So you think a hen do is your idea of a nightmare? You can't bear the thought of a gaggle of girls, vodka shot after vodka shots, a host of willy straws and a butler in the buff? Oh hang on, that was my hen do..

As Christmas is a coming, I've been having a browse of the old party foods this weekend and naturally found my way over to the Marks and Spencer's website, home of the nibble, and had a look at some wedding cake action...

I saw these and thought of you....

Well, that's it really, I saw these and thought I'd share!

First up, how genius are these cupcakes in a jar? Cupcakes have long been popular at weddings and are often left for guests as favours but of course your guests may not necessarily want to eat them there and then {too busy drinking and dancing right?}

Reading Etc...

As we're having sort of an impromptu 'inspired by interiors' week here on old B&C, I thought I'd share with you my fave thang at the moment that's inspiring me, it's a book {appropriately bought for me for my wedding anniversary by Monsieur G.} and it's called Etc. by Sibella Court...

To say I was excited to discover Rockett St George was an understatement {thanks Twitter!}, I have not been on a homewares website where I have literally wanted to order everything in ages.

A DIY tutorial on how to 'industrialise' some cheap cardboard letters and make them look all zinc-like, and metal, and possibly a little bit like the ones you can get from Anthropologie, but not have to hand over the best part of 20 quid...

Scrap Book- Vintage Industrial
14/11/2011 10:52:36    by Vicky | with 0 comments

Vintage industrial. Buzz words.

Its my new favourite décor style, to the point of obsession actually. We are finally getting round to decorating our office/ study/ junk room and it is going to be in a vintage industrial style complete with steel light shades, white washed exposed brick work and a French 1960's cream painted metal desk.

Street Style Bride
10/11/2011 08:23:34    by Vicky | with 0 comments
Before I was engaged to be married I always thought I would wed in something designer but an off the peg, gorgeous gown that I could wear again and feel ultra glam in. Nothing meringue-y, ruched, hooped or veiled.

Make A Wish...
04/11/2011 08:00:13    by Vicky | with 2 comments
I love favours at weddings and anyone who says they are a waste of money just hasn't got any imagination... I mean, they don't need to cost the earth and who doesnt love to give a little gift? You can incorporate them in to your theme {in terms of colour and style}, make them very personal {eg compilation CD's aka "The Mix Tape", your favourite tipple etc} or of course completely impersonal, silly, romantic, comical.. whatever!

There's nothing that excites me more in wedding blogging than when a designer launches a new collection and in particular if that designer is David Fielden.

So I couldn't really not mention that Bride and Chic is not the only one celebrating it's first year. This weekend also marked the end of one whole year of married life for me and Mr.G, and we marked it with a little Welsh weekend away...
