Ice it up!

So, wait for it….THE SUN IS OUT!  We know, it’s shocking news. We can’t quite believe it ourselves, but in an attempt to welcome the summer sun here is our DIY Edible Flower Ice Cubes video.

Never miss an opportunity to jazz up those summer drinks, be it at your wedding reception, hen party, baby shower or family BBQ.  Simple and quick but super pretty. Check out how we did it in this week’s YouTube video.

For our ice cubes we used Violas and Cornflowers (aka Centaurea Cyanus) – be careful to make sure you are using edible flowers and only the edible parts of the plant, you want your party to be remembered for all the right reasons!

NB. Apologies if we jinxed it and the sun promptly disappears (– Bride Society assumes no responsibility!)

We try out High Street Wedding Dresses…

In today’s video we check out High Street Bridal, starting with Dorothy Perkins.  Does the thought of spending a large sum of money on a dress you’ll only wear once make you a little weak at the knees, give you palpitations or likely to cause your bank manager to give you a withering look?  Then the lower price point of these Dorothy Perkins dresses may be something you should get excited about.

We tried out six of their eight styles for 2017 (purely because the other two were not available in our size at the time, not because we outright rejected them!).  Take a look to see what we thought.

These dresses can be found and purchased on the Dorothy Perkins website. Plus they have photos with actual models!

Getting Crafty! Wedding Decor Ideas: DIY Floral Lettering

Welcome to our first DIY decor video!  Here you see how to make lettering exciting for your Big Day (or special occasion!).  In this video we used Sweet William flowers, which can be easily sourced at Supermarkets and Florists.

We chose to demonstrate using an ampersand, you could place this between you & your spouse on the ‘top table’ or ‘sweetheart table’ for example. Alternatively you could spell out your married name, Mr & Mrs or your first initials.

We found that these cut flowers lasted a good couple/few days once assembled – so no need to be manically running around the day before your wedding with a glue gun!!
