Moggerhanger Park

30th September 2020 by Gemma Leave a Comment

Remember when we used to head to magazines for our wedding inspo? There is still something very satisfying about seeing your work in physical print. I love a magazine, I wish I had more time to find a quiet spot to get lost in their pages.

This is another throwback, this time to 2016 and a shoot I will always credit to introducing me to one of my wedding pals I could not face this crazy industry without – Becky of Love From Becky.

On a cold and misty day a group of local Bedfordshire wedding suppliers headed to Moggerhanger Park to curate an elegant, romantic shoot. Inspired by the peachy tones of Moggerhanger and with elements of Parisian sophistication.

I styled a chic ceremony setup , complete with hand painted banner backdrop and as with all my setups surrounded by candle light. The banner featured a romantic verse and was a beast to hand paint, its amazing to see the journey my calligraphy has been on from these early days. To see more recent examples of my calligraphy head to the Signage section of my website.

The whole look was effortless, with the models styled with tossled hair and soft make-up. Their dresses were elegant and simple and perfectly suited the refined setting of Moggerhanger. Each model wore a mix of striking head pieces that perfectly paired with the dresses.

Beach Elopment

12th August 2020 by Gemma Leave a Comment

It’s amazing to look at where my styling has taken me over the years and to see how my work has developed. To make the website more user friendly I will be showcasing all my press featured work on the blog instead of it’s own drop down. So I am going back through the archives to dig out some of my favourite work and over the next few weeks/months will be sharing one wedding or shoot a week.

Starting off with this beautiful beach elopement. Throwing it back to 2015. Not long after I had started and really testing the waters with my styling. Myself and a team of fellow suppliers headed off to Camber Sands for my first ever beach shoot. Although over 5 years old this shoot is still incredibly relevant and important, not only does it show how myself and some of the other featured businesses have grown over the years but over the next few months you are going to be seeing a lot of elopement inspiration as smaller more intimate ceremonies become the choice of many.

The shoot was featured on Rock My Wedding and my first ever feature on their pages. Rock My Wedding is one of my favourite wedding blogs and it is definitely where a lot of my couples hang out.

This shoot was full of laid back bare foot elegance. Georgina our stunning bride wore her hair in a relaxed fish tail braid, (man I wish I could do my hair like that!) Her make-up was soft, dewy and subtle. Georgina wore a dress from Very and our handsome groom Patrick paired his own light coloured chinos, with a crisp white shirt and navy braces.

The main focus on styling for the shoot was a low level palette table, perfect for relaxed beach picnic vibes. I am a bit of a picnic addict and through lockdown have been hiring the Stay Home Picnic setup, perfect for some garden escapism. I didn’t want the setting to be dominated by my styling so everything was kept neutral and simple. Sequins don’t always mean uber glam, I used a rose gold sequin runner to provide a pop of colour and add a different texture into the mix. Interested in hiring rose gold table runners follow this link for more info.

Camber Sands provided the perfect space for long beach walks and to top it off we welcomed horse Guinness into the shoot. The dream is to one day ride a horse along a beach!

Chasing The Dreams For The White Emporium

24th May 2017 by Gemma Leave a Comment

As I sit here in my garden with a milkshake in hand I thought it was a good a time as ever to get back to blogging. It has been countless New Years resolutions to make this a weekly thing, but I think I might just have to face facts and admit it will be sporadic. However this is a blog post I have been meaning to write for sometime as I have some exciting news to share and it’s about chasing my dreams for The White Emporium.

As of the beginning of May I left my full time job to pursue my dreams with The White Emporium, admittedly I wasn’t brave/ crazy enough to stop paid work completely but I believe I have found a happy balance working part with my new family The Vintage Suit Hire Company. I wanted to share my story as it’s achievable to everyone, I’m just a normal girl with a dream and from somewhere I grew a pair and took the leap.

