What's your background and why did you launch your business?
While on furlough during the pandemic, I found that I was expressing myself more artistically and decided to take the leap and start my own business. We initially started out by producing items that I had worked with for a number of years at previous jobs and quickly diversified into other items and wedding stationary. I previously produced and designed my own stationary for my wedding in November 2019 and had always wanted to consider starting a business in this industry.

What's your favourite type of wedding to work on?
I like to work on small, intimate weddings, where the personality of the couple really shows through; I think this is because of the wedding that we planned for ourselves. I find that clients that aren't afraid to show off their personalities are the best to work with as it gives me a lot of scope.

What's your top tip for choosing wedding stationery?
Find a colour scheme to fit in with you, your venue and the wedding as a whole. It's very easy to be distracted by something incredibly intricate and detailed, most of which wouldn't be picked up on by your guests. Also, try to stick to your budget.

Why more couples are letting the coast shape their wedding day

Why more couples are letting the coast shape their wedding day

For couples planning a wedding, the setting is increasingly becoming more than a backdrop. Research from WeddingDates found that 78% of UK couples consider location an important factor when choosing a venue, with more than a third specifically influenced by the view. Rockwater, the UK coastal hospitality brand with beachfront venues in Hove and Branksome, says this is helping reshape how couples approach weddings by the water. Rather than simply choosing a coastal venue and then planning the celebration independently of it, couples are increasingly allowing the landscape, changing light and relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces to influence the day itself. Rockwater has identified four of the key considerations shaping modern coastal weddings.

Something old, something gone: The British wedding traditions on borrowed time

New Aspall research reveals the wedding traditions that are being dropped - from the bouquet toss and choreographed first dances, to the father-of-the-bride speech - and the modern alternatives taking their place. Speeches given only by men (36%), a choreographed first dance (34%) and the formal receiving line (30%) are among the wedding traditions that couples are keenest to ditch, a new study reveals. Wearing a veil, the 15-minute father-of-the-bride speech with no speech from the bride, and the traditional tiered fruit cake are also increasingly falling out of favour as Brits tie the knot, researchers found.

New app launches to simplify one of marriage’s biggest admin headaches

Changing your name after marriage can mean updating details with countless organisations, from banks and subscriptions to official documents and employers. New app Name Change Navigator aims to make the process easier, guiding newlyweds through each step from one platform. Founded by Rebecca Dainton, Head of Product at Flutter UK & Ireland, the app was created to reduce the stress and mental load associated with name changes. It supports a range of naming journeys, including traditional surname changes, double-barrelling, blended surnames and other choices following marriage, civil partnership, divorce or personal identity changes. The launch comes as younger generations increasingly rethink traditional naming conventions, with technology offering a more streamlined approach to this often-overlooked part of newlywed life.
