“It is always a joy to partner with a talented blogger”

“It is always a joy to partner with a talented blogger”

by | 18, June, 2020 | news, testimonials

“The Ashmolean Events team have been lucky enough to collaborate on several features on Nicola’s Hanami Dream wedding blog.

It is always a joy to be able to partner with a talented blogger that has a flair for capturing a couples’ wedding journey and tell the story of a venue, in a way that inspires couples for their special day.

I have been following Nicola’s blog for a while now, both as an event professional, and on a personal level from the perspective of a bride-to-be. I absolutely love how she collates her styled photoshoots to provide inspirational ideas for weddings themes, providing great tips and insights into wedding trends.

I particularly enjoy reading the features on wedding traditions – packed full of fun and interesting ideas on how people have celebrated, and put their own unique twist on rituals like the couples toast to the wedding getaway car!”

“Nicola kindly agreed to assist our small, independent business in starting our own blog for our website. Being an award winning blogger, I couldn’t think of anyone better to help us on our way.

She gave us some great top tips that were easy to follow but in enough detail to really make an impact.
We now have our blog up and running thanks to Nicola.”
