Anyone who knows me well can tell you that one of my most treasured possessions is my Fiat 500 car and my favourite colour is pink. So when this picture of a vintage Fiat 500 in baby pink, lovingly named Rosie and available to hire from Lil & Blue Vintage Fiat 500 Hire based in Wokingham landed in my inbox, I was in love! See more on page 61!

These Bride and Wifey weekend bags are a must for any mini-moon! All is revealed on page 69.

I was lucky enough to be invited along to Coppa Club property The Great House in Sonning. It’s not only a picturesque riverside wedding venue but also the ideal retreat for a mini-moon in the region. Don’t miss my review on page 95.

Check out this stunning shot by local wedding photographer Katie Amanda in our big-day photography feature on page 47. She captured it at the real wedding of Beckie and Huw who we will be featuring in our next April/May issue.

The magnificent Hedsor House in Buckinghamshire provided the backdrop for Emma and Will’s glamorous big day. See it in all its glory on page 28.

Katie Amanda also documented the real wedding of Hannah and Jordon this issue on page 40. I adore this white bicycle used in the background as a prop – it has inspired me to get back on my pink bike this spring!

How beautiful do Alice and Nick look here on their wedding day in the grounds of Tythe in Oxfordshire? Check out their story on page 35.
