Good morning Sunday people.

Gosh it’s hard getting back into a non festive routine, isn’t it!

So perhaps you’ve forgotten about the fabulous competitions we’ve got going on (snaps fingers!)

You can win with the fabulous Betti Confetti, you can win big!

The package is for the whole shebang, which includes:

- A pre-wedding shoot – to get to know me, discuss your wedding plans, have some fun, feel more relaxed in front of the camera – and get some great, natural looking portrait shots as a couple

- A complete day of shooting on the wedding day, roughly 8 hours – from getting ready to key moments of the evening.

- Photos on a disc (around 400), which you can print and share

- Plus a ‘vintage collection’ – of around 100 photos – edited for a subtle vintage feel (but you’ll always have the originals too)

and also with the lovely Pretty Please Events, I can’t stress how much I wish I’d had some real professional help on my wedding day so this really is an opportunity you don’t want to miss!

Pretty Please Events are so fabulous because they are offering 2 prizes and love for everyone who enters.

Winner:  10 hours of wedding planning free, worth £150
(does not include on the day coordination)

Runner up:  50% off on the day coordination (was £300, now £150)

Everyone who enters gets 10% off any package.

So fly and enter these competitions. Honestly, they are some of the best around at the moment. 

Well thanks to the delicious random number generator we have some lovely winners!

I have to be honest but I’ve always been a bit of a snob when it comes to wedding shows. However, some very clever ladies took me aside and explained a few things and well I think I’m almost a convert. We shall see in February when I hope to see you at The National Wedding Show.

And today I have a special offer and a competition for you! You lucky things! So I better see you there!
