What a day! Where did the sun go?! Ah well lets talk wedding to cheer ourselves up. 
Today we are talking big, bold and beautiful! Oh yes Fairy bugs. I know that people sometimes see this as tacky but lets take inspiration from the designers on how to make it truly gorgeous! 
For most brides their Wedding day is about making a statement and having the princess gown they have always dreamed of. Well why shouldn't you! You could take inspiration from the Carolina Herrera gown below, go big and bold but with delicate lace and simple lines. There is still plenty of va va voom here but it looks soft and dreamy! As previously mentioned there is a fabulous choice of lace dresses out there at the moment, but if you haven't found the wow dress with lace details why not add them? A subtle waistband, motifs, lace trimmed veil? You can still be a fashion forward bride in the fairytale gown just accessorise :)
Speaking of accessories the princess gown would most definitely need the jaw dropping, ambience filled centre pieces. Take a look below at the flowers seen at bellethemagazine. Full of tonal colours, perfectly mixed flowers but with a classy crystal vase. Wowzers! Your guests will be talking about how your big, bold, beautiful wedding was show stompingly stunning x

High street buy of the Week x

Hello Fairy Bugs, what an amazing bank holiday! Great weather the past couple of days and it got me thinking. What would be a beautiful accessory for a glorious sunny Wedding day? Well let me share this weeks 'Must have' with you.
I came across 'Brollies Galore' a short while ago as i was looking for a delightful parasol for my own wedding. I loved the thought of a parasol not only because its a great fashion accessory but because my sister can't be in the sun too long and would be super to protect her.
The 'Abigail' parasol is gorgeous with a delicate pattern crafted out of cotton lace and embroidery. Take a peek below it really is stunning, and an absolute steal at £29.99. With programmes like Downton abbey trending, this really is the Must have item for your very own piece of Period glamour.

Wedding Inspiration x

Hello Fairy bugs - what a sunny morning! It's lovely so lovely in fact i had the music blasting out of the car on the way to work with my biggest bestest shades on (too cool).
It inspired me to show a more fresh, delicate almost (dare i say it) summer theme. There are many ways you can taylor your wedding to be truly summer themed, as are there many ways in which you can add those vintage hints without going all out vintage. The trick is in the details!! No really little touches here and there make your wedding stand out and will really strike a chord with your guests. 
For instance if you are having a church wedding and need to dress the pews a bit of fabric and ribbon wrapped and ties with a few delicate flowers are so eye catching, when really its quick and easy, while cutting the floral costs down!
If you love vintage washed out colours and soft tones why not opt for a light duck egg or faded mint. This will emphasis a vintage feel without too much expense on the accessories! Plus they look super summery, fresh and yummy :)
Now For the bride......there is so much lace around that you will be spoilt for choice if you want a dress which, looks vintage, ooooozes style and screams OMG she's looks stunning. The trick is to take inspiration from the designers. Check out the heart stopping Monique Lhullier dress below. One of the gorgeous details of the dress is the soft lace work on the shoulders. This is a super feature to look for or even have added to a strapless dress. This will definitely be a characteristic other brides may not have cottoned onto yet! be the first. Another stunning trend is cut out backs! Keep your eyes peeled they are too hot to trot x
