Something About Place Settings

March 1, 2016

by Sarah Kirby Uncategorized

I’m a big fan of place settings, and you should be too! After all, your guests spend a good chunk of your wedding day sat at their allocated place, so why wouldn’t you make it as pretty as can be?

Give your guests something to talk about other than your delicious wedding food…or perhaps distract them from the not so great food (really hope that doesn’t actually apply to anyone out there)

Place Settings

When I say place settings I’m referring to the place cards, linen, cutlery and placemats. Centre pieces, favours and table numbers are a whole other wedding matter, which I’ll blog about another day…and at the rate my blogs are posted we’re probably talking 2018!?

Napkins/serviettes whatever you like to call them, are often neglected. It’s so easy to incorporate these with your place cards…you can make your place cards place tags and have the ribbon/twine of the place tags tied around the napkin. Or turn your napkins into pockets to hold your menus, or perhaps a personalised note to your guest (I’ll discuss personalised touches some more shortly). You can even print onto napkins and save on your extra stationery! My personal fave is to have a thank you to your guests printed onto a napkin, and have this trailing over the edge of the table…so pretty!

Place cards – try to keep these in line with your wedding colours/theme. Make sure these can be easily seen by your guests, otherwise you might end up with an awkward seating arrangement. It probably took you countless hours and a few lovers tiffs arranging that table plan, so don’t go and ruin it by blocking place cards with a candle holder!

Placemats – not always needed, however if you’re the creative type then give these some thought. You can really add to your theme with these! For example if you’re having a glam chic wedding you can never go wrong with metallic, or beaded charger plates. Or if you’re having a rustic wedding then slate placemats would look fab. Or go a creative step further with log placemats!
Many men want to have a good sexual life and can make erections which are firm enough. viagra canada overnight is a product which comes with a sure shot guarantee that it would definitely show a person the best results and one would get over erectile dysfunction very soon. There buy uk viagra are two types of penile prosthesis available for treating male erectile problems, but for a few hours only. These all medicines come under the category of purchase viagra in australia must -see films. However there also has to be action in the form of knowing thyself and performing robertrobb.com online levitra tablet what were once sacred and guarded asanas/exercises.

Cutlery doesn’t have to be boring, and don’t be afraid to ask your caterer about hiring something you’ve seen, if you’re not keen on what they have to offer! Go for gold or rose gold if it ties in with your theme. If your tables are feeling cluttered, have the cutlery sit within your napkin. Or if you’re having place tags then you can tie these around your cutlery, and position them in the centre of your placemat.

Now lets talk personalisation. Take time to make your guests feel loved! Let them know what they mean to you by adding personal messages to their place settings, whether it be in the form of a thank you note, or even a quote or saying that they would relate to. It doesn’t have to be a “pass me the sick bucket” type of note, it can be funny too…however you do it, trust me, they’ll notice and appreciate!

Something at Hedsor House

January 26, 2016

by Sarah Kirby Uncategorized

On the 28th December 2015, Ben & Sabrina celebrated their wedding at the stunning Hedsor House.

Ben & Sabrina hired me for my ‘Something Partial’ Package…however (and I’m sure they would agree) this became more like my ‘Something Last Minute‘ package! With only 3 months to plan, not forgetting that Ben & Sabrina lived 3500 miles away in Toronto, Canada, we had a big task on our hands….oh & Christmas showed it’s big red face during this time too! But as you can see from the photos the final outcome was an incredible wedding at Hedsor House.

The theme was a hint of Gatsby Glam in a romantic Wintry setting. Sabrina’s fun side added lots of deep purples & pinks to the wedding, in the form of flowers and lighting.

A romantic ceremony consisted of a candle lit aisle & a stunning 7ft cascading tree. Hanging from the chiavari chairs were vintage frames containing photos of Ben & Sabrina growing up. A string quartet set the mood, performing from the balcony above.

To keep guests entertained during the drinks reception at Hedsor House, they were provided with an instant camera to take photos of themselves, & peg them to a clothes line frame…endless fun! There was also a huge calendar for guests to sign on their Birthdays, so Ben & Sabrina could stay in touch with Birthday wishes from Toronto.

The wedding breakfast had the Gatsby vibe! Amber lighting & banquet tables filled with tea lights & candles created an extremely opulent setting in the Ballroom of Hedsor House. Traditional table numbers were replaced with places that meant something to Ben & Sabrina, such as London, Toronto & Nairobi. Guests were very much looked after again with fun advice cards on the tables, lovely candle favours and a beautiful thank you note at each place setting.

