Divine Do's...

As you can imagine, it’s been a busy time for P&P recently…venues, menus, shoes, bridesmaids’ dresses – I can understand the need for a wedding planner, although the control freak in me is loving every minute! I’ve come to the conclusion that organising a wedding has more to do with diplomacy than anything else – and obviously ending up with the wedding day you’ve been dreaming of since being a little girl.

You’ll be pleased to know that I’ve got all the fundamentals booked – caterer, photographer, florist, etc. – and can now concentrate on P&P looking sensational and making Green Fingers go weak at the knees on the day.

In my opinion, hair on the day is as important as the dress and can make or break the finished look. Looking natural, elegant and timeless comes at a cost, and even the simplest of ‘dos require hours of preparation.

There are a few fabulous websites which have divine bridal hair accessories – whether you’re looking for a comb, tiara, diamonds, pearls or flowers, there’s something to suit all. My two favourites (I need to retain some mystery for the day!) are Yarwood White and Basia Zarzycka.

Not only are there lots of ideas and styles, but thanks to the close-up images you can see every detail, and they even offer individual commissions if what you’re looking for isn’t there.

Quality is definitely the word here and for something so important on your day it’s definitely worth the cost (or at least that’s what I’m telling Green Fingers...). The Fern Leaf Comb from Yarwood-White is simply stunning and I love Basia’s Starburst – now that’s what I call elegant bling...
