Your Surrey Wedding - December/January 2024/2025 (Issue 110)

These local florists are the pick of the bunch on page 55. The editor’s letter for the December/January issue is always an interesting one to write, December the month of reflection and January the month of new beginnings together in one place. Last year, on New Year’s Eve my sister-in-law introduced me to an age-old tradition that I just love the symbolism of; on the first stroke of midnight you open the back door to usher out the past year and any of the bad luck it brought; the door is quickly closed again and locked. On the twelfth stroke, the front door is opened to welcome in the New Year and its good fortune. This is something I will make sure I do every year now, hopeful that the slate is magically wiped clean and renewed with incoming hope and goodness in abundance for 2025. Should you be tying the knot this winter, do get in touch (my contact information is below) as I just love, love, love winter nuptials and would be thrilled to feature your big day in Your Surrey Wedding; couples just seem to throw out the rule book at this time of year, focusing on colour, cosiness and creativity. This issue is packed to the brim with inspiration, we have gorgeous real weddings and styled shoots showcasing what we love about the county of Surrey. What’s more, we have some stunning properties where you can tie the knot in winter style in the Winter Venues feature, or in the local areas of Guildford and Woking. Also, shining a spotlight on local talent, check out the wedding flowers and the bridal boutiques articles showcasing local businesses – the ethos of our magazine! It’s been a pleasure sharing our 2024 with you all, and I look forward to seeing what 2025 brings for everyone!
