I’m a big fan of Devon-based wedding venue Harefield Barn in Crediton so when the owner, Deborah got in touch with me with the real wedding of Carina and Matthew, I jumped at the chance to feature it. Their special day is shared on page 33. With Easter and the rainy spell a distant memory, wedding season is now upon us. For those of you who have just become engaged (maybe you enjoyed an Easter or coronation proposal) then congratulations, you’re at the beginning of your wedding planning journey and I’m hoping you’ll find some time to read this over the many May bank holidays that we have this year! For those of you putting the finishing touches to a summer celebration then take inspiration from our local real-life wedding couples and advice from a host of expert regional suppliers. That’s not all – there’s also all the latest wed-day news, exclusive offers, fashion, beauty and European hot-spots for dreamy honeymoons closer to home. Until the next issue...
