If I Was Getting Married Here...

Following on from our bridal party styling at Barton Manor, this time we’re talking florals.

Think pinks, reds, corals and ivory, loads of different textures and shapes.

Dresses like that? 1840 has your bridal party completely covered. The bride in A1485 by , bridesmaids in Lyra and our teen in Mara, both in rose pink, by .

Everything else, the styling, the planning, the coordination, all of it, is what we do here at Wed & Prosper. From the first mood board to the final candle being lit on the night, we bring days like this to life.

We drink a lot of espresso martinis. Like, a genuinely questionable amount.

So instead of pretending we’re going to cut back, we’ve decided to lean all the way in and take it on tour.
Around the UK and beyond to try and rate every espresso martini we can get our hands on. Different bars, different cities, different takes on the classic, all getting the honest verdict from us.

Consider this your sign to send us your recommendations. If you know a spot with a seriously good espresso martini, we want to know about it!

We took a trip to the Madi Lane buying event, and it’s safe to say our next bridal collection is going to be full of stunning wedding dresses. As a bridal boutique, this is one of our favourite parts of the job, hand picking new bridal gowns that we know our brides to be are going to fall in love with.

Madi Lane is known for its romantic, modern bridal designs, and this season’s edit is full of dreamy wedding dress silhouettes, from sleek and simple styles to more detailed, statement bridal gowns. We cannot wait to bring these new wedding dresses into the shop for you to try.

Follow along to see the new collection land at 1840, and keep an eye out for when you can book your bridal appointment to try these dresses for yourself.

This beautiful gown is Tessa by MADI LANE BRIDAL | Wedding Dresses, worn by our real bride Danielle

Danielle told us: "Lovely and welcoming, felt completely comfortable throughout the appointment and managed to find my dream dress!"

Ethereal and romantic, Tessa is an A line gown with illusion lace detailing, off shoulder sleeves and a sweeping illusion train, and it was the perfect choice for Danielle's special day.

We love seeing our real brides feeling confident, radiant and completely themselves, and Danielle absolutely shone in Tessa.

wtf is... a bridal appointment that actually feels good.

No pressure to buy one dress. No fussing over a veil you don’t want. No appointment fee. No prosecco free shopping (we would never). Just good dresses, good drinks, and your people around you.

This is what dress shopping should feel like. Book your appointment and come find out for yourself.

Build your bridal party!

If I were to get married at Barton Manor this week, this is exactly how I’d style my bridal party.

The brief: romantic English country, timeless, slightly old money.

Starting with the bride in the gorgeous A1485 by

The bridesmaids are dressed in Lyra in rose pink, and our teen in Mara, the same rose pink shade, all by

I wanted everything to feel cohesive without being too matchy matchy, and this colour palette works so beautifully against Barton Manor.

Now I need to know: which dress is your favourite?

Meet one of our new arrivals by , a wedding dress that proves structure and softness can go hand in hand.

Crafted in Mikado, this elegant ballgown wedding dress features a softly ruched bodice that shapes and defines the silhouette, while delicate pearl and beaded lace detailing peeks along the neckline for a luminous, romantic accent. A sculpted basque waist elongates the form beautifully before flowing into a full, sweeping skirt, with a sheer lace back that mirrors the bodice detailing for a cohesive, romantic finish.

Structured yet romantic, elegant yet full of detail, this gown is a ballgown you’ll fall in love with from every angle.

Could this be your dream wedding dress? Visit our Isle of Wight bridal boutique and experience R3979 for yourself.

Today we’re celebrating a woman who taught us that kindness costs nothing and sparkle is never too much. In loving memory of Dolly Parton, here are a few of our favorite quotes from a true icon. Find out who you are and do it on purpose. The world lost a legend this week, and we think everyone should try to be a little more Dolly.
