Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Pollen Nation

2011-04-20T11:57:00.017+01:00

Happy Wedding Supplier Wednesday!

Isnt it a beautiful day outside? We have the PERFECT company for you today, the awesome Pollen Nation. Check out the beautiful flowers, what more could you want on a delightful Spring morning!
Lets here what Alison has to say:

I am Alison Trickey and my company is Pollen Nation. I am a florist that specialises solely in my passion of weddings and events. I am based in Shoreditch London, and will travel as far as practical or you will pay me! Website is www.pollen-nation.co.uk

I established the business back in 2004, and Pollen Nation started life as a florist shop in Chiswick before we answered our calling in 2006 to concentrate on weddings and events.

I decided to start my own business as after a career in the Olympic rowing team, I really didn’t want to go for a job interview!

Why am I different? I genuinely love what I do, I have not only a passion for flowers but a passion for people. I enjoy chatting to clients first, then enjoy designing their flowers. I have no pre-conceived ideas for anyone on how their wedding flowers should look, I listen, then create.
Best bit about the working day is the early mornings at the market – yes I am telling the truth! Quiet time, before everyone is up, checking out what would look lovely for my brides.

I work from a large studio in Shoreditch with my boyfriend (OK technically fiance as of a month ago), he does commercials and films in one corner, I create flower mess in the other. I have 2000 sq ft of creating space or dance floor depending on how busy I am. The people at Kew Gardens, Fulham Palace, RSA, The Elvetham and Grays Inn among others love what I do so are delightful enough to pop me on their recommended suppliers list and at the last count I have designed and created personally over 450 weddings countrywide for individual brides with individual styles. More please...:)

WOW is all i can say! Ordering flowers for Easter? I think Alison is your girl! Thank you for allowing us to feature you! We adore your work!

Have a lovely day!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Temple Gregory Wedding Planners

2011-04-13T09:51:00.007+01:00

Happy Wedding Supplier Wednesday!

We hope you have had a good week in the sunshine! Hasn’t it been lovely.

Today we are featuring the awesome Rebecca Gregory of Temple Gregory Wedding Planners, lets hear what she has to say:

When did you establish your business?

I started wedding planning part time over 5 years ago, but took the plunge and went full time, setting up Temple Gregory properly, over 3 years ago.

Why did you decide to start your own business?

I was originally a lawyer and really hated it - I wanted to do something creative, whilst working for myself and starting Temple Gregory was the best decision I ever made. I now LOVE what I do and I could never say that as a lawyer!

Where are you based? (UK location, website etc)

Based in Winchester (Hampshire) and London, but cover weddings throughout the South East. Also do weddings abroad where brides are so inclined :)

http://www.templegregory.co.uk/

How are you different from others offering the same/similar services?

Temple Gregory plans and designs luxury weddings, ensuring that every last detail is meticulously organised and utterly fabulous, so that at the end of it all my couple would not change a thing!

As well as the meticulous organisation and control of all admin and logistical matters, wedding design is also a very important part of what I do. A wedding should run smoothly but also look and feel fabulous and I think that both of these aspects create the perfect day.

I also have great suppliers that I work with who create amazing flowers, stationery, entertainment etc which all really go towards making the day.

What’s the best bit about your working day?

One of my brides said I was like her fairy god mother yesterday - that was nice! Apart from that I love most things - I genuinely love weddings and my brides and could not be happier doing anything else.

I think you can see by the photographs Rebecca certainly knows what she is doing!! For more info check out her blog: http://blog.templegregory.co.uk/

Thanks you for allowing us to feature you!!

If we can help you with anything sparkly drop us an email jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or if you want to feature on our blog email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

Have a nice week!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Wedding Belles of Otley

2011-03-31T13:23:00.009+01:00

Happy Wedding Supplier Wednesday! We hope you are having a lovely week?

We have a treat for you today!! We are featuring the Wedding Ideas Magazine Highly Commended Bridal Shop Wedding Belles of Otley…lets hear all about them:

Having grown up in Oxfordshire, I moved to beautiful Yorkshire seven years ago when I met the man who is now my husband.

I absolutely loved planning my own wedding and particularly enjoyed paying close attention to little details all the way through. All the effort paid off and we had a fabulous wedding day in 2006 that was filled with little quirky touches and details that our guests seemed to love. From my own experiences, I know how wonderfully exciting planning a wedding can be, but also know how stressful the experiences can be.

Having worked previously in the bridal industry, the opportunity came along in 2008 for me to open up a bridal boutique of my own. It was a chance I simply couldn’t pass up!

When I was looking for my own dream dress, I had a wonderful experience in some shops, but visits to other bridal shops were a complete disaster and I became very upset at times with the experiences I received. With this in mind I wanted to make a difference to the bridal buying experience and to create a modern spacious bridal boutique with a cozy relaxed personal service.

So this is where Wedding Belles of Otley was born. We opening our doors on the 6th September 2008 and hit the ground running.

Our bridal boutique is based in a beautiful courtyard just off the Market Place in Otley’s town centre. We are well situated to attract brides-to-be from the nearby towns and cities of Skipton, Harrogate, Leeds and Bradford, but as word of mouth spreads and our reputation builds, we are increasingly seeing brides from much further afield.

We supply some of the most prestigious bridal gowns around from leading award winning designers such as Alan Hannah, Mark Lesley Bride, Mark Lesley Couture, Nicola Anne and Trudy Lee. We will also be adding to our labels in the next few weeks with new gowns from Romantica of Devon.

The collections reflect individuality, grace, timeless elegance and quality. We have excellent relationships with all our suppliers, and hold special designer events through the year where brides-to-be can come along, enjoy a glass of bubbly and nibbles and meet the designer in person to discuses their wedding and ideal dress. We run some great offers to coincide with the events too!!

When a bride-to-be and their family and friends come to Wedding Belles of Otley they are made to feel completely relaxed as they browse through our stunning collections of gowns. We supply refreshments of bubbly, tea or coffee in a relaxed informal atmosphere and we have a large private fitting area where guests can sit comfortably while we focus on the bride-to-be and help her to find her perfect wedding gown – not just the gown they will wear on their big day, but a gown that they will fall in love with!

I am very passionate about what we do here at Wedding Belles and I love to help brides find their dream wedding dress. My main aim is to focus on every single bride and give her the bridal buying experience that she always imagined - delivering a first-class service with close attention to every detail.

Have a nice week.

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Boho Weddings and Events

2011-03-23T09:37:00.016Z

Happy Wedding Supplier Wednesday!

WOW, what a beautiful day! Long may it continue!!!! To add more sunshine to your life, today we are featuring the truly awesome Kelly Hood, the Wedding Planner and Wedding Blogger behind the brilliant Boho Weddings and Events
Lets here what Kelly has to say:

I’m based in Sheffield, and plan weddings across the whole of Yorkshire, Cheshire, Manchester, the East Midlands and Ibiza. Basically within a 2 hour radius of where I live. My blog is reaching right across the world which I’m really chuffed about.

Photographer http://www.devlinphotos.co.uk/

Photographer:http://www.s6photography.co.uk/

I started researching the idea and going on business courses in June 2009, My website went live in December 2009 and I did my First wedding on 29th Dec 2009.