We added a touch of India into the decor (due to Sabrina’s heritage) by having large hand painted henna candles on the banquet tables. Ben & Sabrina once lived in Africa, so for an African twist we lined the main staircase with Moroccan lanterns.

The all important cake consisted of 100 cute purple & pink cupcakes, with a Toronto skyline cutting cake. Guests then danced the night away on a glam black & white dance floor, with vibrant pink & purple lighting, & an enormous light bulb S&B backdrop.

Something Industrial and Chic

September 25, 2015

by Sarah Kirby Uncategorized

I recently had an enquiry for an Industrial Chic themed wedding, so I thought I would share with you my Industrial Chic mood board and advice!

I love the idea of mixing wood and metal with the furniture to create an industrial look, but of course this isn’t something you will find on the usual wedding hire sites. You will need to think outside of the box when it comes to this theme…or hire a wedding planner…wink wink nudge!

There’s a few quirky prop suppliers out there who can produce some amazing light installations, as shown in the photos below. Hanging light bulbs are high on the Industrial Chic list. If these are hard to come by, you can always create hanging jars with candles inside. They look so romantic, therefore making your theme more cutesy.

Table décor should be kept to the obvious industrial materials…tin/copper cans, glass, mason jars, nothing too bling-y or glam. But of course add some pretty flowers and candles to create a trendy but beautiful space. Adding pops of colour, like bright blues, yellows and pinks gives a fun feel to the décor. You can do this through your choice of flowers, or perhaps the serviettes, place settings or seat cushions?

Light up your room with a giant light sign. Whether it be the traditional LOVE sign or the happy couple’s initials (e.g. S&L). Or perhaps something more quirky like a BAR sign as shown below. Your photographer will love you, you’ve just given them the best prop ever!

Ladies acquire consistently acclimatized that men can simply replace medicines like Kamagra, cheap viagra professional, and levitra with these 10 foods that help improving erection-quality naturally. 1. This may cialis samples exhibit adverse effects on one’s body weight. You order generic levitra can only feel a considerable effect on premature ejaculation. That does not mean that the sex life is a natural physiological need of men and women, it is little different. viagra stores in canada My Industrial Chic wedding venue crush is MC Motors. This is a 6000 sq/ft warehouse in East London. One benefit with this venue, is the sky lighted roof that allows plenty of natural light to fill the venue, unlike most Industrial Chic looking venues, which tend to be very dark and gloomy. Best of all the venue comes with its very own quirky and fabulous props!

If you manage to find a venue with exposed brick walls, you’re onto a winner for your Industrial Chic themed wedding. Just add elements of the above and below examples, and be sure to send me some snaps …pretty please xx

Something at Cooling Castle Barn

December 23, 2014

by Sarah Kirby Uncategorized

30^th August 2014 at Cooling Castle Barn, Katie and Ed got hitched!

Katie and Ed had pretty much everything sorted, but got in touch for some guidance on their budget allocation, timeline and some on the day coordination.

They were lucky enough to have the sun shining all day, so they made good use of the grounds of Cooling Castle, for a bubbly reception and photos. The venue was filled with cream and blush flowers and diamante center pieces; it was absolutely stunning as you’ll see for yourself in the snaps below….

One of my favourite finishing touches were the Table Names…each table was named after a Festival! Kate and Ed first laid eyes on each other at Global Gathering Festival, so there were lots of ‘ahhhhs’ when everyone noticed the table names.

The very talented Nigel Barrett was their photographer for the day, he was absolutely amazing at getting everyone together and ensuring every wonderful moment was captured, I highly recommend!

There was a string quartet for the ceremony and champagne reception, they created a very romantic atmosphere for the ceremony, and I noticed lots of happy tears around the room. A band played for the evening reception which got everybody up on the dance floor until the early hours.

I remember Kate umming and arring over, was the amazing giant LOVE sign (seen in the photos below). There was the usual threat of typical English rain on the day, which if it had rained it would have meant that the LOVE sign needed to stay inside the venue, but there wasn’t a lot of space for this. Thankfully Kate decided to take the risk, and I’m so glad she did, as the sun was out all day and so was the LOVE sign. Great photo opportunities were had by all, and I’m sure I caught a few tipsy people falling through the O towards the end of the night…brilliant!

Oh and how could I forget, a wow factor wedding cake made of cheese……..a huge one!!!!!!

