Rustic Romance in Ronda, Spain

Squeaking with excitement yet again as we receive the professional photos from our weddings, lots of oohing and ahhing as we so enjoy seeing all our styling and designs come together beautifully to create a truly personal and magical day.

Here is a sneak preview of a few of our gorgeous wedding details for a beautiful wedding we planned and designed, for our music mad couple, in a fabulous location in Ronda.

From our handmade origami ombre crane garlands gently swaying over the ceremony area under the tree, fabulous florals, Izzi´s famous handwritten signs and plenty of sparkle and twinkle all created a perfect day.  The stationery template was created by Lindsey over at Splash of Silver and with this beautiful template we created the table seating plan, paddle fans, wedding signage, place cards and table names.

We will tell the whole story soon with more gorgeous images from the talented photographer Anna Gazda but wanted to share a sneak preview of this pretty wedding :)

We have many more weddings to post up soon from our rustic romance styles to gloriously glittery and glam!

Next week we will be working on two amazing weddings, a Moroccan fusion of purples, blues and golds and a very unusual wedding which is going to be amazing but we have to keep this fabulous theme a secret for a little bit longer!

Paul Gill

It is with great sadness we have learnt of the passing away of Paul Gill in the early hours of this morning.  

Paul Gill was a funny, charming man who conducted many ceremonies here on the Costa Del Sol and his sudden passing away will be a great loss to the wedding industry here.

Paul will leave many lovely memories to our couples whose ceremonies he beautifully conducted.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this very sad time.

If this affects your wedding arrangements please do get in touch with your wedding planner or directly with Paul´s son in law Richard Hoddes

An Extraordinary Wedding at the Marbella Club

After months of planning, at the beginning of June, Ingrid and Hugo treated their guests to the most extraordinary wedding weekend here in Marbella.  

I knew from my second meeting with Ingrid, along with her friend, this was not going to be an ordinary wedding as we discussed balloons, stilt walkers, fire eaters and acrobatic entertainers :)

Together with Ingrid and Hugo we planned a fabulously fun weekend of dining and entertainment for their guests travelling in from abroad.

A pre wedding dinner hosted at the Gran Gatsby overlooking the famous Puerto Banus harbour started the weekend´s celebrations.

The wedding day was set in the iconic Marbella Club at the newly refurbished Villa Del Mar, a stunning setting and location.  

Guests were greeted with stilt walkers and it is not often a bride is accompanied with a stilt walker and low flying model aircraft, it made a change from flower girls!  

Hugo and Ingrid shared their meaningful ceremony by the fountain with their children and all were made to sign a wedding contract in the style of an old scroll.

White heart shaped balloons, decorated with flowers, were let off during the cocktail which was a stunning sight over Marbella!

The guests were then treated to an extraordinary evening of fine food and wines, live entertainment, fire eaters and some fabulous dancing.  We used a white and fresh green colour scheme for the florals, created by Virginia, and the garden of the Villa Del Mar was dressed with our famous fairy lights and candles creating a wonderful ambience for the guests to enjoy the evening´s entertainment and service.

The cake was based on a Dutch design Ingrid had sent us and white balloons with sparklers attached were let off during the evening into the night sky, I don´t think Marbella has seen so many balloons in one evening :)

The party continued the next day at the Trocadero Beach with their guests being treated to a wonderful beach lunch.  It was a fabulous weekend and one we loved planning and styling, well done to Carla for organising such a wonderful weekend and a big thank you to my team who all helped to put everything together and create such a fabulous party!

Our congratulations to Hugo and Ingrid and a thank you for letting us share such a special weekend with you, your family and friends.
