Vintage Tea Party Co.

For those of you that have never been to Carmarthen in Wales it could be described as "up and coming" in terms of fashion so I was thoroughly excited to see a Vintage Crockery shop pop up on Mansel Street just off the main high street.

The Vintage Tea Party Co. hire Vintage Crockery for weddings and special occasions and are doing so well that they have opened a little boutique selling pretty home wares to accompany their vintage china

 

 

If you're in the neighbourhood you could drop in or alternatively look them up at their tranquil website http://www.thevintageteapartyco.com.

Street Art in Bristol

Again apologies for not posting anything dressy but I've been making and making and I can't let you see the dresses until the weddings happen next year (they will be worth the wait and I'm already hatching a plan to get some lovely vintage dresses headed your way so please hang on in there!)
So for now I thought I would share with you some spectacular street art that is on display near the Old Fire Station in the centre of Bristol. It really is breath taking, and if I was looking at having an urban wedding this summer I would make everyone head down there for some amazing and unique wedding photos;

Hanging plants for an Urban Reception?

I really like the idea of hanging plants within an urban environment to take the grey edge off. I think it could work really well if you had an out door space for your inner city wedding reception.

 

 

 

 

There is a whole lot more and I can't recommend enough that you pop down to see it if you're in town as the scale makes it really amazing.

Something vintage next time - promise
