Creator-Welcome to all my new followers, there’s been a few of you lately! Thank you for finding my little corner of Insta.I thought I would tell you a little bit about what I do. In short I am a creator! I create ideas, I create content, I create others visions. Couples trust me to translate their ideas into reality, through styling on the day setups to helping curate full design plans.Blogs and magazines look to me to fill their pages with inspiring trend direction and beautiful setups.Brands and fellow suppliers believe in my visions to best represent their own style and showcase their products in carefully considered and thought about shoots.So dear Boris, I am more than just a wedding micro business. I am part of a team of creatives who have spent years refining their skills. Who deserve some support right now. We work tirelessly to bring families together, to create memories, to give hope and to fill venues all over the country with love and laughter. And that dear Rishi needs protecting!#whataboutweddings Throwing it back to this stunner of a shoot I styled last year-Pic: @victoriamitchellphotography Venue: @thebarnatbrookendgreenfarm Table: @nikkitapdesigns_hire Featured on: @blovedblog Industry joining together to support our industry-@lovemydress @borisjohnsonuk @rishisunakmp @bedfordindependent #styledshoot #styledshootinspo #modernistwedding #rusticluxe #dailyweddinginspiration #weddinggoals #weddingMoments #persuepretty #instabride #2020bride #2021bride #loveisntcancelled #twestyled #laidbackluxury #venuestylist #venuestylistbedfordshire #tablescape #tablestyling #rustictable #bohogroom #bohobride #bohostyling #bohowedding #barnwedding #farmwedding

The Process - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These p

The Process - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀These past two weeks I have really enjoyed getting creative again. Starting back on design boards for my couples and curating looks for styled shoots. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀The bringing together of ideas is one of my favourite elements of a stylist. Being able to create a vision on a screen that not only interprets what a couple have in mind but also explains the direction I am going. Couples and my supplier industry pals trust a lot in those images I pull together. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I spent 7 years as a fashion designer and I think this is definitely where my love of curating mood boards comes from. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀If you are struggling with your wedding styling get in touch as I offer inspiration and mood board creation as a stand alone option.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Photo from a Facetime branding shoot with @nikkitsmoments⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#moodboard #stylingboards #bts #brandshoot #brandidentity #weddinginspo #inspirationcuration #bohobride #weddingideas #weddingstyling #married2019 #weddinginspo #eclecticbride #relaxedstyling #venuestylistbedfordshire #venuestylist #weddinghirebedfordshire #rusticromance #bohovibes #shesaidyes #yourdayyourway #countrywedding #rusticluxe #rustichire #freespiritedbride #relaxedstyling #eventdesign #bohowedding

Variety -As a stylist it can be very easy to get pigeon holed into a certain style of wedding and event. Whilst I love all the boho vibes there has been something very refreshing about the past few shoots having a more refined and considered approach. A more luxe feel with a hint of romanticism. Pushing myself out of my comfort zone and feeling the buzz of styling something new!Loving this sneak peek from @nataliestevensonphoto of Monday’s gorgeous Shoot.

Behind The Scenes - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀When people hear what I do for a job, they think it must be so glamorous, days spent styling in beautiful locations meeting couples at the happiest time of their lives.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Yes to a certain extent they are right, I do go to beautiful locations and I do get to meet wonderful couples. But I do also spend my life in jeans and trainers, with wind swept hair and make-up rubbed off. I climb ladders, I crawl under tables, I pick candle wax of lanterns with broken nails. Only this week I have been stood out in the rain getting soaked holding up gazebos so the photographer can get the perfect shot.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I think on my feet, a natural problem solver, there is very little I can't fix with my SOS kit. I work in wind, rain and 30+ degree heat. Sometimes I ache so much I can barely sit down. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀But this is all the reasons why a stylist is an essential part of your wedding or event. We have all the creativity of an artist topped with a sheer can do attitude. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I mean are you even a venue stylist if you haven't styled a wedding on 2 hours sleep, lifted items bigger than yourself or sent hours teasing that arch drape into a shape of pure perfection?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀A little behind the scenes shot from @nickisheaphotography⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#bohobride #weddingideas #weddingstyling #married2020 #2021wedding #bts #outdoorceremony #outdoorwedding #dirtybootsmessyhair #thisisme #weddinginspo #eclecticbride #relaxedstyling #venuestylistbedfordshire #venuestylist #weddinghirebedfordshire #rusticromance #bohovibes #shesaidyes #yourdayyourway #countrywedding #rusticluxe #rustichire #freespiritedbride #relaxedstyling #eventdesign #bohowedding

Trust-As a stylist it can be hard not to question your abilities. To feel overwhelmed by what everyone is doing around you. To not worry about the number of enquiries coming in and to constantly question what you do. But then you have weeks like this week, where you work on 3 exciting projects and the results are perfection. 3 very different types of perfection but full on virtual high fiving perfection! And I know I am good at what I do!Throwing it back to the beautiful @crippsbarn.

Small and intimate-With today’s announcement that from the 1st August receptions of 30 people can go ahead is there a glimmer of hope weddings are heading in the right direction. Am I being to wishful that there maybe small intimate weddings and garden parties happening? If so holla!!! From laid back picnic inspired chill out areas to unique furniture hire.

