Facebook Live Catch Up: Luxe Wedding Dress Trends for 2019/20 – Live from Mirror Mirror London

by

I’m so excited to share with you my latest Facebook Live from one of the world’s most gorgeous bridal boutiques, London’s Mirror Mirror (a much-loved Recommended Vendor), I was lucky enough to meet with co-founders Maria and Jane, sisters-in-law who started their business 30 years ago out of a shared passion for artisan bridal fashion, and we had wonderful Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Adrian Stone behind the camera.


These two inspirational ladies, who I got to know after noticing that so many of our STG Real Brides bought their gowns from Mirror Mirror, are both designers and stockists of some of the hottest international bridal designers, including Nurit Hen, Hayley Paige, YolanCris, Gemy Maalouf, and Atelier Pronovias. So who better to talk us through the top luxury wedding dress trends for 2019/20?

We had the amazing Reportage Gallery on hand to sneak some behind-the-scenes photos. They were a joy to work with, and I’m absolutely delighted to share the images they snapped with you!

Maria and Jane started off showing us some stunning dresses from their own Mirror Mirror Couture collection. We saw some totally gorgeous gowns and chatted about some of the top bridal trends for the coming year.

Back in January we filmed our first big Facebook Live of 2018, and boy, was it one for the records!

Live-broadcasting from one of the world’s most gorgeous bridal boutiques, London’s Mirror Mirror (a much-loved Recommended Vendor), I was lucky enough to meet with co-founders Maria and Jane, sisters-in-law who started their business 29 years ago out of a shared passion for artisan bridal fashion.

So who better to talk us through the top luxury wedding dress trends for 2018/19?

We had the amazing Roberta Facchini Photography on hand to sneak some behind-the-scenes photos. She was a joy to work with, and I’m absolutely delighted to share the images she snapped with you!

Facebook Live Catch Up: Ines Di Santo’s latest Collection + Wedding Dress Q&A – live from Browns Bride

by

WOW! What a Facebook Live we had last Thursday, live from central London’s most prestigious wedding dress store, Browns Bride.

I spent most of it open-mouthed, taking in the breathtaking bridal gowns from one of the most sought-after wedding dress designers in the world, the imitable Ines Di Santo… and I had to pinch myself that Ines herself was actually standing right there next to me! #starstruckmoment

Ines Di Santo 2018
Yes – that’s right, Ines Di Santo herself flew into London to be interviewed by Smashing The Glass and she could not have been more delightful. It was a true honor and pleasure to be in her company and to talk to her about her sensational work, inspiration and processes.

We were also treated to Caroline Burstein (above) former Creative Director of Mayfair’s Browns, and founder of the legendary Browns Bride, live on air with us. Caroline’s wealth of knowledge and insightful tips and advice were so appreciated by our live audience around the globe. Another huge thrill for Smashing The Glass to interview her live on air!

Facebook Live Catch Up: How To Plan Your Wedding on Instagram – live from Claridge’s, with Jemma-Jade Events

by

Last night I was one VERY happy blogger – champagne cocktail in hand, and live-streaming from London’s legendary Claridge’s, alongside a superstar guest, talking about one of the HOTTEST topics around — it really doesn’t get any better!

Coming to you live from the brand new Mezzanine events space on the first floor of the iconic Mayfair hotel where anyone who’s anyone stays (I’m talking Royals to Hollywood stars to A-list bloggers!!) ) was an absolute thrill and I was unashamedly excited to be live streaming from such an incredibly designed space.

The topic was something I am so passionate about – and something that has never really been fully dissected before — how to best plan your wedding using Instagram.

My guest for the evening was the international luxury wedding planner for the millenials (and she’s a bride-to-be too – Mazal Tov!) the effervescent Jemma-Jade William, founder of Jemma-Jade Events.Continue ReadingContinue Reading
