My Lovely Wedding - Dubai Wedding Planners + Styling
My Lovely Wedding offers styling, wedding planning and lots of pretty inspiration. It started as a blog in May 2012.
Morning lovelies, how are we all today? Another day at home and I’m currently writing this blog from the comfort of my bedroom, in my pjs. Here in Dubai we are still staying home, I can’t even remember how long it’s been now but it feels like bloody ages. Anyway, today I’m sharing post no.3 in the ‘get to know my wedding mates’ blog series. Before we get started I thought I’d share a little story about how Rio and… Keep Reading
Morning lovelies. Today I’m back with my 2nd ‘Get to know my wedding mates‘ and it’s all about Justina from Just Happy Together wedding films. She’s one of the talented creatives that makes this film crew so good, the other half is her Fiancé Evan. They spends half the year in Dubai and the other half in the UK. I’m actually a bit jealous because they have filmed some amazing weddings in the UK. If you have some time click… Keep Reading
Previously posted on February 17, 2016 I met Donna just before the summer and I loved her from day one. I remember on one occasion which was just after I found out I was pregnant, we met at Lime Tree Cafe in Jumeirah and she parked up just before I did. She walked up to say hello and said, ‘I hope you don’t mind, but I’m with my child’. (She brought her son with her) I replied with “I’m also… Keep Reading
Believe it or not my blog about small wedding venues in Dubai gets the most hits daily. I guess there must be a lot of people trying to find that perfect venue for a small wedding which is great for us because we LOVE small weddings. I’ve been to so many hotels and venues in Dubai and I’m about to list my new TOP 5 VENUES FOR SMALL WEDDINGS in Dubai. So let’s get started. The brand new VIDA Hills… Keep Reading
I recently visited Address Dubai Marina, a venue that I haven’t been to in quite a while. While wedding season is quiet, I’m using my time wisely and reconnecting with venues and vendors before the season kick starts again. The Address Dubai Marina wouldn’t be a venue at the top of my ‘must see’ list because most of our weddings are outdoors, but I like it. It has a huge ballroom that can accommodate 500-600 guests with a decent sized… Keep Reading
I recently visited the new Vida Hills and I was so impressed. Every inch of the hotel is shiny and new and it’s quite obvious that the interior design team have done an extremely good job at making this new property inviting, cool and comfortable. The hotel isn’t huge and when you first arrive it feels a little strange because the reception is on the 1st floor, but once you step out of the elevator on level 1, you instantly feel relaxed….

A few weeks back I spent the morning at The Address Downtown having breakfast which ended in a tour of the beautiful hotel. It was the first time I’d been back since it re-opened and I was pleasantly surprised at the stunning marble finishing’s in the lobby. It’s exactly what you’d expect from a luxury Dubai hotel in Downtown Dubai, and even though it doesn’t have a ballroom it has so many areas which would be perfect for smaller events and… Keep Reading
Back in February a bunch of talented souls came together to create some magic, and today we are sharing that with you. Monica, the mastermind behind the shoot talks about the inspiration and the beauty of ‘Lavender Feels‘. Whenever planning a photo shoot the first step is a concept. Once you have a concept, I think it’s important to think about the feeling you want to portrait. With that in mind, the team you invite to “play” is essential as… Keep Reading
Magnolia is by far one our favorite wedding venues in Dubai. We have created so many pretty set ups there and most of them all had their own twist. I personally favor wood chairs and simple off white linen with lots greenery but we have been lucky enough to have some clients with a love for color and all things fun. Last November Kara and I helped Tim and Yurie with their wedding at Magnolia, and to be honest we didn’t… Keep Reading
Hey hey, The last few weeks have been rather busy and the highlight was when I got together with a bunch of cool vendors and styled a shoot at Arabian Ranches Golf Club. My week started off with coffee (obviously) followed by a flower collection and a full day of prep for last Mondays photo shoot at Arabian Ranches Golf Club. The fabulous international wedding photographer; Maddy Christina flew over to Dubai to create some pretty images which we are so excited to… Keep Reading