Photographer: http://www.anniepeelphotography.com/

Photographer: http://www.anniepeelphotography.com/

It’s the cliché story…I got married myself and loved the planning process so much that I just didn’t want to let it go. I’d done a lot of event planning for charities before that, so when I was planning my wedding I could see how I could tie the experience from both together. I got made redundant on the last day of my honeymoon, so decided that it was the push that I needed to work for myself. There wasn’t a whole load of jobs in the market place at the time, so I decided to make my own job…………I haven’t looked back since!

I have to admit I have seen a growing number of wedding planners pop up in my area, and across the country, but we are all different. I purposely set out to create and plan weddings for the more unconventional couple, so focusing on the more non-traditional weddings. I have marketed myself that way and luckily I have got a whole host of really wonderful couples to work with.
I also cover weddings in Ibiza, which sets me aside from most wedding planners in this country. People seem to like the fact that they can meet and talk to a wedding planner in the UK who has actually done it themselves.
Also this is my full time job, so I can dedicate myself to my couple 100%. I couldn’t do this alongside another job, it’s all consuming and you need to be totally dedicated.

Photographer: http://www.inthepinkphotography.com/

What’s the best bit about your working day?

Wow that’s a tough question. I love meeting couples for the first time and finding out more about them and what plans they have, I’m a people person so love the fact that I can talk about weddings all day! I also love the creative elements of my job, coming up with new ideas for my couples, sourcing new inspiration. I love meeting them at the venue and brainstorming with them, I do go off into my own little wedding bubble! I also love the actual planning, tacking a list of things the couple need to do and break all the jobs into monthly to do lists……I’m very structured and live my life on a constant time line (I know how sad) so I love implementing some sort of order into other people’s lives.
But the best bit has to be watching the couple get married, after all that is what it is all about. Being present at someone’s wedding really is such a special privilege!

Photographer: s6photography.co.uk

Photographer: S6photography.co.uk

I work with all sorts of brides with a variety of budgets ranging from £2K - £40K. I have a huge range of services starting with the Boho Hour, going up to the Boho planning workshop, design and styling service, guest management, supplier search, venue search, on the day co-ordination, the rescue remedy, partial planning and full co-ordination. So anyone can use a planner it isn’t just for the rich and famous.
The venue search, on the day co-ordination and partial planning are the most popular.
I am about to launch a selection of other services in the next few weeks, including photo booth hire, and a DIY making service……….watch this space.
And as for the blog my numbers have been growing well over the last few months so I feel I am now ready to take on sponsors, again watch this space!

Photographer: http://www.lisaabbottphotography.co.uk/

WOW - we just LOVE Kelly's work. Thank you so much for allowing us to feature you on the blog! The Boho Website can be found HERE and the incredible blog HERE.

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Janet Mohapi-Banks Sculptural Cake Design

2011-03-09T09:58:00.010Z

HAPPY WEDDING SUPPLIER WEDNESDAY!

Isnt the sunshine beautiful! I hope its as bright where you are as it is in Hatton Garden today - truly stunning!! For those of our readers who have decided to give up cake for Lent - look away now as we have a mighty fine Supplier today who might cause you a few problems!Introducing Janet Mohapi-Banks of Janet Mohapi-Banks Sculptural Cake Design. Lets hear more of what Janet had to say:
What do you do?

We are an award-winning company that specialises in creating luxury bespoke cakes for Weddings and other celebrations. Following a private consultation, all our cakes are designed and handmade to order using the finest ingredients available. Where possible, these are local, organic and / or fair-trade. We are recommended by some of the countries leading hotels and wedding venues including The Ritz London, The May Fair Hotel and The Dorchester and have appeared in the country’s leading wedding magazine and on national television. In short, Janet Mohapi-Banks Sculptural Cake Design provides cakes of excellence for discerning clients.

Where are you based?

Based in Epsom but working predominately throughout London and Surrey we offer our services to all corners of the UK. More details can be found on our website: http://janetmohapibanks.com or by calling us on 07725 578450.

When did you establish your business?

Janet Mohapi-Banks became a limited company in August 2009 after several years of creating cakes for family, friends and friends of friends.

Why did you decide to start your own business?

My cake business really started when my daughter turned 4. I made and decorated a figure 4 cake for her with sugar flowers and bugs on it. Friends saw the cake at her party and asked me to make cakes for their children’s parties. In turn, their friends saw the cake and asked me to make the cake for their children and before long the demand for my cakes was increasing so much that it just made sense to turn my paid hobby into a proper business.

How are you different from others offering the same/similar services?

Our service differs from that of other people in our field, not only in the exquisite cake design and immaculate finish, but also in the personal customer care offered. Your wedding day is a very exciting and special time in your life and we want to help make every aspect of it as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. To this end we always travel to you for consultations and meetings and get to know you as the unique people you are. During the meeting where you have the chance to try some cake flavours, we design the cake together using samples of the dress, invitations, flowers or anything else that you would like to use to influence the design. This ensures that you are 100% happy and get a perfect and unique cake for your wedding as I believe that every wedding cake should be as unique as you are. Once your booking is confirmed you receive a sketch of your wedding cake to keep as a special memento of the joy of organising your wedding. Before the big day, we liaise with you, your venue or wedding planner to organise the delivery and set-up arrangements ensuring that you don’t need to worry about a single aspect of your cake.

What’s the best bit about your working day?

I can honestly say that I enjoy every aspect of my working day. From meeting with clients and designing the cake, to baking the cakes and creating the delicate adornments such as sugar flowers, models and elegant piping; every part of creating a fabulous and unique cake fills me with joy and excitement.

SERIOUSLY - how gorgeous are these cakes!! Get yourself over to Janets website for more cake treats!

Remember, if we can help you with any bespoke jewellery email us on jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk and if you want to appear on our Wedding Supplier Wednesday email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

Have a lovely day!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Cards by Sophie

2011-03-02T13:54:00.022Z

HAPPY WEDDING SUPPLIER WEDNESDAY!! We hope you have had a good week?

Today we are featuring the lovely Sophie from Cards by Sophie…who we couldn’t speak more highly of! Lets see what she has to say:
Who are you?

Hi, I’m Sophie from Cards by Sophie, we make wedding stationery from the early stages of save the dates right up to your wedding day and beyond with order of service, table plans, thank you cards and much more.

What do you do?

I’m the owner, chief designer and card maker at CBS HQ! I’m the main person here, so whenever you email or call, you will always deal with me directly. I have a few behind the scenes helpers too now, worth their weight in gold in the busy periods.

Where are you based?

I’m based near Manchester, but ship throughout the UK and worldwide too!
My website is www.cardsbysophie.com, facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cards-by-Sophie/142025875832 and twitter www.twitter.com/cardsbysophie

When did you establish your business?

I started my business in 2009, firstly part time and went full time in May 2010. Can’t believe how quickly the time has flown!
I was under the threat of redundancy from my old job, which used to be in the construction industry would you believe! I have always been creative and my old job wouldn’t let me be at all which I hated. I made my own website while I was working out my final months at work. It was originally meant to be part time, but I’ve been so busy I am lucky to be able to run CBS full time from home. People now say to me ‘I always thought you should be doing something creative’ and know I’m in my dream job, which I totally agree with!

