Your Sussex Wedding - Jun/Jul 2019 (Issue 79)

6 Grab a dose of retail therapy with my hue of the moment: mint green Love and marriage J une holds something dear to me, as it’s the month in which my amazing parents tied the knot back in the heady days of the 1970s. So while I get caught up in flowers, dresses and styling, my dear mum and dad, with their 46 years of matrimony, remind me of the bigger picture. After the best day of your lives comes something so much more – a marriage – and, my goodness, that’s worth celebrating. So with no further ado, let’s talk about our spectacular summer issue. As I’m sure you’ve gathered by this point, food is a subject very dear to my heart…and stomach! We’ve put together a mouth-watering roundup of delectable delicacies. Head over to page 91, but perhaps not on an empty tum! Finding the right photographer can be a minefield. Hands up – before I began my journey here at CWM Towers, I had no idea of the huge spectrum of options. A photographer is a photographer, right? Wrong! There’s documentary vs. traditional; black and white vs. colour; engagement shoots and first-look shoots. We’ve put together a gorgeous variety of showstopping images so you can get a clearer picture of how you’d like your W-day to be captured. Feast your eyes on the feature from page 75. If you’re still hungry for more inspiration, we’ve got a wealth of glorious regional shoots and stunning real weddings for you this issue. From coast to country and rustic to quirky, we’ve got you covered. Happy planning, one and all!
