We'd love you to vote for our friend and supporter, Fiona-Grace, who is an up-and-coming talent on the Jazz scene (she also happens to be my cousin). You may recognise her from modelling some of our beautiful dresses including Mary and Helene on our website. It's just as simple as emailing [email protected] with the following message:

Dear Have You Heard.

I'd like to vote for Fiona-grace Hubery to appear on the Have You Heard charity album.

Many thanks,

This is "Act 18" by Have You Heard on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

Flower crowns, flower crowns, flower crowns... oh, did I say, FLOWER CROWNS! :D

It's no secret that I am obsessed with flower crowns. I don't know exactly how many I own, but it's definitely in double figures. If you're the kind of bride that doesn't want to wear a veil or tiara, why not consider one of these beauties?

I've just had a lovely email from one of our 2015 brides, Nancy, who has left us this lovely review.

"We had such a lovely time when Kirsty came to my house with her beautiful range of vintage dresses. Kirsty put everyone at their ease, and the tea and cakes served in beautiful vintage crockery really added to the experience. I have been to several places to try on vintage dresses, and this was by far the most relaxed and fun experience I have had. Also, the dresses were very reasonably priced."

I love getting inspiration from unexpected places. Episode 3 of Father Brown on BBC iPlayer turned up not just one but two stunning vintage styles in the shape of a 1920s and a 1950s wedding gown. Which one is your favourite?
