Often Misunderstood: Red

The colour red often has negative imagery and meaning attached to it, but we say NO! 

Red is a wonderfully vibrant colour, exciting, dangerous, passionate and an ideal symbol of love.  February 14th is literally festooned in the colour, hearts, roses, underwear! 

It seems the Chinese have got this colour right, in our opinion.  In China red symbolises fire, courage, loyalty, honour, success, fortune, fertility, happiness, passion and the wonders of summer.  Red is also the traditional colour of weddings, and gifts are often wrapped in red paper.

So listen to this wise and ancient culture, and brighten up your occasion with our red favour boxes a selection of which are shown below...

Congratulations to William and Kate!

Few days late in offering our congratulations to Prince William and Kate Middleton, but we've had a busy week!  Both Louise and I are delighted by the news, and don't hide our royalist tendencies...  think its just the tonic the country needs in the downbeat times we are going through.  Let's hope the day is special, and their marriage long and fruitful.

In the years following the marriage of Charles and Diana, there was a resurgence in the wedding business.  Whilst we may well have a vested interest in any such boom over the next few years, lets also hope it reaffirms this nation's belief in the institute of marriage.
