Another wedding mood board for you today: industrial chic. I love the idea of holding weddings and other celebrations in industrial venues - for me they have real beauty, and they provide blank canvases for all sorts of interesting decoration. They also have a lot of history to tell, as so many lives have played out within their walls over the years. This is the look we'd aim for if we . . .
Wedding mood board | Rustic romance
A little dose of mid-week prettiness for you today, with the second of my wedding mood boards (you can see the first one here). This is the look and feel we'll aim for if we choose a rustic venue - perhaps the beautiful old stones of Almonry Barn in the tiny Somerset village of Muchelney, or the stunning orangery at Hestercombe Gardens.

Urban Jungle Bloggers | Botanical zoom
This month's Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge is all about getting up close and showcasing those lovely little plant details that we'd normally miss - the patterns and textures, the colour variations, the tiny hairs on the leaves...
