Back home from the Sunshine State!

20/01/2014 by Karen

I haven’t posted in over a week as I’ve been abroad in Florida visiting my wonderful brother, sister-in-law and nephew. We took our daughter (now 10 weeks old) with us, and my parents came too. It was terrific to be altogether and to spend quality time as a family in the state of sunshine, oranges and alligators.

We arrived home a couple of hours ago and as lovely as it was to go on holiday, I must say, it is just as delightful to come home (I’m soppy like that).

Now I’m back I have to admit that I’m excited to get going on some really wonderful (and wildly different)  real Jewish weddings. I’ve got Smashing The Glass’s first South African Jewish wedding going online in the next couple of days which I am seriously excited about! It’s a gorgeous chic-meets-rustic affair photographed by the awesome Darren Bester.

Also coming soon, and another first for STG, is a white-themed Bali island Jewish wedding (squeal!) photographed by the incredible Studio Impressions.

And I’ve also got a fancy dress Jewish wedding set in an Arthouse cinema in West Sussex in the pipeline. Does it get better than that? Well yes – when said wedding is seaside-themed, takes place on New Years Eve, and is photographed by the utterly fabulous Martin Beddall,  it absolutely does!

Lastly there’s a fabulous big gay dance party Jewish wedding coming up in the next couple of weeks too. Sneak peaks of all four w-days are below but check back soon for all four glorious weddings in full technicolour. You guys are in for some serious Jewish wedspiration!
