After several months of planning and preparation, your wedding is the day you want everything to be just right. A professional toastmaster provides the expertise, management skills, and tact to ensure success.

Your toastmaster will consult with you on every aspect of your big day, advising on procedure, timing and protocol. They’ll liaise with the banqueting manager, the photographer/videographer, and other suppliers throughout the day. They’ll also take your agreed plan and make it happen, ensuring everything runs smoothly and to time, with announcements made using the appropriate etiquette.

A well-dressed, red-coated toastmaster leading the wedding party adds colour, style and structure to your wedding. They’ll look the part and give the guests a natural focus for any queries. They’re also ready with a helping hand for elderly and less able guests.
 
What’s more, hiring a safe pair of hands relieves you of the stress of managing the day, so you’re free to relax and enjoy the occasion alongside your family and friends.

Women want a personal engagement ring not an expensive one

New research suggests a shift in how women approach one of the most traditional luxury jewellery purchases, with 75% saying they want an engagement ring to prioritise personal meaning over size or value.

What seems to stand out is not a complete rejection of convention, but rather a rebalancing and reassessment of value. 59% of women say their preference still leans towards traditional ready-made ring designs, and only 11% want an entirely custom-made piece But the emotional drive behind preferences and purchasing decisions does appear to be changing with 30% expressing a desire for rings that carry additional meaning through small modifications, engravings or design adjustments.

To understand why, the bed experts also asked survey respondents what their reasoning was behind this. They also provided additional insight on the idea of the "wedding night" from Relationship Expert, Jenni Trent Hughes. The findings show that exhaustion was by far the most common factor, with more than two in five (44%) of couples saying they were simply too tired after the celebrations.
