October/November 2018 |
| |
Phew! What a scorcher summer 2018 was, with recording-breaking temperatures and endless sunny rain-free days. Not your typical English weather, but a dream for all the happy couples who tied the knot this year under cloudless blue skies. We’ve loved seeing all the amazing photos of your glorious beach weddings, summer wedfests and al fresco celebrations across the region. So much so, that we now have not two, but three real weddings every issue, full of local suppliers to inspire you. Turn to page 37 for the first of this issue’s trilogy and don’t forget to get in touch for your chance to be featured in the magazine, simply visit the website youreastanglian.wedding and click on Get Involved.
Personally, although I love soaking up the sun, autumn with all its ‘mists and mellow fruitfulness’ is my favourite season. It’s a wonderfully evocative time of year, perfect for taking time out from the wedding planning to enjoy the great outdoors before the bleak winter weather kicks in.
There’s rich pickings to be had too for those on the hunt for the big-day décor. East Anglia is blessed with a wealth of wonderful countryside and forests, so why not grab your partner, pull on your wellies and head out for a forage? Be inspired by the russet hues of falling leaves and jewel-like seasonal berries. Make the most of nature’s bounty – conkers, acorns, twigs, brambles and feathers for a wealth of material.
Think ornamental gourds in different colours and sizes, pumpkins and richly coloured autumn blooms like dahlias and chrysanthemums for your floral arrangements. For a cornucopia of ideas don’t miss our moodboard of autumnal colours on page 61 with more seasonal inspiraton on page 69.
Happy reading! |
