Your Herts and Beds Wedding - April/May 2021 (Issue 85)

FASHION ICON Rachel Sokhal Bridal Accessories has collaborated with Ami Elisah Bridal to introduced a new collection of veils which will beautifully complement the company’s already popular hair accessory range. Owner Rachel Sokhal says, “A beautiful veil elevates and completes a bride’s overall look and I couldn’t think of a more natural accoutrement for brides who love to embrace traditions. ”From a simple cathedral-length veil that works effortlessly with lace gowns to a pearl-embellished veil that looks striking against an elegant dress – there’s something for all brides in the new collection. The full range will be officially launched at the end of April and available to purchase online, or from Rachel’s Bedfordshire studio.

Kirsty says, “Make sure you show a photo of your wedding dress to your florist as they’ll be able to advise a shape and size to complement your build and dress-style. As a trained florist, we have an eye for creating the perfect bridal bouquet to enhance your shape and dress without detracting from the gown itself.” Check out: www.the-flower-mill.co.uk Big-day transport MC Wedding Cars has won the One To Watch Award from the Four Counties Wedding Awards despite the challenging year caused by COVID-19. Couples nominated the company and their kind words and recommendations were a much-needed boost at the end of a difficult year. The business started back in 2019; Michael Roberts says, “I had just been made redundant in 2018 and was seeking a new job. We were looking for transport for my daughter’s wedding simultaneously, and I came across an eight-seater wedding bus for sale. Thinking this would be a good idea for a new business venture, we purchased the bus with my redundancy money and MC Wedding Cars was born.” Check out: https://mcweddingcars.co.uk PICTURE PERFECT The Photography Mill is now offering complimentary engagement photo shoots with all new 2022 full-day wedding packages!
