Wedding Dresses 2011

As the end of 2011 comes near, it is hard not to look back at the year gone by. It is with this in mind that I started thinking about my favourite dress of 2011. There have been some very beautiful and grand dresses during 2011. Kate Middleton and Abbey Clancy to name just two. The dress for the Royal wedding was just perfect for the occasion as it was regal and elegant.
However I have to say my favourite dress of this year goes to Nancy Shevell. The new Mrs McCartney looked simply stunning.

www.zimbio.com
Nancy, an American Heiress, looked lovely in her knee length dress. But with her new daughter in law being Stella McCartney, there was no chance of her not looking wonderful.

I know this dress wouldn't be everyones choice due to its simplicity. But I adore it because of that. It suited the bride and the venue and was a perfect choice. By far, my favourite celebrity dress of 2011.

I am looking forward to seeing what 2012 will bring ....

Daydreaming of Summer.....

I know Christmas is looming, but with snow on its way, I am already thinking of the summer/ If you are planning a summer wedding, then have a look at the below for some inspiration.

If you want some alternative seating for your guests then why not make them totally beach-worthy and go for deckchairs. http://www.deckchairhire.com/ Your guests can then relax in style and they will give you the beach theme you are after.

For a sweet treat then Vintage Scoops is simply perfect! http://www.vintagescoops.co.uk/home.html Betty - the ice cream van- will arrive at your event in all her vintage glory. The variety of flavours are fab (mine choice would be banana and butterscotch) and Betty will also serve classic drinks and retro lollies.

For novelty place card holders then these flip flops fit the bill! http://www.kateaspen.co.uk/beachcombers-flip-flop-placecard-holders.html Quirky and cute they will add to your beach theme - even if the sea is nowhere to be seen....

Finally, I adore the Pirate Cupcakes and Mermaid cake from http://www.happy-cakes.co.uk/index.php?/specialoccasions/cat/main_page/ They will suit both the Bride and Groom and will be a talking point amongst your guests. Perfect for a beach theme and will add a splash of fun to your day!