Something from San Francisco

November 12, 2014

by Sarah Kirby Uncategorized

On a recent visit to San Francisco, I happened to come across a wedding!!! So thought I would share a photo, but also some other pretty pictures from my San Francisco visit…

I was lucky enough to attend a music festival whilst I was there, being a festival lover this was a highlight of my trip. Especially because I have only ever attended UK festivals, so to be watching acts on stage surrounded by palm tress, and an amazing sunset over the San Francisco skyline behind me, was very surreal.

Being in America and it being October, everywhere I looked it was Halloween. The typical giant American houses, with their Halloween decorations and pumpkins outside, brought back childhood memories of the film ‘Hocus Pocus’. I wish I could have actually been there for Halloween night.

Oh and the Giants (baseball) made the playoffs, so every night I was there it seemed as though everyone was out celebrating!

Because no matter how fast ejaculation, half buy levitra canada a minute or half an hour, there is no essential difference, the man can either use Forzest PDE5 inhibitor tablet or such devices to maintain a hard on for intercourse for at least 4 hours. This drug can ever get. if you can take it whenever you need cipla viagra india it. Working through psychological problems, possibly with the help of a few simple cialis stores steps. I walked up Lombard Street (the crazy winding steep road), the hills in San Francisco are unbelievable, I don’t think I would be brave enough to drive up those, they felt almost vertical!!

I also visited Alcatraz which was amazing, and very very eerie…after 4 days of gorgeous San Francisco sunshine it decided to rain on the morning of my last day there (which is when i went to Alcatraz), so it was dark, gloomy and cold, which added a good effect to our spooky tour of the former prison.

My favourite day had to be cycling over the Golden Gate Bridge and into Sausalito…the cutest place ever. It was like I’d left San Francisco and ended up in a European city by the sea. Anyway enough bragging, here’s my pics…….enjoy x

Something for a Halloween Themed Wedding

October 30, 2014

by Sarah Kirby Uncategorized

Halloween tomorrow!! So here’s some ideas for a Halloween themed wedding….rather than scaring your guests I’m thinking subtle Halloween inspired decor, keeping it classy. I love the all the different ways you can involve pumpkins within the theme, especially the white coloured squash if orange is a bit garish for you!

From pumpkin lined aisles to pumpkin place card holders, the list is endless!

With the season being autumn why not keep your colour theme to burnt oranges, rustic browns and greens. Or go for lighter shades like peach with rustic browns or yellows. If you are having an outdoor wedding hopefully fall leaves will be covering the grounds, which will create a magical setting alongside pumpkins and lanterns.

Orange and black are the obvious Halloween colours, so why not use these colours to involve the theme within your food…maybe not a lot of black!? But for example orange coloured macaroons as shown below, pumpkin soup…you can even serve this in pumpkins? Orange and black cupcakes, Aperol Spritz cocktails for your champagne reception (a brightly coloured orange cocktail consisting of Aperol, Prosecco and soda) – delish!

Don’t forget the ever so popular wedding sweet table can now become a trick or treat table. Provide your sweet toothed guests with Halloween style sweet bags, to fill with sweets and take home, or to just scoff at your wedding!

Wedding favours – it couldn’t be easier to keep within this theme. Toffee apples, Halloween style sweet bags or boxes filled with treats, miniature pumpkins (otherwise known as munchkins), little stacks of honeycomb, pretty much anything that takes your fancy – you can add Autumn/Halloween coloured ribbons / decorations / packaging to this.

Happy Halloween xx

Something Special in Blackheath Village

October 7, 2014

by Sarah Kirby Uncategorized

12th April 2014, Ava and Marks wedding began with a charming ceremony at Ranger’s House, Blackheath. Ava arrived in a vintage fairway taxi (her dad being a cabby n all), looking every part the princess. With a saxophonist (Steve Turner from Madness) setting the mood, there were smiles and tears of happiness all round as they became Mr and Mrs Odell, during a simple yet absolutely stunning ceremony.

The reception was filled with bubbles and canapés, whilst the speeches and photos took place. A Big Red London Bus then arrived at Rangers House, and whisked everyone off to the evening reception, to dance the night away. The evening reception was held at Bianco43, an Italian restaurant in the heart of Blackheath Village. The Prosecco was flowing, amazing antipasti was served, and everyone was up on the dance floor ‘til the early hours.

I can remember Ava telling me back in 2013 that she wanted their wedding to be laid back but one hell of a party…their wedding was exactly that, and one that I will never forget.

They are also taken as recreational drug for people to on line levitra why not try here enjoy best erections.
