Real Quirky Floral Fan Wedding: Emily & Neil

There's something hugely original about this wedding, and although I don't know the couple personally, I'm pretty sure it reflected their quirky, creative, characters. Emily and Neil celebrated their big day in a garden on a day much warmer than today (although that wouldn't be hard, we're shivering in our boots today in London). Instead of flowers, Emily's bridesmaids carried fans, and instead of a diamond solitaire, Emily wore a giant cocktail ring. Their cake topper was a pair of cool bunnies in shades - like I said - original and quirky. Other details to copy include Emily's gorgeous layered dress and simple plaited hair, plus the beribboned maypoles - and check out the cool fonts they chose for their stationery. A multitude of thank you's to the team at Our Labor of Love for their gorgeous pics - I'm particularly loving the umbrella shot at the end - soooo old Hollywood glamour it hurts!

Real Monochrome Modern-Themed Wedding - Jenna & Mori

The bride's shoes are reason enough to blog this wedding! They're amazing winged numbers, and they make very happy. Jenna and Mori chose a mostly monochrome theme to their wedding, with flashes of orange and pink, and a typography motif. I'm loving the gorgeous guest book with raise letters and the personalised invitation suite. Other stealworthy ideas included the rosette buttonholes and the monochrome ribbon around Jenna's bouquet - both would be easy to DIY. The numbered water bottles are a fantastic way to name the tables, and I'm super-keen on the loaves of bread served on slate platters. Altogether a fabulous affair, pictured beautifully by Our Labour of Love.

Real Sunshine Yellow Wedding - Marchelle & Iain

Some brides really know how to rock their wedding look. I'm sure I looked lovely on my wedding day, thanks to a heavenly Delphine Manivet wedding dress and my French hairdresser Joel, but I didn't come anywhere near the fierce, fabulous awesomeness of Marchelle on her big day. Just check our her hot red lips, her skyscraper Christian Louboutin heels, and her beautiful blonde bangs. Other fabulous details include the cluster of sunshine-clad bridesmaids and their luxurious rose bouquets, tied with turquoise ribbon. I'm loving the contrast of the two colours - such an easy wedding idea to replicate. Stunning pictures published with thanks to Our Labour of Love.

Real Rock n' Roll Wedding: Emily & Jasen

Strong lust for this gorgeous wedding in the mist. Stunning couple Emily and Jasen celebrated their big day in autumn style with dozens of fabulous design-details worth stealing.  Lets just start with the cute badges, peg-cake toppers and Chinese lantern table arrangements, and move quickly on to the free candy-bar, table stationery and hilarious direction sign - I'm loving it all! A huge thank you to the team at Our Labour of Love for their beautiful pictures. So often wedding photography is predictable and formulaic, and I think you'll agree Whitney and Jesse totally break the mould with their brilliant work.

Real Sea-Side Wedding: Jamie & Adam

If you plump for a nautical theme, it'll carry you on a huge wave (sorry) of inspiration. There's almost too many motifs to choose from, starting with blue and red, moving through stripes and then anything fish-themed. The secret is to only pick a few details, or else your big day will end up feeling like a Brighton fish-and-chip restaurant - all theme and no substance. Quirky couple Jamie and Adam totally kept their wedding within the boundaries of chic, using only a life buoy and the lighthouse as props, and serving an amazing lobster lunch for their guests. I love how they've used lots of different flowers, while keeping the colour palette plain white, and their fab retro car is just the bomb! Big thanks to the team at Our Labour of Love for their gorgeous photographs.
