Mad Hatters Teaparty at Bake-a-Boo, London!

rosie — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 11:52:01 +0000

On Sunday I photographed Vicky’s Mad Hatter Fascinator Workshop at the gorgeous London teashop Bake-a-Boo, in Hampstead.

It was a riotous affair, with a troupe of hens plus bride, several brides to be and the lovely Miranda, Editor of Cosmo Bride all in attendance to make fine millinery creations.

Bake-a-Boo was the most fantastic location for the afternoon, I’ve never seen such a wonderful tearoom and definitely want to take my Mum back there for a lovely afternoon tea when next in London! They had gone to town with the Mad Hatter theme, and had fab biscuits in the shape of white rabbits, jam tarts and all manner of Alice in Wonderland type goodies! Vicky’s pal Alex had also used her talents to make some great ‘eat me’ and ‘drink me’ tags.

Sketch London – Recommended Wedding Photographer

Yesterday I was at my favourite London wedding venue, Sketch on Conduit Street. Filled with fantastic rooms with quirky and imaginative interiors, If I had an unlimited budget I would design my own home to look the same. Awesome cool lampshades with skulls on, huge industrial sculptures of light, paint flowing down the stairs and intriguing pieces of modern art all over the place – it’s a fabulous venue for any special occasion but even more amazing for wedding photos!

I’ve been a recommended wedding photographer at Sketch for a few months now, and the shoot took place around the building just before they opened for dinner. Most of the rooms don’t see much natural light, so my flashgun was put to good use! The images will be used by their PR and marketing department.

Clarabows Fascinator Workshop at Caffe Clifton, Bristol

My very talented and imaginative friend Vicky Rowe, who runs Vintage Teasets in Bristol has always been a dab hand at making her own hats and fascinators. She’s recently developed this side of her business into her new website www.clarabows.co.uk (created by my husband Lee!) and has started hosting the most fabulous fascinator workshops at gorgeous venues across the UK.

I joined her at Caffe Clifton in Bristol this Monday to shoot some images at one of her workshops for her new site, and what’s more I even got a chance to try my own hand at making a fascinator (a lovely little teal green number!). We also had an amazing slap up afternoon tea with gorgeous cakes supplied by Clifton Cake Cafe

I’ll be heading up to London with her for the next date which is a Mad Hatters Tea Party afternoon workshop on Sunday March 7th at uber cute Hampstead tearooms Bake-a-boo www.bake-a-boo.com/. We also plan to take in afternoon tea at the brilliant Sketch as a birthday treat (I’ll be 28 in two weeks time – eeek!).

For all the details of Vicky’s London workshop check out www.bake-a-boo.com/workshops – it would be great to see you there!

Thali Cafe Clifton

On Friday night I had the fun of photographing the launch of the newest addition to the Thali Cafe family – their gorgeous new cafe on Regents Street in Clifton Village.

The place is typically trademark Thali with bright pinks, soft greens, comfy leather sofas and quirky artifacts – perfect! I love the three levels of seating as well – my favourite level though had to be downstairs with the new curvy bollywood cocktail bar. I sampled one of their non-alcoholic varieties (not sure what it was!) and it was the best cocktail I’ve ever had in my life – tangy and fruity and sweet. Yummmy! 6hs94tk2x5
