COOL FOR KIDS! I’m inviting children to our wedding. I know that the speeches can be boring for little ones. Any suggestions to keep them amused? There are lots of ways you can keep children amused on your big day! Weddings can be a long day for little ones anyway; and keeping them entertained during more boring parts of the day such as speeches can be a challenge. We offer tipi kids corners which offer a cosy space for little ones to play. Areas like this can include games and colouring books/ pencils, you can relax knowing your little ones are keeping busy and most importantly, not causing a fuss! Speeches also offer an hour for younger children to relax and take a nap before the long night ahead. For this reason, we always style kids’ corners with lots of comfy cushions, rugs and blankets to ensure there’s a little space for them to rest if needed. Our kids’ corners can be set up indoors or outdoors, however our top tip would always be to choose an indoor option! The last thing you want is for your guests to be going outside every five minutes to check on the kids. Let’s face it… speeches can be difficult enough without more distractions! By having the kids corner indoors, parents can relax and fully enjoy the speeches knowing their little ones are safe and having fun!

Do you have any ideas of how to do this? Absolutely! I love getting to know my couples and what they’re passionate about. There are many ways to incorporate your love of travel into your cake design from simple table dressing using suitcases and passports as props, to subtle hints using bespoke cake toppers with slogans such as let our adventures begin. Moving on to bespoke cakes, you could choose a novelty style cake, for example, 3D carved suitcases or travel-related stencils or silhouettes. You may wish to reflect your favourite place in the world using colours and associations from that place to tie into your wedding theme for a more subtle nod to your love of travel.

We love the idea of making things personal, so adding a little detail in blue such as covering the bottom of your wedding shoes in blue glitter or hand embroidery in blue with the wedding date inside your wedding dress. A personalised blue denim jacket for brides or flowergirls is a great touch and can be used before and after the wedding too! However, the cutest way to introduce blue, is for your flower girl to be wearing a blue tutu!
