Your Bristol & Somerset Wedding - April/May 2020 (Issue 76)

6 I always know spring has arrived when the evenings start to get lighter and I have an overwhelming urge to watch Four Weddings and a Funeral – my unofficial way of marking the start of wedding season. Unfortunately though, during these unprecedented times, there will be a wait for the two spring weddings I had in the diary this year. If this is your first time joining us, then be prepared to be inspired by all the amazingly talented suppliers who feature across these pages. I’m super-nosey so I particularly love our real wedding features (starting on page 26), and our lovely fashion editor, Claire Ridley, always has a treat with her incredible dress picks (page 58). Don’t know where to start with your wed-min? We have three whole pages of advice from local experts in our Planning SOS feature (page 49). If you’re longing for some sunshine, then we hear you! Check out our travel section (page 90). We can still dream for 2021. Enjoy! Hannah x Distributed by Marketforce (UK) Ltd, 5 Churchill Place, Canary Wharf, London, E14 5HU.