How are you different from others offering the same/similar services?

I offer a completely personal service. As I mentioned earlier you will deal with me, I’ve had a lot of really positive comments about the excellent customer service I provide. I like to do this and get to know my clients as much as possible so I can create their ideal stationery. I am always prepared to go the extra mile, whether it be searching for that perfect shade of ribbon, or new item that someone would like to try (that’s where my cheque book invitations came from!), to a completely bespoke design. I want to make life easier for my couples rather than a nightmare to find the right thing.

What’s the best bit about your working day?

Every day for me is completely different, it’s actually quite difficult to predict what’s going to happen and set a plan of what I want to do each day or week! I really enjoy making the stationery itself, it sometimes takes a long time to get to that point with all of the admin etc that you need to do first. I also love dealing with my clients, I’ve built up some really great relationships with previous clients, after all you get to be a part of their special day.

I offer a 10% discount on orders over £300 as standard. You can also purchase a sample for just £1 through our website. We’ve recently introduced a bespoke design service which is becoming really popular. We like a challenge so don’t be afraid to ask!

SURELY THATS AN OFFER YOU CANT MISS! Get yourself over there now!

Thank you so much for allowing us to feature you on the blog Sophie!

Dont forget to check back for more JKD sparkles later this week!

Have a nice day!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Joyce Connor of Brides and Beauty

2011-02-09T09:48:00.009Z

HAPPY WEDDING SUPPLIER WEDNESDAY!
Boy do we have a treat in store for you today, with the gorgeous and wonderfully talented Joyce Connor, who is a Make Up Artist and Beauty Therapist based in Reading Berkshire. Lets hear what the lovely lady has to say:

My business was established in 2006. But I have 15 years experience. I started my business because I wanted to offer great customer service and only use quality brands I didn’t feel that was the case at the salon I was working in. I knew I could offer a better service so I took a leap of faith and did it. I love quality brands and I knew customers did too!

I am one of only a few companies that offer the full range of Beauty and Bridal services to customers in there wedding venue. I also cater for all skin tone and hair types.

I love creating the look the Bride has asked for and then watching her walk out the room to meet her groom. I’m the last supplier the Bride see’s before she gets married
I love doing bridal hair and make up it’s the best thing in the world. My advice to brides is to book at least 6 months before the wedding day so I can get their skin to its optimum hydration and ready for the make up application on the wedding day. For brides that are getting married abroad I can do make up lessons and help with the make up shopping too. If you’re a bride that doesn’t normally wear any make up it would be a good idea to wear some, especially for the photos. Camera flashes can drain the colour from your face so some make up will add a bit of colour to enhance your look. Don’t overdo the make up either on the day you still want to look like you but just an enhanced version of your normal self. Don’t forget about you hair too. Have conditioning treatments before the wedding so that it’s gorgeous. If you’re growing your hair for the wedding still have it trimmed every six weeks to remove any split ends and promote healthy growth! Hair up do’s mean no conditioner on the day and washing your hair the night before so that your hair stays up all day long.

For more helpful tips visit Joyce's Website@ www.bridesandbeauty.co.uk and Blog: www.skinandmakeupblog.com and if you want to book this super duper lady get in touch quick!
Thank you so much for allowing us to feature you!!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Olivier Laudus Boutique

2011-02-02T09:45:00.010Z

HAPPY WEDDING SUPPLIER WEDNESDAY! we hope you have had a lovely week so far?

Today we are featuring the amazing Olivier Laudus online wedding accessory boutique (www.olivierlaudus.com) offering luxury wedding accessories ranging from unique personalised wedding ring cushions to stylish bridal bags, jewellery, tiaras, headbands, decorative hair combs, flower clips, heart-shaped umbrellas and lots more! We caught up with Sangeeta Laudus, co–founder and manager of the day to day running of the business with her husband – Olivier Laudus – who the business is named after. Here is what she had to say:

I worked in the city as a finance lawyer for 14 years first in one of the large law firms and then in-house in an investment bank, but had been involved with the business since it was launched. I decided to come on board full-time last year to help Olivier grow the business and have loved every minute of it!

I mainly take care of our Boutique Collection of accessories and also meet clients for style consultations. Having loved accessories since I was very young, it’s a real pleasure to help brides pick pieces that suit them or make suggestions about pieces they might not have thought of. I think it’s all about finding the right balance and harmony between the jewellery, headpiece and the wedding dress as well as making sure the bride’s individual style shines through!

We are an online boutique (www.olivierlaudus.com) but our office is in North London and we also have use of a studio in Central London where we meet brides for style consultations.

We set the business up in 2004 with a unique collection of handmade wedding ring cushions which were showcased at the National Wedding Show at Olympia. The idea of creating a luxury ring cushion collection came simply because when we got married in 2002 we were unable to find a stylish cushion to present our wedding bands on. The collection was designed by Olivier, with cushions retailing around £70 to reflect the work that goes into them as each is individually hand beaded. Last year we launched a lower-priced collection faithful to the original concept of style and luxury but with simpler designs inspired by the vintage trend.

Olivier is an irrepressible entrepreneur and loves the thrill of running a business but the original reason we set up Olivier Laudus was because we fell in love with the ring cushion we had commissioned for our own wedding and wanted to share it with others.

We have been in the business now for coming up to 7 years so hopefully can share our experience and passion for what we do with our clients. We are also very customer focused and client care is really important to us and seems to be something the clients appreciate from all the testimonials and thank you cards we receive – one lady (the mother of the bride) even sent us a piece of wedding cake which I thought was a lovely gesture and well received.

The best bit about our working day: The variety is fantastic: running your own business you get involved in every part of it from processing and packing orders to dealing with magazines and writing expert articles so no two days are the same. I also love the client contact part of the job helping brides finding perfect accessories for their big day either on the phone or in person!

What a LOVELY couple - working together to achieve a shared goal. Something we appreciate over here at JKD! Thank you so much for allowing us to feature your awesome company!

If you would like to get in touch with with Sangeeta or Olivier or for more information, the full collection can be seen at www.olivierlaudus.com or call them on 020 8374 1239.

If we can help you with any bespoke Jewellery email us on jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or if you would like to feature on our Wedding Supplier Wednesday email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

Have a GREAT Wednesday and dont forget to check back Friday for some beautiful sparkles!

HAPPY WEDDING SUPPLIER WEDNESDAY!! we hope you are all having a lovely week? Today we are featuring the truly incredible Mark Colombus from Mark Colombus Photography, a Wedding photographer and specialist in contemporary photojournilism, based in London (but cover's the whole of the South East and further afield if needed)

Marks work speaks for itself, but lets here what he has to say:

I've always been in love with photography, a few years ago I was asked to photograph a friends wedding, I prepaid myself and totally enjoyed myself, I was actually surprised how much I loved photographing there wedding. So a couple of years ago I started up part time and have been building up ever since and now I have enough weddings booked for 2011 to be able to go full time YAY!!

I like to think of myself as the hassle free photographer - I know when organising a wedding it can be stressful with all the choices of photographers out there and then each photographer has all these different packages. NOT ME, I have the one price for me for the day, the client gets all the images edited in high res so if they want to print them there selves they can, simples, no hassle.

