LOOKING FOR SOME WEDDING INSPIRATION

16th February 2023

GET SOME HERE WITH SAVE THE DATE MAGAZINE Sometimes when you look at where you came from, and where you are now you realise that you’ve met some wonderful people along the way. We’ve been working with the amazing Lydia & Abbi since the early days of Save the Date magazine, way back in 2009, when Hummingbird was just a little fledgling new business too! They’d spotted a gap in the market for stylish, inspiring local wedding inspiration and so Save the Date was born, and we loved it. They came to visit us in our first little studio, when we…

Wedding Trends 2023

20th December 2022

Wedding trends are always evolving and emerging and the 2023 season is no different… except it kind of is! We’ll remember 2022 as the year of post-pandemic weddings and after all the restrictions with so many weddings in such a short space of time, we’re set to see the biggest change ever in the traditional UK wedding. It’s time for something new, a shake-up of weddings as we know them and so it’s going to be about re-inventing the wedding to suit YOUR needs and making it a truly personal and an ultimately intimate experience for your guests. From simplifying your…

Today 25th November! Swap Black Friday For Colour Friday This Year And Support Small Businesses Like Ours It’s that time of year again, when the word Black Friday floods our inbox and shoppers seem to go a little bit crazy, lured into discounts and bargains by the big boys which in truth are never quite as good as they appear! Last year, Holly Tucker launched Colour Friday to kickstart a retail revolution for Christmas shoppers. Rather than taking part in the mass consumption of Black Friday, she encouraged the nation to celebrate the colour and creativity that small businesses bring instead,…

17th September 2022

Our thoughts are with the Royal Family during this sad time and we join the nation in thanking the Queen for all her incredible service, and as Paddington Bear so touchingly said ‘Thank you Ma’am for everything’. King Charles announced a bank holiday for the state funeral, so as we join the rest of the country in national mourning, we just wanted to let you know that there will be slight delays to the dispatch of your orders during this time. Thank you for your understanding.
