How to incorporate an outdoor theme into your stationery

Q – We’re looking for on-trend stationery to match our outdoor themed-wedding. What do you suggest we look for?

"One of the main ways to incorporate your theme into your stationery is colours. Hues can make a huge difference in your invitations etc. Take into consideration the time of year. If you’re getting married in the summer, look at bright whites and flashes of colour, and if your wedding is in the winter, opt for dark reds or blues.

"You can also look at flowers for inspiration. Take another look at your venue, and notice what blooms are around you. If you find some you like, try incorporating them into your stationery.

"A huge trend that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere is greenery. Surround your text with a border of leaves and garlands. After all, you can’t go wrong with crisp white invitations and a woodland garland."

Swansea has been named one of the best food destinations in the UK

Swansea has been named the UK's fifth best food destination outside London, putting it ahead of Worcester, Newport, Wrexham, Perth and Brighton & Hove in a new city-break ranking.

Birmingham took the overall crown, but Swansea's position gives the city a clear food-led break hook for travellers who want a cheaper and easier alternative to the capital.

The British Wedding Tradition Most Guests Never Question

Most wedding guests have heard the phrase "wedding breakfast", but very few stop to question it. After all, the meal is rarely served in the morning.
