We await the roadmap announcement tomorrow, when w We await the roadmap announcement tomorrow, when we hope that there is clearer guidance on the way out of lockdown including what will happen to weddings in 2021. ___ I’m thinking ahead for later in the year as Pantone® have announced the colours for the autumnal and winter months of 2021/22. ___ There are some bright and bold colours to really make a statement this autumn. Leading the way, the yellow colour of the year (Illuminating) brightens the mood and provides a glimmer of sunny days ahead. ___ We may be feeling a bit blue at the moment, but the calming blues will relax us by a Spring Lake or under the Clear Sky, lazing by the pool of Mykonos or Ibiza Blue. With reliable and stable navy (Rhodonite or After Midnight). ___ Rich, earthy, autumnal fiery colours are reminiscent of bonfires and sitting from a firepit toasting marshmallows, including Fire Whirl, Adobe, Root Beer, Red Alert, Tomato Cream, Daylily, Downtown Brown. ___ #coy2021 #ColoroftheYear #weddingthemes #weddingcolours #weddingtrends #colourpredictions #FW21 #fall21 #autumn21 #winter21 #autumnwedding #autumnwedding2021 #pantone #NYFW #LFW #colourinspiration #autumnweddingcolours #autumnweddinginspiration
Love is all you need. Love can come in many differ Love is all you need. Love can come in many different forms: romantic, friendship, parental, self care... Even if you can’t share the day with your nearest and dearest today, take the opportunity to tell them how much you care about them. Celebrate the love you have. #loveislove #valentines #valentinesday #galentinesday #happygalentinesday #happygalentines #happyvalentines #happyvalentinesday #loveisallyouneed #loveisallaround #lovelovemedo

Can’t stop thinking about cake at the moment! Do Can’t stop thinking about cake at the moment! Don’t know if it’s because I need a bit of an energy boost, a bit of excitement or something to celebrate. ___ When it comes to weddings, cakes are often the focal point of the wedding reception, culminating in a great photo opportunity when it formally gets cut. ___ Even though some couples are picking alternatives to the humble wedding cake, the evolution of this element is nothing new as it’s seen many guises over the years including bread rolls and pie. ___ The custom originally dates back to Roman and Medieval times when bread would’ve been thrown at the bride. Thankfully this developed into the breaking of the bread over the head. ___ Over time this progressed into guests bringing baked goods to the wedding and piling them up as high as possible. The couple would try and kiss over this high cake without it falling over and were deemed to have good fortune if they were successful. Not content with the instability of a baked goods stack, one clever baker came up with the idea of sticking the rolls together and the Croquembouche was born. ___ Today’s traditional wedding cakes have a rich fruit cake, often a gorgeous layer of marzipan (that I can’t get enough of! ) and white fondant icing. The white colour of the bride’s cake was a sign of purity and also one of wealth (as fine white sugar would’ve been expensive back in the day). The whiter the cake the wealthier you were plus the number of tiers showed extravagance too (although often some tiers could be fake ones to save money!) ___ #weddingsthroughouthistory #weddingsthroughtheyears #weddingcake #weddingtrends #weddingtraditions #weddinginspiration #weddingplanning
Yesterday the children had to go on a gratitude wa Yesterday the children had to go on a gratitude walk as part of their home schooling. It reminded me of all the things that we can be thankful for, no matter how small they are even at a time when it’s hard to see. ___ ‘Even when the sky is full of clouds, the sun still shines above’ ___ #thesunstillshinesabove #wellness #gratitudewalk #thankfulforfamily
All the dreadful, grey weather this week has been All the dreadful, grey weather this week has been making me think about the Dorothy Norwood song from 1978, There’s got to be rain in your life (to appreciate the sunshine) ___ ‘You know it's said that into each life, some rain must fall But behind every dark cloud, the sun will shine. I want to take a little time out to explain to you what I mean. You see, you don't know how good it is to get over, If you've never been under. You don't know how it feels to be up, If you've never been down. You don't know how good it is to have peace of mind, If you've never had to worry. You see you just don't realize what it is to be happy, If you've never been sad. Let me tell you why ... There’s got to be rain in your life To appreciate the sunshine There’s got to be rain in your life To appreciate the sunshine ... When trouble comes, That's rain When you're sad, Rain When the tears are falling down, That's rain When death come calling, It ain't nothing but rain You don't know what it is to wear a smile If you've never wore a frown’ ___ #sunshineaftertherain #behindeverycloudisthesun #canthavearainbowwithoutalittlerain #cotswoldwedding #cotswoldweddingblog #oxfordshirewedding #oxfordshireweddingblog #weddingplanning #weddinginspiration #windinthewillows #styledshoot #bridalshoot beautiful photo credits to: Minster Mill @brownswordhotels @farrowphoto @classic_flowers_witney_ @papertreeoxon @vintagegoldchina @stonesfieldsoap #hanamidream