What’s the best bit about your working day?

This is a tricky question, I love it all! If I had to pick out a few moments that happen from every wedding that take my breath away they would be 1. The transition of the brides state of mind in the seconds leading up to and getting into her dress, I always find this a magical moment. 2. The 1st time the groom see's her, you know the moment, when he turns around and see's her walking down the aisle, his eyes widen and that nervous smile comes across his face. Its these micro expressions that are gone with in the blind of a eye, these are the moments of the day I love, and love to capture.

(erm - how cute is this!)

I'm currently giving away a amazing prize, a photoshoot worth £400. This is a great prize, they will be pampered and made up by a professional make-up artist, you will also be offered food and a few glasses of bubbly too. After the shoot you will receive the images in high resolution ready for you to print and a 20”x30” framed art canvas image of your choice. More info can be found on my blog http://www.markcolombus.com/go/prize/

With images like the above - I would get in quick on the competition! It looks amazing! For more of Mark's work check out site: www.markcolombus.com Blog: www.markcolombus.com/blog or call him on ph 07872 040 741

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Karen Segal

2011-01-19T14:04:00.007Z

Happy Wedding Supplier Wednesday! We hope you have had a lovely week so far! Today we are featuring the wonderful freelance Hair and Nail professional Karen Segal, who has been in the industry for in excess of 35 years, based in Berkhamsted Herts. Over to you Karen....

I decided to start my own business approximately 15 years ago with the encouragement of some very dear friends, who I thank to this day for the support they gave me. Without them I doubt I would have done it. I have managed to maintain a steady stream of clients ever since.

Having had so many years in the industry and following up with refresher training and having a keen eye for fashion trends I feel I can offer a personal service with honest opinions and suggestions on how best to achieve the goals my client desires; this honesty has both gained me clients and lost me a couple as I believe that being an independent is all abut your last job, if that is not a good reflection of my work I won't do it.

The best bit about my day is the end; when I can sit down and feel like I have achieved job satisfaction on a job well done

So ladies - do you need a manicure to show off your new piece of JKD sparkle? Karen is your lady! Drop her an email on karensegal@btconnect.com to make an appointment.

Have a nice day and check back on Friday, we have a real treat for you!

JKD

Oh yes - Valentines day!

2011-01-14T12:03:00.000Z

Yes boys - Valentines day is JUST around the corner!! ONE MONTH TODAY!

And just think about how your girlfriend/Fiance/Wife spoiled you rotten over Christmas! Doesnt she deserve a treat? Well - you know what they say,

Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend!!!

Why dont you treat her to an awesome JKD gift voucher this year? The lady in your life will get to spend the day looking around a Diamond Polishers Workshop and be shown the tricks of the trade, and then design her very own piece of jewellery upto the value of your choice. It couldnt be easier! and believe me - she will love you forever!!

Or - do you know already what you would like to buy her? Is she a HUGE fan of Sex and The City (lets face it, what girl isnt!) and would she like her very own Black Diamond, just like Carrie Bradshaw? Well, how about these stunning Black Diamond Stud Earrings? Sure to bring a smile to every girls face?

Whichever way, we can help you make her VERY happy! and thats what you want, surely!

So, email me on jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or call 07904123297 and book your appointment NOW!

Look forward to hearing from you!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Common Farm Flowers

2011-01-12T14:22:00.010Z

Happy Wedding Supplier Wednesday!

We hope you are all having a good day? We have a bit of a different Supplier for you today, with the lovely Georgie from Common Farm Flowers....and we cant wait for her to tell you all about it!

We are a 7 acre smallholding in South East Somerset which we are gradually turning over to the production of flowers for cutting. We grow a huge variety of wonderful flowers which we cut to order and make up into bouquets and posies which we post throughout the UK 12 months a year. We also supply weddings. We grow our flowers organically though we can't run to organic status yet but hope too soon.

Our business is not yet a year old though we've been making bouquets and selling sweet peas as a hobby for several years. We decided to start the business because we couldn't grow enough sweet peas to satisfy the demand from our barrow and honesty box outside the house and because when I was sent a bouquet of home-grown roses through the post by somebody else I looked at them and thought 'I could do better than that!' We are different from other florists/flower farmers in that we are both. We bring our creative flair to our planting. We grow flowers for their fragrance and their beauty, not for their ability to survive a week in cold storage.

Our flowers are picked to order so they are as fresh as they can possibly be when they arrive with the client. We do not buy anything in. Everything we use is grown by us at Common Farm.

The best bit about my working day is when I can escape outside to the flower fields. Today we planted twenty rose bushes which I ordered back in September. We'll be cutting them for posies and weddings this coming summer. I used to work in fashion in Paris, then I became a novelist. Now I'm a flower farmer and florist. My mother arranged flowers at the Dorchester Hotel in the 1960s and her garden's now listed in the Yellow Book. I like to think that there's a green fingered gene which the scientists have yet to identify. And that I could fashionista and write until I was blue in the face: in the end it was my fate to end up growing flowers to cut for my own floristry business.

Isnt this a brilliant little company?? Wishing you the Best of luck with it Georgie! For more info on Common Farm Flowers check them out on FACEBOOK.

If you would like to appear on our Wedding Supplier Wednesday then please email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk. If we can help you with any bespoke jewellery please email jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or call 07904123297.

Have a nice week!

2011-01-07T14:29:00.006Z

HAPPY FRIDAY! We hope your first week back at work in 2011 hasnt been too painful and you are looking forward to the weekend!

Seeing as this is the year of the Royal Wedding, today we thought we would share some beautiful Sapphires with you!

You too can own a gorgeous Engagement ring, just like Katherine Middleton, and another of our very lucky customers who received this beauty last year!

These are just stunning and catch the light so beautifully! They are here in the JKD office waiting to be mounted into a piece of jewellery of your choice....so give me a call on 07904123297 or email jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk to make an appointment!!!

Have a nice weekend!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Sienna Grace Design

2011-01-05T14:32:00.011Z

HAPPY WEDDING SUPPLIER WEDNESDAY - THE FIRST OF 2011!! eekkk how exciting is that!

We are thrilled to be featuring the lovely Leeanne Andrews of Sienna Grace Design, who is a venue stylists based in the Midlands.
Lets hear what she has to say:

We offer for hire chair covers, table centrepieces and other special decorative touches. As well as hiring from us we also offer a full bespoke service where we will visit the chosen venue with the bride and groom and run through how they envisage their day looking and we will talk and advise how our designs could work with their vision. We are soon going to be hiring out vintage photo style booths too! There’s lots still to come from us!

We are based in the West Midlands and our services stretch out throughout the Midlands and surrounding areas. You can find us online via our website www.siennagracedesign.com we are also on Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001717036880 and Twitter http://twitter.com/#!/SiennaGDesign . You can also visit our blog http://siennagracedesign.blogspot.com/

The business was established late summer 2010. Prior to this i had spent a lot of time researching the market and looking for a way i could offer something different. We didn’t want to go into this without being able to offer something unique.

I wanted to do something that allowed my creative side to run free whilst fitting in around family life. Owning my own business allows me to stay at home and bring up my daughter and fulfil my own personal goals. I love it, late nights and all!

