o, 2013 is coming to an end (already!) and it’s time to look ahead to 2014 and what trends are emerging in the wonderful world of weddings.

ell, we’ve recognised a huge surge in colour. Bright, vivacious, vibrant shades are cropping up all the time and although vintage and shabby chic is still very much ‘current’ we think it’s time to look out for a colour pop in 2014! See page 17 for a gorgeous real wedding and an example of how you can introduce beautiful colour into your big day.

y the time you read this, our wedding event with a difference will be done and dusted so fingers crossed it was a huge success. We’ve got lots more events at the back end of this year so keep your eye out on www. savethedatemagazine.co.uk for more information.

. .PS I love you Save The Date | Issue Twenty

Here, we share a wedding reminiscent of a classic romantic movie. Complete with a beautiful couple, stunning setting and a romantic boating lake (The Notebook style), we just HAD to share this inspirational wedding with you.

It just goes to show that less really is more. With a simple approach, Cat and Tommy achieved a classic, timeless look for their big day and the results speak for themselves. With just fifty guests, the intimate affair took place in a tiny Devonshire village where the bride grew up. Ed Godden captured the day with a unique and creative flair and we think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll agree, this is a wedding with true style.

Getting to know..

Emma Cleveley •

erbyshire based wedding photographer and lovely lady Emma Cleveley is a firm favourite of Save the Date Magazine.

ubbly, friendly and passionate about weddings, we have always been inspired by her style and creativity. Here, she tells us a little bit more about her background and service she offers bride and grooms:

“

I’ve been into photography from an early age but only decided to turn my hobby into a career in 2008. Once I had made the decision I became completely immersed in photography, working every weekend as a second shooter for two years, outside my full time job, just to get experience. Since starting my own business in 2010 I have never looked back, I thoroughly love what I do.

would say my style is pretty eclectic, I love photographs with a vintage feel, but I also love fresh and vibrant photography. For me the most important thing is having fun and keeping it relaxed, if my clients are up for it and want to experiment with more edgy and creative setups then I love that. But I am equally happy staying back and documenting the day as it naturally evolves.

or me it is crucial to get to know my clients well in order to build trust and confidence ahead of the wedding, so I always include a pre-wedding shoot. The pre-wedding shoot is a great opportunity to find out what the couple want and gets them used to the camera. I feel strongly that pre-wedding shoots = relaxed brides and grooms. In addition to this I have a vintage-style photobooth studio that is customised to the theme/ colour-scheme of each wedding. This always goes down a storm with the guests and is a great addition to the party”.

A colour flash wedding takes centre stage

Welcome to the wedding of Liz &Paul:

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

old, daring and different, bride Liz talks us through her wedding planning decisions and gives some great advice about planning your big day:

e looked for a venue for ages, we really wanted a blank canvas so that the styling of the wedding could have centre stage and not compete with existing decor and colour schemes. Then we found Tipi & Kata. We went to one of their open days and fell in love with the intimacy and quirkiness of the tipis. As my parents are lucky enough to have a large garden it seemed like the perfect place to host our amazing day, and at the same time having our wedding at my childhood home gave it extra special meaning for all the family.

ur wedding was bold, stylish, daring and fun. The central theme was black and white stripes.

ersonalisation was important. No one wants an identikit wedding so I spent a lot of time on details. Personalised messages on place names, our grandparents incorporated in lockets onto the cake, a personally created order of service, signs for the garden, and a wedding backdrop banner. I didn't want to go down the shabby chic route as it just doesn't reflect our personalities but there was still a vintage edge with nostalgic elements incorporated.

Save The Date | Issue Twenty

or example I sourced lots of old keys, sprayed them all black and tied them with twine to all the candle holders and jars.

knew I wanted to wear black & white striped shoes long before I had a clue about the kind of dress I might wear! My dress was a Mia Solano dress from a previous season. I felt pretty good in it, thought it could work with the whole scheme of the day, and then set about customising it to make it unique and give it an edge. It was a full length dress and I had been looking for a tea length style so with the help of the amazingly talented and patient Leanne - at Unveiled by Leanne in Grantham, we added the black waist belt, and gulp - cut the front of the dress off!

loved the end result as I had the short flirty fun length at the front -

which meant my shoes had centre stage - and the elegance of the full train adding drama at the back.

created all the details of the day myself, so I spent lots of time art working my stationery, signage, labels, and place names, and sourcing all the little trinkets, ribbons, lanterns, fabrics, lights, bell jars, and details. The sourcing was a truly global operation and I really enjoyed this part.

ur fabulous unique cake was a work of art created by the totally awesome Natalie at Yummy Little Cakes. We discussed ideas together, I sourced lots of trinkets and lockets for the grandparents to be featured in and Natalie put it all together with incredible precision and perfection. All our guests were totally in awe of it, we didn't even cut it as it was just too beautiful!

