The Strangest Places You Met Your Partner

The Strangest Places You Met Your Partner

As part of Bride & Groom Direct's recent competition, we asked our customers where they met their future spouses. Perhaps unsurprisingly, we found that the top four places to meet ‘the one’ were on a night out (24%), at work (21%), in school (12%), or online (11%), respectively.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, so naturally, it’s one of the most magical times to tie the knot. However, there’s a fine line between decorating your big day like an enchanting winter wonderland and it resembling Santa’s grotto. But don’t fear; with Bubblegum Balloons’ top tips, your wonderful winter wedding will look super-stylish and chic, without a Santa in sight.

Are you dreaming of a white wedding? An all-white colour scheme is clean, classy and timeless – especially for a magical Christmas ‘do.

Insiders Guide To Wedding Photography Styles

You’ve found your dream partner to spend the rest of your life with, now for the next major decision, who to capture your big day? Good wedding photographers can get booked up months and even years in advance so it’s a great thing to get ticked off the list after you’ve chosen your venue. 

Before looking for your photographer you may want to decide whether you want film or digitalphotography. Choosing film can add a beautiful finish to your photos that is often difficult to match with digital, but it also adds to the photographers costs and can up your spend by around an extra £1000.
