A couple of weekends ago, I attended the UK Alliance of Wedding Planners UKAWP two day course in Cheadle House, Cheadle. I was in my element - 14 hours of non-stop wedding chatter with like minded wedding obsessed ladies! I had a fabulous time, met some very inspiring ladies and really learnt a lot.
The UKAWP promote professionalism in the wedding industry. I was lucky enough to meet one of their directors, the fabulous Kelly Chandler of The Bespoke Wedding Company, who was our tutor for the two days. Assisting her on day two was the gorgeous Erika Unbehaun of Flutterfly Events
Day two set us the task of meeting with a potential bride at a mock consultation to discuss the day of her dreams. In my case, a Chic Beach Cornish Wedding for June 2011! It was great fun to get into character and plan a sophisticated, lavish affair.
So, here's a sneak peak of my proposal - my Chic Beach Mood Board. Roll on June 2011!!!

ReplyDeleteThe bouquets and table decor could have sea shells and polished glass nuggets /crystals wired through to make them sparkle likean exotic ocean and maybe seashell tea light holders...

Excellent work, Helen. Ella and Liam will be very pleased.
ReplyDeleteThank you, David!
ReplyDeleteMy 'bride' knew exactly what she wanted and specifically requested 'no seashells'!
Otherwise, your exotic ocean sounds fabulous and very very inviting...x
Thank you, Erika, I'm pleased they'll be pleased! x