Quiet-I have been a little quiet posting on the grid lately as I’ve just been struggling to process everything that is happening. The realisation that I only have 3 weddings booked in for the year is a scary one. Life feels like one big waiting game, waiting to be given a exchange date on our move, waiting for Bojo to announce something that may help us in wedding world. On the plus side I have been sun dancing and the weather looks good over the next few weeks. I have 1 #stayhomepicnic space available for the weekend of the 25th/26th July. Perfect for celebrating birthdays, anniversaries or just an excuse to see the gals!

Best made plans!Sometimes I wonder why I bother! Last night I thought I would get ahead of the game for tonight and schedule some social media. Went to push the post into Instagram today and forgot to copy the text over!!! Wwwaahhhh 😩 Now it’s not letting me tag the awesome creatives involved In the above shoot so see comments below and it was a bit of a from the heart post, I mean it was long!!!This shoot is from when my 2 loves collided, when I set styled The beautiful Bowen Dryden Couture gown collection.

Signage- With the world starting to feel like it’s opening up again we have started wandering further. It has been so nice to have a few days out from our local area, to head to the beach, to explore great parks and just feel a little freer (if that’s a word).

Picnics- Let’s talk picnics, I bloody love them

Picnics-Let’s talk picnics, I bloody love them. There is something about an array of food, being outside and sitting on the floor that just excites me! As kids we used to have lounge picnics when the weather wasn’t great inside, complete with a blanket and cushions. Today we went to the beach and of course had a picnic! Over the past 3 months I have never had so many picnics, inside, in the garden, up hills, next to the river. Every time we go out Devon thinks we are going for a picnic. This weekend the #stayhomepicnic is fully booked again. There are still some slots left for July so get in touch if you would like to reserve your little slice of escapism. I am loving this shot of @jellypigs enjoying hers last week when the sun was shining! Don’t worry I will be sun dancing for everyone booked for this weekend!#backgardenpicnic #bohopicnic #gardenpicnic #bohodining #picnics #outdoorpicnic #bohostyling #outdoorliving #macramerunner #picnicbedfordshire #picnicinspo #outdoordining #picnicstyling #picnichire #twehire #styledpicnic #picnicparty #picnicinthepark #picnictable

Multi Tasking- At the moment I feel I am wearing

Multi Tasking-At the moment I feel I am wearing lots of hats. Designing dried flower creations, providing The Stay Home Picnic, working on my current couples and still trying to book future couples, moving the Glam Garage (cross fingers finally complete this week, well Glam Garage Storage anyway.) and being a pretty much full time mum! Never have we ever spent so much one on one time together and whilst it had been absolutely amazing to watch her develop and grow so much. My ability to work has definitely taken a pounding. I have had serious mum guilt about trying to work whilst she is around, feeling like she is neglected and worried about the amount of screen time. This must be such a confusing time for a 2year old that I have tried to give her my everything. So honestly I am running a little behind in everything The White Emporium, so if you are waiting for an invoice or design plan from me they will be with you as soon as possible.Loving this flag from @thewhitecottageedit its on my new homes list! Pretty much feels how I feel every time I look at Devon. Styled perfectly with one of my small dried flower bouquets, more of which are heading out the door tomorrow.#driedflowers #homeinteriors #bohohome #nevergrowup #interiorstyling #twestudio #britishdriedflowers #homedecor #sloganflag #kidsroomdecor #terracottatones #driedflowerbouquet

Ceremonies- With the Government announcing weddin

Ceremonies-With the Government announcing wedding ceremonies can go ahead from the 4th July. It is a big step forward in the right direction. Yes there might not be the party or celebration after but you can still publicly declare your love and commitment In front of 30 of your nearest and dearest. If a small ceremony is making your heart sore then get in touch, small can still be beautiful!

Today-Today I stepped inside a wedding venue @crockwellweddings and what a beautiful venue it was. It was almost like the past few months had never happened, like I had never been away, but yet at the same time bitter sweet as Crockwell should be packed full of laughter and memory making at this time of year.I was off delivering lots of brass candle sticks for Crockwells new branding video. The brass candle stick has to be one of my most popular hire item but it just doesn’t get old. It can be styled into so many looks and is pretty amazing with a coloured candle in!Image credits:pic: @fjs.photography Venue: @thebarnatbrookendgreenfarm Table: @nikkitapdesigns_hire #brasscandlestick #tablescape #venuestyling #venuestylist #tablestyling #married2020 #married2021 #weddinginspo #barnwedding #bedfordshirewedding #stonevessels #driedflowerstyling #colouredcandles #trestletablestyling #rusticluxe #rusticstyling #modernrusticdecor

Creativity-Let’s talk lockdown creativity. I honestly feel it has bought out (forced out) the passion and love we have for getting creative! As professionals most of us have gone back to the roots of what we loved about our profession and we have the time to be creative just for the hell of it! The amazing talent that is @catlanephoto took my dried flowers and captured this. She went back to what she loves about photography and produced something breath taking! She’s a Rembrandt!#selfportrait #portrait #driedflowers #photographyart #driedflowerart #driedflowerbouquet #lockdownart #lockdowncreativity #driedflowerstyling #moderndriedflowers
