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.

New website and cool new photo booth from Jeremy Standley




We are loving Jeremy Standley's new look website, it is clear and very user friendly and just fab to be honest, although I am sure there has been sweat, blood and tears long the way as the rebranding was taking place but well worth the finished result.


Being in the creative industry means a constant change, developing a strong brand image that you can live with is never easy as we are always changing our minds (I am a Libran as well which is a double whammy!) so I am personally impressed with this very well thought out, clear and dynamic website.


Even more excitement and we are soooo looking forward to a demo, is Jeremy's new photo booth, we cannot wait to have a go and really must blog the photos when the A team get in it, I can imagine us all jostling for space ;)


Knowing Jeremy as well as I do now, a lot of thought has gone into getting the right product and this new photo booth sounds amazing and great fun for weddings. High quality images (of course knowing Jeremy) online and on Facebook within 48 hours, a neat and attractive set up and no electricity needed (always a good thing in Spain!)


We are all getting geared up now for our wedding season and with all these new products and my cutting of the jelly wedding we really are very excited!

Designing New Wedding Office Spaces for Women

I am currently designing a new wedding office space :)

Not for me, but for a good friend of mine, Heather at Fiestasol. I am hugely excited about this new venture that Heather has created and more will be revealed over the next few months as we lead up to the opening of Heather and Alex's new venture.

It probably sounds strange that one wedding planning company is designing another wedding planning company's office space, but as we all work together in wedding world, good friendships are formed, despite what people might like to think that we all run head to head we don't!! (Well some choose to but that is their choice!)

We work together all the time, I run a very design led wedding planning company that tends to specialise in the high end weddings and event and floral decoration and Heather runs a very successful catering and food led wedding planning company that excels in villa weddings.

We often book each other to fill in the gaps, we all work together with the same highly professional tried and tested suppliers and are like a little family. We swops notes, exchange wedding world gossip, chat about being working mums, and we do truly believe that it is better to work like this as we have forged a very strong network of lovely suppliers and can of course offer a very high standard of service for weddings and events between us and support each other.

It is interesting researching a very girly design led working space and ideas for Heather and I was fascinated to find out that Lynne Franks has created the BHive business club for women, offering beautifully designed feminine office spaces for Britain's brightest business women who want somewhere creative and inspirational to work in and bring clients too.

Forget the dark woods and libraries with leather chairs, we are going white, crystals, flowers, fabulous fabrics, cushions and comfortable bright working and meeting spaces.

Today I created our first mood board for this concept of creating a wedding led office space, to work in, to see clients in and to hold food tasting and decoration presentations in.
There will be much more research and planning as I help Heather put together her dream so of course we will keep you updated on progress and will inform you as soon as Heather announces her opening or any more news on this very exciting project.
Wedding World will be very much on the map in Marbella by the summer!

The Wedding Mist!

The wedding mist descended upon us at the end of May and we have created some fabulous weddings over the past few weeks, dotted of course around the World Cup.
Many photos to come soon as the photographers we have worked with send over images to us which will of course involve lots of nagging!
We are also creating some fabulous parties this year as well, perhaps to do with football, so watch this space!

The Wedding Season Starts


As our wedding season here in Marbella starts we were delighted to create and decorate this fabulous wedding for one of our clients here in Marbella. The stunning setting was at his private home here in Marbella situated right by the sea.

It was a three day event with a beach theme using starfish as their main decorations with red and white as the main wedding colours.
We created a tropical theme for their pre wedding spanish style party with many flower displays for the house and the tables for the first day followed by some fabulous decorations for the actual wedding day including the beautiful setting with the gazebo and the topiary trees lining the pool either side to set off the gazebo. We used the shell and starfish theme throughout the wedding from the ceremony candle to the table centrepieces which were scattered with small starfish and table crystals.
A beautiful and fabulous wedding which we thoroughly enjoyed creating and of course the sun is finally shining again in Marbella.
Our thanks to Jennifer at Jeremy Standley for coming along to take some fantastic photos.
There are many more to come!
