What a great year so far!!

The wedding fayres are done, and WOW what an amazing impact that's had! All round the midlands we've been talking to our hens and helping them get their plans together before the summer really hits.

 

If you're still not sure on what your plans are maybe this will help... We have won ANOTHER award!

 

The Leicester Mercury Business award for customer service! It's taken a lot of hard work, but it's definitely well earned. Something tells me that we are the perfect venue for your hen night :)

 

So come on... Bring your hens down and show them just how great we are. We guarantee you an easy booking from beginning to end, fresh food, a buzzing environment and a tailored package to suit exactly what you want.

Bistro Live, Rain or Shine!

It's that time of year again when April showers are approaching, but there's never a dim moment here :)

However, lets not talk about the glum weather because... Summer is on it's way!!!

For me when I think of summer, I think of dresses, cocktails and a lot of fun... Hmmm.. Sounds like Bistro Live!

For any of you who are sorting our those summer hen nights what more could you ask for? People waiting on you all night, a fresh 3-course meal, cocktails, decorations galore and dancing the whole night away.

Becki from Saturday night certainly had something to say about her hen night, ''Was such good fun, we are all talking about the next occasion we can come for!!!''

So come and treat yourself and have the hen night to remember just like Becki :)

See you all soon!

Another award for Bistro Live??

Once again this goes to show our customer service skills are FLAWLESS!

 

We are a finalist in the Leicester Mercury Business awards! Wooohooo!

 

I think it's pretty safe to say, we are going to to smash the rest of this year, so help us do that and more!

 

Why wouldn't you want to bring your hens here for a night you will never forget? A night where you can laugh off all of your wedding drama's and just let your hair down. A night where nothing else matters but you- after all it is your last night of freedom.

 

If you won't believe me, will you believe Wendy who came recently for a hen do?

 

''I have had two fantast nights out at Bistro live. I will definitely return and certainly recommend to other. Thank you to everyone involved for making us Welcome :)''

 

So why don't you come and give us a try and see if you agree with Wendy?

 

Speak soon :)

Wedding fairs with Bistro Live

What a fantastic weekend we have had here!

 

First of all we had Valentines day! I know we spent all week talking about our plans, whether we spent it with our partners or forgetting about 1 silly day in the year and having a night in with the girls!

 

Secondly we had another wedding fayre at Colwick Hall in Nottingham. You can always tell when someone's getting married because nothing stops them! Even with the typical English weather there was still a great turn out!

 

A beautiful venue, shoes, hair stylists, photo booths, a chocolate fountain and saving the best until last... US! What more could a bride-to-be want?

 

For any of you that are after some extra bits of advice and hen night idea's come and see us this weekend at Eastwood Hall in Nottingham!

 

See you all there x

 

Very handy bridal tips!!

Hi

You're going to love us! We've got a massive treat for you!!

Your wedding day is the most special day of your life and you don’t want anything going wrong, especially your makeup!  To think you’ll be reminded of it every time you look at your photographs…. shiver…what a thought!

We recently had a very interesting chat with Sheelagh Powell, one of the best professional makeup artists in the whole of the Midlands area. She was telling us about all the makeup horror stories she’s heard over the years.  From looking like a clown to coming out in a rash, it always amazes her how some brides can get themselves into these situations.

To ensure you don’t make the same mistakes, Sheelagh has kindly made available her very informative guide on…

5 Makeup Disasters To Avoid On Your Wedding Day!

We strongly advise you to download it here to ensure your wedding makeup is exactly as you want it on the day.

You might also be interested to know that Sheelagh uses airbrush makeup, a popular choice amongst celebrities such as Pixie Lott, Sienna Miller and Kylie Minogue! It involves spraying a fine mist of product onto your skin using a compressor and airbrush ‘gun’.  It guarantees to…

·         Feel weightless on your skin

·         Look flawless

·         Be smudge-proof for up to 24 hours

·         Eliminate shine in your wedding photos

We really hope you find this useful and wish you all the best with the planning of your wedding.  We look forward to meeting you and your bridal party very soon!

Kind Regards

The Bistro Live Team

Bistro Live has got WEDDING FEVER!

Here at the Bistro Live office, we have got even more wedding fever than usual this week as one of our lovely office team got married on Saturday!

Our lovely Sukie tied the knot on Saturday morning at The Guildhall in Leicester!

Of course, it was very fortunate that it turned out to be the hottest day of the year so far reaching a scorching 32C! 

Sukie's absolutely loves Alice in Wonderland (Gary even proposed to her outside the Alice in Wonderland statue in Paris!) so they chose their theming accordingly. Thankfully nobody was asked to dress up and the theming was based around the centre pieces, the cake and other delightful little touches like the invitations!

It's very safe to say, one of the main talking points of the day (other than how stunning Sukie looked of course) was the CAKE! Themed to absolute perfection, Theresa (from Theresa's Treasures) made the wedding cake completely unique and left guests in utter amazement. Trust me when I say, if you want a cake for any occasion - Theresa is person you need to get in touch with! Click here to go to her Facebook page!

Sukie's not back in the office until next week but when she's back, she is going to blog what she thinks are the top 5 things you simply can't miss out of your big day!