Save The Date | Issue Twenty

ur bridal tent for the night was provided by Funky Monkey Tents. They were lovely people and their tent was a perfect boudoir for our wedding night.

usic was an important feature in our day. We had friends perform beautiful opera in the church. Our afternoon played out to folk music from the talented duo Malarkey. Our evening band were sensational. We chose rockabilly band The Hound Dogs! They really have to be seen to be believed. Not only do they sound great, appeal to all ages and do a fun & funky repertoire which gets everyone on the dance floor, but they are also bursting with energy, and perform all sorts of crazy stunts which will leave your guests in awe!

inally, we hired a picture blast photo booth for the evening. Once the drinks were flowing all inhibitions went and we have

Save The Date | Issue Twenty

fantastic fun and crazy pictures of all our guests which definitely adds another angle to our memories!

y advice for brides to be out there is have a clear vision of how you want the day to feel and how you want the wedding to look. Creating a mood board is a great way to start, and Pinterest is a great website for early inspiration. Take time to explore - there's so much choice out there, and if you're in need of inspiration and support to come up with a direction, style and theme that is personal to you both, you can always get in touch with me through my new styling business Mad Philomena and we can work together to create the identity and a pull together a strikingly beautiful backdrop to the most amazing day of your lives!

Where to start when styling a country garden wedding With Gemma Morgan from the Wedding of my Dreams to show you how. Anna Clarke Photography

Daffodil Waves Photography

Choosing the venue: If you’re thinking of having a country garden style wedding it is important to choose a venue that’s going to fit with your style. Venues that work well for relaxed country garden weddings are barns, marquees or garden settings. National trust properties make an idyllic setting for a country garden wedding.

Add some colour

Anna Clarke Photography

The lovely thing about country gardens is the mix of colours, if you are having this style of wedding you don’t have to commit to one or two colours only. Having a mix of bright colours works really well in this setting. You could add this into your day through different coloured bridesmaids’ dresses or more subtly through a mix of colourful flowers. Here, Passion for Flowers created a mix of different bridesmaids’ bouquets to reflect the different coloured bridesmaids’ dresses.

Save The Date | Issue Twenty

Lead the way

Anna Clarke Photography

Once guests arrive at your wedding venue, make sure they know where they are going! Hanging signs outside on gates and from trees is a great way to direct your guests. I love this sign saying ‘This Way To The I Do’s’ shown here at Redhouse Barn, photographed by Daffodil Waves. At The Wedding of my Dreams we have a range of directional signs available. The table plan is another feature where you can bring out your theme, set up your table plan in a corner of a room and make a statement of it, style it with jugs and bottles to make it a lovely feature. The Wedding of my Dreams has a whole range of table plans for country garden weddings.

Wedding favours Daffodil Waves Photography

On the table

If you are giving favours perhaps you could make your own jam or chutney and give a small jar to each guest, or scented lavender grain or small bunches of lavender on every place setting would be lovely. You may want to keep it simple and give sweets or chocolates, choosing a lovely favour box will help keep them look in keeping with the style of your day.

Bring the country garden theme through on your guest tables. Over the linen cloth lay a square of hessian or hessian runner and choose between buckets, jugs, milk churns or any quirky containers you can get your hands on for your centrepieces. Ask your florist to use natural country garden flowers, if your venue has a garden ask if your florist can include some of the same flowers that can be found in the gardens this will help the centrepieces look very in keeping and true to the setting.

Around the room You can create real impact as guests walk into the venue by hanging decorations from the ceiling. Paper pom poms, lanterns or long lengths of bunting work really well for this.

"At Shade we are always looking out for new and different things to offer our customers; always keeping in touch with what the top designers have created; always ready to add to our own very unique collection"

ne of our lovely brides recently described her experience at Shade in West Bridgford, Nottingham as ‘exclusive, sophisticated and totally chilled out’, but then she was a little stressed when she first came to see us! Mind you, her description is exactly what we like to think we are. We find that our brides and the mums looking for their outfits too, enjoy the relaxed atmosphere in our first floor bridal boutique. We give them space and time, as well as beautiful dresses of course, and aim to make their buying experience as easy as possible. We want to make sure that a bride looks and feels beautiful on her special day. And the ladies who come looking for a mother of the bride (or groom) outfit, get the same attention to detail. Choosing a wedding gown or a guest outfit should be fun and without worry, and at Shade that’s exactly what we want our client’s experience to be.

or brides, the first appointment is always a time for trying on different styles, seeing what she likes and finding what suits her best. We aim to help our brides choose dresses that will work for them and bring out their best features and make them look and feel simply gorgeous. Sometimes there is a dress that says ‘yes, this is the one!’ but, more often than not, there will be a short-list of two or three. The final decision is all important and, with our experience, we can help in that choice. Our brides come with many different styles of wedding in mind; from vintage in an English country barn conversion, to high church and formal, and also all the way to far-away sunny isles.

lovely (and talented!) seamstresses. This is where, with a few ‘tweaks’ the dress really becomes the bride’s own. And we give the same experience to bride’s or groom’s mums too.

he designers we have chosen to work with each have their own distinctive flavour. Linea Raffaelli, our principle design range in both bridal and occasion wear, comes from Belgium and has a definite Continental flavour. With Wendy Makin gowns, we can offer a sumptuous range of elegance and distinction. Their Couture collection is nothing but special and truly feminine. And our bridal gowns from Bella Donna are a more affordable range - whimsical and romantic in soft, floaty fabrics.

t Shade we are always looking out for new and different things to offer our customers; always keeping in touch with what the top designers have created; always ready to add to our own very unique collection. And from January 2014 we are pleased to announce that mums can buy the sophisticated styles that come from John Charles and also Ronald Joyce.

ppointments are available on most days and at most times to accommodate customer’s busy lives, and popping in to browse first is fine too, it would be great to see you!

nce a dress has been chosen we make sure our brides are completely happy with their choice. It may be that a few changes are wanted, perhaps more sparkle or perhaps less...things can be altered and we can generally accommodate most requests.

