Don’t miss this issue’s Hot Topic, where the county’s suppliers share a wealth of wisdom on planning a wedding sustainably. cwe COUNTY WEDDING EVENTS What with last month’s incredible coronation and the launch of Netflix’s Queen Charlotte, I’m reeling from all things royal at the moment, and feeling very proud indeed to be British! Whether you’re a royalist yourselves, or merely found your May all the merrier being blessed with an extra bank holiday, there’s been something to celebrate. I always think of our readers as queens and kings, princess and princes, and believe you all deserve the royal treatment on your big day, so why not consider adding a regal edge to your nuptials? Jewel-toned colour palettes are certainly seeing a surge in popularity, thanks to their opulent, rich hues; and shades such as purple and red have long been associated with royalty. When it comes to dining, think banqueting tables bedecked in gold cutlery and crystal, with tall candelabra and centrepieces. Of course, add this styling to a stately home wedding venue and you’re there! When it comes to your attire, what could be more royal than a ballgown? Pair a full, extravagant skirt with a dramatic train and veil, and you’ll have guests gasping as you make your grand entrance. If you like this idea, but fear the volume will impede you on the dancefloor, opt for a detachable skirt, allowing you to transform your look into a sleek silhouette for the evening. Finally, your very own crown is a must-have for this theme, whether it’s a flower version for a Queen Titania twist or a bejewelled tiara. As we enter the summer well and truly ready for some sunshine, don’t miss our host of styled shoots and real weddings this issue, all waiting to inspire as you plan for your big day.
