Alternative Wedding Cake
Wedding cakes today have quite rightly found their place in the top ten on any bride’s list and it seems that no reception is complete without one.
Now being offered so much choice it’s no surprise that some brides and grooms are breaking away from the traditional way and want their wedding day to be completely different, unique and totally personalised to them.

Tall Brides
The tall woman is easily noticed in any room as is indeed any blushing bride. Being a tall bride can be classed by some as a blessing or a curse however comfortable and confident they are with themselves.
The tall bride is considered one of the lucky ones that can wear almost any style of dress but of course she still needs to make sure the dress and accessories are not calling attention to a less-than perfect part of her body that she is not happy with.
There is a wonderful range of options available for the tall bride depending on your taste and budget.

Wedding Table Decorations and Centrepeices
Wedding decorations can create that special ambience you are looking for at your reception and can include anything and everything that you want – the choice is endless as is colours and materials.
The top table and surrounding areas such as walls, doorways, windows and guest tables that are decorated can turn a plain room into something wonderful and magical for you and your guests to celebrate your special and memorable wedding day.

Grooms Outfit - Highland Kilt
The kilt makes us think of Scotland, haggis, caber tossing, bonny Prince Charlie and wanting to know if the wearer really does brave the cold!
Men who wear and carry kilts well can look smart, sophisticated and quite sexy in their own way and more grooms than ever are taking to wearing the full highland regalia on their wedding days.
With hire shops offering reasonable charges the kilt is fast becoming the only national dress to be worn in almost any country worldwide.

Pampering Hen Party
Your wedding has been planned for months and before you know it the day is fast approaching and after all the stress, time and effort leading up to it you can now find time to relax and enjoy your hen night.
If you find that you don’t want to, or your budget does not run into a weekend away and a night on the town does not appeal to you so much and you would prefer something more relaxing, yet at the same time help get both your mind and body ready for your big day, then a pampering party may be just what you are looking for.

Historic Weddings
Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton are one of those rare couples who share a deep and eternal love for each other yet managed to spend both of their marriages in a constant verbal and physical battle.
The couple who were soon to be named the ‘royalty of movie kingdom’ first met and fell in love while filming Cleopatra in 1963 when Elizabeth was a 30 year old starlet and already on her forth marriage.
The world was soon to learn of their love for each other and it was not long before Elizabeth was seen wearing a stunning emerald and diamond brooch which Richard had given her for an engagement present.
