Although your wedding day will likely pass you by in a flash, the actual day itself can also be a quite a long day for your and your guests. It’s often important to include some activities/games to keep your guests entertained during the quieter moments of the day between the main events, or times when it might be useful for some younger guests to be especially quiet.
You as the couple might also be away from your guests doing ‘just married‘ people things (e.g. your couples’ photos!), this is usually during the drinks reception and a perfect opportunity to set up some games for your guests to enjoy during that period. Whether that’s a selection of low stakes board games inside, or giant Jenga, mini golf or even limbo, outside, there’s a whole host of ideas to suit all budgets and interests in our “Ideas for your Wedding Games and Activities | Indoor & Outdoor” video.

The Ultimate Guide to Creating a Celebration Full of Sunshine and Fun
***
There’s something magical about a summer wedding…and it’s surely the most popular wedding season for a reason. Maybe it’s the long, balmy evenings, the abundance of beautiful blooms or the relaxed, carefree atmosphere that comes with the season. Whatever it is, a summer wedding isn’t just a wedding that happens to take place in summer – it can become the entire identity of your wedding day.
If you’re planning a summertime wedding, we’ve rounded up plenty of summer wedding ideas and inspiration to help you make the most of your wedding season. From florals and décor to food, activities and thoughtful touches for your guests, we think these ideas are guaranteed to get you excited for your big day.
🎥 Watch our Summer Wedding Ideas & Inspiration video here:
Summer Wedding Florals & Aesthetics
Summer is bursting with colour, making it the perfect season to embrace vibrant florals and bold styling.
Think:
Wildflower-meadow inspired bouquets
Dahlias and cosmos
Citrus accents and fresh greenery
Colour palettes inspired by sunsets, sorbets and the seaside
Floral installation tablescapes and alfresco dining
Summer weddings lend themselves beautifully to vibrant, joyful styling, whether you’re planning a garden celebration, a marquee reception or an outdoor shindig on the grounds of a traditional wedding venue.
Summer Wedding Activities & Entertainment Ideas
One of the best things about a summer wedding is that the warmer weather opens up so many possibilities for guest entertainment.
Some of our favourite summer wedding activities include:
Garden games such as giant Jenga, oversized Guess Who (with your guests’ faces!) croquet and cornhole
Live acoustic music with an outdoor dance floor
Team games such as tug-of-war
Adult-sized bouncy castles
Adding activities throughout the day gives guests plenty to enjoy during those natural lulls, such as during photographs, awaiting your arrival at the reception, or as alternative options for those who don’t enjoy the dance floor quite as much as some.
Seasonal Food & Drinks
Summer is the perfect excuse to have fun with your menu.
Consider:
Sharing platters and barbecue-style dining
Fruit-inspired desserts
Hydration stations
Ice cream cart with signature flavours or ice lollies
Signature summer cocktails
Pimm’s stations
Pretty edible flower ice cubes or flavoured ice cubes for drinks
Wedding cake with citrus fruit decoration and vibrant colours.
…but seriously…the ice cream station!
Summer Wedding Attire
Summer weddings are also a wonderful opportunity to embrace lighter, more colourful fashion.
Brides might choose:
Lightweight fabrics
Floral appliqué details
Converse / flats for comfort on grass
Shorter dresses for evening celebrations
Customised denim jackets as a fun evening cover-up
For grooms (and groomsmen), think:
Lighter colour suits – soft pinks, creams or greens
Linen suits
Vibrant ties / pocket squares / buttonholes, mirroring the colour palette used for the bridesmaids.
Bridesmaids:
Bright colours – inspired by sunsets, sorbets – showcasing a palette of colours for interest and cohesion, rather than a uniform look.
Parasols for photo props / floral alternatives
The key is choosing outfits that keep you cool whilst embracing the life and energy of the season.
Thoughtful Favours & Extra Touches
The little details are often what guests remember most.
Some lovely summer-inspired wedding favours / extra touches include:
Handheld fans
Personalised sunglasses
Parasols
Sunscreen and insect repellant
Stiletto heel protectors
All ideas that can be used on the day itself, so definitely not a waste of those hard saved pennies. These thoughtful touches help your guests feel looked after, particularly if you’re celebrating on a warm summer’s day.
Create a Summer Wedding That Feels Like You
The beauty of a summer wedding is that there are so many ways to make it your own. Embrace the ideas you love, whether you choose to lean into the vibrant colour palette or simply select a couple of the outdoor game ideas, or maybe set up the ice cream station (yes, our personal favourite!)…you don’t have to go all-in on summer if you don’t want to, so long as your wedding says, “you”, that’s the key! The season offers endless inspiration that can be personalised & customised to you and your fiancé(e) (I mean, did you see the ice cream wafers?!).

