Your Yorkshire Wedding - November/December 2023 (Issue 63)

89 WIN! A honeymoon in Rhodes 51 SUITED AND BOOTED Frank Bird in Wakefield and Barnsley offers personalised grooms’ attire services ensuring the man of the hour and his squad look their best come W-day. Well, hello to all you lovely couples of this fine county, and welcome to my very first issue of Your Yorkshire Wedding. I’m super-excited to bring you the absolute best this area has to offer you and your big day, so let’s dive straight in. As we get to know each other, there’s one thing you’ll grow to understand about me: there’s only one thing I’m as obsessed with as weddings and that’s Christmas! So, I’m giddy with excitement already. Yes, here we are at the end of the another year, and is it me, or did 2023 fly by faster than usual? Mind you, with the pandemic growing more and more distant in our rear view mirrors as weddings embrace a sense of back-to-normality, it’s no wonder really. The highlights for me were the Coronation and Carlos Alcaraz’s brilliant win at Wimbledon, as well as getting to see some more of Europe and, of course, celebrating Your Yorkshire Wedding’s shiny new website! When you’ve read this issue, why not have a look around? There’s plenty on offer to keep you ahead of the curve with your wedding planning. Autumn has been unseasonably warm, so I have everything crossed for some chilly weather as we head into winter; especially for those of you with some cosy December nuptials in store. Summer’s all well and good, but the time comes when it’s great to just snuggle up in your favourite jumper and curl up with your spouse-to-be in front of your favourite Netflix show, or better still, with your tablet and favourite wedding magazine! This issue we let the good times roll with our roundup of local wedding entertainment ideas to ensure your big day is one to remember for everyone involved. What’s more, as we take a look into the world of dressing your bridal party you can make sure your bride tribe or groom’s gang are all hot to trot. Finally, for a touch of winter magic, check out our Hot Topic pages where local experts tell us how to bring the joy of the season to your nuptials. So as ever, enjoy and keeeep planning!
