The Love List {19 May 2012}

Happy weekend, SouthBound Brides! It’s been an awesome first week here on SBB, and I’m so grateful for all of your support! I can’t wait to share more loveliness with you next week, but in the meantime, make sure you’re the first to know about new posts by following on Twitter, liking the Facebook page (where you’ll also find a feed to the blog), or subscribing by email. And if you’re in the UK, sign up to find out more about our upcoming events by filling in the online form here.

Here’s the highlights from SBB this week: We started with gorgeous autumn vineyard inspiration, and continued the autumn goodness with this incredible Cape wedding. We also visited with the elephants in a very special Garden Route celebration, and then headed back to the Cape for a sophisticated wedding with Italian flair. Not to mention a farmer’s market-themed mood board, Pantone colour inspiration, and Johanna Johnson’s gorgeous art deco dresses.

Another highlight of the week for me as that the lovely Christie over on Hindsight Bride featured me as part of her Follow Friday bloggers series. Thanks so much, Christie!

Here’s my highlights from the rest of the web…

The Love List {19 Nov 2011}

Happy Saturday, friends, hope you’ve been having a wonderful day! My housemates have been throwing themselves out of planes today for charity while I’ve been much less energetic, but just as busy rounding up all the latest loveliness for you from the world of weddings. Have a look at these lovelies…

The Love List {12 Nov 2011}

Happy weekend friends! Hope you’re having a lovely time! I’m having a chilled one, catching up on the work I couldn’t do this week when the power was out and cuddling up in this winter weather we are suddenly having. And tomorrow, I get to go along to a shoot organised by the lovely Louise of Bijoux Bride – you’ll have to wait to see what she has in store, but if you’re like to see some of her styling handiwork, check out this fab Art Deco shoot she posted this week. I absolutely love it!

It’s been an awesome week on the blog, with at least one special announcement I am still glowing about. Here’s more things that I’ve loved on the web this week…

And there’s a little something for Sunday as well, so pop in then to see what I’ve got planned.

Here are my favourites from around the web this week!

The Love List {1 Oct 2011}

Yay, it’s the weeeeeekeeeeend! Hope you all have something lovely planned. I’m still in getting things done mode, and I’m also hoping to pop up to the National Wedding Show on Sunday. Will any of you be there? If you have any time (just five minutes!) this weekend, don’t forget to answer our Reader Survey.

Right, here’s what caught my fancy this week. There’s quite a few little DIYs this round – I love finding these little (achievable) details that I know would look amazing in the right wedding!

The Love List {10 Sept 2011}

Hello, lovelies! Hope you’re having a brilliant weekend – and I bet you rugby widows are pleased that the games are on so early in the morning so you get your boys back for the rest of the day! I’m amping for tomorrow, and will be backing our boys 100%. Come on, Boks! Anyway, here’s my favourites from the week that was.

The Love List {4 Sept 2011}

Happy Sunday everyone! Hope you’ve had a great weekend. It’s officially the last weekend of summer here, I guess, and we had a couple of days of glorious sunshine (in case you haven’t noticed me moaning, we’ve had the coldest summer this year since before I moved to the UK – not happy!) so I was able to host a braai at my new house. What a pleasure having a garden again! I introduced my Irish housemate to the joys of the potato bake, and had a good chin wag with my laydees, and have spent the whole of today catching up on blog posts for the coming week, painting my office, etc. I can’t wait to move in there! Hope that, whatever you’ve been up to, you’ve had a really wonderful weekend!

Before we begin the new week, here are my favourites from around the week in the last seven days.

The Love List {29 Jul 2011}

Woohoo! Friday! I was supposed to be moving today, but now Steve, aka the Man with a Van, is coming on Sunday so I have all weekend to get my pack on and didn’t have to resort to throwing everything into black bags. But apart from the stress and the admin and the outlay of moving, you guys I can’t WAIT. Okay, I am leaving my beloved Putney. And okay, I am losing my London postcode (even if where I’m moving is TOTALLY inside London borders, I checked!). But I am gaining to lovely housemates with two little kittens, and the cutest little suite of rooms just for me including bedroom, dressing room (OMG, seriously), en suite bathroom and the one I’m most excited about (only a blogger really understands this I think!), my own office. I have big plans for that office, and lots of plans for this here blog which have been going on in the background this week and I can’t wait to share everything! But not yet. For now, you’ll have to content your good selves with my best of the web from this week.

The Love List {23 Jul 2011}

Happy weekend, lovelies! Hope you’re having a good one. It’s been a busy week, and next week even more so, as on Friday I’m moving into my new home. Can’t wait! Although all the hassle of cleaning and paying for things and OMG PACKING isn’t making me very thrilled right now. I’m hoping to keep on top of everything blogwise, but if I don’t manage it, please bear with me! In the meantime, here’s some loveliness from around the web to share – all these finds just made my toes curl with excitement!

The Love List {3 Jul 2011}

Good grief. This week and weekend has gone sooo quickly (as has this year – July? Seriously?) and although I’ve been wanting to post this all weekend, here I finally am at ridiculous o’ clock with The Love List. Eek. Anyway, I couldn’t let another week go by without sharing my favouritey favourites from around the web. But first, here’s a look at some of the goodness we have coming up on Cap Classique next week…

  • Another reader-requested inspiration board – loving this one!
  • THREE real weddings! Yep, I missed one last week, so you get all the loveliness now.
  • Everything you need to know about South Africa’s own royal wedding in Monaco (even if it did feel a bit less happy than the Will and Kate nuptials, boo)… and just guess where they’re having their South African reception? Hello, Oyster Box in Umhlanga!
  • A brand new engagement shoot, just for you!
Anyway, back to the week that was…
