Take a peek down the rabbit hole with the whimsical Alice-in-Wonderland-inspired wedding shoot featured from page 73. Personally I love this time of year, although the weather can still be nippy, there’s the promise of sunny days ahead and the spring flowers are coming into bloom. I don’t know about you, but from the moment the clocks go forward, I immediately feel more energised. The days seem longer and it’s great to leave home and return from work in the daylight. Feeling newly energised, I’m preparing to get to grips with all those niggling tasks at home that I’ve mothballed over the winter. So, if like me, you’ve been a bit sluggish with the to-do list over the winter, now is the time to get cracking. This issue is packed with positivity, seasonal inspiration and real weddings to help you. Whether you’re in the ‘postponed from 2020’ camp, the ‘original 2021’ crew or your status is ‘newly engaged’, the wedding planning will be gathering momentum in the coming months – and you’ve come to the right place for inspiration! This issue is crammed with tips and advice on everything from the wedding photography to lovely local venues, plus fabulous photo shoots and more to showcase what’s on offer in the region. And if you’re looking to nail your wedding day bridal style, we’ve got you covered with everything from dressing the whole bridal gang, to hair and beauty, fashion and accessories. Packed with all the regular features, honeymoons and more, we’re excited and hope you are too! Enjoy!
