May/June 2020

 
Happy birthday to us! This is our 80th edition and although we were hoping for an all-bells-and-whistles celebration, these are extraordinary times so instead we’re raising a virtual glass of fizz to toast our landmark anniversary.

We’ve all been working from home and staying in touch, talking to local suppliers and keeping everyone updated via our website and social media. During lockdown it’s been inspiring to hear how people have been rallying and reaching out to help others. Venues, bridal boutiques, cake makers, florists and all the many businesses in the wedding community have been doing their bit, helping anxious couples who are having to reschedule their big day. Despite the challenges we’re all facing, one thing’s for sure, there will still be weddings, beautiful dresses will be worn, cake cut, speeches made and photos taken, and we’ll be here to record and share it all with you, to help and inspire you for when your day comes.

This issue we’ve taken a virtual tour of the region, spotlighting some of the wonderful wedding venues in the picturesque New Forest from page 15 and dipping into romantic locations by the waterside on page 21. There’s a three-page gallery of amazing cakes, starting from page 47 as well as a wealth of tips and advice from local experts covering everything from dressing the bridal party and beauty tips to latest fashion, bridal trends and more.

Enjoy reading and stay safe!

Balmer Lawn Hotel & Spa

Set in the heart of the New Forest, you can’t miss this landmark hotel. Set back behind the cricket pitch it’s a perfect mix of traditional and contemporary. With sun-drenched terraces and beautiful gardens, you’ll be spoilt for choice for picture-perfect backdrops. Looking out over the lawn, the impressive building boasts a fascinating past and has been used as everything from a hunting lodge and a field hospital to an army staff college and coaching inn.

A destination hotspot for weddings, you can marry outside in the garden’s oak-beamed Sylvan Pavilion or in the hotel’s Beaulieu Suite, joined by 140 loved ones. Set back from the main hotel, with its own entrance and facilities, you can host your whole day here in private. The suite includes the refurbished Beaulieu Room and two additional spaces, the Hamble, with its own bar and dancefloor, and the Avon, an additional seating area. There’s access to three outdoor terrace areas as well, including the hotel gardens, and come the evening you can party the night away with up to 220 family and friends.