If you want to capture the vibes of a carefree, fun and rustic summer at your wedding, we’ve got the fun tutorial for you! Create your very own Summer Camp inspired pennant flags, perfect to add to your reception tables, simply as decor, or even as your table names. Or display them around your “Camp” with different phrases on, from the name of your “Summer Camp” to your new married name.
No sewing or cutting machines required! (Although, of course if you have a Cricut machine – or similar, you can also use that to cut out your letters and shapes)
You will need:
Paper for templates
Felt – we used felt sheets that were approx. A4 in size
Scissors
Ruler & pencil
Fabric glue or double sided tape
A dowel – if you want to add a handle to your flag
Access to a printer if you want to print out the letters for your template
You can easily freehand the letters you want to add to your flag, however we used an app within Canva.com to create our letter templates (available on the free version) – this enabled us to easily create the shape and size we wanted for each letter for the flag.
We’d love to see what creations you come up with if you give this DIY a go. Tag us in your photos over on Instagram.

How to Elevate your Cricut Crafts with Canva (without using Cricut Access)
***
You’ve discovered the beautiful world of Canva, with its vast choice of fonts, endless graphics, and easy-to-use tools, you can create designs to be proud of for your wedding. You’ve designed your couples’ monogram and now you want it on everything…there’s going to be tote bags, signage, cupcake toppers…so you bought a Cricut, fab! But how exactly do you get your fancy design out of Canva and into Cricut Design Space, especially if you’ve not splashed out on the Cricut Access subscription?
Sometimes, things seem like they’re going to be straight forward, and then, well, the roadblocks start on coming. We’ve been there! But having been around the block a few times, we’ve picked up a few tips and tricks to navigate around them and we’re here to share the wisdom!
Our Canva to Cricut Tutorial
We’ve made lots of Cricut tutorials for our YouTube channel over the years, but we’ve never taken the time to get break down exactly how we use Canva to enhance our projects (because there’s never enough time to get into everything!). We asked if you were keen to know more, and turns out you are! So here we are with some of our frequently used workarounds for perhaps the most common Canva to Cricut issues.
Whether you’re making wedding decorations, personalised gifts, vinyl decals, cards, signs or party stationery, these techniques can help you get more out of both platforms.
Also, if you want a hand with designing in Canva itself, we’ve got another tutorial already up on our channel, walking you through a monogram design, here.
In the video, we cover:
1. Uploading Canva Designs into Cricut Design Space
If you’re working with a single-colour design or a project using just one material, we’ll show you the easiest way to export your design from Canva and upload it into Cricut Design Space successfully. Always good to start with the basics!
2. Creating Layers for Multi-Colour Cricut Projects
This is where things can get a little more interesting. If your Canva design includes multiple colours, materials or both you’ll usually need to separate those components into layers before cutting…but without the use of Cricut Access, this one takes a little more time.
In the tutorial, we share two different methods for creating layered designs, depending on the complexity of your project and you can find all the time stamps to jump around in the tutorial in the video description box over on YouTube.
3. Working Around Cricut’s Size Limit
Few crafting frustrations compare to creating a beautiful design and then realising it’s larger than Cricut can cut. Thankfully, there are ways around this.
We walk through a couple of our techniques for tackling oversized Canva-to-Cricut projects, helping you create larger designs without completely redesigning everything from scratch. Because nobody wants to spend an entire evening redesigning something they loved.
These techniques are particularly useful for:
Wedding welcome signs
Wedding seating charts
Photo booth props
Customising photo/ceremony backdrops
Combining Canva’s design tools with Cricut’s cutting capabilities opens up so many creative possibilities. There’ll be no holding you back after this week’s tutorial!

Our latest DIY project has the added benefit that a really useful (some might say essential) piece of equipment is a Toblerone box! And while the contents of the box isn’t required, enjoying the chocolate is a definite reward for your hard work making wedding DIY projects.
If you’re looking for unique place setting ideas, combine function and florals with our air dry clay, dried flower, place cards.
Easy to make using air dry clay (we chose the terracotta colour), simply add a hole in the top of the place card to hold your own posy of dried/faux flowers. Don’t forget to add the name of each guest and you’ve got unique place cards for your wedding or event!
Leave to dry following the instructions on the clay packet (it usually takes around 24/48 hours to fully harden)
These place cards can be made well in advance so one less, last minute DIY to worry about on the run up to the wedding!

