Your Cheshire and Merseyside Wedding - September/October 2024 (Issue 77)

Is anyone else still buzzing from the Olympics and Paralympics? I don’t know about you, but my social life was completely on hold while it was on! I can’t believe we have to wait another four years before it rolls around again. As someone whose idea of exercise is getting off the sofa and grabbing a snack, I always admire everyone who takes part. When the time came to write to you for this issue, the Olympic moto got me thinking: faster, higher, stronger – together. It’s that final word that always causes my heart to soar. It’s that one word that truly speaks to what the Olympics is all about. It’s bringing the world together in friendship and camaraderie, and does the same within the teams of each individual competing country. But alongside the elation and pride of celebrating Team GB’s gold medals came the heartbreak and tragedy of the violence taking place throughout our region. It was that word again though that helped me to find some comfort. Together we can all heal. Thinking about how I should broach this issue of Your Cheshire & Merseyside Wedding, the notion of togetherness came to me again. It defines a marriage, doesn’t it? You are, after all, in it together and that’s why you say “I do” and make those vows. You form a forever partnership to navigate life together. I believe that’s the way forward for all of us. Love is a great healer.
