Personalised Aisle Runners

Ever thought of having your own personalised Aisle Runner in the church or for your civil ceremony?

These can be a real talking point, and also look great in the photos and certainly give your ceremony a very personal touch.

Below are some examples that you can purchase both here in the Uk and USA

White Rose Weddings Recommends Bridal Retailer - Bride and Groom Ltd

This week i would like to recommend Bride and Groom Ltd, they have two branches one in Bromley Kent and the other located in Gravesend.

I have personal experience of the Gravesend Branch as that is where a year ago i purchased my wedding dress just over 1 year ago.
They certainly offer a freindly, personal and professional service and i was really happy with my beautiful dress. The staff were so helpful when it came to choosing a dress. What i find is interesting is how you can enter a shop with a rough idea of the kind of dress you would like, but actually come out finding one that is so not what you expected. I know in my case i had no idea i could look so amazing in a strapless dress!

Talk about choice too, they have on the upper floor a wide choice of dresses from various designers such as Ian Stuart, Ellis, and Justin Alexander. They also stock the range of Alfred Angelo dresses, which i found perfect as you can just select the colour scheme and choose appropriate styles for each one. We all know how difficult it can be to find the right style of dress for our bridesmaids but lets face it not all styles suit all people.

So if your in the kent area, make an appointment and take a look!

High Street & Budget Brides

We all know that when it comes to weddings the price of everything instantly doubles, so its not hard to see why we all look for inventive ways to save money when planning our weddings. With many of us having dreamed of our big day for a long time, one thing we dont wish to compromise on is our dresses, but now thanks to many high street retailers we dont have to. Many of them are working hard to recreate designer dresses so that we may get a beautiful style dress at a budget price.

After the popularity of the royal wedding between Kate middleton and Prince William the demand for a recreation of Kate's bridesmaid Pippa Middleton was such that Debenhams got straight to work.
The dress is £170

The high street store are expecting it to be an instant sell out when it is launched later this year, so to avoid dissapointment they have created a waitling list for this limited addition dress.
They are also looking to launch a version of the emerald green dress that Pippa wore to the evening event at Buckingham Palace.


Another high street store i love is British Home Stores, they have a wonderful range of bridal dresses from as little as £120, i think these photos prove that you do not have to compromise on style being a budget savvy bride.





They also do some lovely bridesmaids dresses for children


And teenagers, we know how important it is for them to look and feel stunning too



So before you rush down to that bridal store on the corner, think twice, your perfect dress may just be closer than you think.
