I hope you’ve been enjoying the summer sunshine today – this weeks’ little blog review is a little later than normal because it’s been such a lovely day! So – time for a quick recap on the last week and today I’m sharing some of the best little goodies I’ve bookmarked from around the web this week.
Last week on the English Wedding blog
- Wedding magazines: introduction, the wedding magazine review, and a look at individual wedding magazines. These articles were written to help brides and grooms decide which wedding magazine is best for you, and to provide a useful resource for anyone – businesses included – with questions about the UK wedding press. To find out what this is all about, start here!
A few comments asked what the point of this review was, so I’ve tried to reiterate my reasons for writing about the wedding press: it’s not just to make up for previous bad behaviour(!) – I intended this as a useful reference and if there’s just one person out there who shares my geeky curiosity about wedding mags who enjoys reading these, then I’m happy!- Sally’s blog post about her eclectic wedding day jewellery was inspiring – every piece has a story; none of it matches and it’s absolutely perfect.
- Adele from Blue Lights Photo asked me to share the details of her competition to win your wedding photography
- Maria and Lloyd’s dreamy Dartmouth Castle wedding finished this week beautifully
