Sorry its been so long since I last wrote anything, I have been extremely busy, but for wonderful reasons.

2017 has proven a very busy year and with over 20 weddings scheduled this summer, I shall be performing often and couldn’t be more excited to be apart of such a special day both around Barrow in furness, Bowness, Grange and around Lancashire.

Ive also had some fantastic reviews from 2016 weddings and events all on my facebook page, my CDs are selling well and I’ve reached £200 for Alzheimers UK charity.

I’ve been working hard on my latest venture which is my “Vintage in the Lakes’ wedding Fayre, both the events in May and February have proved very popular and showcased some amazing wedding suppliers who specialise in vintage, alternative and quirky wedding ideas. I’ve met some great wedding photographers, florists and bridal companies to name just a few, who I now recommend to my clients as I believe greatly in promoting and supporting those In my industry and my next Wedding Fayre is 21st May 2017 at Chequers Hotel, Dalton in Furness, 12-4, free entry and of course I too will be exhibiting and performing live!

Another project which started of a dream idea has kept me very busy, fulfilled and happy is my “Be.Vocal” singing teaching and workshops with over 20 students coming to me weekly, mainly children, we have put on a few shows in the local area which has really helped with confidence growing and also we have raised money for 2 local charities also. The parents are all very complimentary too, and it looks like its gonna keep growing!

Im off for a well earned holiday 6th April, to LA and Vegas, to enjoy some sunshine and a rock n roll/pin up festival called “Viva las Vegas”, so I will be testing out the “out of office” features, so please contact me before then with any queries and I will return to work 21st April!

Finally Im delighted to of found out this week that I have been nominated for the Country Brides North West Wedding Awards, so all my hard work has paid off and my past brides and clients have ben voting for me, so I will keep you posted on that!

Thanks for reading and supporting me!
