5. How will you decorate the room? Think about putting banner outside so that your guests can find you easily. Order banners that match your invitations.

6. Inside, go for banners with messages and birthday wishes for the guest of honour. If you have chosen a theme for the party, then go for decorations in keeping with your theme in order to impress your guests and create a convivial atmosphere.

7. Think about your room layout and how you will organise the space. Make sure you leave enough space for dancing, and that there are enough tables and chairs for everyone. Leave enough space between tables for people to move comfortably around the room.

8. You could offer a gift to all your guests: t-shirts, key rings, cotton bags… as a souvenir of your moment shared!

Of course, a good party needs lots of organisation, time and a bit of money! But it’s worth it if you can offer a moment of happiness to someone you love. So, here are a few tips for the organisation:

1. Choose the place. It can be really nice to have a party at home, but you need to think about the number of guests and the space you have available to accommodate them. If you don’t have the space, you’ll need to find a room to hire (village hall, restaurant, bar…).

2. Once you have chosen the place, you need to send the invitations! You’ll need to send them early enough for all your friends to get themselves organised. Leave an RSVP space on the invitations and add a map and contact details of hotels in the area. If you are organising a themed or surprise party, then don’t forget to warn your guests on the invites!

3. It’s common to send thank you cards at some point during the two weeks following a party. Choose a design that matches your invitations and order them at the same time.

More and more people take digital photos to record their happy moments, but what do you do with them once you return home?

You could transfer them from your camera to your computer, but then printing them all out to put a photo album together can seem like a rather laborious task.

That is why you should create a photo book as a souvenir of your holidays! It is so much easier to share your photos with family and friends when they are presented in a beautiful photo book.

With a choice of models, covers and layouts available, you will find the most practical format for you, and the best way to display your favourite photos.

Choose your best pics, upload them and then you can add your own captions. You could simply write the date and place, give more information, or even tell the story of the image or the memory associated with it.

So, use your best photos and create a beautiful book that you will enjoy looking at for years to come!

From spa weekends, weekend breaks abroad, nights out on the town or at home, the choice is there. You also, however, need to find some small gifts for the bride or groom-to-be…

Here are few fun ideas to help your friend prepare for their future wedded bliss:

• Bumper stickers or car door magnets – add a photo of the happy couple and a personal message, or simply announce the fact they are getting wed…

• Thank you cards – they’ll definitely come in handy after the big day, when they’ll have to thank everyone who came to the ceremony or the party…

• Headed paper – with the couple’s name, of course, or maybe you could design them a monogram…

• Engraved pens – choose one of our sophisticated models and add the names of the couple, and the date they will tie the knot…

• They may not be royalty, but they still deserve ‘his and hers’ mugs! Customise them with photos à la Kate and William, and add a message from their friends…

• Luggage tags – to make their life easier when they head off on their honeymoon!

Don’t forget, after the party, create some key rings and /or t-shirts as a souvenir for all those who came!