The White Emporium started after my own wedding, I loved the designing and styling so much I wanted to share my passion with others, I had previously never imagined working in weddings, but my won wedding gave me such a buzz I couldn’t let it go. The first year of business was more of a hobby, I honestly made little money and it was more about me having fun,  some of the posts I shared on social media were horrific and as I have grown and learnt these have swiftly been removed, looking back there are a lot of ‘what were you thinking’ moments. I did some horrific wedding fairs, one where no one turned up apart from my best friend who came to be nosey and one where I felt so uncomfortable and out of my depth as the newbie I was to scared to speak to anyone. In hindsight I can see I had to experience these situations to be able to learn, however at the time I nearly gave up. In the summer of my first year I had bookings – Hallelujah!!!! I charged peanuts to style some weddings and I received great feedback. The White Emporium could be run in a couple of hours every week, I would share a few images on Facebook and Instagram, write the odd blog in my lunch break and send a couple of emails – it was fun!

Year 2, is when it started to get real! I got involved in some styled shoots, re-vamped the website, took more bookings and got behind with the blogging. The White Emporium could no longer be run in a couple of hours, I was now working on it every night and most weekends, I had the bug and I wanted to keep growing. I won The ‘One to Watch’ at the local wedding awards and people started to take notice, I was no longer the newbie, I started to forge strong friendships with other local wedding suppliers, this was a vital turning point in my business as they would recommend me to their brides and I began to develop a reputation. Year 2 however is when I realised I couldn’t have it all, there were dark days when I mentally could not comprehend the work that had to be achieved. I was working 9-6 with an hours commute each way, my job was stressful, demanding and sucking all the energy out of me.  When I would return home from work I would cook a 15minute dinner and then hit my laptop, I was waking up before 6 to do an hours work on The White Emporium to return home to do a further work. My mind was stretched, my creativity destroyed and I was sad. My husband found it hard as I was always working in one form or another, there was little time for us. There was zero time for The White Emporium promotion, when I looked at other businesses and the outreach they were achieving I would kick myself and get so mad. I was in a vicious never ending cycle of work that I couldn’t see the end of. Yet year 2 I worked on some amazing weddings, the styling projects got bigger, the photoshoots bolder and I began to get featured in blogs and magazines. Year 2 was about fighting the battle!

Year 3 saw some hope! At the start of my third year in business I had already booked weddings for the next year which marked a massive milestone, it showed there was longevity in my plan. For some crazy reason I felt like this wasn’t enough and The White Emporium could do more, I had been touched by a couple charities and the work they do so decided in my infinite wisdom to organise a charity gala. I learnt so much from this event, what I am mentally and physically capable of, that anything is possible when you put your mind to it. Without any previous event organising experience I managed to pull it off and raise a considerable amount of money in the process. Pat on the back for me but back to the dark days of working all hours. I lost weight, everyone would tell me how great I looked but I knew it was exhaustion, I would drive to and from work but not know how I got there, I felt like I was letting everyone down.  In November 2016 I won the Venue Stylist of the Year at the Four Counties Wedding Awards, this got me thinking if I could win an award when I had no time to spend on The White Emporium, imagine what I could do with more time! More weddings got booked in and everyone wanted to get married on a Friday, something had to change. I sat down with my husband and we made a plan, if I wanted to make a success of The White Emporium I needed to dedicate more hours, but I still needed to pay the bills, the goal was to go part time by July. I started 2017 with a plan and a goal but like all well made plans the unexpected happens. I was still miserable, more miserable than I had ever been, finding a part time job that would allow me to work on The White Emporium seemed unachievable and my full time job had me at my lowest ebb, this is where I learnt my two biggest lessons… Never give up and open yourself to unexpected opportunities. My part time work with The Vintage Suit Hire Company was a twist of fate that I could never have imagined would fall my way. They took a risk, I took a risk and so far it is paying off. Within days of being presented with this opportunity  I had handed my notice in on my full time job, it felt so right I wasn’t even scared, this was a job I had trained four years for, got myself in thousands of pounds of debt for and here I was giving it the big middle finger with a huge smile on my face.

