MY FAVOURITE PIECE OF JEWELLERY

We asked Louise Ferdinando of Ferdinando Jewels to choose her favourite piece that she is bringing to The London Vintage Wedding Fair.
"This Christian Dior 1960's brooch is not only the most romantic piece, the stones are in such beautiful colours, but is an heirloom in the making.  It will last a life time and be a fantastic investment.  But most of all it is just the most beautiful present as a reminder of a wonderful day"
Louise Ferdinando will be at The London Vintage Wedding Fair in the Main Hall or by private appointment on Contact: 07880 622629.

MY FAVOURITE SHOT

  

We asked photographer Gemma of Betti Confetti for her favourite shot: 

"When the girls from The London Vintage Wedding Fair asked me for my favourite shot I thought it was impossible and then I remembered the' yes' moment when I pressed the shutter to get this picture.  

I love it.  It just sums up the anticipation - and then a second later he was larking around with the best man.  If I'd been looking the other way for a couple of seconds I would have missed it.  But I didn't.  See you all at The London Vintage Wedding Fair on November 4th.

A Glimpse of Stocking

"In olden days a glimpse of stocking

Was looked on as something shocking,

But now, God knows,

Anything Goes."

TOP TIP

Big smiles all day on your wedding day.  Quick retouch of lipstick here and there. 

But OMG there is lipstick on my teeth in every photo!

Quick remedy.  Apply lipstick then - this is the funny bit - put your forefinger in your mouth and pull it out.  Any residual lipstick will come away on your finger.

Hey presto not a lippie smudged smile in sight.
