It’s not just the bride who needs her dream outfit! It’s important for the groom to get his outfit perfect too. Buying your groom’s suit may sound simple. Just some trousers, a shirt and a jacket, right? Actually, when it comes to picking out the groom, groomsmen and usher outfits for the wedding, menswear can be surprisingly complicated! There are different styles of suits that are suitable for weddings in different seasons and formalities. Already feeling a little daunting? Here's our ultimate guide to menswear for weddings to help you make those key outfit decisions.
Marquees give you total flexibility in wedding planning - something that is particularly relevant during COVID-19. Even if you aren't planning a marquee wedding, this year a lot of couples will hire a marquee simply to increase the space available at their venue to allow for additional guests.

From circus tents, tipis and yurts to more traditional pole tents, stretch marquees and huge clearspan structures, marquees can fit into surprisingly small spaces and give you the flexibility to choose your own timetable and suppliers.

Welcome to the wonderful world of bridal lingerie. Not sure where to begin when looking for your bridal lingerie? Whether you are choosing something to wear beneath your wedding dress or something for the wedding night; you've come to the right place! Our complete guide is here to help you make your lingerie decisions simple.
Humanist weddings and celebrant-led ceremonies have risen in popularity hugely in the UK. Over 1,000 occur in England and Wales each year. Lots of couples are now considering these non-religious wedding ceremonies as an alternative to a civil ceremony. Here we will guide you through everything you need to know about celebrants and celebrant-led ceremonies.
When it comes to tying the knot, there are various ceremonies with different legal statuses. Instead of simply ‘getting married’ in either a church or registry office, there are actually multiple choices to consider. This gives you the opportunity to explore and find something that will perfectly define you and your partner as a couple.
Writing (and editing) your wedding guest list is one of the most important parts of your wedding planning to get sorted early. The size of your guest list directly relates to your wedding budget and venue, and it's likely to turn into a balancing act between inviting everyone you want to be there and being able to afford the catering and venue costs.