Make a welcome sign for your spring/summer wedding with us! ***
The Inspiration
I’d been staring at the rolls of decorative faux grass in craft shops for years thinking, “there must be something creative I can make out of that for a wedding”. Then sitting in my home office one day, it came to me. Out of the corner of my eye, peeking out from behind the door were the sheets of A1 foam board, left over from a DIY tutorial from years ago (I’d been lured by a ‘4 sheets for massive discount’ type offer at Hobbycraft (on a side note, I see they are still running that offer – I’ll add the link to the product list below!) thinking I’m sure I’ll find a use for them one day).
Well, today was the day I’d find a use for one more of those sheets! I could visualise the beginnings of some wedding signage and the grass immediately gave me the feel of a spring into summer-time wedding. And so developed the theme of growth/nature for the remainder of the sign.
The OG monogram design
The Design
I’d previously created a wedding monogram/logo on Canva, again for a previous tutorial on our YouTube channel and knew that could easily be adapted for a welcome sign… Which I’m now giving past-me a pat on the back for, but seriously, if you’ve gone to the effort of designing yourself a couple’s monogram, you definitely want to be including it throughout the wedding – it doesn’t need to start and end with your wedding invitations!
I knew I needed to make it pop over anything else I put on the board, as I didn’t want it getting lost or confusion over where the eye should be drawn. So, whilst I cut my entire design out of white kraft board for ease, I decided to elevate the initials from the board using foam board offcuts and double-sided tape! Then, I double layered it for the initial of the married surname seeing as it’s a wedding sign, where in this case the couple are going to be sharing the same last name through the process of exactly what the sign is there to welcome you to, it felt quietly fitting to put extra emphasis on that letter.
With that thought stuck in my head, I adapted my original monogram design further to make that letter a different colour (also a great opportunity to incorporate your wedding colour theme if you have one! See…always thinking!). I spray painted mine gold, but of course you could just cut it out of coloured card – I’ll let you watch the video to find out more on this topic, it wasn’t my smartest moment…
Trying New Ideas
And then it was what to do with the rest of the board. You could of course just make your monogram more central on the board than I have and leave it at that, or add more text for details of the day. However, a little further flash of inspiration found me – the idea of nature and growth that had stemmed from using the faux grass brought me to the idea of having florals/foliage growing up from the bottom of the sign. And of course, because I already had some foliage incorporated into the monogram itself, it felt like a natural extension of that to pull into the remainder of the design. I considered attaching faux flowers for a moment, but decided they would pull emphasis away from the logo, and well, I was on a budget! So, I kept it simple; white card for all the flowers and foliage. That said, this all depends on whether it’s time or budget that is your number 1 issue. I have a Cricut, so I could relatively quickly cut my design out – if you’re using a printer and a craft knife, you’re obviously into a longer process.
The Unity of Canva and Cricut
You don’t need to have a Cricut to make this project with me, but if you do, this is one of those times where using Canva and Cricut together is a satisfying and harmonious relationship. Canva gives you that superior creative freedom you need when designing, with access to so many images and tools. And then of course, Cricut makes cutting an absolute breeze (so long as you’ve picked up a little learned knowledge through trial and error along the way — or through some of my previous tutorials!).
If you’re sat there thinking, “but that design is bigger than the 12×12 size that Cricut cuts”, fear not, the YouTube video touches on my workaround for this…it just means a few extra steps.
N.B. We’re not affiliates of Canva or Cricut at this moment in time, it’s just a love thing.
The Finished Product
A bit of double-sided tape and a dab or many of super glue later, you’re all done! A welcome sign that’s maybe a bit different from what we’ve all seen before, gives you a real feel for the season of the wedding, as well as giving ample opportunities to incorporate those threads running throughout your wedding, such as your couple’s monogram and colour scheme. And best of all, SO budget friendly!

