A Valentine's Proposal...

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and we think there's a few of you out there planning to pop the question on the most romantic day of the year. So we've decided to do all the hard work for you and come up with a few proposal ideas just in time for the 14th of February.

Plan Plan and Plan AGAIN - 

I'm sure you don't need us to tell you this, but preparation is KEY. Take it right back to basics and think about places that mean a lot to both of you, places you've loved over your time together or even somewhere you've both always wanted to go. If you don't want to seem over spontaneous and give the game away, try tying the proposal into something you already have planned like a holiday or a day trip.

Say It With Chocolate - 

Give your Valentine a big box of Chocolates as their gift, but first replace one of the chocolates inside with the engagement ring! She won't believe her eyes when she opens the box, and when she says yes you'll both be able to enjoy the chocolate! Everybody wins!

Recreating Your First Date - 

Tell your Valentine you're taking them somewhere special and recreate the first (or a very special) date that the two of you have shared. Perhaps the first restaurant you ever visited, a picnic, or a walk, play the same music and maybe wear a similar outfit. Then tell them it was on this date however long ago that you knew that they would be the person you wanted to marry - get down on one knee and pop the question! 

Make it even more special by creating a photo album of all your favourite memories - don't forget to leave some pages blank for the memories still to come!

Ask Them In Front of A Crowd - 

For the SUPER confident amongst you, proposing with an audience might be right up your street. So if you're planning on going to the theatre for Valentine's Day you may be able to call the theatre in advance and ask if you can propose on stage! (You may have be at least 99.9% sure they will say YES!) If you're other half is big fan of the arts then this may be right up your street - and the cast and crew could even get involved too!

A Jigsaw Proposal - 

This one is our favourite! Give your Valentine a very special puzzle, the whole puzzle can either be the words 'Will You Marry Me?' or just 1 piece can have the special message on it, just make sure you keep that piece for last - otherwise they'll guess straight away!

Don't forget - however you plan on proposing to your loved one, it'll be special no matter what!

Getting Married in 2019?

From colours to flowers, dresses with pockets to unusual entertainment - here's our favourite 2019 Wedding Trends you NEED to know if you're tying the knot this year!

Colour Schemes - 

While pastels and soft pinks are always a popular choice; experts say that bold burgundy, yellows, reds and plum will be seen a lot more this year! Bridesmaid dresses, table centre pieces and flowers will be making more of a statement than ever before with their new bright and vibrant colour schemes. Patterns are also said to be favoured amongst grooms and brides-to-be this year, with tartan, stripes and check featuring in suits, ties, bow ties and handkerchiefs!

The 'Meghan' Effect - 

2018 saw two Royal Weddings for the UK - each one beginning a trend of their very own! Meghan Markle's simple, yet stunning wedding dress may mean that we see brides opting for more classic gowns with fewer embellishments and boat necklines. Both Royal Brides also chose long sleeves which may mean we see more brides wearing gowns of this design!

'Thanks, it has pockets!' - 

'Oh my gosh, I LOVE your dress!' 'Thanks, it has pockets!' Pretty sure we can all relate to this conversation! How do you make a gorgeous dress even more gorgeous? Give it pockets! Yep, that's right, fashion catwalks have been bursting with Wedding Gowns, Bridesmaid Dresses and even Wedding JUMPSUITS that come with handy pockets to keep all those Wedding Day essentials safe! 

Peony For Your Thoughts? - 

Peony's are 2019 flower - there's no doubt about it. Due to them being incredibly versatile, peonies can be added into bouquets that suit any style of wedding, from formal affairs to rustic parties. If you have a late spring, early summer wedding and have your heart set on them then you're in luck, as Peony season runs from April/May to late June. If your wedding is later in the year, then stunning alternatives to Peonies include British Garden Roses for summer or Dahlias for later in the year.

Unusual Entertainment - 

After something a little different to a Photo Booth? From tarot readers to caricaturists, we've found so many unique ways to keep your guests entertained throughout the day! Our favourite has to be a Live Event Artist, they will capture your Wedding Day as it unfolds on canvas right before their very eyes! At the end the day you will have an incredible personalised keepsake of your special day!

Ditch the Plastic - 

After Princess Eugenie's Plastic Free Wedding back in October 2018,  the Eco-Friendly Wedding is a trend that we LOVE and thankfully, the wedding industry is taking notice. The most popular one perhaps being the demise of the plastic straw as thousands of venues, bars and restaurants across the country swap plastic straws to paper or reusable steel ones! Of course, it helps that linen napkins and paper straws look so much prettier than their plastic cousins!

We hope you're bursting with fabulous ideas! Do you have some more than we haven't though of? Why not share some ideas below - and don't forget to share with fellow Brides and Grooms-to-be!
