Purple wedding fabulousness

Paris wonders

Well Paris turned out to be a little bit of a nightmare... stolen camera, too much snow, no Eurostar so stuck in Paris, then stuck in Antwerp, nearly not home for Christmas and so amidst all the mayhem there wasn't much opportunity for fabulous photo taking.

So here's a selection from the world wide web that should hopefully provide some whimsical, wondrous, Parisian magic...(and there's no snow in sight).



oh macaroons and pastries in general... there is no substitute for the way they melt in your mouth...



Chanel, Chanel, if only you were more affordable.

I love butterflies but more often than not when used as a wedding 'theme' they can stray into that territory every bride wants to avoid - tackiness. This cake is beyond gorgeous and shows you how it can be done right! Check out more pretty and yummy treats at Delicious Desserts.

Paris how I love thee...

So we're off to Paris tomorrow for a quick break/research trip. Paris has always been one of my favourite cities and of course is one of the most romantic cities in the world so it's not a bad spot for a wedding either.

I'll be blogging some of our Parisian wedding tips on my return so until then, have a lovely weekend.

Bon au revoir mes petits choux-fleurs!

Blog love

This is just a little post to say to all you wonderful bloggers that I really enjoy reading all your wedding and non wedding related posts and if I could spend all day every day finding new blogs and commenting on all the ones I want to I would.

So I thought I'd post a selection of blogs I particularly like (and wish I had more time to comment on). You're are all a constant source of inspiration.

So in no particular order here's some of my faves...

♥ Blushless
♥ Peacock Feathers & Diamond Rings
♥ Bride Chic
♥ K, Tea?
♥ Chic 'n Cheap Living
♥ A Foxy Wedding
♥ Thoughtful Day
♥ Talking to Unicorns
♥ Green Wedding Shoes
♥ Oh Joy!

I'm sure there's more I've forgotten so I think I'll do this post again soon! Until then thank you lovely ladies! x

Can there be anything more deliciously adorable than this for an Alice in Wonderland inspired wedding?

I love the mix of the quirky edginess of Alice with the dainty delight of pink!

And white, pink and black is one of my fave colour combos. Yum!

Cheap and cosy Christmas wedding lights

What a good idea this is eh!? Would look great at a warm winter wedding. The only tricky bit would be getting a hole in the bottle but I guess it's obviously possible. Any ideas as to the best way?