The wedding of

Riwiath HBA& Photography Charlie

en and Hannah otherwise known as HBA Photography talk us through a recent wedding they were proud to be involved with:

“

We first met Ria & Charlie back in the of summer 2012 and just knew their wedding was going to be awesome! Not only were they two of the loveliest people we’ve met, but super classy and full of fun! Their wedding was in June, so we met up in May for their pre-wedding photo-shoot and a good old chat about their plans - this really helped them to feel at ease and to get used to being in front of the camera. It was also a great opportunity for Ria to tell us about everything they had planned... the routemaster bus, the flowers, the bridesmaids dresses, their sign making plans.

hen it comes to the day itself, we think it's really important to keep the formal group photos to a minimum - so many of our couples tell us horror stories about being made to wait at weddings for 2 hours while a huge list of formal group photos is completed by the photographer - it doesn't need to be like this guys!! Our advice is to get the most important family groups done at the church and the rest will naturally happen throughout the day, just capturing guest’s being themselves.

fter a few relaxed photos of Ria & Charlie at the church, we all headed back to The Carriage Hall with the guests all hopping on a Routemaster bus for the journey. It’s important to us that we give our bride and grooms photos, not just of people, but of all the finer details – after all, you’ve spent a lot of time and money making the wedding

Save The Date | Issue Twenty

look amazing so you might as well have some beautiful photos of the details to match.

ow, the really important bit – the bride and groom shots! We dragged Ria & Charlie away from their guests (although they didn’t need any encouragement!), we let them chat to each other and relax whilst we’re photographing them having a few intimate moments together from afar, and these make for some of the most beautiful and natural photos.

e love photographing the speeches, everyone is so focused on the speaker that they don't notice us so it's the perfect opportunity to capture some real emotion and the speeches were really entertaining with all sorts of disgraceful stories from Charlie’s best man!

verall it was such a nice day – Ria and Charlie really made us feel like one of the family and we hope we made them feel just as comfortable! We love weddings, and what’s not to love – Beautiful people, nice dresses, great food, champagne, and everyone having an amazing time! The quirkier the better we say, so if you’ve got some amazing ideas for your wedding, don’t be afraid to carry them through – Be yourselves, whatever that may be and the day will be nothing short of awesome!!”

OEHLERS

PHOTOGRAPHY C

apturing your big day and telling its story is vital, if not the most important item on your wedding to-do list. Therefore, finding a photographer who puts you at ease, creates beautiful images (and therefore beautiful memories) who is friendly, approachable and professional is a must ....introducing Oehlers Photography.

professional female wedding and portrait photographer, Cathy Higgins is the woman behind Oehlers Photography. Offering couple’s candid storytelling, with a splash of tradition, complete with an unobtrusive but detailed approach, Cathy can capture every element of your day perfectly.

aving been an avid photographer for years, Cathy branched out into wedding photography after photographing several friend and family weddings; “I have always had a love of photography ever since I can remember, and although originally a teacher, I have always loved documenting interesting and storytelling imagery through the lens, especially on my travels. So, in 2002 I gave up teaching and pursued my passion, as photography was just something I couldn’t get enough of!”

overing wedding photography throughout the East Midlands region, as well as further afield, including destination weddings, Cathy captures the beauty, detail, fun and intimate moments throughout

the day. Standing back and taking in the atmosphere and feel of a couple’s special day, Cathy provides minimal directions, yet ensures the end results are exactly what the couple desires. Husband, Brian, also shoots with Cathy as her assistant and second photographer. With such a team, they can capture moments from different angles, with Brian photographing the groom’s preparations, whilst Cathy remains with the bride.

o ensure Cathy meets all requirements, she offers a consultation within her home studio to showcase her work via portfolios, albums and slideshow on a big screen. She told us: “I absolutely love meeting each couple and discussing what they would like. It gives them a chance to see what I’m like, as well as my work and I can gain a real perspective on how the couple would like to remember their day.”

athy’s work really does speak volumes, with her gallery online showcasing the natural flow of a wedding day, whilst capturing whirlwind moments and details perhaps even the couple didn’t notice.

elcoming enquiries that cover a wide variety of weddings, from the traditional church wedding through to the festivities of an Asian celebration, as well as offering a competitive destination wedding service for those looking to go abroad, ideal for those looking to take away the worry out of their planning, Cathy is happy to discuss your needs and expectations.