We try to be unique. For example we offer chair covers for hire but we offer paper flower chair dressings as an alternative to organza sashes. Most of our designs and decor will involve the use of paper flowers which are all handmade in house. We also sell paper pom poms which are proving to be highly popular. These are a fun and modern alternative to balloons and can really transform a room. We are constantly looking for new and exciting ideas and have quite a few in the pipeline! We are try to put our twist on everything we do.

The best bit about my working day is definitely seeing the venue all dressed and perfect. It’s when you can really see the efforts of all your hard work and it’s the part that makes me love what i do.

How lovely, thank you for allowing us to feature you on our first blog of 2011!

If we can help you with any bespoke jewellery please email us on jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or if you would like to feature on Wedding Supplier Wednesday email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

Have a lovely week!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Your Wedding at Loch Lomond

2010-12-15T10:42:00.006Z

HAPPY WEDDING SUPPLIER WEDNESDAY!

sorry for the lack of blogs this week - its a bit crazy in JKD land finishing all our Christmas orders! Normal blogging service should resume ASAP!

in the meantime, we wanted to share another brilliant Wedding Supplier with you, and they dont come much nicer than Kirsteen & Colin from Your Wedding at Lock Lomand.
Your Wedding at Loch Lomond is an on-line wedding directory for brides and grooms to be getting married at Loch Lomond in Scotland. We are free to use and free to advertise in (providing the supplier can provide to Loch Lomond).

The idea for our directory was born several years ago and we registered several domains then. We spent time meeting with local suppliers to find out what they wanted from a directory. We found that many new and small businesses in particular struggled to find customers due to very high advertising rates in magazines, newspapers and other websites. We came to the decision that our on-line directory would be free to advertise in, and that each interested advertiser would be offered the same advert. Photographer provided by www.ciaphotography.co.uk

Our not for profit directory went live in June 2010 with just a few suppliers. Now, at the end of the year, we have grown to offer a wide variety of suppliers as well as regular discounts, a discussion forum and wedding fairs.

We also have a blog where we offer additional advice and support as well as interviews and submissions with a variety of wedding suppliers. We also keep our suppliers and brides to be updated through regular email newsletters, our Facebook page and Twitter account.

Our aim of making the directory 'everyone's directory' has been achieved. Its demonstrated by the fact that many advertising requests come from wedding suppliers who have been speaking to our listed suppliers. We do appreciate our suppliers spreading the word and helping with recruiting other suppliers! Many suppliers have become friends with each other, recommending each other, purchasing from each other etc. We love it! Photographer provided by www.ciaphotography.co.uk

We have made so many friends from our suppliers and received support from many experienced and respected wedding professionals and from other wedding directories

Highlights of this year have included being nominated for six awards, such as 'best business support' and 'best supplier directory'. We've been mentioned in local and national newspapers and bridal magazines. We are also currently on the list of “Top 100 Wedding Tweeters”.

Next year we shall be running a few wedding fairs to allow our brides and grooms to be to meet our suppliers face to face. We also have a first edition brochure with our suppliers' details which is available at our fairs and on our supplier premises.

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Unique Wedding Planning!

2010-12-08T13:30:00.016Z

HAPPY WEDDING WEDNESDAY!

So - it would appear the snow has gone (for most!) and its back to business....and today we have a lovely Wedding Supplier for you.Joy Hersey-Todd, of Unique Wedding Planning, is 46 years old and has had a successful 20 year career in Client/Event Management. Lets hear what Joy had to say:

I am passionate about service and I have won many awards for excellence. I love to work with people & work closely with the couple to understand their needs and only builds proposals that truly reflect them. I have a reputation for being a great listener, always available and happy to talk through any detail at any time. Whether dealing with a venue/supplier or a difficult situation, I am aware that I am representing you and you can rely on my professionalism at all times

I'm a Wedding planner & the founder of Unique Wedding Planning. I've been able to complement my skills above with study at the UK Alliance of Wedding Planners, where I am also an Associate Member. In an unregulated industry, I think it's important to work in an ethical way & being a part of the UKAWP gives a couple a guarantee that I subscribe & work to a code of ethics. I am known for having a great eye for detail & being creative, but also, due to my operational background I am methodical in my approach. This has enabled me to be able to co-ordinate events of any shape and size and execute them flawlessly.

You can find me on www.uniqueweddingplanning.co.uk or through facebook. I live in Sheffield where we are fortunate to be surrounded by fabulous venues & history. There are so many castles & wonderful Unique buildings to choose from. I mainly cover North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and Derbyshire. Within these areas I have a first rate knowledge of venues & suppliers and I have carefully selected a base of reputable, like-minded associates who are known for delivering excellence, quality of service and innovation in their field. I am able to secure the best prices from them & I do not work on a commission basis. As you would expect however, I am flexible in my approach and I have the skills to find new suppliers if your theme or budget dictates it.

My business was established in the Summer of 2009, although prior to this I had managed many corporate events & personally supported the most valued customers in a number of businesses.

I took redundancy in the summer of 2008 & spent a long time researching industries & roles that would utilise the skills & knowledge that I've acquired over the years. I'm also a person that loves to be with people, I enjoy helping them & thrive on pressure. In this climate there aren't many roles that fulfil this criteria, but Planning Weddings for time constrained couples is a perfect match !

Here at Unique,I offer a full range of services for stylish couples who wish to create and experience a truly bespoke, fun and memorable occasion for both themselves and their guests, whilst eliminating the stress, family tensions, constant emails, phone calls and over 200 hours worth of work, associated with planning the most important day of their lives. If you have demanding lifestyles & don't have the time, don't live where you are planning to get married, or just don't know where to start, I can help.

I believe that a Unique Venue will make the world of difference to how you remember your wedding day & whether you want to say your vows in a stately home, a boutique or country hotel, a castle, a museum or even at the local church, my aim is to ensure that your wedding day is a flawless execution of the dreams and aspirations that you have for it. I guarantee that your day will be Unique, created and managed for you. It will be your day, reflecting your personality, it definitely will not be replica of someone else's .......it will be yours, exactly the way you wanted it to be.
I work with some of the North's top suppliers & I have working knowledge of some of the very best venues.

Meeting new couples at one of the most exciting times of their lives. Finding them the venue of their dreams & creating an experience for them that will stay with them always.They will remember their wedding day forever & I will ensure that it is for the right reasons. My job is also very varied & allows me to work on many exciting things & at some wonderful venues. I'm currently putting together a " Win a Wedding " competition, where one lucky couple will win over £7,000 worth of wedding supplies, including their ceremony & drinks reception at the fabulous Ripley Castle. Join us on Facebook for further details.

I offer a free consultation & from that the couple will receive a bespoke proposal. It's theirs to keep & enables them to see if I've understand their brief. I'm happy to work anywhere.. give me a call today on 07896 661765.

Thank you SO MUCH for allowing us feature you on the blog!! and what are you waiting for! Give Joy a call today!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - DOUZO

2010-12-01T12:09:00.012Z

HAPPY WEDNESDAY!

