A Stunning Peacock Themed Wedding at Finca de la Concepcion, Marbella





I am not sure where to start with this stunning Peacock theme wedding we created here at the Finca de la Concepcion.

We were working with such a fantastic couple and we had so many fabulous details incorporated into this wedding it has taken me two days since Jeremy sent me these gorgeous images, of delighted oohs and aahs as I decided what photos to blog and share with you. I do like to portray the day as it unfolds so I hope I have done this here for you and can share all the fabulousness with you! You must head over though as well so see the fantastic slideshow Jeremy has put together as well.


After months of planning and lots of work, sometimes we feel like the couple themselves where the day has whizzed by and we have not enjoyed seeing all the details as we have been so busy setting everything up and quite often very hot, so it is wonderful for us to receive the images of our weddings to see all our hard work and efforts in action.


I would love to describe all the wonderful ideas we put together in the hope you will see it is the attention to details that truly pull a delightful wedding together, we created everything to coordinate with Jen´s Peacock theme from the peacock confetti cones, brilliantly created by Anoulka, to the stationery, table seating plans, our fans were decorated with coordinating ribbons and peacock themed tags as were the napkins.


If you are currently looking for your wedding stationery you must check out our hugely talented Anoulka´s website which was born out of creating stationery, table seating plans, etc for our weddings. Anoulka is beyond fantastic and if you are looking for something very different you must head over to her website for any stationery requirements.


The bridal flowers were created with green cymbidium orchids, purple alliums and peacock feathers and finished with the beautiful turquoise ribbons that matched the bridesmaids dresses to a tee.


Green hydrangeas were used in the centrepieces along with purple orchids and more peacock feathers just enough to add an accent and we created our lovely themed candy bar to coordinate with the wedding, as much as you can with marshmallows! But we had turquoie chocolate hearts and our themed and personalised candy bags.


We decorated this stunning venue with a lovely chillout area and dressed the tables and chairs with our turquoise linens and sashes, added in our famous lanterns and candles for the late night twinkling and the end result was stunning.


Our hugest big hugs to Jeremy as always for understanding me and the fact I love my work and glorify in seeing it all come to life afterwards, it makes my day ;)


My big thanks also to Heather at Fiestasol and her team that are just fantastic, time and time again with their fabulous catering team and have to say die for food! Heather for her trust in me as well when the tough gets going!


Last but not least my wonderful friend Fi and her gorgeous cakes, do I sound like the Oscars!


A fantastic wedding run by a very professional team and we are delighted to share this to you.

A Magical Moroccan Wedding













Since starting my wedding and event business here in Marbella, I have been extremely fortunate to meet some hugely talented and charming people.


An interesting observation I have made along the way is the difference between the way creative people approach their work to the non-creative brains. The creative people I work with are completely devoted to their professions, it is not a job, it is a passion.


Andreas Holm is one of these people, he is an amazing photographer based in here Southern Spain and has photographed some of our weddings and will be photographing more this year which we are excited about. I am in love with these stunning photos Andreas took of a wedding in Marrakech, Morocco. They capture a beautiful day and many details evocative of the country and the couple, you have got to visit Andreas Holm's blog to see all these photos, they are beautiful.


Another reason for me to go to Morocco, the day I do go will be a big celebration as I have been waffling on about this now for ages and I look at it everyday from my house!

Free Wedding Websites




I think it is a fabulous idea to have a personalised wedding website, especially if you are having a destination wedding, as you can load up so much information on there for your guests travelling in from afar.

I have been chatting with one of my brides, Lauren, about creating one and found this fabulous free wedding website page this morning on Wedding Nouveau. In fact I am sure if you google free wedding websites loads would come up but I have to be out this morning to my accountants so dare not do this as I would be here all morning!
Wedding Nouveau offer these very stylish sites that include features such a photo galleries, guest books, online RSVP and group emailing. You can put on directions to your wedding, recommended places to stay, local useful numbers such as taxi's, restaurants, etc, how easy does this make your life!
