Your Hampshire and Dorset Wedding - January/February 2021 (Issue 84)

WIN! A LUXURY HONEYMOON IN THE SEYCHELLES G ood riddance to 2020, bring on 2021. We’re here and we’re looking forward to all the wonderful weddings to come! Who’d have thought this time last year, that social distancing, face masks and hand sanitiser would ever be part of the big-day conversation. One thing to come out of this ’annus horribilis’ though is proof, if proof was needed, that love wins no matter what. Some couples have opted to marry now and party later, while others have postponed their weddings, keeping calm and planning on! The big day will come and we’re here to help with all the inspiration, latest trends and advice you need. On page 55 local suppliers share their insight into key wedding trends for the year ahead and with sustainability and eco-friendly considerations a top priority for many people, it’s never been more important than now to check out all that’s available on your doorstep. This issue is crammed with local venues, real weddings, fabulous photo shoots and more to showcase what’s on offer in the region. If you’re looking to nail your wedding day bridal style we’ve got you covered from pages 61 to 91 with everything from hair and beauty, to fashion, jewellery and accessories. Packed with all the regular features, honeymoons, inspiration and more, we’re excited and hope you are too! Enjoy!