We’re calling this a wedding hack, but in reality it’s probably a bit too simple and easy to be called a hack! It is however, definitely a budget friendly idea for your wedding centrepieces (excluding what you choose to add as your floral arrangements!) There’s even added whimsy with these centrepieces as you get to use ‘frogs’ – although sadly not quite as exciting as they sound – very useful though!
Take two 75p* white bowls from Ikea, attach them together, and voila! You’ve got your very own vessel to add your floral arrangements to. We’ve used fresh flowers for our example, but dried or faux would work just as well with this idea, with the bonus that if you’re DIYing it yourself for your wedding day, they can be made well in advance. Just don’t submerge the floral foam in water like we did if you’re not using fresh flowers!

I always aim to go above & beyond for my guests, no matter the occasion – birthday / anniversary / engagement party, hen do, baby shower, Christmas gatherings, weddings… If I’m hosting, I’m going all-in, no half measures…and that doesn’t mean big budget if you’re willing to get hands-on and prep! It’s about making a special occasion ‘feel’ special.
The way I see it, entertaining / hosting is all about how I can make my guests feel. Excited, treasured, loved, valued, seen, celebrated…and one of the key ways I do that is through the extra touches. The things that aren’t necessarily essential, like drink savers or takeaway cake boxes, but are thoughtful and appreciated.
The goal here isn’t to stress yourself out, bankrupt yourself or spend the whole event worrying about how it’s going. The bonus of ‘extra touches’ from a stress point-of-view, is that usually they can be prepped well in advance whenever you find a moment here or there. And just do what you can, sometimes you need to let an idea go, that’s ok! Mentally store it for another time, after all, you don’t want to show your whole hand on the first go around! Plus, DIYs can often be a budget friendly way to go, especially on custom items.
We’ve got so many tutorials on our channel that you’ll be brimming with ideas and inspiration for your next event. And today we’re here with one more! Our latest Cricut tutorial – Drink Savers! Not only will they save your guests from wondering which drink was theirs in a sea of glassware, but they’ll feel touched that you took the time & effort for them.
This tutorial is for beginners and works with all Cricut machines. A great place to start as a first project or if you’re still getting to grips with your machine (I remember the learning curve – I’ve got you!). The full details of what you’ll need are listed below…

Is this Los Cabos, Mexico Luxury Hotel, Honeymoon Worthy?
If you’re anything like us, the words “luxury boutique hotel” are enough to make you start checking flight availability immediately. And when that hotel sits on the sun-drenched coastline of Los Cabos, Mexico, it becomes almost impossible to resist.
As Brits, winter sun is practically a necessity, so when we spotted The Cape, A Thompson Hotel sitting pretty with an impressive 9.6/10 rating on Expedia, we knew we needed some of that in our lives!
But the real question we wanted to answer wasn’t just whether it was beautiful, but is it honeymoon / destination-wedding worthy? 💍
Having travelled to some incredible destinations around the world – and reviewed several of the top-rated Mexican resorts along the way – we’ve definitely developed a taste for luxury and there’s just no going back after that! So in this review, we’re seeing if The Cape lives up to it’s self-proclaimed ‘luxury’ status – from the rooms and the food, to the beach, the pool and everything in between to help you decide if it deserves a place on your celebratory travel list. Luxury is a definite must for a destination wedding / honeymoon!
There is no doubt that this hotel is beautifully situated with its uncompromised views of the dramatic Baja Peninsula coastline with sweeping views across the Pacific and humpback whales just casually putting on a show for you throughout the day (time of year dependant), PLUS one very special sight: the iconic El Arco de Cabo San Lucas rock formation.
And the beauty is not just outside the window, the hotel itself is truly stunning. Minus a few niggles (which I’ll get into in the video so you can decide for yourself whether they’re deal breakers), it’s hard to argue that this hotel is anything other than a slice of paradise. But would I rate it 9.6/10? Find out here….

Turning your “just dinner” into a moment this Valentine’s Day! 🌹...And it’s easier than you think!
I love a napkin fold. Never once has it failed to get noticed at an event I’ve hosted – often guests don’t even want to unfold the napkin to use it, they want to take it home with them! Which, ok, defeats the life’s purpose of the napkin…but the napkin will get over it.
An origami napkin shows effort, that you took time and thought for your guests beyond the expected. They came for the food and the company, but it’s the unexpected elements that are the memorable, the talking points, the ones that make people feel special.
Clearly, Valentine’s Day is an obvious one for going that extra mile for your special dinner guest (or your Palentines), and a classic rose is the perfect addition to your tablescape. Our napkin roses can be made with either a paper or cloth napkin – we’re using a 33cm² paper napkin. It doesn’t even matter if the ones you have aren’t the same colour on both sides (ours are pink and white!), we’ll show you how to make sure the main colour you want ends up being the dominant one at the end.

