Christmas cheer
Ilove this time of year, not only because I am a magpie who loves anything that sparkles, but because it’s an opportunity for me to create a magazine full of seasonal splendour! If you’re putting the finishing touches to a micro wedding this winter then our hot topic feature offers plenty of tips. For those planning a larger affair next Christmas then our venue section is a must-read. It’s always fun for me to compile our end-of-year issue so I asked some of my favourite wedding photographers in both regions to send me their favourite wintry real weddings crammed full of fab festive ideas - you’ll love the outcome!
There’s also glittery accessories, fairytale wedding dresses, fashionable groomswear and big-day beauty, along with much more, so I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did compiling it, and I’ll see you next year.
Until then... Claire x
