How To Celebrate Your Non Wedding Day In Lockdown

4th June 2020 by Gemma Leave a Comment

June is here (how did that happen) and for most this marks the start of summer. For some it is bitter sweet as they should have been saying their vows in front of loved ones. As a wedding supplier I have had all of my June and July weddings postpone, I am still quietly hopeful for the end of August but every week is a new development so all we can do is wait. This means that there are many couples who face a non wedding day, an empty date that they had spent months and years planning for.

My advice to you is don’t let this day pass with out marking it, you picked that original date for a reason so it still needs to be celebrated and memories made. So I have put together some ideas for an amazing weekend that made my heart soar and put a smile on my face, all from localish to Bedford Businesses who all need your support right now.

First up has to be The Stay Home Picnic. A collaboration between Nikkita Palmer Designs and myself. Relax just the two of you in a bohemian paradise, sip champagne and graze on the yummiest platter of fresh food from The Bountiful Table. Discuss your dreams and ambitions and lay back picturing the day you will eventually get to say you vows and dance the night away.

What could be more romantic than having a night under the stars so upgrade your picnic package to include a bell tent from FM Tents, with a starting price of £80. What could be more memorable than star gazing cuddled under a blanket surrounded by candle light (I can provide all the lanterns). Wouldn’t this be the perfect surprise for a couple for their non wedding day, who are maybe feeling burdened by the stress that postponing a wedding brings. All deliveries and setup are contactless and follows government guidelines.

No wedding is complete without photos so don’t let this date be missed. Ayelle Photography are offering relaxed socially distanced mini photo shoots to help capture those memories, get dressed up, grab the flowers supplied with your ‘Stay Home Picnic‘ and make your own mini bouquet. Trust me you will look back on those images in years to come and a smile will spread across your face, not many people will be celebrating a non wedding day in lock down.

Cake! Of course you need cake and I am totally in love with Oh My Cakerys loaded brownies, this gal say’s it how it is, her in your face cakes are the perfect tonic for adding an air of light heartedness to the occasion and they taste amazing.

Pamper and chill. The night before your wedding and the morning of should be spent relaxing and laughing. You might not be able to have your gals and guys with you in person but they are only a Zoom away. Treat yourself to a pamper package from Lords and Ladies, who have just launched their online shop (there is also the perfect one for men). Put on a face mask, sip the champagne, eat the cake and get your friends on the screen. Its amazing how normal a Zoom social gathering soon feels.

Back to the romance… The whole reason you are getting married is to publicly declare your love and committal to someone. You can still do this. Ok it might not be legal but it can still be romantic. Kelly Hawes is a celebrant who has been conducting virtual ceremonies, yes it sounds totally void of emotion but she says totally the opposite –

”The ceremonies have been a fantastic way to bring everyone together in celebration on a day that would instead feel empty. Ive been totally blown away by the emotion and connection felt between us all despite being through a screen.The couples have all commented just how much they enjoyed the moment and I hope I have left them with an everlasting memory during a difficult situation. ”

So memories and laughter can still be made, your day might not be happening when you originally thought, but you can still celebrate! Having to wait a little longer is going to make it all the meaningful, memorable and enjoyable when it does happen. Plus everyone is going to want to have a huge party!

The Story- ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Behind ever The Story-⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Behind every shoot I do there is always a background story. Something I imagine to help give the shoot depth and meaning. It’s not always vocalised but it helps me envision the shoot In it’s broader context. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀No different to a real wedding where behind every day there is a lifetime of story making. Which reminds me this week I have to write up the concept and ideas behind this gorgeous shoot! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Concept & Venue: @huntsmillfarmweddingsPhotographer: @hannahhallphotographyDécor & Styling: @thewhiteemporiumFlorist: @wildsapphirefloristHair: @kateatalaybespokehairMUA: @alikynochDresses: @thth_bridesmaidsCake: @deliciouslydivineStationery: @papergraceukBridal Crown: @capedandcrownedCatering: @dimblebeecateringModel: @a.wmodelcoupleVideographer: @calmacbeth.weddings⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#moodyblues #stonebarnwedding #venuestylingbedfordshire #weddinginspiration #weddingstylist #weddingtablescape #rusticvenue #venuestylist #twestyled #weddinginspiration #weddingstyling #2023wedding #2022wedding #weddingvenuestyling

As well as keeping a baby alive there is a super exciting project under construction that is taking quite a lot of my brain space as I contemplate the next few years for this little biz.

