Boys! Feeling left out?

Okay, so I'm the first to admit Before the Big day errs a bit on the side of the bride, and although I don't want to send the men away, I would recommend future husbands check out GroomGroove and Staggered. GroomGroove is an American site, but it's still got plenty of hints that translate into English {!}.  One of my favourite tools is the Diamond Engagement Ring Calculator, where you can enter your salary and find out how much you should be spending....although I always thought it was supposed to be one months, not two?

Breakfast at Tiffany's

A vintage Hollywood theme is a super way to make your big day stand out from the crowd, but if you don't want your wedding too be too old-fashioned, check out this gorgeous shoot from Utterly Engaged.  They took inspiration from Breakfast at Tiffany's and brought Holly Golightly firmly into the future, with a fabulous modern twist.

Fabulous Wedding Mossy Monograms

Monograms are a HUGE trend for this year's spring/summer weddings, and I can't get enough of them! They've got to be the easiest way to personalise your wedding, and if you're a font-geek like I am, then you could even tie them in with your stationery. Whether you're going for a shabby chic wedding theme, or a vintage wedding theme, or something a little bit more modern, there's a monogram out there for you. Make your own out of an old cardboard box and a craft knife, or buy them from all the creative gurus on Etsy. These mossy monograms are straight out of Philadelphia, from a boutique called Choosing You.