This YouTube tutorial is in real-time, with step-by-step audio instructions (if you’re looking for a quicker version, just for a recap, we also have a Short available on our channel):
Napkin Roses are Perfect For:
Valentine’s Day dinners
Anniversary celebrations
Wedding or engagement party tables
Romantic restaurant-style setups
No glue. No tools. No complicated origami energy. Just simple folds and instant table romance.
Styling Tips for Your Napkin Roses
Once you’ve mastered the fold, here are a few easy ways to style your napkin roses for extra impact:
🌿 Place the rose on top of the plate for a clean, elegant look
🍽️ Tuck the rose inside a glass for a restaurant-style vibe
💌 Add a handwritten note or name card under each rose
🕯️ Pair with candles and soft lighting for full romance mode
🌹 Mix napkin colours (red, blush, white) for visual interest
Small details = big mood.

With Valentine’s Day around the corner, we’ve turned our attention to, what might be, one of the cutest gift ideas. And bonus points that it won’t cost too much either. If you and your partner are a fan of a photo booth, you might have a selection of photo strips around the house, put away in drawers or boxes.
But what better way to display your photo booth photos than with this cute DIY gift idea.
Personalise your hoop with a meaningful message, your names, a special date, or even embroider some of your favourite things to add extra decoration to the fabric.
Not forgetting the main theme of our blog and Youtube channel, weddings, we also think they’d be a great addition to your reception tables. If you have multiple photo strips, why not turn them into table numbers?! An easy way to add a personal touch to your table decor.

🇨🇦 Vancouver, Canada might just be the most romantic city we’re not talking about enough…and it has honeymoon written all over it.
***
There are cities that impress you, and then there are cities that quietly win you over. Vancouver does the former, and then just keeps on giving! It doesn’t shout about itself. It simply turns up with mountains, water, brilliant food and that relaxed, outdoorsy West Coast confidence… and suddenly you’re wondering why you don’t live there (very seriously a question we ask ourselves every time we head back to the airport!).
We’ve uploaded a new travel YouTube vlog, taking you along on one of our favourite trips to Vancouver as a couple – sharing the spots we genuinely love, the touristy bits we think are worth their moment, and the slower, more romantic activities that make this city so unforgettable.
Why Vancouver is the perfect Destination for Couples
For context: I’m British, my husband is Canadian, and we live in the UK. Vancouver has become a home away from home for us, a place we return to often and somehow never get bored of.
What makes it so ideal for couples (and honeymooners!) is the balance. Vancouver gives you everythingyou’d want from a major city – great shopping, a vast array of restaurants, skyline views, buzz, all while also surrounding you with mountains, woodlands and calm, tranquil water. One minute you’re strolling city streets picking outfits for your next romantic dinner, the next you’re walking hand-in-hand on a peaceful trail soaking in some precious time together. No matter what your ‘thing’ is, Vancouver has it.
What We Cover in the Video
This is Vancouver as we experience it, no big plans, no stressful itineraries. A taste of what Vancouver has to offer honeymooners to help you decide if this is the destination for you. It’s a gentle hint as to how you might like to spend your time as a couple to have you feeling relaxed and like you’ve had a taste of what Canada is about.
You can expect:
🌳 Scenic walks and trail routes perfect for couples (the sort where no specialist equipment is necessary)
☕️ Cosy food stops and places to pause (important)
👀 The touristy highlights that are actually worth seeing
🇨🇦 Tips on what not to miss if you want a true Canadian experience
It’s the kind of trip where you walk a lot, eat well, stop constantly for views, and feel like you’re doing something good for your soul.
Is This Trip Right for You?
This video (and Vancouver in general) is perfect if you’re:
💍 Planning a honeymoon to Vancouver, BC
💑 Visiting Canada as a couple for the first time
🌲 Looking for romantic things to do, like scenic trail walks
✈️ Dreaming of a trip that has a bit of everything (because why should you have to decide on just one thing?!)
Whether you’re newly married, planning an anniversary trip, or simply want a destination that feels special without being overwhelming, Vancouver delivers.
It’s the 2nd January, which means that if you’re getting married in 2026, you can now say “We’re getting married this year!“.
