A New Year and New Ideas
January 4, 2012 · Leave a Comment
Every year millions of people make New Year’s Resolutions with the usual culprits being to give up smoking, get fit, lose weight or start that new career. At the start of every year I always sit down and take a long hard look at my business and decide where I want to take it during the year that lies ahead. It is a time I always look forward to, as it is the one time of year I can indulge myself by delving into my notebook packed with all those ideas I came up with during the course of the previous year. Normally any idea I have is written down and filed away, so that it doesn’t distract... [Read the full story]

Getting down and dirty with your Event Design
January 23, 2012 · Leave a Comment
Image from Martha Stewart Weddings Last week we looked at the steps to take when creating the design for events and we talked about creating a ‘collection‘ in the same way as a fashion designer does.

The Wedding Industry Awards
January 20, 2012 · Leave a Comment
The Wedding Industry Awards took place on Wednesday 18th of January and both Zoe and I attended as representatives for the UK Academy of Wedding and Event Planning (UKAWEP) and what a night it was. The venue, Cafe de Paris, was fantastic and was opulent and visually appealing with a chandelier hanging from the ceiling and cozy booths with velvet interior around the dance floor. It had a real Moulin Rouge feel to it which thrilled me as I have just come back from a mini New Year break in Paris, so this was very apt for me. The event itself seemed to go off without a hitch and was very well organised.... [Read the full story]
