What better way to end the week than with introducing you to some utterly brilliant wedding suppliers? These lovely wedding folk have recently joined the WWW Supplier Love page; a dedicated wedding directory for the coolest and most talented wedding suppliers.
This month we have the wedding gift list, rings, photo booth, venue, stationery, entertainment and make up SORTED. Oh yes. Simply click through to their websites or follow them on their social networks to find out even more. They love working with WWW readers and cannot wait to hear from you. Pop over to the Supplier Love page to view the rest of the WWW family too. Happy planning.
Patchwork is the only gift list that lets your wedding guests contribute cash, time and skills to help make something amazing happen.
Set up a Honeymoon Fund:
Create a patchwork to show your guests your dream honeymoon as a collection of images so they can choose which part of the trip to treat you to – £200 for a night in a hotel, £50 for dinner or £5 for beers on the beach.
Collect cash towards one big gift:
Invite friends and family to chip in towards the one thing you really want – whether it’s a new sofa, a work of art or even help buying your own home. Creating a patchwork is easy and with a Pinterest style layout it’s fun for friends to contribute, too.
Ask friends to help make and do
If you’re planning a DIY wedding and want help instead of gifts, Patchwork lets you share your vision for the big day, so friends can choose whether to bring a bottle, make a cake, do the decorations or promise to DJ.
Guests can leave messages with their gifts. And you can keep track of the things people fund, make and do in your account, so it’s easy to say thanks.
You don’t need to sign up or pay an upfront fee to start creating a patchwork so try it out today.

As you coast gently downhill from the granite-speckled heights and wild, sweeping contours of Bodmin moor, the open expanses give way to a dense wooded valley. In a wonderfully secluded spot, where lush hills tumble into the idyllic river valley below and a picture-perfect patchwork of orchards and meadows cloaks the horizon, you’ll find The Green. A ready-made wedding village, The Green is a wholly private and endlessly pretty place to get married. Whether it’s a large-scale traditional affair, a cosy DIY country celebration or a laid back festival-style party, the ethos is one of flexibility. A series of options are available depending on the scale of your celebration. Opt for an exclusive hire wedding and enjoy having the venue to yourselves for up to 120 guests and accommodation for 32 guests for up to three days. If you’re planning something more intimate, a wedding in the modish climes of the house, with its five-star comforts and moorland vistas, is a dreamy option for up to 20 guests. Or, for something smaller still, celebrate in a cottage with up to six guests.
The house and two cottages offer beautiful options for intimate ceremonies; perhaps throw open the doors and marry before the valley views. For a larger scale ceremony, there’s the wedding barn – a rustic space with original beams, which can be draped with bunting, scattered with hay bales or designed according to your wedding whimsy. Similarly, the Green Room is a bright, contemporary space, which serves as a blank canvas and can be tailored according to your wedding style; you might choose to extend the room with a marquee and hold your wedding reception there. Or embrace this rural sanctuary in all its glory by tying the knot in the beautiful oak arbour before jaw-dropping views across the valley. Spill outside into the meadow for your drinks reception and revel in views across the Cheesewring and Sharp’s Tor, and dance the night away under a veil of stars. Acre upon acre of wildly beautiful countryside, which stretches as far as the eye can see, is yours to roam and make memories with your nearest and dearest before you have to tear yourself away.

Finally wedding MUSIC to enjoy, not endure…
Wedding Jam offers the very best DJs and live acts to help you create your perfect wedding. After years spinning records in the coolest clubs and the best bars, our DJs started playing at select weddings. At first it was just for friends, then the word spread about our savvy group of disc jockeys who put music first.
Between the Wedding Jam DJs and musicians we have played at weddings all over the country, but we’ve also appeared at some of Europe’s best clubs and festivals. This doesn’t mean that we’ll be turning your wedding into rave (unless you want us to!) but it does mean that we have a deeper understanding of what makes people dance and the art of DJing.
