      <image:title>BLOG - Creative and romantic Valentine’s Day ideas at low cost or for free - Who inspired Valentine’s Day in the first place, and why? It’s believed there are a couple of St. Valentines that could have inspired Valentine’s Day. One contender defied Emperor Claudius’ ban on marriages and married couples in the name of love anyway - and was sentenced to death for it! In that light, proposing on Valentine’s Day does seem pretty badass - and maybe a cliche we can appreciate more? But, you don’t have to take such mortal risks to pop the question or actually get married on this international day of romance. Even if humanist weddings aren’t legally binding either (yet), you can have a humanist celebrant create a non-religious ceremony that is 100% personalised and inclusive, as a separate celebration to getting the legal license.</image:title>

      <image:title>BLOG - How to DIY your wedding - On a sunny, but very windy May day on a small island in the south of Denmark, I got married for around £2,000 and had everything we wanted. With the help of friends and family, we created most of the wonderful elements ourselves. Locally grown sunflowers and daisies for my bouquet as well as table decorations (plus lots of cheap pretty tea light holders from IKEA) were sourced and arranged by my best friend and her mum. A good friend and newly qualified dress designer made my dress from raw silk that my father-in-law brought back from India. A friend of my Dad’s let us hire his Ford T cheaply. My cousin, and brilliant amateur photographer, took all the photos in a natural reportage style. The food was created by a local chef, who let us hire his venue on a less popular date, making it ⅓ cheaper than in peak season. The one thing I just couldn’t do without was a proper jazz band. I didn’t know anyone in a jazz band then, so that was our most expensive element. But you gotta have a jazz band, right?</image:title>
