It’s no secret that what we want from our wedding day is changing. Thanks in no small part to the pandemic, inquiries for “runaway weddings” have trebled at one UK firm. Meanwhile, intimate micro-weddings are more in vogue than ever before. Planning any kind of wedding is a huge task […]
Unless you’re blessed with Olympian levels of self-control, you probably feel as though you spend too much time on Instagram – at least sometimes, anyway. Endless scrolling is an easy trap to fall into, so it’s great to hear that the app is testing a “take a break” feature that […]
