With the average cost of a wedding in the UK thought to be in the region of £20,000, couples are increasingly looking for ways to reduce their wedding spend. Sophie from Bride2Bride has pulled together her top tips to help you save money, without compromising on the detail!
Our friend Mandy at Swingletree China shares her gorgeous Vintage china gallery with us. Like us she is as busy as ever, not only because we're bang in the middle of this year's Wedding Season, but also because Vintage is such a fun way to have a party for brides and hens alike.
Our friends over at Simply Bridal share their tips and tricks for comfortable yet sexy wedding lingerie. Can anyone cram their face with wedding cake whilst wearing a corset? Is it acceptable to wear Spanx on the Big Night?
If anyone has ever had the urge to strip off completely, mount a Boris Bike and fly through the streets of London like a bat out of hell, then now is your chance! This Saturday will see up to 1,000 nude cyclists compete in London's Naked Bike Race, which has been coordinated in order to raise awareness for the need of more tolerance of bicycles on the roads in the city.
Last weekend saw those crazy country-folk enjoying a grate cheese rolling day out in Gloucestershire. Even though cheese is easily my favourite animal bi-product I camembert to think what might happen if one were to sustain a dairy-related injury whilst trying to enjoy a beautiful weekend in the countryside.
Two of our chocolatiers have been dashing around the country over the past few weeks, melting their way into the hearts of many a hen. Such a huge amount of Chocolate Making Workshops has meant that Oli and Coral have both grabbed a golden ticket straight to the top of our Teacher of the Month listing!
What with the Chelsea Flower Show sprouting up into our midst this week, it's got the Polestars office thinking of buds of inspiration for a horticultural hoedown. Short of involving real life hens, I would thoroughly enjoy a spot of garden gnome painting followed by petal pressing my own paper and finishing off with flower arranging.
After a fantastic Girls' Day Out at Kensington Dolls’ House Festival I am now absolutely obsessed with miniature accessories, and get particularly excited when I come across tiny treasures that could be used at our hen parties!
Last weekend saw our first Cupcake Decorating and Vintage Afternoon Tea party of the season. I delight in anything involving a spot of sugar-craft so became rather over-excited when pictures of these sweet treats popped into my inbox on a bleak Monday morning.
What happens when a hen party company (obviously not Polestars) organises a Life Drawing session with just one man doubling as the tutor and the model? Chaos, bad hen-management and things dangling all over the shop, that’s what!