What’s my favourite? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I got asked the other day what my favourite type of venue was, weather it was a tipi, a barn, country manor, a sail cloth? The answer is… I don’t have a favourite. I love variety, I love that I get to work in many different locations. I love spaces that can be a blank canvas, where we can work to put your own personal stamp on the space. The only thing I’m not a fan of is a patterned carpet and luckily I don’t have to work with many of those. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀This year I’m booked to style tipis, big vast barns, stretch tents on private land, a ruined church and each one will be completely unique! Items to hire in image: log slice table numbers, coloured and vintage bottles, brass candlesticks.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Venue: @tiptopvenues_ Tipi: @countrytipis Photographer: @emilylittlephotography Flowers: @flowers_at_fifty_eight Napkins: @thelinenhire ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#tipiwedding #festivalwedding #brightandboldwedding #tablestyling #miltonkeyneswedding #venuestylistbedford #decorhirebedford #weddinghirebedfordshire #tipistyling #farmwedding #outdoorbride

Quietness- ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve been Quietness-⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I’ve been a little quiet here lately. There is a lot going on behind the scenes that I am so excited to share with you hopefully within a couple of months. Lucy has been taking the helm on the admin front for me and it’s allowed me to attempt to take a little step back so I can think about the direction the business is heading in over the next few years and gosh that requires a lot of head space! It’s also been a bit of a mad month with 4 weddings taking up most of my keeping in touch days. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Who has been thinking about their place settings? I thinkIt always pays off to give these areas a little extra thought.Hired items in this photo are white table runner. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Venue: @strattoncourtbarnGorgeous bright florals from @theflowerstoryPhoto credit: @storyandcolourVenue: @strattoncourtbarn⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#tablescape #weddingtabledecor #barnwedding #barnweddings #barnweddingvenue #strattoncourtbarn #realweddinginspiration #laidbackluxe #springwedding #twestyled

Happy Easter Weekend! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Happy Easter Weekend!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I felt like I haven’t been able to breath for the past 2 weeks as Covid rampaged through our house hold just in timefor back to back weddings and a branding shoot. Luckily I remained negative for the first and then super hubby stepped up and covered off a dry hire drop off and collection, saving the day. Ever since Weddings picked up again I have been dreading that double line. Finally putting into action the contingency plans that have been made for every wedding since 2020 just in case. Now for a long weekend and to rest and recharge to tackle the next 2 weddings in May. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Furniture: @nikkitapdesigns_hireFlorals: @charlesandfayePhotographer: @matthoranphotographyVenue: @greenacresweddings⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#tablescape #tablescapeinspo #weddinginspiration #bohobride #outdoorbride #laidbackluxe #outdoorwedding #woodlandwedding #woodlandweddingvibes #trestletablestyling #burntorangewedding #married2022 #greenacresweddings #calligraphytablenumbers #venuestylist #laidbackluxe #seasonalshift #woodlandweddinginspiration #driedflowerwedding #driedflowerstyling #twestyled #autumnalvibes

Don’t hide your cake in the corner-​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I love seeing the creativity that comes from the cake, every cake is so personal to each couple. I have seen them all. Absolute works of art, home made bakes from a grand parent, carefully constructed ginger bread houses and even a Colin the caterpillar. I’ve got a wide selection of cake stands and furniture for making your cake the centre piece it deserves to be.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Florals: @charlesandfaye​​​​​​​​Photographer: @matthoranphotography​​​​​​​​Venue: @greenacresweddings​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​#weddingcake #weddinginspiration #bohobride #outdoorbride #laidbackluxe #outdoorwedding #woodlandwedding #woodlandweddingvibes #burntorangewedding #married2022 #greenacresweddings #venuestylist #seasonalshift #woodlandweddinginspiration #twestyled #autumnalvibes
Plan Bs ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Originally thi Plan Bs⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Originally this wedding was meant to feature one long table winding through the trees but the good old British weather had other plans. With a day full of rain the tables all had to fit under a small marque. This is where having a stylist on hand proved essential. Because it was a woods, the space the marque went in was not level, my team and I spent ages figuring out the best table arrangement so everyone could stay dry and the tables were all level. We also improvised some extra draping to hang from the ceiling to stop the marque looking so bare. What’s more the bride, groom and guests had no ideas of all the table manoeuvring! J&J used a take the weight off styling service to help bring their look together which is invaluable for a venue where you only have day access. Their tables featured mini groups lanterns, burnt orange table runners, brass candle sticks and brass edge frames.Furniture: @nikkitapdesigns_hireFlorals: @charlesandfayePhotographer: @matthoranphotographyVenue: @greenacresweddings⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#tablescape #tablescapeinspo #weddinginspiration #bohobride #outdoorbride #laidbackluxe #outdoorwedding #woodlandwedding #woodlandweddingvibes #trestletablestyling #burntorangewedding #married2022 #greenacresweddings #calligraphytablenumbers #venuestylist #laidbackluxe #seasonalshift #woodlandweddinginspiration #driedflowerwedding #driedflowerstyling #twestyled #autumnalvibes
