REAL WEDDING
Nick & Fliss
Misstomrs had the honour of being guests at the beautiful wedding of Fliss and Nick, on 18th July 2015 at Normanton church, Rutland Water. The service was beautiful and fun just like the lovely couple. This was followed by a lovely reception at Desborough Service club in a fantastically decorated marquee with a delicious afternoon tea. As the sun set, drinks were flowing and so were the tears with the heartfelt speeches. Truly captivating!! Then the party really kicked off with everyone tucking into the hog roast, the cake table and getting up for a good old boogie! The Bride and Groom looked fab, and looked like they had the time of their life and we were so glad to be there and share it with them.

Prezzy box On the rocks, this whisky block is the simple and stylish way to refresh with a Whisky!

Slip it into a spritzer, or an ice cold gin and tonic, this nifty tool is perfect for any tipple! Simply place the silicone mould over the top of the tumbler, fill the glass through the tip of the silicone, store flatly in the freezer for up to 4 hours, remove, and peel back the mould. Serve up a storm with a beverage bonanza, this refined drinking device makes for the perfect stocking filler for any gentleman this Christmas or gift for the Groomsman on his wedding day!

This Smart Phone Projector projects the images onto the wall so you get a much better viewing experience, without the use of wires! Cleverly leaving space to plug your speakers in, the projector helps you create a cinema in your own room! This black and white box has an awesome retro feel to it with an extremely modern twist, therefore making a perfect gift for cinema lovers of all ages! Made from strong cardboard this box can be built up in minutes and has an extendible drawer function that can close, meaning anyone can take it to their friends for a movie night too! Director Katherine ‘beautifully creamy, perfect drink for winter weddings’. Revolutionary new at-home formula makes teeth up to ten shades lighter in just one week Leading teeth whitening specialists at Crystal Smile have unveiled a revolutionary formula that makes even the most sensitive of teeth up to ten shades lighter in a week*; delivering dentistquality results without the expense. Having spent six years perfecting its products in the USA (undeniably the nation of perfect ‘pearly whites’), UK company Crystal Smile has launched Pro-White, an advancement in at-home technology that helps remove stains as well as reducing sensitivity. After prepping with Pro-White (which comes in a lip-gloss like bottle with a wand), teeth respond even better to the whitening gel and Cool Blue LED light applied afterwards, creating a whiter smile as a result. Crystal Smile’s product range includes a peroxide-free kit that guarantees no sensitivity, meaning safe, pain-free whitening is now available to everyone at home for the first time with a more effective two part process. The kits also feature a customisable pair of gum trays similar to those supplied by dental professionals; allowing for the same results whilst avoiding the large overhead costs incurred by visiting the dentist. Given that a whiter smile amplifies a sun kissed tan, not to mention helps the face look younger and healthier, this is the perfect summer confidence-boost, without breaking the bank. Products also include short-term whitening strips, pens and gels (ideal for someone that wants a brighter smile for a one-off occasion) as well as the professional whitening home kits, and start from £12.99. Crystal Smile Co-Founder Akis Zissis says, “Our goal has always been to provide high quality, safe and effective teeth whitening kits at affordable prices. We’ve spent many years working with experts in the USA to perfect this formula, and we’re so confident in it that we offer a money-back guarantee. We also place a lot of importance on after-care, which means being available to offer guidance on the phone, before and after the purchase has been made.” Crystal Smile products are FDA approved and comply with all EU & UK Laws. They can be purchased via www.crystal-smile. co.uk, where a discount code is also available. Crystal Smile experts are happy to offer advice to all customers, and can be reached via 0845 519 4084 or info@crystal-smile.co.uk.

Scalford Hall Hotel, situated in Leicestershire, is a great country house and a perfect wedding venue. They offer exclusive use, set packages or individually priced packages to suit you. The hotel is licensed for Civil Partnerships and Civil Ceremonies - with a variety of function rooms available, each having natural features, high ceilings, plenty of light and offering an exclusive and undisturbed ambience. With its 77 bedrooms, two exquisite bridal suites, new Pavilion (catering for up to 600) and a dedicated team of coordinators, the hotel can host both small celebrations and larger gatherings within its picturesque country house setting, and offers a warm and attentive service, delicious cuisine and a great backdrop for photographs. It is also a fine venue for leisure breaks, special events and conferencing.
We checked in here only for one night but were lucky enough to be in the bridal suite and loved our stay. We had a gorgeous room with views of the countryside which were fantastic. The room had a glamorous feel with the biggest bed and beautiful chandeliers. The bathroom was out of this world with a double shower, free standing bath, TV and very spacious. The lobby was great with huge fireplaces and a grand staircase, the oldie worldly feel was brilliant I felt as though we were back in time. The grounds had a lot to offer including fabulous views and games such as giant chess which we fully enjoyed a game of whilst sipping a few drinks on the lovely summers evening. This is an absolutely wonderful place for dinner too light, fresh and open restaurant with people dressed in everything from jeans to suits. Rather laid back atmosphere although the service is immaculate! We had some delicious food and great experience in the restaurant and can’t wait to return.
