Your London Wedding - May/June 2020 (Issue 71)

6 A s I type, weddings are prohibited and no one knows when these restrictions will be lifted, which makes these worrying and difficult times for couples who had planned to wed this summer. While we wait, we’re here to help on two counts: first, advice for those who need to postpone or revisit their plans (turn to page 94 to read wise words from London suppliers) and, second, an escape from all that worry – after all, they can’t cancel our dreams. And on that note, we’ve got plenty of inspiration for those of you still in the planning stages – from the glorious real weddings featured on page 26 to two beautiful shoots (pages 75 and 80). And while our favourite London haunts may be shuttered for the time being, we can show our solidarity with words – we’ve featured some of our top spaces on page 15; many are offering virtual tours too – so click through to their websites and explore at your leisure.
