Green wedding venue, Gants Mill has had a wonderful summer for weddings this year with pretty much every Saturday getting snapped up!
And little wonder when you see what a beautiful setting the old (still working!) mill makes. Greg at Gants Mill has put together a little video of some of their summer weddings this [...]

My dad came to see me the other week to help with my accounts (interpret: do them for me because I’m lazy) and while he was here I asked if he wanted to see The Venue.
Given the choice of that or a million receipts for 80p which all need logging and filing somewhere - anywhere! [...]

While it’s not an especially ethical wedding question, we do get a fair few emails asking about where you’re allowed to get married.  It often seems hugely complicated for something that you’d expect to be quite simple! (Read some of our ‘Where can I get married?’ questions and answers)
So I was thrilled to read this [...]

The search for a green venue began not long after I popped the question to my unsuspecting boyfriend on Leap Year’s Day (29 February).
For those of you who are thinking ‘but you’re the bride’; on a Leap Year girls can propose to boys. And since I didn’t want to wait another four years, I [...]

This is a long overdue post to share all the wondrous details of our two Civil Partnership celebrations in Australia and in the UK.
Venues caused us the biggest headache, as the reasonably priced self-catering options seemed to be limited on both counts. But both turned out to be perfectly suited to the mood and [...]

 
While it may be suffering from the weather a little at the moment (!), the West Country is a wonderful part of England and a popular spot for tying the knot.  Now, thanks to South West Tourism, ethical brides and green grooms have even more reason to head west with this beautiful publication, South West Tourism - [...]

Hello! In my first post as a ‘blogger bride’ I thought I’d fill you in with where we are so far with planning our wedding.
