I remember feeling quite anxious about the calenda I remember feeling quite anxious about the calendar flipping over to the year 2000. We weren’t quite sure what would happen when it got to midnight on New Year’s Eve. So I was relieved that nothing untoward happened when we joined not only a new decade, a new century, but also a new millennium. ___ My look back at weddings throughout the decades has continued and I am now taking a look at a real wedding of @susiegristcouture nearly 16 years ago in 2005. Even in the recent past, we can still take inspiration which helps with wedding planning in the future. ___ http://www.hanamidream.co.uk/weddings-through-the-decades-2000s/ ___ Disposable cameras were a popular wedding favour of the time and the cupcake tower was a massive trend. If you got married in the 2000s then you probably would’ve enjoyed a hog roast. ___ The cookie cutter approach to weddings was starting to dwindle as more personalised elements were creeping in and more couples were paying for their own weddings. ___ Social media was just starting to become a part of our lives and influence weddings, whilst couples could now create their own playlists on ipods. ___ #weddingsthroughouthistory #weddingsthroughtheyears #weddingsthroughthedecades #weddingsthroughtheages #weddingsthroughtime #weddingsthroughdecades #weddingsthroughthegenerations #2000swedding #2000sweddingdress #2000sweddinginspiration

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.

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