So here we are nearly 1 month in and the sun is shining. I realise it won’t always be plain sailing and milkshakes, I am faced with the biggest challenge of all; turning my passion into a business, I have had time to re-stock, take on advice and get an action plan in place. There will be more styled shoots, more conceptual weddings and The White Emporium will become more visual. My styling packages will soon be better defined, more props and décor added and occasionally you may get a blog post! It’s going to be a bumpy ride but I am so glad I had those dark days so I can truly appreciate the freedom I have to dream  now.

My advice to you is to have faith in yourself and follow your dreams no matter what they are.

Love

A Beautiful White Affair

15th January 2016 by Gemma Leave a Comment

One of my favourite things about my job is getting to work with some super talented suppliers on styled shoots. Today I am going to share with a beauty of a gem, perfect for cheering up this very cold day. Back in May 2014 we created an effortlessly beautiful look which took full advantage of the lush green backdrop. The first look saw our bride and groom embrace under a natural arbor complimented with a love quote plaque and candles (frequent followers will know I have a candle obsession). The bride had a stunning relaxed bun up-do decorated with flowers. Her dress was trimmed with beads and featured a small train, perfect for the relaxed feel.

Our couple dined at a table brimming with eucalyptus and brass candlesticks, gip filled the mini glass vases and rustic Mr and Mrs hand painted signs hung from the chairs.

IMG_4665 IMG_4610 IMG_4606 IMG_4603 IMG_4602

With the beautiful setting it would have been rude not to take advantage of the outdoors so we created a picnic, which has to be the ultimate in relaxed wedding dining.

IMG_4618 IMG_4732 11163765_1597953193816982_5564355932346862800_n

White was our non-colour of choice, it really pops against the green and the beautiful relaxed hand tied bouquet was to die for!

IMG_4605 IMG_4599 IMG_4600 IMG_4604 springstyled-004 IMG_4666

The second look saw the bride in a short lace and loose waved hair, the groom looked dapper in shirt and braces. 2016 is all about signage and our Mr and Mrs signs and chalk boards provide amazing photo props.

I love the intimate feel of this shoot and how in love the couple look. When I style shoots I love to help create the relaxed vibe that was over whelming on this gorgeous day.

I hope you love it as much as I do.

Spring Country Wedding Styled Shoot

12th June 2015 by Gemma Leave a Comment

Oooppps been a month since our last blog post! Life at The White Emporium has been non stop and manic but in a good way so please forgive us for the absence.

But we have something below certainly worth waiting for!

A couple of weeks ago we took part in another styled wedding shoot with a band of amazing wedding photographers. The look was a summer country wedding, the feel was fresh and airy. There was crispness in the styling with only white flowers contrasting against beautiful greenery and eucalyptus, the only real use of colour came from gold highlights in the invites and styling accessories. May sees an abundance of Cow Parsley which makes for a dreamy back drop.

The table was dressed with vintage linen and accessorized with brass candlesticks and glass tealights. I love the idea of stand out plates, (I wish I had thought of interesting plates for my own wedding plain white just looks so boring now!) so we found some beautiful gold rimmed, dinner and side plates, you can create some really beautiful table settings with a few simple touches and we tied a few sprigs of greenery in with the knife and fork.

The second look saw the bride and groom heading to a vintage picnic complete with crates and slate boards. This idea can easily be translated into a cheese table or why not have welcome drinks in a picnic setting.

At The White Emporium we have a wide selection of chalk boards and love nothing better than a good love quote. Don’t miss these below!

Check out the beautiful striped cake, i love this idea what a way to make a unexpected impact and how amazing do the flowers look on top!

Finally the group of lovely photographers whose photos are below are super talented, they all have a slightly different style to their technique make sure you hope over to their websites for full photos don’t forget to check out all the other suppliers below who worked on this beautiful shoot!

