Q - We love the current trend of Lambeth-style wedding cakes! We've only really seen the design on single-layer cakes and we would like a tiered design; will this style work on multiple layers?

Rachel and Graham, of Regency Cakes, says: Absolutely, the Lambeth piping looks great as a multi-tiered wedding cake as you can choose different styles of piping for each tier. It has become popular on heart-shaped cakes but works well on round or even square designs. It can be piped on buttercream cakes or iced cakes, but the level of intricate detail can be higher with an iced finish.

Shoot coordinator, Chloe Edwards at renowned Norfolk wedding venue Applewood Hall, believes your wedding should be as unique as your love story; so created this styled shoot to highlight the venue's potential for all themes and genres. “With our venue being a blank canvas, we offer a space where creativity and individuality can take centre stage,” shares Chloe. “The theme of this styled shoot worked perfectly in showcasing how bold and quirky can work so well in our versatile venue and provides inspiration to couples looking for a more alternative choice for styling and their wedding day overall.

“Electric Romance involved colours that are usually seen to clash with one another, bright neon tones, funky retro stripe prints, and disco vibes. I had seen eye-catching colours being mixed with vintage styles as a popular trend in both home décor and fashion, and that it was filtering into wedding inspiration, so bringing this playful styled shoot together was a labour of love as this style is a personal favourite!” – enjoy!

Amber Cox from Weddings with Amber Cox worked with a team of local suppliers to create this wintry styled shoot at Minstrel Court. Amber tells us: “We wanted to create a stunning winter themed shoot, showing that even if you’re having a wedding near Christmas, it doesn’t need to be full of reindeer and snow. Keeping it some-what traditional with red and green hues, we tied in glitter tablecloths and pearls that brought that extra winter sparkle. The golden hour in the gorgeous winter sunshine was the perfect backdrop for a champagne spray.”

Katy and James met through work and quickly became friends. “We got in touch again a few years later and that initial friendship meant we just felt comfortable together, but it was still so exciting,” says Katy. “I just remember on the first date non-stop smiling and being big kids together at the funfair.”

James proposed on a beach in Hastings, in the same spot where the couple met for their first date. “He had put together a treasure hunt, which led us to discover the ‘treasure’ aka the engagement ring and he popped the question,” shares the bride. “The whole day had been so thoughtfully planned out – it was such a surprise that he had kept very well hidden.”
