Unique Wedding Planning Company

Just a short post today... I'm a busy bee preparing for the Vintage and Handmade Fair in Northampton that's happening in a couple of weeks. My dining room looks like a bombsite! Best clear that up before our halloween party this weekend hadn't I?!

Anyway, I wanted to say a big thank you to Josie at Savior Weddings for writing a feature on my vintage crockery hire company. You can visit their blog here for lots of inspiration. Savior Weddings are a unique wedding planning company based in London - they specialise in unconventional and alternative weddings so if you are thinking of planning something a little different, i'd highly recommend you contact them!

Lola before her makeover!

So, the time has come to show you the new and improved Lola! Here are a few shots of her inside and outside before her makeover...




Hmmmm, what do you think? We thought she needed making a little prettier! So we spent many hours transforming her into the little beauty that she now is. Here's a few photos of us doing some work...


Lots of green and white paint were used... I did far too much painting and sanding for my liking! As soon as we got her home, we stripped her...



We weren't too keen on the upholstery! It had to go! As did the laminate flooring.


Ok, so that's given some idea of all the hard graft we put in! Ready to see the after photos now??
