Your Bristol & Somerset Wedding - Feb/Mar 2020 (Issue 75)

6 W elcome, lovely readers, to our 75 th issue. It’s so exciting that we’ve reached such a big milestone and I know the big 8-0 will be here before we know it. If you’re joining us for the first time following a festive proposal *squeals*, then get ready to meet the best suppliers our region has to offer. We’re passionate (ahem, obsessed) about showcasing the local wedding industry to couples, and every type of nuptials from glamorous to rustic and contemporary to historic has graced these pages over the years. We’ve got such a treat for you this issue with inspiring real weddings (starting on page 30), styled shoots (pages 71 and 99) and 11 pages of swoon-worthy fashion. We’ll also introduce you to some of the leading caterers in the area (page 55) and help you plan the hen party to end all hen parties (page 63). Enjoy!
