Wedding Inspiration of the Week x

Hi Fairy bugs,

brrrrrr hasn't it gone cold! Winters definitely on it's way! So while it's raining and blowing an absolute gail outside we know our lovely brides to be will be busily creating and planning their special day, and as your Fairy Godmother we've been forming this weeks mood board from our pinterest pages.......yes collated and organised just for you........so here goes :)

Black and white fabulousness is this weeks focus. Striking, classy, chic and a little bit gorgeous, these 2 simple colours create a real sense of uber glam in a rather sophisticated manor. Add a touch of glitz and bibbidi bobbidi boo there's a perfect wedding theme for you.

Let's jump right in with the important bits. The Cake (yum yum). We adore the image below of the lace effect cake. What a show stopping piece! The slick black detail on the fondant white is a beaut! Why not pair it up with bride and groom cake pop favours.....too cute for words. They'll bring a talking point to your tables and we're sure they pop up in a few pictures.

Invites are a key feature as they set the scene for the day to come. Check out the ornate detailing on the invites below.....#lovethem. You could follow this well thought out detailing on your table plan, name cards, thank you cards etc. Also we really adore the initials on the centre of the invite.....what a gorgeous finishing touch.

Now flowers aren't everyones cup of tea so why not consider this.......tall vases with floating candles and lace detailing as shown below. You could even add black crystals into the bottom of the vases for an extra summit summit. Not loving the thought of a fresh flower bouquet, thats ok.......why not go all hollywood glitz and glam with your very own plush bouquet? Collect old brooches, necklace ornaments evening earrings and collate them in to one fabulous piece. The lovely thing is that you can treasure it forever and it'll never fade. You could do the same for bridemaids so they have a special piece to treasure.

Now for the attire. Chic, stylish and uniformed, the bridal party below are a real photographers dream. The black outfits not only enhance the bride and her dress but will wow the guests when they walk down the isle. If this is a bit too formal, pick different dresses for the bridesmaids but in the same colour. Even add a lovely sash or belt to break up the solid block of colour. It's very hard to go wrong with 2 colours that were created to compliment each other.

This will certainly bring the va va voom to your speical day xx
