September/October 2021

 
What a difference a few weeks make! The world of weddings has gone from nought to sixty since restrictions have been lifted. The floodgates have opened and suppliers up and down the region are busier than ever with all the pent-up demand and postponed weddings. Not even a global pandemic has stopped couples planning their big day, some for the third or fourth time! Others have tied the knot regardless, downsizing their guest lists and forgoing many of the things we take for granted like packing out the dancefloor, group hugs and partying the night away. Intimate weddings have proved to be just as beautiful and meaningful though, bringing many of the most important things into sharper focus, like spending quality time with our nearest and dearest and savouring the moment. With just 13 people at their nature-inspired wedding Lucy and Toby’s celebration was a real triumph and you can read all about it from page 35.

Packed with all the regular features, we’ve got your whole day covered from the hen party (page 85) to the dress shopping (page 69), local venues, expert advice and more. And when your day comes, don’t forget to get in touch afterwards for the chance to share it with our readers. Just click on the link to get involved www.yourhampshiredorset.wedding/get-involved-real-wedding

Happy planning!

Spinnaker Tower

The Spinnaker Tower takes weddings to whole new heights. Set by the water’s edge with breathtaking views out across Portsmouth, the Solent and beyond, the landmark venue is an icon for the south coast. The 170-metre-high viewing tower is shaped like a spinnaker sail to reflect its maritime location in Portsmouth Harbour and when it’s lit up at night it can be seen from miles around.

You can tie the knot on the middle viewing platform, 105 metres above the ground with up to 70 people. With floor-to-ceiling glass windows looking out across the water, the simple, neutral décor complements the stunning setting.

Celebrate afterwards on the main view deck, which can accommodate up to 100 guests for a sit-down wedding breakfast, with tables set up around the edge of the stunning glass floor. Evening receptions for up to 200 loved ones are held in the ground level Waterfront Cafe and Bar, which boasts a wrap-around outdoor terrace and uninterrupted views across the harbour.
