DIA SHING NTS SHING EVENTS & PUBLISHING cwe COUNTY WEDDING EVENTS Your Herts and Beds Wedding is 100 and doesn’t it look great for its age? That’s right, well into our 16th year of publishing, we’re celebrating our 100th issue! I’ve been the editor of this title since issue 78 and feel incredibly proud to have been part of its history. The first issue hit the shelves in the 2007 and boy have things changed since then! I managed to find a copy of issue one in the archives and dusted it off to find that fashion had more in common with the 1990s than they do the 2020s. Designs were all about taffeta, boned bodies and bags of embellishment – words I hardly hear these days in relation to wedding dresses. What’s more, it was rare indeed to see a groom not sporting a cravat. However, some things don’t change. Looking into the world of wedding entertainment, the editor Demelza at the time told readers, “Your wedding music will have a lasting impression on your guests. It forms an integral part of the day and can create just the right atmosphere, meaning that you have to choose carefully and consider what is suitable along with what best reflects your personal taste.” It’s as true now as it ever was! Your Herts & Beds Wedding has been bringing local wedding content to lovely nearlyweds for the best part of two decades, becoming a much-valued go-to source of inspiration and advice for many tying the knot in these gorgeous counties. We exist to champion the local and very much hope that we can continue to do so for many moons to come. We’d never have reached this ripe old age (still looking good) without our lovely readers and the region’s amazing suppliers who’ve supported us all these years.