We hope you are enjoying the snow as much as we are? why no wrap up with a hot chocolate and have a read of our brillant Wedding Supplier Wednesday, this week featuring the lovely Melita of DOUZO.
Lets here all about what they do:
I'm Melita and I'm one half of the partnership that set up and runs DOUZO. Outside DOUZO, I am a mum of two and I like to read, run, and cook. I am insatiably curious about all things to do with people and their significant life events. This is my first jump into business and I'm loving it. There's lots to learn, that's for sure, but I wouldn't have it any other way now.
DOUZO is a website where you can set up and share a wish list for any occasion and any type of gift. Make it personal with photos and your choice of list design then share it with anyone you want, anywhere in the world.
We've only been operating since September 2010. We registered the business a year ago but it took us a while to pull the site together and decide to take the plunge.
DOUZO came out of the frustration of knowing what gifts we really wanted or needed, but being restricted on how we could share our wishes with friends and family. We had to pick affordable gifts from only one or two major stores, or we had to make an impersonal request for cash. Neither option gave us or our friends the right kind of freedom.

So we decided to make a place where the only limit on the type of gift would be our imagination. A place where friends and family could choose what they gave and where there could be something to fit every budget. A place where it would be easy to create a list and easy to buy from a list. It would be easy to see at any time what had been purchased and to know who gave what. That place became www.douzo.co.uk.! We found we could use a list for many different occasions. Weddings and birthdays were obvious choices. But what about baby showers? Christenings? Anniversaries? Christmas? Coming of age ceremonies? Fund-raising? Getting kitted out for a gap year or University? Collecting props for a local theatre event? Getting pledges of help for someone in need? Pretty much, if you can imagine it, you can list it.

A key difference about us is that you can mix any type of gift on a single DOUZO list. You can include items from absolutely any store, site, or stall. You can collect money towards something really special. You can even ask for favours or pledges of help that might cost nothing but still make a big difference to the recipient. Another bonus is being able to ask someone to manage the list on your behalf. You set up your list, then your list manager handles the rest. This is proving welcome with couples preparing for a wedding. It makes life easier for them and also keeps an element of surprise about what presents have been chosen.

The best bit of our working day is interaction with people. DOUZO is online so I don't get to see many people face-to-face, but I love the conversations that pop up on Twitter, Facebook, and in emails. I really enjoy reading about other people's celebrations and products and there are so many inspirational businesses out there. I like hearing how people are using a list and thinking about the special event that it's marking in their lives. It's great to discuss new ideas and learn more about what hits the spot and what doesn't work so well.

You might wonder about our name. Why "DOUZO"? Our name comes from a Japanese word. Its exact meaning varies in translation but it comes across as "please", "help yourself" or "by all means". We like it and hope it's easy to remember.
One other thing is that we're running a welcome offer until the end of the year. Using the code WELCOME gets you 10% off your first list. This will give you a list for as little as £9. With Christmas coming soon, it would be a great way to try us and get more of what you really want this year.

THANK YOU so much for allowing us to feature your wonderful new company - we wish you lots of luck with it!

ENJOY THE SNOW everyone and check back Friday for a VERY exciting update from JKD!

Have a nice week.

Diamond Friday!

2010-11-26T09:41:00.006Z

Happy Friday - we hope you have had a lovely week and are looking forward to the weekend??

Today we are sharing with you a stunning Princess and Brilliant cut Bracelet. This really is beautiful - and was given to a very lucky lady as a 'Push' present! For those who dont know what that is (and i was one of them!) its an American tradition to have Diamonds waiting while a woman is giving birth as an 'incentive'! This is a tradition i think most woman would appreciate in England - dont you!?

Gorgeous 8.2ct Diamond Bracelet

Serious Bling!! Congratulations to the lucky lady in question - on both the birth or your baby and for this stunner!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Modern Photographic

2010-11-24T12:25:00.020Z

HAPPY WEDDING WEDNESDAY!

Today we are featuring the wonderful Essex based Julia West (some people still know her as Julia Ford, as she is still in the process of changing her name after her wedding in July!), who is the wonderfully talented Art Editor at WEDDING magazine and one half of modernphotographic.co.uk with her hubby Ian. Ian is also a celebrity portrait and event photographer.
Lets hear more from Julia:

I started in 2004, mainly second shooting but I set up the name and covered smaller weddings. My husband Ian joined the business last year in 2009

I had always had an avid interest in photography, since studying it at A Levels. With my design degree I still was able to do it to some extent. It wasn't until friends were getting married and they told me at the time the choice was mainly traditional. Only 6 years later there is lots more choice which is great and helps the industry strive to get better and more diverse

Firstly experience and knowing the industry. Ian has been a highly respected professional in the celebrity event circuit for over 25 years, I spend my days selecting real life weddings so I constantly see the latest ideas from weddings across the world. We put this together with a package that covers everything you could want. We also offer what we believe to be our unique client download gallery. All our couples receive a high res CD of full edited imagery. However we also upload a selection of these onto a gallery that your guests can download for themselves!

The best bit to my working day is the variety. I'm often asked how I juggle it all but I'm very fortunate enough to work on one of the best glossy bridal magazine's WEDDING. I deal with everything from photoshoots to selecting real life weddings, all to make sure the magazine looks stunning. I combine all this knowledge with my wedding photography clients, who I only take a select number on a year to ensure I can give them as much time as they deserve. I couldnt give up either!

Julia and Ian are such a lovely couple! To find out more about there own Wedding (and to be nosey!) it is featured in WEDDING this issue (December/January) and a grab of the pages is on there blog: http://modernphotographic.blogspot.com Im sure you can see from the images what an amazing couple they make! THANK YOU so much for allowing us to feature you on the blog!

Contact Julia either via the WEBSITE, BLOG, or on (e) julia@modernphotographic.co.uk (t)07747 114424

If we can help you with any bespoke jewellery email jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or call 07904123297 or if you would like to feature on our WSW feature email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Weddings by Design

2010-11-17T09:50:00.008Z

HAPPY WEDDING WEDNESDAY!

There is lots of excitement in Wedding World at the moment due to the announcement of the Royal Wedding yesterday – we would like to send Prince William and Katherine huge CONGRATULATIONS and also the best of luck in their future together as the King and Queen of England (eventually!!) HOW EXCITING!

However, we have a job to do here at JKD and as you all know, today we feature some of the very best in the business, and today is no exception! Introducing Eleanor Holmes, the owner and founder of Weddings by Design, a Wedding designer based in Lincolnshire.

Lets hear what Eleanor has to say:
I plan and design weddings! My level of involvement is completely up to my clients; I offer smaller services such as Venue Search and Personalised Design Boards, and also a range of wedding packages that cover the planning process.

I completed a diploma in Event Management and Wedding Planning in 2009, but only started the company in September this year after graduating from university.

My mum always said I was born with a notebook and pen in my hand, and I've been obsessed with lists and organisation ever since. I struggled for a long time to find a balance between my organisational skills and my creative outlook on life, but when I read one day about the wedding planning process, I knew I'd hit gold. Setting up my own business was the most logical step in the current economic climate, to enable me to do what I love.

I like to focus on the design of a wedding, so rather than just book a supplier that fits with the couple's theme, I create a design vision and stick to it throughout the process. I construct a Personalised Design Board for each couple, which can also be purchased separately if a client only requires initial ideas.

