November/December 2021

 
Christmas is coming, that’s for sure! What’s more, at the time of writing this, things were looking positive for plenty of the festive cheer with family and friends that we’re accustomed to. Although we don’t like to count our chickens (or should I say turkeys) before they hatch, since restrictions were eased, the floodgates have opened and 2022 looks set to be one of the busiest years for weddings in decades!

With the Christmas and New Year proposal season likely to add to the surge, we’re looking forward to bringing you lots of lovely local weddings to inspire and excite you in the months ahead. The ripple effects of the pandemic will be felt for some time and will influence wedding trends moving forward. Increased demand for weekday and outdoor weddings is likely to continue, along with greener more sustainable options for the big day.

Many of the important things about getting married have been brought into sharper focus too, like the vows and individual, special details such as handmade items to add that extra personal touch. To check out just some of the talented local suppliers offering bespoke ranges, turn to page 57. Don’t miss our gallery of wonderful wedding photos on page 51 either, to see how to make the most of your big-day backdrop.

Packed with all the usual bridal fashion, beauty tips, honeymoons, inspiration and more, we’re excited for all the wonderful weddings to come!

Have a very merry Christmas, see you in 2022!

Leweston

Live the fairytale and host your wedding at this stunning venue. Leweston Manor oozes character and style with Art Deco interiors and a wealth of wow-factor wedding spaces. The elegant Georgian styled building provides an impressive big-day backdrop and with 46 acres of sweeping grounds, including the Nuns Walkway, Italian Garden and hidden gem the Belvedere, there’s no shortage of standout photo opportunities.

With three ceremony spaces to choose from, you can tie the knot indoors or out. Flanked by woodlands, the Belvedere provides an idyllic setting. The oval paved area commands panoramic views of the Blackmore Vale and woodlands and you can exchange vows watched by up to 100 loved ones. The Lecture Room in the manor house is the largest indoor ceremony area. You can marry here overlooking the Italian garden and host a sit-down wedding breakfast afterwards for 80 guests or the Eleanor Library is ideal for intimate weddings with its wooden floor, high ceiling and walls lined with books. For more lavish celebrations you can host a party to remember with up to 200 family and friends in the wedding marquee, dressed and styled to suit your theme.
