Plan your wedding theme while in lockdown: Image 1

With plenty of time on our hands, couples planning their weddings during lockdown can really go to town on their big-day theme. Be inspired by Lovely Wanders, one of the only shops in the UK to sell Chinese wedding essentials, as well as Western wedding decorations that feature a rustic farmhouse vibe.

From hanging decorations, to the tablescape theme, they offer a large range of modern and unique Chinese wedding decorations and accessories for brides and grooms who are looking to incorporate traditional Chinese wedding elements into their big day. From the wedding tea ceremony utilising a red tea set to kneeling cushions, to 'Double Happiness' wall decals, to red and gold bridal hair combs. You can also expect to find handmade burlap buntings, wedding ring boxes made from wood, chalkboard place cards to kraft paper gift tags and more for reflecting the Western wedding themes popular this year! 
   Not only is it the venue that can be themed, but your bridal look can too as the company also offers bridal accessories from silver and gold hair combs to wedding dress sashes are classic in style, utilising plenty of lace, pearls and rhinestones.

Best friends Lucy and Cammy, who created Lovely Wanders together, both had a traditional Chinese wedding as well as a Western reception but found it difficult to source nice, yet affordable decorations and accessories for their weddings. They said: "We had to go as far as Hong Kong in search for all the Chinese Wedding essentials, and we also hand crafted a lot of things for our Western wedding ceremonies to keep things affordable. That's when we decided no bride-to-be needed that extra hassle."

Experts Warn Against Using AI for Wedding Vows

Experts Warn Against Using AI for Wedding Vows

With peak wedding season approaching, experts are warning couples not to rely on AI to write one of the most personal parts of their big day – their vows. A survey by jewellers Queensmith has revealed that more than half (55%) of UK brides and grooms are now using AI tools to help write their wedding vows and speeches, raising questions about authenticity, originality and even potential legal grey areas. The findings come amid a growing debate around AI-written vows after a registrar in the eastern Netherlands saw a marriage called into question when AI was used to help write the ceremony script. In the case, the District Court of Overijssel ruled that "no marriage has been established" after it emerged the registrar had relied on ChatGPT to draft parts of the ceremony. The case has sparked wider concerns that AI-generated wording could unintentionally mirror existing vows or scripts found online, raising questions about originality and authenticity.

Expert says prenups aren't just for the rich and famous

Legal experts at Richard Nelson LLP are urging Brits to rethink who prenups are really for. While often seen as something reserved for high-profile couples, data suggests they remain largely overlooked in everyday relationships. Just 7 percent of divorced Brits had a prenuptial agreement in place before separating, highlighting a significant gap between perception and reality. Regionally, attitudes vary. Manchester has emerged as the UK's 'prenup capital', with 13 percent of divorced couples having one in place, compared to 8 percent in London and 11 percent in Birmingham. Meanwhile, cities including Liverpool and Southampton reported no uptake among those surveyed.
