Well I cannot believe that it is nearly the middle of February and this is my first post of the year!
I guess the snow, Christmas, family and a very busy start to the new year have taken their toll on my ability to tell you all about it! The snow gave us a few challenges, one bride called upon our services for decorating her venue, when her original company got stuck. they made it eventually, but it was all hands to the pump and between us everything looked stunning. One of our brides who had booked on the day co-ordination from us certainly made us earn our money. Most of her guests were either travelling from the Midlands or flying in from Europe while 90% of Britain was under a blanket of snow. Unfortunately (but probably sensibly) a couple of guests decided to stay at home, but we managed to juggle travel arrangements and everyone else managed to get there. One of my most genuine thank yous was from the brides grandmother when I provided her with a blanket and a hot chocolate from my flask. (Please note this service is not normally available). My beloved husband always advises to keep a shovel, torch and broom in the car, bless him, he looks so smug when he is right. My essential tips guide now includes a section for winter brides. When booking wedding cars, make sure the company has access to four wheel drive vehicles in case of bad weather. Better to get to your wedding in not so perfect 4WD than not at all. The rest of the Christmas season was busy with parties etc and new year saw me sorting out my McKay's from my McLean's as a Burns Night celebration requested some very special tartan decorations. Our wedding year kicked off last week with a busy weekend of two weddings one at the gorgeous Hempstead House and the other at the forever popular but fantastic Cooling Castle Barns where all thinks pink and black were the order of the day.
