London Diamond Master Class

It has been a long time since my last blog. I have been so busy with weddings lately..... it was nice to take a trip to London last month to attend a diamond master class with my fellow UKAWP wedding planners.

We sat around the table, in a beautiful library setting, learning all about diamonds from expert Vashi Dominguez. A lovely, tranquil moment mid wedding season…

The stones Vashi’s team work with are sourced directly from the mines and cutters themselves, allowing him to offer customers the highest quality diamonds and rings at the lowest prices.

We learned all about the Four C’s and what Carat, Colour, Clarity and Cut actually mean, and of course we got to touch and feel some lovely pieces.

Vashi, and his team’s, passion about what he does is contagious and his desire to provide stunning customer service fits beautifully with the ethos of the UKAWP and how our members like to work with clients.

Thank you so much Vashi and team – I am sure many of us will be in touch soon.

Vashi is offering all our readers an fantastic 10% discount for his entire collection and for bespoke creations. Just enter UKAWP at the online checkout at Diamond Manufacturers (until July 2013) or Vashi (from July 2013).

Art Deco Accessories....

Whilst eagerly awaiting the release of The Great Gatsby film I thought I would offer some vintage Art Deco style accessories for you to lust over. This theme is definitely here to stay for this year and next.  Think glamour, glitz and feathers - it really is a fabulous theme to work into your wedding.

Cuffs by Johanna Johnson

 

Cuffs are a perfect way of dressing up a very simple gown without going overboard on accessories - they look timeless and elegant and totally capture the 1920's fashion. Dare to be different.

 

 

By adding a beaded scarf like this one also by Johanna Johnson you can create a gorgeous accessory.