Although I enjoy most aspects of the planning process, I love creating the Design Boards. I'm inspired by so many different things; fabrics, fashion, the weather, cities... the list goes on! So I love being able to search for new and exciting ideas across a whole range of media.

and she is also currently setting up her own fundraiser for Cancer Research UK which will hopefully be something to do with the wedding industry, so look out for updates!

Thank you so much for allowing us to feature your wonderful company!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - More Than Words

2010-11-09T15:00:00.014Z

Happy Wedding Supplier Wednesday! And boy have we got a cracker to warm you up and take away the rainy blues!!

Today we are featuring the lovely Lisa Long, Owner and 'chief designer' of the serious amazing 'More Than Words' typographic artwork.

Launched in 2010 and run from a home studio in Berkshire, Less than a year on, Lisa's artwork has been commissioned by customers across Europe, America and Australia. High profile clients include Dannii Minogue, screenwriter and film director Richard Curtis and TV executive Donna Taberer, and More Than Words artwork decorates the walls of well-known corporate clients such as the headquarters of Wedding Ideas Magazine, the UK's leading 'bride's bible'. Check out Lisa’s impressive PRESS here.

Seriously – how gorgeous are these pieces!!! Lets have a chat with Lisa and let her tell us all about it:

In a nutshell, I create bespoke typographic artwork capturing memories as works of art. The wedding market has become a huge part of the business and I create several pieces a week as gifts and keepsakes for happy couples to cherish. Our philosophy is to provide our customers with premium quality, original artwork at affordable prices. We pride ourselves on our passion for art and interiors and the desire to bring our clients something different. More Than Words offers artwork to suit any home and unique gifts for all occasions.

I have always loved design, in all shapes and forms – interiors, graphics, illustration, but it wasn’t until I took time out of a busy career to look after my children that I decided it was time to follow my passion and launch my own design business. I actually fell into the typographic design side as a result of creating a piece of art for our home, after struggling to find artwork that was affordable but premium quality, a great talking point, and something unique that we really loved.

I have a ‘thing’ for fonts…their simplicity has such impact, they surround us all day every day… so I created what is now the ‘original Memories Canvas’ to adorn our walls. A collection of our favourite memories as a piece of word art on a huge canvas in colours to match the room. I had so many requests for friends and family to create something for them…and from there More Than Words was born.

More Than Words typographic artwork is very unique, especially the gorgeous vintage framed canvas. Customers have the ability to submit their words and even mix their own custom colours via the website...I get many requests to match the wedding theme colours and I love being able to offer that service. Every single piece of art is also produced and hand-finished to strict Fine Art standards so you will not find any better quality.

I love that each new request is unique. I get really excited every time a new order comes through and I read down the list of quirky words and requested fonts and colours. The best part of the job is also doing something that I have immense passion for.I can fit it in around my children, aged 1 and 3. I tend to working late into the evenings once they have gone to bed, and use any free time I can get to design artwork and grow the business. I also LOVE when my customers actually take time out of their day to email or call me to say how pleased they are with their artwork.

This is my absolute FAV piece Lisa has ever made....isnt it stunning!!!!

And just to tease us, Lisa finished her interview by saying

watch this space for some fantastic new pieces coming soon.....

Ekkk – I cant wait to see what she comes up with next!!! THANK YOU so much for allowing us to feature your company on our blog and we wish you continued success!

You can find details about the bespoke and limited collection designs at www.morethanwords.uk.com, Call Lisa on 01628 627944 or email on sales@morethanwords.uk.com.More Than Words also sells through a handful of selected retailers, which can be found HERE.

See – didn’t I say we had a cracker today!!! I hope you agree!! If you would like to feature on our Wedding Supplier Wednesday Blog please email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

If we can help you with any bespoke Jewellery please contact Jon on 07904123297 or email jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

Firework Friday!

2010-11-05T10:59:00.006Z

Happy Firework Friday!

We are really excited to share one of our CAD (computer aided design) drawings with you today. To briefly explain, all of our pieces are bespoke and hand made, so we need to have these 'drawn up' during the design process. Normally we only share these with our clients, but we thought you might like to see them too!

So, here is a drawing of a design i have previously blogged.
and here is a reminder of the finished product.

We hope you like it!

We are also THRILLED to announce we are now proud sponsers of Whimsical Wonderful Weddings, a gorgeous Wedding Blog run by the lovely Lou. Check it out, well worth a read! As part of that we now have the Stamp of approval!

What a good way to end the week! If i can help you with anything please email me on jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or call me on 07904123297. I hope you have a lovely weekend!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Love My Dress

2010-11-02T14:13:00.008Z

HAPPY WEDDING SUPPLIER WEDNESDAY!

We hope you have had a good week? Today we are doing things a little differently for a very special event and a very very special lady....

We are extremely excited to be featuring the truly incredible Love My Dress on there first Birthday!

Happy Birthday to you!!
Happy Birthday to you!!
Happy Birthday dear Love My Dress!!
Happy Birthday to you!!

"Love My Dress is a UK Wedding Blog and Style Diary full of vintage glamour and wedding inspiration..."

We are HUGE fans of the inspirational Annabel and all that she does….we first met earlier this year when she choose to feature our own Wedding, and I think I can safely say we have been firm friends ever since. Lets find out a little more from the lovely lady herself:

Established in November 2009, as a place for me to share all my fabulous wedding related finds, Love My Dress has quickly established itself as one of the UK's leading wedding blogs. In just 12 months, Love My Dress has achieved a readership upwards of 175,000 page hits a month - a figure increasing all the time; 61% of visitors are UK based.

I was inspired to set up a UK Wedding Blog following my my March 2009 wedding in Whitby. I spent 15 months planning my big day, and during this time, realised I had developed an absolute passion for uncovering wedding related gorgeousness. From glamorous and vintage style bridal wear, to original and re-constructed vintage jewellery, vintage wedding gift list providers, gorgeous vintage style photography and much, much more. In sharing my finds, I soon came to realise that my personal taste appealed to many hundreds, now thousands of others.

'Love My Dress' is not a wedding blog just about pretty frocks; the Blog was named so after a pseudonym I used on an online forum when planning my wedding - I liked the name, and it kind of stuck! Today, Love My Dress represents a reliable and well-researched online resource, synonymous with fresh and inspirational content; a place where readers can grab a snippet of escapism on a daily basis, and be inspired.

‘Lady Love My Dress’

Love My Dress is updated daily, and through these pages, I aim to:-
♥ Feature real weddings, to inspire...
♥ Profile independent designers...
♥ Feature what I consider to be some of the very best wedding industry suppliers...
♥ Showcase amazing and inspirational photography
♥ Inspire my readers!

I'm extremely proud of Love My Dress, and I love how it connects me with so many amazing people that work within the wedding industry.

Only last week JKD was awarded with a 'Love My Dress' Badge of approval and we are thrilled!!This blog is ESSENTIAL reading, not only for Brides to be, but for anyone looking for a bit of vintage glamour. We wish Annabel and Love My Dress continued success and here’s to many many more years….*chink chink*

If we can help you with anything sparkly please email me on jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or call 07904123297. If you would like to feature on our Wedding Supplier Wednesday please email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

Have a lovely week!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - Simply Charming Events

2010-10-27T09:47:00.011+01:00

Happy Wedding Supplier Wednesday! Its cold and miserable outside, but no fear we are hear to help brighten your day! Today we are featuring the lovely Kirsti from Simply Charming Events, established in April 2010, who specialise in chair covers and centrepieces at great prices, based in South Wales.Here is what Kirsti had to say:

While planning my own wedding I couldn't believe the prices we were being quoted. Me and my husband decided to set up a business where we could offer brides quality products but at a much lower cost.

