t believe the trouble I have had over the last few weeks trying to find a dress to wear for a wedding I am going to next Saturday.

It’s a pretty foreign concept to me, being skinny enough to wear pretty dresses — the last time I went to a wedding in 2006 I was wearing a size 22 and it was a case of just buying something that fit and didn’t look too much like a tent, I did not feel confident in what I was wearing but then…I didn’t feel confident full stop.

Now I have a whole world of gorgeous formal dresses opened up to me I just don’t know where to begin.

I didn’t know what styles suited me, I didn’t know what shapes suited me, I didn’t know what colours suited me, I didn’t know what dresses were ‘weddingy’, what shoes to wear with what dress etc etc

Several shopping trips and three returned outfits later I finally have it sorted. I am wearing a gorgeous bronze coloured empire line dress that comes to just below the knee, a little orange shrug on the top and killer brown heals and a satin clutch bag.

Hopefully I will feel confident in this one

When the other half and I get married, we are definitely hiring a commercial photographer to take our shots.

We don’t want a big flashy wedding and we won’t be spending a fortune, but I am quite happy for us to pay a lot for a professional photographer.

See we both hate having our picture taken, I have never seen a photo of me that I have liked and actually think even looks like me — we are the people who run and hide as soon as anyone produces a camera, so if it was left up to us/our guests to snap the day there would be no pictures of us after the event.

However if we pay a tidy sum to a master photographer, you can be sure I would want to get my monies worth and that desire would overtake my dislike of having my picture taken. I would be encouraging them to take more more more and ultimately of course I want lots of pictures to look back on of the big day
