1. Discovering Iconic Landmarks

Exploring Rome’s famous landmarks feels like diving into a colourful history book. Each spot tells stories of empires, legends, and everlasting love. It feels like a journey through time.

So, if you want to blend adventure with romance, it’s perfect for you. Here are some must-visit historical gems you won’t want to miss:

Colosseum: You can begin your love adventure where warriors once fought bravely. This place will remind you of the enduring human spirit. As you walk together, you’ll feel the excitement and grand scenes from the past.

Roman Forum: Just a short walk from the Colosseum, this forum awaits you. Once the bustling heart of the Roman Republic, the ruins here speak volumes about the history. While walking through these old ruins, you can feel the weight of history beneath your feet.

Moreover, since these places are popular, you may encounter heavy crowds. But fret not. With a bit of foresight, you can ensure an enjoyable experience. Here, one smart move to follow is to pre-book your tickets and tours.

For example, if you’re going to the Colosseum first, you can pre-book your colosseum official tickets online. This approach lets you see and enjoy more without the stress of waiting. It means you can skip the long waiting lines and get prioritized and guaranteed entry.

Additionally, it may even allow you to explore some parts of the Colosseum that are not accessible to everyone. So, always plan ahead and make your visit as smooth and enjoyable as possible!

Des and Katie’s Bright, Tropical and Fun Outdoor Wedding in Gloucestershire by Babb Photos

I do love a bit of colour in a wedding! So when I was sent this tropical themed wedding from Babb Photos I knew I had to share it with you. Katie and Des were married on 5th August 2022 at Elmore Court in Gloucestershire, with 93 guests in the day and 109 in the evening. ‘We met 11 years ago in a dark and dingy corner of The Rainbow pub. When planning the wedding the thing I was looking forward to the most was getting to marry my best friend (finally!) and then partying with all of our friends and family in one place!’ Our theme was yellows, pinks and oranges for dresses, flowers and big balloons Green palms for table centre pieces and ceremony backdrop, with bright confetti’ The colours in this wedding are amazing, bright, yellow, pink and orange, the colours really do pop against the elegant backdrop of Elmore Court. I just love the giant balloons and the Prince references in the table names and seating plan. What a brilliant wedding.

Bright, tropical and fun!

Today’s wedding of Harry and Hollie is no exception. With a blush colour scheme and a day filled with so many personal details put together by Hollie it really is pure perfection. Big thanks to Chris Blackledge Photography  for the gorgeous photos.

I do today, I do forever and I do always. The vows we both wrote and promised each other for eternity. 

Harry and Hollie were married on 8th September 2023 at Preston Court, Canterbury, Kent. ‘We always knew we wanted a unique, memorable and fun wedding surrounded by our family and friends, so when we discovered Preston Court, it was the first and last venue we looked at. From the bohemian barnyard, unique carousel, vintage mechanical organs, steam engines, the magical moated island and its gorgeous surroundings, it was full of character and for us, love at first sight, so we booked it there and then! We had 118 day guests and 40 evening guests and it took 18 months to plan.’