We are a family run business and offer one to one service with each bride. Our prices are very competitive as we work from home so we are able to keep our prices as low as possible.I love talking to brides about ideas for they're wedding. Being part of they're wedding is such a privilege. No two days are the same as every bride has her own ideas about her big day.

All our centrepieces can be customised to our clients requirements, we appreciate no two brides are the same so we don't expect everyone to want the same designs.
Although we are based in South Wales we provide a nationwide service we have currently been as far as Cumbria and Essex to do weddings.

You can contact Simply Charming Events via the WEBSITE or FACEBOOK PAGE

Thank you for allowing us to feature you Kirsti!

If we can help you with any bespoke jewellery, or if you would like to cash some gold, contact us on jon@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk or call 07904123297. If you want to feature on our Wedding Supplier Wednesday please email lisa@jonkeithdiamonds.co.uk

Wedding Supplier Wednesday - The Original Wedding Tea Towel

2010-10-20T09:13:00.020+01:00

Happy Wedding Wednesday! We hope you are having a lovely week?

We have a very exciting company for you today, when we saw there work we knew we just HAD to feature them! Introducing Ben and Karen from THE ORIGINAL WEDDING TEA TOWEL
And here is the story behind the company:

In December last year Ben and Karen got married. Ben's a designer so was under huge pressure to come up with a cool idea for the invitation. After about 20 failed attempts they finally hit on the idea of doing something people could keep, (after all, why spend all that money on something that people are only going to throw away), so perhaps, oddly, they decided on doing a tea towel.

Eventually, they created the original Whale design and got it to print, then we came to the day of sending them out. Waiting for people's responses was quite terrifying, we were worried it was going to be met with a blanket 'WHY?', but really, it couldn't have been further from the truth. People seemed genuinely blown away by them and the feedback was totally amazing.

Anyway, they got married and when the dust had settled they both thought maybe the idea was good enough to make a little business out of, so that's exactly what they did. They've since taken orders all over the UK and sent out loads of samples, OK, they're not the next Microsoft, but as a cottage industry it ticks over nicely.

Our experience in marketing (Karen was a Senior Project Manager at BBH and Ben's Creative Director at a large MK agency) means we can use that professionalism with our clients to make them feel at ease. Our biggest challenge is getting free press from the magazines and wedding blogs, so far we've been pretty successful in getting the idea picked up, and that press has driven most of our business. (this is where i come in haha!)

People always ask "why don't you do mugs, coasters, or sell the idea to schools, and playgroups" but we're not going to diversify in that way and lose focus. The strength of the product and of it's targeting is its niche; it's a specific type of product for a specific type of customer at a specific time in their lives and the smaller that target the more likely we're the only ones that can hit it.

It's a simple idea that appeals to the kind of interesting people we want to work with, and a business that's grown-up with love and attention.

WOW - we are simply blown away by this company! What a brilliant idea Ben & Karen have come up with! And, if like us, you have stumbled across this company AFTER your Wedding Day and are kicking yourself you didnt find them sooner, then check out the Thank You Tea Towels and get ordering NOW:BIG THANK YOU so much guys for allowing us to feature your company!! If you would like to get in touch with The Original Wedding Towel Company check out the WEBSITE, BLOG, Email them on karenmarriedben@googlemail.com or simply call them to discuss your options on Mob: 07764 898 010

We hope you like them as much as we do!

Wedding Supplier Wednesday

2010-10-13T10:51:00.000+01:00

Oh yes, its that time of the week again where we feature a wonderful Wedding Supplier, and this week we have the exciting Gillian Bell from Star Weds, which was established in May 2009. Gillian couldnt wait to tell us about the service:

Star Weds is the sophisticated and hassle-free way to ask for money as a wedding gift. We provide:
A personalised wedding website where your guests can contribute money
Choice of themes
Online guest book
Your own blog
Personalised web address
Directions to your venue
Countdown timer
And much more
Beautiful customised invitation inserts to tell your guests about your site.
Your guests can contribute via quick, easy and secure payment methods on your wedding website (i.e. credit/debit card via PayPal, cheque or balance transfer).
Our service is completely hassle-free for both the couples and the wedding guests. Guests don't need to worry about whether or not there will be a money box at the wedding, or which of the bridal party they should give their money gift to for safe keeping, they don't need to stress about sending money in the post or if sending a cheque, whether to make it out to the bride's maiden name or married name. Also from the couple's perspective, they won't need to spend all day at the bank cashing in lots of cheques and cash. We simply send one cheque with all the contributions from their guests.

Example of a Star Weds Website:

Chris and I attended five weddings last year and gave money as a gift at each one. We found that there was no safe and/or easy way to do this, so we developed the innovative idea of StarWeds. Furthermore, over the last 20 years, money has overtaken more traditional wedding gift favourites such as kitchen equipment and towel bales. This can partly be attributed to the fact that couples living together before marriage has become the norm rather than the exception. Currently in the UK, more than three quarters of couples live together before marriage. Therefore, it is understandable that most people no longer have the need or desire to set up a gift registry with a department store in order to buy household goods. Newlyweds are more likely to spend their money on a dream honeymoon, home improvements or even paying back some of the cost of their wedding. A recent poll conducted by Wedding Magazine found that almost half (45%) of couples would prefer their guests to give them money as a wedding gift. Cash is most certainly king for wedding gifts nowadays and this trend definitely looks set to continue.

There are very few companies which offer the same service as we do. There are several benefits of choosing StarWeds: * We do not charge any set up or activation fees. Also, we do not charge for our beautiful, customised invitation inserts. * We offer a stylish and sophisticated, personalised wedding site that is easy for both the couple and their guests to use. We also have some additional features such as a selection of themes, a wall section where you can keep your guests up-to-date with any exciting news, map directions to the venue and much more.* Wedding guests can choose to contribute any amount they wish and don't have to pick from a list with pre-determined amounts. They can also purchase a stylish, personalised gift certificate indicating the amount they have contributed to place inside their wedding congratulations card to the couple.* Most importantly, our customer service - we offer world-class, superior customer service. We are highly professional, fully dedicated, and committed to keeping our customers happy and providing a personalised service that is second to none.

There is so much that we enjoy in our working day...
We love liaising with our customers and providing them with a dedicated, personal and world-class service. We understand that a couple's wedding day is one of the most special days of their lives and we want to ensure that they remember their StarWeds experience as enjoyable, stress-free and truly exceptional.
Also, as a technology-based business - we are constantly reviewing, updating and improving our site. We aim to stay ahead of trends and provide our clients with the best features possible.

What a brilliant idea! THANK YOU for allowing us to feature your company! If you would like to contact Star Weds and set up your own Wedding Website then follow this link WEBSITE, and if you would like to view a sample of the personalised wedding website, then please visit SAMPLE. Also check out FACEBOOK and TWITTER.
