✨2021 - what a start to the year✨
.

With our 200+ new followers over the last couple of weeks, we’ve decided we should say a big HI! We are Barry & Kerrie - the faces behind Typical Type. (Of course our daughter -head of van cleaning - Myla needs a mention too 😂)
.
.
We’ve met a few of you virtually recently, and we’re really hopeful more normal times to return to us all soon. Fear not however - we are here, always here to listen, evolve and adapt to your plans. Nothing is ever too much trouble - so if you need us, just ask.
.
.
Aswell as an extensive range of lighting, and a growing range of furniture options - we should have something to cater for everyone. All of our furniture has been handmade by us - you won’t find it anywhere else. Of course though - we firmly believe it’s YOUR day, your way - so please do let us know if your looking for something unique!
.
.
We’ve always prided ourselves for taking away any unnecessary stress from your day - we’ve some really great industry friends and work with some great venues. You can be confident placing your big day in our hands - we won’t let you down. Our business has been around since 2013, so we have some experience too 🤣😂
.
.
If you don’t get an email from us straight away, or at some ghastly hour - fear not, we both have other careers too. Barry is an airline pilot, and Kerrie as cabin crew - both of us work for one of the major UK airlines. That’s how our love story started! Kerrie also runs her own online clothing boutique - check it out over at @typicallyme_x . Don’t ask how we juggle it all 😆
.
.
For now, from our family to yours - stay safe and well 💕B & K

When @mcaesthetics.uk hit 100,000 followers, is there any wonder they wanted to mark the milestone in style?!

Of course our 6ft large lettering was the perfect way! Oh and did we tell you our lettering featured in @hellomag recently ?! 😎

Modern glitz and glam meets the backdrop of @jervaulxabbey ! We think this one worked out really well as a top table, thanks to concept, styling & planning by Jen at @myprettiesuk

Let’s talk small weddings 💕

Considering a small, intimate and dare I say “Covid secure” wedding for your big day? None of the details or special touches need to be forgotten about.
.
.
Here’s an example of a 15 person reception we helped put together recently at @eastriddlesdenhallweddings - we were really happy this worked out - our feature canopy tables we think were a nice addition and made what can be a big space really cozy and inviting.

As some of you may have seen, a few months ago I took the plunge to start my own online women’s boutique!
.
.
Sooo you might be wondering why I’m doing a post on here... Well, I just wanted to showcase some of the items I stock to help spread the word! I have lots of great, gorgeous and comfy loungewear (perfect for lockdown living!!!) but I also stock other fab items. It ranges from, day time cute looks to gorgeous, ‘cocktails with the girls’ type looks (for when some normality resumes!!!!)
.
.
Please go and give my business page a follow @typicallyme_x. The link to the website is on there. Plus I am currently offering 15% off if you enter NY2021 at the checkout 🛍🥰 Thank you, Kerrie x

🥳 Rising Stars of 2021? 🥳
.
.
.
Ok, we have all been dealt a bitter blow with this latest round of government restrictions. I’m sure we are all feeling the strain of it in some way. This photograph is a little ironic as it forms part of a collection for a magazine feature of future stars taken very recently. Anyhow -
.
.
.
OUR COUPLES - I don’t even know what to say. It must be so hard to know what to do for the best. Do you down scale the day, hold off for better times or even cancel altogether? There is no right or wrong answer. Just be assured we are here to listen and to adapt to your plans. Just get in touch. We are really busy with admin - so please give us a chance to respond.
.
.
.
VENUES & SUPPLIER FRIENDS - gosh we really have been dealt another bitter blow. It’s a whole bunch of emotions isn’t it? If you want a rant/chat/virtual hug then let us know. (Some of you already know I’m a master at ranting 🤣😁)
.
.
.
BORIS & RISHI - yeah I appreciate it’s tough making these big decisions, but where is the support for businesses - particularly hospitality and events? We’ve been running on virtually a zero income stream for 12 months almost. Why are you not offering ANY support to limited companies? It just doesn’t seem fair!
.
.
.
Lastly - to answer the first question - (Rising stars of 2021) we are ALL rising stars. We’re ALL having to deal with our own battles day to day. We will ALL get through this, together. Stay safe people! B & K💕

TOP NINE OF 2020! . . . Well what can we say about

TOP NINE OF 2020!
.
.
.
Well what can we say about 2020? We had 192 weddings planned, and dozens of birthdays and parties. We’ve done 7! 😩
.
.
.
Even with the terrible year we have ALL had, we’re so glad we’ve been able to sprinkle a little Typical Type magic!
.
.
.
To all our couples - we’re here every day for you. If you need us - email anytime. To our supplier friends and venues - thanks for listening to our rants (you know who you are 😂🙃)
.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 💕🎉🥳🍾

A great recent treat to work with Grace & Emma for their Covid secure wedding! .

Might be a little early, but from our family to yours - a very Merry Christmas to you all!
.

We’re going to take a couple of weeks off and recharge. We might have done almost zero weddings this year - but boy it’s been a rollercoaster, and like a lot of you I am absolutely drained!
.
.
.
Of course emails will still be answered and we will still be attending to our existing commitments.
.
.
Until the New Year here’s a sneak peek of something big coming soon 🙂
