Summer loving

Summer is here, and with it you’re spoilt for choice for your floral décor and bouquets! Make an impact with big and blousy hydrangeas; go alternative with funky proteas; or blow them away with handpicked garden roses in the brightests pinks or totally ontrend toffee hues. I have compiled three pages of floral inspo to help you decide what you may want on your big day!

My favourite part of each issue is interviewing our local couples who have recenlty said those special words, ‘I do’. This issue, meet Jody and Danielle who opted for a magical, Disney themed day. For Amber and Ricky, the stunning Greenwoods Hotel & Spa was the venue of choice; and for the Sherlock-Burke’s Gosfield Hall was the backdrop of dreams for their sparkly, festive affair. Each completely one-of-a-kind to them - and totally perfect.

If you’ve recently tied the knot and would like to see your wedding day gracing the pages of An Essex Wedding, please get in touch via our website www.anessex.wedding/get-involved-real-wedding or ping me an email! I can’t wait to hear from you!
