First Dance Fever
I think saying our vows in an echo-y church in front of our nearest and dearest is nerve racking enough but to add dancing after a Bellini or two into the mix quite rightly can fill us with dread! But now with the help of expert choreographer we can sit back and relax during the wedding breakfast safe in the knowledge that our Viennese Waltz or Thriller routine is faultless!
Jo Richards a personal Trainer who specialises in dance is on hand to take you through your steps…step by step! Jo has performed in a dance troup at the Edinburgh Fringe for the past 3 years and has helped couples choreograph routines from the Foxtrot to the Cha Cha Cha for 6 Years.
Whether you want the easiest of ballroom dances or want to perform a quirky mish mash of songs Jo can guide you through so it’ll be less first dance fever and more Saturday night fever on your big day!MBS x

Bespoke Blooms
In the wake of the Chelsea Flower show it all seems to be about blooms at the moment! Flowers are something of a necessity at your nuptials but what do these flowers say about us? For centuries flowers and their unique meaning have been used as a way of communication known as ‘floriography’.Dating back to biblical times flowers have had meanings attached but no time in history have flowers been so important as the Victorian times and even today the Victorian meaning attached to flowers are still commonplace. So why not make your bouquet bespoke by using flowers with a meaning that is important to you.
