An Essex Wedding - January/February 2021 (Issue 96)

Marry now, party later! Can’t wait to marry the love of your life, but still want the ultimate celebration with all your friends and family when this is over? We hear you! “The good thing about this option is that you’re already married, so you eliminate the stress of the ceremony and go straight into party mode! Once the pandemic is over, everyone will be on a high, so make it a party to remember with mirror balls, coloured uplighters and LED dancefloors for your guests to boogie the night away on – and for you to finally have that all- important first dance!” – Tia Demir & Sadie Norman, Mediterranean Occasions “Neon is so on-trend and will be around for the next couple of seasons at least! Perfect for throwing an epic party, we love seeing it for photo booth styling and awesome backdrops for the most memorable photos.” – Katie Barnes, The Perfect Wedding Shop “Put your names in lights with a personalised wall projection, while giant LOVE letters pack a punch in any room. Create a grand entrance with floor- standing crystal globes or blossom arches. Why not hire a photo booth to capture all the fun and give your guests a lasting keepsake of the best party ever.” – Tia Demir & Sadie Norman, Mediterranean Occasions “Many couples want to press on with their weddings, despite the restrictions. Becoming a married couple is, after all, the core purpose of a wedding. However, that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the big party you’ve been dreaming of. Having a small ceremony now will cut out big chunks of expense, and delaying the party will allow even more time to save and plan for a big celebration at a later stage, so you can add a little wow factor. Think GIF photo booths, fire dancers or even alpacas!” – Bryony Chinnery, Hullabaloo Events www.asyo uwishballoons.co.uk www.thep erfectweddingshop.co.uk www.face book.com/beautifulthingseventhire https://occa sionsweddingflowers.co.uk CONTACT OUR EXPERTS: Rebbecca Whitehair | As You Wish Balloons & Events | www.asyouwishballoons.co.uk Emma Fews | Elf Occasions | www.elfoccasions.co.uk Bryony Chinnery | Hullabaloo Events | www.hullabalooevents.co.uk Tia Demir & Sadie Norman | Mediterranean Occasions | www.venuestylist.co.uk Michelle Broom | Occasions & Celebrations | https://occasionsweddingflowers.co.uk Katie Barnes | The Perfect Wedding Shop | www.theperfectweddingshop.co.uk Kelly Holman | Beautiful Things Event Hire | www.facebook.com/beautifulthingseventhire 65 VENUE STYLING
