Your Cheshire and Merseyside Wedding - Page number 6 - May/June 2021 (Issue 57)

6 Liverpool is an oh-so cool location to tie the knot and you’ll want to make the most of it by getting out and about with your photographer. I love this shot of bride Katy in front of Akse’s mural of Jürgen Klopp on Jordan Street. Read all about her big day from page 26. WIN! A honeymoon in London, worth £2,000. Turn to page 79 for more. There’s something so romantic about saying “I do” at the water’s edge. Check out our roundup of waterside and coastal venues from page 18. Our fashion editor Claire has rounded up some incredible modern ballgown designs for you this issue, including this simple and structured jaw-dropper. Turn to page 54 for more. Melissa and fiancé Dave have settled on a blush pink and sage colour palette for their big day. This is the style of bouquet she has in mind. Turn to page 80 to read the first instalment of her bride’s diary. www.kev inbrownphotography.co.uk www.kate mccarthyphotography.co.uk I ’m going to be a bridesmaid! As you’ll have gathered, I’m giddy with excitement and couldn’t wait to share my news with you. Our dear Melissa Barker, fellow editor here at CWM, popped to the question last month asking me if I’d accept this huge honour. I’m thrilled to be taking this journey with such a dear friend and we’ll be sharing our learnings every step of the way, so don’t miss Melissa’s bridal diary and moodboard over on page 80. Even bigger news of course is something that affects us all: Boris’ roadmap out of this mess. Here at CWM HQ we were thrilled to see a plan back to wedding normality. It’ll be a slow process, but with everyone pulling together and staying safe it should mean we see our beloved weddings and wedding industry back in full force by the end of June. That in itself is cause for celebration. On that note, let’s take a look at what we’ve got for you this issue as I round up my highlights across these two pages. Enjoy and keeeep planning!
