Rock My Wedding is one of the, well, rocking-est blogs out there. Rebecca manages to pair British cool with an easy accessibility that makes her blog a must-read for brides, no matter where they live. We couldn’t be more thrilled to have her stop by to get us all ready for the Royal Wedding!Well hello there, from across the pond! It’s Rebecca here from Rock My Wedding and I’m really excited to have been asked to write a couple of guest posts in anticipation of the wedding of the year, the Royal Wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William. As you can imagine, wedding fever is taking the UK by storm and we’re all super excited to see what the beautiful Kate will be wearing on the big day, whilst we cheer them both on.

When we were asked to write for you guys we immediately thought about what we could show you that was both Royally pretty and boldly British, and I didn’t have to think hard! No where has the anticipation of this Royal Engagement been greater than here in England and there was much excitement in the wedding world about how to celebrate and anticipate when the engagement was announced! We were contacted by Jo Kent from Something Blue PR about getting the exclusive on a shoot her clients were putting together to mark the occasion, and knowing just how fabulous they are, we were really excited to see what the team came up with.

We’re all feeling mightily patriotic right now so a red, white and blue Cool Britannia themed shoot was perfect to whet all our appetites for the day and show what the best of British can do. I hope you’ll agree the results are a little bit retro cool, a little bit quirky and completely fitting of a right Royal celebration, all against the historic and internationally recognizable backdrop of our capital London..

We’ll be back next week with plenty of tips on what trends are taking Real British Brides by storm at the moment for you all to have a nosey at. In the mean time, I hope you enjoy the shoot!

Yours Truly,
Rebecca and the RMW Team
