Wedding Diaries | how to pick a wedding DJ

Ok, so I’ve been a bit slack on my Wedding Diaries since publicly exclaiming that I was going add more editions to the series. Honestly, wedding planning is so hectic, and with the number of guests we are having (around 350 to give you a rough ballpark figure), everything needs to be extra meticulous. Forget things being meticulous for the couple that are actually getting married, but when it comes to Asian Weddings your shindig needs to top the previous one you’ve attended. Whilst I’ve been busy planning the wedding, which is just over 8 months away now (eek!), I’ve had to do endless amounts of research. Top of my priority list from the beginning was researching as to how to pick a wedding DJ for the reception. This being top of the list, as to me, the one thing I wanted to not restrict myself too much with a…

Review | Oz Naturals

Oz Naturals* have recently introduced a new Hyaluronic Acid Serum for all your beauty needs to not only add moisturise to the skin, but also as a great tool for ironing out fine lines even at a young age. I mentioned within a previous post how important it was to start young with your anti-ageing regime, and there are a selection of great products that can add to a pamper routine in a vital way. Using only the highest quality ingredients, the serum aims to hydrate your skin deeply reviving your skin back to plump youthfulness. We all know the benefits of adding Vitamin C to our diets, and by having it in your moisturiser it’s a great way to feed your skin once, or twice, a day without the need to buy fresh fruit. Think about how you feel after taking a bite into an orange, it’s refreshing isn’t…

Gift Guide | Ted Baker Clerkenwell Core

Christmas is literally just around the corner, by literally I mean just over 5 weeks. I actually cannot believe how quickly this year has flown by, and as per usual, I am so behind on buying Christmas gifts and making any sort of Christmas holidays arrangements. It’s almost as if December 2014 just passed and now we are at December 2015 in the blink of an eye. For me, there’s always a constant struggle in deciding and then finding the perfect gift for loved ones. I always want something that I am gifting someone to have purpose and meaning, and not just buy them something for the hell of it. With just over 5 weeks left, now is the perfect time to be browsing websites for gift ideas and matching those ideas to individuals. Fear not, however, if you are struggling to find something oh so special for someone as I’ve put…

Travel | 4×4 Atlas Mountains in Morocco

Getting some winter sun in is great during the winter months. I managed to get away for a week to Morocco, a month or so ago, and stayed at Medina Gardens. I didn’t really want my trip to Morocco to just be all about hitting the sun rays, and relaxing by the pool. As fun as that would be, I also wanted to get some culture in on my trip, and I didn’t mean just by visiting the souks. As the hotel was one that was exclusive to Thomson, there were a number of excursions available to us at pretty reasonable prices. It was really dependant on what type of excursions interested you, or what you wanted out of your holiday. The excursions included guided tours around the souks, spa days or excursions to tourist attractions within Marrakech city. As both Ankit and I look for thrill when we go on holiday…

Wedding Diaries | 2016 bridesmaid dresses inspiration

The themes for 2016 weddings are already out, and we haven’t even hit the end of the year yet. But with wedding’s taking so much of our time, to plan to perfection, quieter wedding seasons like autumn and winter are the best ones to start thinking about what your wedding party will be dressed in. For the bride, apart from her own outfit, bridesmaid dresses are next on the agenda to be decided upon. But how exactly do we narrow it down for bridesmaids dresses when there are so many different styles. I’ve put together a list together for the best 2016 bridesmaid dresses inspiration. I for one am currently struggling to come to a decision as to what I want my bridesmaids to wear – needing to decide on the neck line, the cut, the colour. It’s bad enough needing to narrow my bridesmaids down to an acceptable number! Aisle…
