Here at Vintage Partyware, we #LoveWestNorfolk! We recently signed our commitment to West Norfolk as part of the Love West Norfolk campaign, and became a reason to Love West Norfolk. Today (14th February 2019) is not only Valentine's Day, but also the second ever Love West Norfolk Day and people are being encouraged to shout loudly and proudly about West Norfolk.

There are so many things to keep in mind when you’re planning a wedding. The venue, the photographer, the DJ, the dress, the cake, the rings… it’s easy to lose track! Somewhere between the main elements of a wedding and all of those ideas you’ve pinned on Pinterest, it can be all too easy to overlook those little finishing touches that can make your big day even more memorable. This week, we’ve put together a list of wedding details not to overlook so that you can ensure you’ve got the wedding day (and photos) you’ve dreamed of!
