Our Las Vegas Wedding Day!

The day of our wedding was everything I hoped for. Even a freak stomach bug, which stopped me from eating and drinking for a few days, couldn't stop it from being the happiest day of my life. Recent events in Las Vegas had made me hesitate on sharing this post, but that's not what the city or its people would want. Vegas is a pretty special place indeed, like no other. 

Our week in this crazy city (which included our pre-wedding shoot at the Neon Museum) was made even more special by being joined by 30 of our closest family and friends (and new friends, I'm looking at you Caleb + Levi!), which made it a truly an unforgettable experience. Just thinking back on our time there with everyone makes me want to relive it over and over again.

I'll keep this post short and sweet, but I must give our thanks to a few people:

Paul Smith for making my suit fit perfectly, Drakes for providing me with the awesome emerald green tie, The Newspaper Club for helping us create the newspaper for our guests, The Wynn hotel, SW restaurant + The Little Chapel of the West for being amazing hosts, Travis Allen aka the best and most classy Elvis tribute act you're ever likely to see. Special thank yous are also reserved for Caleb + Levi of Branch & Cole, whose names will live on as the legendary gents who documented every step of the way - I just hope that we made it a great experience for you too (that buffet, right?!)!

Take a look below at how our wedding day unfolded!

Thank you for visiting, we both hope you enjoyed them! We couldn't be happier.

Planning Our Las Vegas Wedding

We're just back from three weeks in America; 14 days spent around Florida, and eight days taking in the sights, sounds and smells of Las Vegas. I've got a bunch of good stuff to share from our trip, but the main reason why were we're in Vegas was to plan our wedding! That's right, some of you may know that myself and Hollie have been engaged for a couple of years, and soon we'll be setting a date!

So, come summer 2017 we'll be heading back to Las Vegas, with our friends and family, to get it done. I'm looking forward to sharing updates of our progress, which will hopefully bring a nice personal touch back to the blog. So first off, I need to get serious about sorting out a wedding suit, but where on earth do I start...?

It's all getting pretty real now, me and Hollie went to look at a venue yesterday for our wedding. We're weighing up all our options and have a few more places we'd like to have a gander at but it's pretty exciting stuff. I've been turning to London based Wedding PhotographerTom Ravenshear for imagery inspiration.

Proper pinable stuff. If you guys have any recommendations for possible wedding venues/photographers then just let me know!

Wedding Ideas - DIY Confetti Balloons


DIY Confetti Balloons via Studio DIY. I can't wait to show Hollie this, she's going to love it. Potentially a really cool idea for our wedding I reckon. Plus it looks pretty easy to recreate, so it's something I could actually lend a hand with. Win win. Does anyone remember the Balloon Invitation I made?
