If you’ve just become engaged, we recommend starting to plan early to avoid disappointment. This not only ensures you secure your preferred suppliers but also allows you to enjoy the process of creating your dream day step by step. Embrace the beauty of summer with abundant florals, as this season offers more options than others. Imagine the vibrant hues of roses, gardenias, carnations, sunflowers, hydrangeas, dahlias, peonies, sweet peas and more, all coming together to create a picturesque setting for your special day. We all know the Great British weather can be unpredictable! Even if you’re exchanging vows at the peak of summer outside, it’s always essential to have a wet-weather backup plan in case of any summer showers – it’s better to be safe than sorry. Most venues will offer a space indoors as an alternative if the heavens open, ensuring your day goes on without a hitch. For catering, keep things light, fresh and crisp, as the last thing guests will want is a hearty, heavy meal in the heat before dancing the night away. Some popular options include picnics, hog roasts, BBQs, delicate seafood, afternoon teas and more! Ensure seasonal food is being used to ensure top flavour and taste. Keep guests hydrated with cold water, juices or even fresh lemonade. It’s a chance to get creative and offer your guests a culinary adventure.
