When you are planning your sepcial day picking the right supplier is always daunting as you want the best. So I thought I would display some suppliers details that may be of help to you when booking your wedding.

	Perditas Wedding Shoes Perdita’s Wedding Shoes was founded in 2001 by Karen Perdita Berrington who wanted to bring brides a range of great products at excellent prices. Being a small company they offer a friendly service, they don't want to be huge and impersonal, and not be in touch with the people that matter, their customers. Instead they strive to offer excellent service backed by brilliant prices and products they feel are of excellent quality. Their aim is to offer all their customers an excellent before and after sales service, with real women at the end of the phone to help and advise their customers to find the perfect pair of wedding shoes for their big day. Karen wanted to bring something different to the market and over the last few years has managed to achieve this with her in house dyeing and design studio. Any shoe can be dyed to any colour and can have their crystal magic applied and once you see what can be achieved to a plain pair of shoes the difference is quite amazing! Karen says that knowing what a bride wants from her own experience helps to provide her customers with the personal service they should expect from a wedding company. She has been very lucky to have found some like minded women who love shoes as much as she does and together they will make your visit at Perdita’s a happy experience. Your wedding day is your special day so why not pay Karen and her team a visit at Perdita’s Wedding Shoes to find that must have pair of shoes for you, your bridesmaids and even the mother of the bride!

	Joy Bailey Video Joy and Cary Bailey are two of the nicest people I have worked with on a wedding. They are fun whilst remaining professional and produce great results. Their company is based on the same beliefs as mine and that is that the needs of the customer are of the utmost importance. Their entire team is committed to meeting those needs and as a result a high percentage of their business is from referrals. Joy and the team are based in Stoke-on-Trent but do travel so don't worry if you are further a-field!
	Wayne Shelton - Professional Toastmaster and Master of Ceremonies Some venues may say that they have a Master of Ceremonies included in the price of your wedding package, however, with all due respect to the venue this is usually the hotels duty manager who is looking after your reception. There is nothing like the grandeur of having a 'proper' Master of Ceremonies/Toastmaster to ensure your day runs smoothly and Wayne will certainly do that ... and he is a really nice guy! After leaving the Royal Air Force after 26 years and then working for the UN, Wayne attended the prestigious United Kingdom School of Professional Toastmasters in 2007 to gain his qualifications as a Professional Toastmaster and has stood in many and varied functions since his graduation ... and boy does he look the part too! Take a look at his website by clicking on his name in the title above or give him a call on 01889 271655 or 07905 662246.
	Slaters Country Inn I have photographed many weddings at Slaters and it is one of my favourite venues. The wedding co-ordinator (Julie) is a lovely lady and very knowledgeable and helpful and will be there to help you with any queries you have. Slaters is nestled in the heart of the Staffordshire countryside and yet only 10 minutes drive from the Potteries and major motorway connections so it is an ideal location and complete wedding venue. The Briar Suite is tastefully converted from 18th century farm buildings, and exudes "olde worlde" charm with beamed ceilings and an open fireplace. French doors lead to the private gardens where, weather permitting your guests can enjoy drinks under the gazebos. The food and the service are great too!
	Flying The Knot - Angel & Spirit, the beautiful Barn Owl ring bearers. Whether you’re marrying or renewing your vows, having a civil ceremony, civil partnership or church wedding, imagine your big day with a touch of something a bit different, something a little special and magical. Then why not have a beautiful white ring bearing barn owl to elegantly and gracefully fly your wedding rings along the aisle to the bride, groom, best man, flower girl, page boy, or whoever you would like to receive your precious rings!
	The Melody Corporation - Suppliers of Quality Marquees Based in Cheshire, Melody are a small family run business whose motto is "large enough to cope, yet small enough to care". They can supply the complete package for all occassions, including tables, chairs, lounge furniture, lighting, power distribution, dance floors, bars, generators, toilets, caterers, outdoor lighting, plus much more.

	Vitaliano's Delicious Ice Cream An ice cream man with an ice cream bike! Vitaliano is a really happy, lovely person who has the most delicious ice cream (I can definately recommend the Caramela and the Mint Choc Chip flavours). Even if you are having a wedding with few or no children then this is ideal as everyone loves an ice cream no matter what their age ... don't they?
	Susie-Emma - Handmade, Personalised Bunting etc Susie is a very talented lady who makes handmade, personalised fabric bunting and fabric gifts.

	The Three Horseshoes (Nr Leek) The Three Horseshoes is a great place for a wedding, the staff are helpful and friendly, the food is great, the gardens are lovely and good for photographs with a view to die for out over the Roaches! There is accommodation so the bride can get ready at the venue (or stay the night before with her bridesmaids) and the bride and groom and guests can stay the night of the wedding too so not to worry about transport. So if you are planning your wedding, then take a look at The Three Horseshoes Nr Leek, you won't be disappointed.
	Wedding Design / Planning Organising your big day is a lot of work and so many people don't even know where to start ... do I need this, how do I go about organising that???

	Routemaster Buses Ltd. I'm always very happy when I know that my bride & groom have booked one of these buses as they always bring a smile to my face, it's such a great way to get your guests to and from your venue(s) especially if there is limited parking. Their vehicles are presented to the highest standard for your special day, whether for transporting the bride to the serivce or for your guests between venues they can travel together at ease with a novelty factor.
