It is often said that the two most stressful things in life are getting married and moving house. That didn't stop our Designer, Keith, who did both in the same week! Keith and his bride, Christine, moved into their new home on Saturday 12th June, and were due to get married the following Saturday.

The civil ceremony and reception took place at the beautiful Amber Lodge near Acle, Norfolk. It was a small do, with 30 of their closest family and friends attending. Although there were some anxieties over the move (is there such a thing as a stress-free move?), the wedding went without a hitch. This is until Keith and Christine were told by the registrar that their marriage certificate, which had been painstakingly hand written, had caught fire! It had been accidentally laid on a tealight candle whilst the ceremony was being finalised.

Although the weather was somewhat disappointing, there was a break in the clouds for pictures to be taken outside. Keith, Christine, and guests thoroughly enjoyed the food Amber Lodge provided. A delicious indoor BBQ was the main culinary event, followed by canapes and a late supper.
They honeymooned in Dorset for two weeks, staying at a wonderful country cottage retreat.
The wedding was a huge success, and everyone at Exhibitions2Go wishes Keith and Christine much happiness for the future. (Lets hope that they don't have too many heated discussions over all that decorating!).

Exhibitions2go Goes Wild!

Okay, so we haven't become so in-tune with our inner selves that we've decided to relocate offices to a teepee off the North Norfolk coast and done away with all worldly possessions (as this could be decidedly detrimental to business)! But we have been making the most of the great outdoors with some seriously nice 'youthful' people, defying all rumours that the kids of today can only function when attached to an electrical device.

Yes both big boss Chris (no that's not him at the top!) and our charming designer Michelle have embarked on some 'non-design related' extra curricular activities; You may have already sighted Chris popping out from a bush in 'Tyrells Wood' where he's been 'leading' Scouts on team building activities. Chris greatly enjoys passing his wisdom onto the kids, lets just hope the kids feel the same! Chris is hoping to embark on many more 'fun filled' Scouting activities over this summer so keep your eyes peeled.

Moving to a slightly higher level of expertise (sorry Chris!) Michelle has been helping out Dereham Sixth Form student's on their Duke of Edinburgh expedition training on the North Norfolk coast. Any excuse for her to dive under some canvas and she's off, so spending the weekend under the stars was really her idea of heaven! The sixth form pupils she assisted we're practising for their Silver Award which involves planning, training for and doing a 3 day (2 night) expedition laden down with full kit! All in all it was a fantastic week-end and thankfully everyone made it back to base in one piece, all be it a little sore!

So back to normality now for the Exhibitions2go team until the call of nature beckons them once more...

How to put up a Banner Stand...

Banner stands are dead easy to assemble when you know how. However, they can be a bit tricky if you are unsure (or slightly vertically challenged). Once you have pushed the pole into the slot, move away from the base, still holding the pole and tilting the stand as you do so. This will enable you to pull the graphic up to the top and slot it into position. Easy!
