Your Herts & Beds Wedding - Dec/Jan 2019 (Issue 77)

6 I ’m writing this editor’s letter with a heavy heart because it’s my very last issue with you guys. I’m handing over the baton after a fabulous five years of being editor of Your Herts & Beds Wedding . I’ve loved every minute and feel very lucky to have played a part in so many couples’ journeys – each and every one has been simply stunning but it doesn’t end here, there’s more to come and you won’t be disappointed. What a gorgeous issue to end on – full of festive inspiration! Whether it’s a contemporary white winter wonderland or a cosy traditional affair, there’s something so magical about seasonal weddings. Make the most of the crisp days and cosy nights, sparkly décor and twinkly lights to create that gorgeous atmosphere. It’s such an exciting time and we’re on hand to help you along the way! Pour the wine (or hot chocolate), light the fire and curl up on the sofa with this wonderful wintry issue. Over and out!
