June/July 2018 |
|
The sun shone, the crowds cheered and the country was awash with red, white and blue. Harry and Meghan, now the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, tied the knot ending months of speculation about the dress and all the details of their big day.
Personally, I loved the elegant grace of Meghan’s no-frills Givenchy gown by British designer Clare Waight Keller. Meghan looked effortlessly gorgeous and relaxed, Harry seemed suitably awestruck and, all in all, I thought the whole look perfectly suited the chilled, natural style of this very modern couple.
You don’t have to be royalty though to achieve the same effect; your wedding should reflect you as a couple, your lives and loves, whether it’s a small intimate affair or lavish celebration. With summer finally here and the wedding season in full flow, we’re here to help with ideas and inspiration to create your day, your way.
This issue is packed with ideas to celebrate the season with everything from summer fashion and beauty tips to expert advice for festival-style weddings.
Once you’ve decided on the time and the place, thoughts can turn to the details that make the day your own – the theme, colour scheme, décor and personal touches. To help get you started, flip to page 55 for a trio of moodboards full of stunning ideas from local experts. | |

If you’re on the hunt for a quintessential English country house setting for your big day, Anstey Hall ticks all the boxes. The family owned Grade I listed venue, oozes historic charm, with glorious grounds and a wealth of fabulous photo opportunities.
You can have the whole place to yourself for your big day or enjoy a weekend-long celebration and make the most of the stunning spaces including the library, morning room, Venetian ballroom and billiards room.
Less than two miles from the bustling city, the venue is conveniently situated yet still retains all its rural character. The hall’s imposing frontage provides a wow-factor backdrop at any time of year and in the summer the 10 acres of gardens and terrace really come into their own; perfect for al fresco drinks and canapés.
The three licensed ceremony rooms can cater for everything from cosy intimate gatherings to grander affairs. The ballroom can host up to 120 guests to watch you say ‘I do’ and 90 for a sit-down wedding breakfast. For more lavish affairs, the heated marquee is big enough for as many as 200 family and friends.
