Discover how to incorporate a rustic style into wedding cakes with help from Roseberry Cakes. Keep up-to-date with all the latest happenings in the world of grooms. Hello lovely readers, and welcome to another issue of Your East Midlands Wedding. It’s finally summer, my favourite time of year, and I’m really enjoying the warmer temperatures and sunny skies. There’s something so refreshing about the time of year, I have so much more energy and there’s even more to do. I personally love the brighter evenings and venturing outdoors more in the garden and enjoying family barbecues, beach days and picnics. This summer will be one of the best seasons we’ve had in a long while with weddings back in full swing. Plus, my best friend and colleague Melissa will be exchanging vows in July to the lovely Dave – I’m super excited! As a bridesmaid, there hasn’t been anything better than helping someone your care about plan such an important event. I’m so proud of what they have both achieved, and I know their day will be wonderful. As we reach the busy wedding season, it’s great to see so many talented suppliers working hard to create dream events. This time of year is perfect for weddings, especially al fresco events, and the longer daylight means there’s no rush for taking memorable images – plus, I love a good golden-hour shot! In this issue, we’ve focused on venue styling inspiration to help you transform any venue to match your chosen theme and colour scheme. It’s surprising how the smallest details can make such a difference! Our fashion and beauty features showcase advice from top suppliers to help you look your big-day best. We’ve got you covered from hair tips and make-up inspiration to top fashion advice. As we reach our 50th issue, I’ve taken the time to flick through some of our most memorable issues – I’m so proud of what we have all achieved over the years! This region has so much to offer from talented suppliers, showstopping venues and inspirational couples. Here’s to the following 50 issues! That’s all from me; now sit back, relax and celebrate anything and everything wedding. Happy planning!