A moment for reflection - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A moment for reflection -⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀A year ago we entered our first full lockdown! Where has this year gone? At times it feels I have blinked and time has evaporated at others the clocks seem to have stood still.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀This time last year TWE had already started to feel the effects of Covid, the postponements flood led in but there remained an glimmer of hope this would just be a short term measure. A year on and we are still in a lockdown although one not as controlled as we entered into a year ago. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀This year has been mentally the toughest of my life, I have constantly had everything I believed in challenged & my eyes & heart have been opened in more ways than I could have imagined. February 2020 I was charging into what should have been the best year ever for TWE now March 2021 I am crawling into the shortest wedding season ever known. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I have learnt how resilient I am, when my backs against the wall I can stand and fight. Not one penny of government support has yet come my way but here the business is still standing. I am exhausted and I feel I have aged about 10 years but I have done it and on those dark days I will always be able to return back to the knowledge that I never gave up & even though my business hasn’t thrived like it should have it still carried on and remained a constant. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I have huge respect for the businesses who have been able pivot and fly. At times in all this craziness it has taken all my strength to get out of bed and face the day. My brain has been more muddled than ever before, filled with fear, sadness, anger at the injustice of it all & yet it has still managed to be creative and find a way to keep the money coming in. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀So although this isn’t over and still I hold so much anxiety for the year ahead, I do feel hopeful for the future. TWE will be evolving over the next few months and I am excited to take you all with me on the next part of my journey.

Lockdown creation - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ w Lockdown creation - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀when @thymelanephoto asked me to be involved with her lockdown creation project I couldn't say no. I love Neomi's ability to capture beauty, the texture that jumps out from her images and that slight moody tone to her work. She worked her magic capturing elements of my hire range with only a little creative direction from myself and the results blew me away.

Signing out for the weekend- You guys love it whe Signing out for the weekend-You guys love it when Little D hits the grid so It’s only right she makes an appearance ahead of her birthday weekend. My little party loving diva is going to be 3! Where has that time gone? So I’m going to take some time off and not focus solely on her for the weekend. I mean she’s the reason this all started a job that could be flexible around child care and to lead by example. (Girl bosses run the world!) I will be hoping on my stories as there is a new arrival joining TWE team that you are going to want to meet!Also a huge huge thank you to everyone who sent me a message this week, who’s reached out and checked in, watched my interviews and listened to me moan! You guys are amazing!

I realised I haven’t posted for a while. If I’m honest this week has been exhausting and yesterday’s budget relief soon turned sour when you realise that being ‘included’ isn’t actually financially that great (I hope they prove me wrong) and that the money if it comes won’t be landing probably until May, 2 whole months away and a whole new tax year (sneaky fuckers!) Anyway I’m going to forget about it all for a while, the enquiries are coming in, you lot are bloody amazing! And there are still exciting projects in the pipeline which I hope to be able to start focusing on from next week.

Fried Brain - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Today h Fried Brain - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Today has been the most I have used my brain for a long time and it feels good! Though I am so exhausted! It reminds me of the feeling when you get back from a wedding setup, when you can't stop smiling because you have worked so hard and you are so mentally energised from the excitement of the day but so exhausted from the non stop adrenaline of working to a deadline. God I love this feeling! I mean it feels weird that I have achieved this working high without moving 5m from my laptop and I wish all todays experiences had been able to be in person but it feels so good to feel like I have really achieved something!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀@bassmeadmanorbarns @themisstomrsbudget I look forward to part 2 of our podcast with Richard Fuller MP.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Throwing it back to this dreamy setup for @theflourishworkshop  captured by @lolarosephotos amazing florals by @twiggythistle table @nikkitapdesigns_hire. candles: @esteranderik stationary: @loupaper venue: @sanctumonthegreen⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#tablescape #driedflowers #driedflowerinstallation #florwerinstallation #hanginginstallation #tablestyling #rusticluxe #married2021 #married2022 #grazingboard #flowerinstallation #rusticluxe #venuestylist #twestyled #trestletable #weddingstyling #weddinginspiration #persuepretty #bohovibes #outdoorwedding #modernweddingstyling #rusticromance
