last minute details for a winter wedding

Just had a browse through 'Cox & Cox' to see what little finishing touches they had for a 'winter wedding' - I love the idea of the chocolate moulds to make tiny little individual chocolates for your guests. The willow hearts would make perfect hanging decorations with ribbons to suit the colour palette of your day. Paisley crackers and mistletoe light garlands, silver birch candles, indian silver hearts, limeflower and lavender soap, and french handmade soaps that come in ticking bags,.....all are wonderful gift ideas for guests!!!!!! take a look................

Vintage Crockery - The English Tea Party


I have just been chatting to a client and we were discussing using vintage crockery with The Peonie Collection:


I mentioned the company, The English Tea Party, as they have a fabulous web site. Take a look and be inspired!

The vintage crockery has been carefully sourced by Victoria Moy. Her collections are a mix of vintage and contemporary vintage crockery. I am sure she will have a collection to suit your needs.
