    Wedding favours are something that a lot of couples ask whether they should have or not. I personally think it’s a nice gesture to give your guests a keepsake of the day, but I also know that they can end up being ignored or forgotten about and consequently can feel like a waste of money. This is why I often recommend clients opt for something edible – guests love having something to nibble on after dinner, or they’ll tuck it away to munch on their way home later!

    So today I’m delighted to welcome Tola Popoola from Chocolat a Toi. Tola specialises in creating personalised chocolate wedding favours, and is here to share some more information on her services.

    From time to time we love to showcase some of our favourite suppliers and venues, and today I’m delighted to share with you the work of talented photographer Tim Bowden. I met Tim recently and was instantly captivated by his creative and unobtrusive style of photography.

    By blending into the background and minimising the number of formally posed shots, Tim can capture the magic and emotion of the wedding day as it unfolds. One aspect of Tim’s work that I particularly love is that he avoids using flash, meaning his photographs have a soft, almost painting-like, quality to them:
