On the launch of April & Bloom, Founder Georgia Simmonds says: "I'm beyond excited to be launching April & Bloom to brides and bridal parties across the UK this week. The idea for April & Bloom sparked during my own wedding journey last year, when I wanted to give each of my bridesmaids a box filled with quality, yet affordable gifts that I knew they would genuinely love, use and keep. I couldn't find a brand that offered chic gifts that were aesthetically in line with my style and vision, all-in-one place, so I ended up sourcing products from lots of different websites, and putting the boxes together myself. I got such a positive response from the boxes I created that it got me to thinking, 'why not make this into a business for other like-minded brides!?'
"At April & Bloom our mission is to provide brides, bridal parties and wedding guests with beautiful gifts, which their loved ones will adore and remember forever. From the word 'yes' to the big 'I do', we're here for you, helping to add a little touch of magic along the way."

Planning a wedding is fun, stressful, time consuming. Couples want a ceremony that reflects their taste, is reflective of their love for each other and feels unique. The current restrictions in place can sometimes fetter that. Long-awaited plans to modernise weddings law in England and Wales could give couples far greater freedom over where and how they marry. It is hoped that they may be part of a much wider transformation of family law which is going through the biggest shakeup in decades.

Bye Bye Sweet Caroline: The Classic Anthems BANNED From UK Weddings
The era of the predictable wedding singalong is officially dead, according to new data from entertainment agency Jonny Ross Music. New figures have revealed that Britain's couples are ruthlessly blacklisting the nation's favourite party anthems from their big days. A shocking analysis of playlist requests shows that legendary floor-fillers are being banished to the 'Do Not Play' list. Modern couples are ordering DJs to completely snub overplayed staples like 'Uptown Funk' and 'Mr Brightside'. But Brits are not turning their backs on the dancefloor.
