If you have children you will know that last week was half term, and this time instead of barricading myself behind the laptop we headed down to Devon with friends to live in a field for the week. We were really lucky with the weather and the kids had a great time playing out, chopping…
Here at Petal & Feast we have a pretty amazing gang. If you haven’t already – you can meet them here. They are all hand picked for their special powers… Amber has her extra long arms, great for reaching things and putting the canopy on the ice-cream bike! She is also very lovely, capable and…
Happy Birthday to our beautiful, intrepid 9 year old. Loving your plans of being a travelling artist / living in a van in 6 fields when you are not off exploring, and generally saving the world – if anyone can do it I think it might be you. xxx Acrylics work so much better than…
So, it’s time… time to sort our shed out. We actually have a ‘shed-load’, all right a diary block full, of stuff…. After a super busy summer it all needs sorting out, but we are also going to have to let go of some treasures to get some space! We will be selling some of…

This weekend we are looking forward to meeting lots of lovely new couples at Belles Events Quirky Boutique Wedding Fair. It’s going to be stuffed with interesting suppliers and we are there…
Lovely Lizzy Lever Arch is my right hand (wo)man. She is brilliant photographer and generally a really lovely girl. Liz started with me just over a year ago, the first thing we ever did was paint the backdrop for The Blogcademy photobooth. It took up the whole kitchen floor, and she tiptoed over it in…
image from Joanna Brown at our Peter Pan Shoot The New Year will be bringing a few more *NEW* things to Petal & Feast’s (alfresco) table (with festoon lights strung up above it, under a tree, somewhere Mediterranean), and this is one of them. Come along and learn how to put together your very own, hand-tied wedding…
Last weekend, before our Christmas Wreath making course, lovely Jayne came along with me and the boys, foraging for ingredients, (the girls opted for warmth and friends instead and played at Kirstin’s). We are really lucky to have The Downs on our doorstep, and although I feel like a proper mother saying it, whenever you…
