January/February 2020 |

Firstly, let me wish all our readers a very happy New Year and if you’re starting out 2020 with a sparkly new ring on your finger – congratulations, the journey starts here!
The festive period is peak proposal season and with Valentine’s Day on the calendar this issue, love is in the air and there’s a buzz of expectation. It’s not just the engagement ring that’s in the spotlight, we showcase a whole range of jewellery and accessories to make your big day shine, starting on page 63.
We’re excited for all the fabulous spring and summer weddings to come and although the first green shoots may still seem a way off, we’re already swooning over gorgeous bridal gowns blooming with pretty floral details (page 71).
However, while the long winter nights are still with us, now is the perfect time to get cracking with the planning. Doing your homework is vital, so when the weather’s frosty outside, you can cosy up with your other half to browse the pages of this issue. Packed full of wedding loveliness, it’s a treasure trove of ideas including three fabulous photo shoots showcasing the talents of local creatives right on your doorstep. Don’t forget to save the details of all your favourite things to create a moodboard or Instagram story. Your suppliers will love you for it, as it makes their job so much easier if they can share your big-day vision.
Happy planning! | |

Spotlight on Portsmouth |

Port House
If waterside views are on your wedding wish list, check out this modern venue. Looking out over the marina and the yachts, you could almost be in Monaco! There’s outside seating so you can make the most of the fabulous setting, a waterfront terrace and patio; perfect for reception drinks or a barbecue when the weather’s fine.
Inside the bright and airy space, the contemporary furnishing includes a bespoke bar made from reclaimed railway sleepers and a feature ceiling. Ceremonies are held in the Regatta Room or the larger Ocean Suite which can host up to 120 family and friends for your ’I dos’ followed by a sit-down meal. For larger receptions with up to 300 guests, a marquee can be attached to the side.
We love... that the on-site caterers award-winning Vanilla Catering produce bespoke meals using local Hampshire produce and couples can enjoy a complimentary tasting before the big day.
