BABES IN THE WOODS - WILD WOODLAND HEN DO'S IN THE FOOTHILLS OF THE MALVERNS

If you're a plucky hen seeking out less cliched activities, alternative hen weekend woodland glamping experts, Babes in the Woods, are offering two new fabulous packages for 2016!

Run by the dynamic Hetti Dysch, Babes in the Woods operates a fantastic secret woodland camp where hens can spend the weekend indulging in good times, champagne, bushcraft and luxury camping in spacious Californian domed tents with comfy camp beds and a wood lounging area with wood burning stove.

Set peacefully within a broadleaf woodland on the 1200 acre Bromsberrow Estate near Ledbury, the Malvern site is within easy striking distance of London, Bristol, Birmingham and Cardiff.

With activities that include bushcraft skills, 'wild walks', early morning yoga and foraging, hens can use their 'wild' experience to make unique & seasonal wedding favours for their guests such as hedgerow jam, garlic pesto or hedgerow lip balm! You can enjoy chill out time in front of a roaring fire or even indulge in some proper girlie pampering.

Offering five different packages, with the Daffodil Day Package and Foxglove Festival new for 2016, there's something for all types, and it's a great girlie bonding experience, away from all those usual outside interruptions.

EVOKE PICTURES - BEAUTIFUL DOCUMENTARY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

With over 15 years experience as professional wedding photographers in Bristol and the surrounding area, Fran and Chris work in partnership as Evoke Pictures, offering a unique service on your wedding day. They limit their wedding bookings to 25 a year, meaning you get a totally bespoke and personalised service and, on the day, they work unobtrusively in the background, capturing everything naturally and recording the day as it unfolds. As you have two photographers, your wedding is captured through both their lenses so they never miss a moment of your day!

Your guests won't spend hours standing in groups as they aim to take the pictures as quickly as possible so you can get back to having fun, but they'll be there in the background capturing all those wonderful instants that you might miss.

Happy to travel far and wide, as well as documentary wedding photography, they offer a range of other services including family portraits, contemporary head-shots, lifestyle, corporate, interior and event and food photography. In fact they took the stunning photos from last year's Bristol Vintage Wedding Fair, which we adored!

CHOCOLATE DELORES - DIVINE WEDDING CAKE FOR THE CHOCOLATE CONNOISEUR

So here's the dilemma - you want a stunning wedding cake but you adore chocolate cake and you really don't want to compromise. Well, meet Chocolate Delores Cakes, one of our favourite cake makers and chocolatiers - et voila! your problem's solved!

The wonderful Lizzie Melling, the name behind the brand, has been baking since childhood so it was a natural progression to work for one of Britain's leading organic chocolate cake makers where she learnt the art of the Chocolatier and trained in couverture. After 12 years refining her art, Lizzie founded Chocolate Delores Cakes and has been loving every minute of it for the last 6 years!

Lizzie loves creating her fantastical, glamorous cakes but not only do Chocolate Delores Cakes look out of this world, they taste absolutely divine! The main ingredient is a deliciously dark chocolate and each cake is soaked overnight in Port before being layered with Madagascan vanilla buttercream and homemade plum jam. After that, using white, dark or milk chocolate, master chocolatier Lizzie gets to work designing.

Take a look at the Lizzie's gallery and just a selection of the cakes below - I guarantee you'll fall in love!

BRISTOL VINTAGE - MAKING THE WORLD MORE GLAMOROUS CUP BY CUP!

When Katie and I started Bristol Vintage, over 7 years ago, we didn't really know where it would take us - we just had a passion for beautiful vintage things and a love of glamour. So it's wonderful to now be in a position where we host such a fabulous event with some of the most glamorous exhibitors in the vintage world - and even lovelier to be a part of it ourselves!

This year we're styling the whole of the Pavilion Council room on the first floor to really show you how fabulous our crockery and props can make your wedding. From the tiniest hire of 2 cups & saucers up to a full dinner crockery and props for your wedding, we can help, so come and have a chat and see what we offer!

We're also incredibly excited to be working with Sarah Daly, who will be taking over the events part of the business as our Events Assistant, whilst I focus on the crockery and props, which I so adore. We've been working closely with Sarah on some of our weddings and events and she's very keen to expand the Event Planning side of the business with services from on-the-day co-ordination, to venue styling. Get in touch to discuss how we can help - Sarah will be your go-to girl. With a host of fabulous industry connections from our seven years' experience, Sarah can help you put together a really special day!

Bristol Vintage are very proud to announce our joint collaboration with Lighthaus Events on the hire of our vintage photo wall and chaise, adding an extra element of glamour and fun to your wedding or hen party event! The wall will be in action at the fair and manned by the lovely Emily Fisher of Fishee Events so come and have some fun!
