Planned To Perfection
| Q | What is your advice on a spring wedding? |
| A | Anouska Parsons says: Spring is a wonderful time to get married, with its blooming flowers and fresh spring air, but the weather can be unpredictable! It's a good idea to have a backup plan in case of rain or other inclement weather. If you're planning an outdoor element during your big day, then speak with your venue to ensure you have an indoor option available for a quick turnaround if the sky starts clouding over. Additionally, to ensure your guests are comfortable, provide blankets for cooler evenings, and consider having some indoor areas available for guests to warm up. Celebrate the season by selecting flowers and food that reflect its beauty. Spring brings a variety of stunning blooms like tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths. Pair these with delicious dishes such as grilled salmon, roasted chicken, and fresh seasonal salads. Prioritising locally sourced and seasonal produce for your menu and flower displays is not only good for the environment by reducing transportation emissions, which we are all about, but it also should also save you money. |

Bring on spring
| Q | We're planning our spring wedding, but we're unsure where to start. Do you have any ideas? |
| A | Holly Annetts says: A spring wedding will be fantastic, and the first place to start would be to look for a venue. The time of year in this country can bring all sorts of wonderful weather, so ensure your venue has a back-up option indoors in case of bad weather for al fresco events. Umbrellas can make for great wedding photos, but warmer areas for your guests to congregate are essential. Consider how much natural lighting you can get indoors, as spring is about lighter mornings and evenings. There's also a demand for beautiful pastel colours, and there are plenty of ways that you can include these shades. Putting the focus on your flowers and bridesmaids' dresses are the easiest ways to add colour to your wedding – think light and bright! As spring is the season of new life, flower seeds can make great sustainable wedding favours for the guests to take home. |
