Editor’s letter W
hether your very own special day is just around the corner or you’ve got a year or so to plan, you’ve come to the right place. In this month’s issue of Love Our Wedding, we’ve got over 100 pages of dresses and inspiration to help you along the way, starting with a guide to dresses whatever season you’re tying the knot! Flick to page 20 to see more. If you’re anything like us, you’re still loved up after the Royal Wedding (and a bit jealous of Amal Clooney’s dress)! Thinking about having a yellow theme, yourself? We’ve got a whole spread of props to help (p68). We’ve also got some left-field, alternative gowns that will amaze (p43), a Catherine Deane dress competition (p49) and three wonderful real life wedding stories (p72). Talking of which, if you want to have your own wedding featured, just drop JADE PEPPERELL me a line at Editor jade@meanttobemedia.com!

My favourite picks this month! 1. This angel bracelet from
Yarwood-White certainly leaped out and caught my eye 2. Your bridemaids will look amazing in this peachy/ champagne number from Romantica of Devon 3. This elegant creation from Rosalind Miller Cakes would go perfectly with a sunshine yellow themed day! (See p68 for more) 4. Not a fan of high-high heels? These cute kittens by Emmy London are ideal! 5. The gowns in the Special Day European Collection are so chic, smart and drop-dead gorgeous

METHOD Cook the potatoes in a saucepan of lightly salted boiling water for 12-15 minutes or until just tender. Drain well and leave to cool. Halve lengthways and put into a large bowl. Meanwhile, put the eggs into a small pan and cover with water. Bring to the boil, reduce to a simmer and cook the eggs to your liking (7-8 minutes for just hard-boiled).

Roughly chop the eggs and add to the salad then toss the ingredients together and tip everything into a picnic box. Whisk all the dressing ingredients together and put into a screwtop jar. Chill the salad and dressing until you’re ready for your picnic. Drizzle the dressing over the salad to serve. * Pregnant women, the elderly, babies and toddlers are advised to choose eggs showing the British Lion stamp if eating raw or partially cooked eggs.

Claire & Chris A WHITE WEDDING IN CHARMING ESSEX
Real bride Claire tells all about her big day in Leez Priory, a wonderful 16th century manor How did Chris propose? “Chris proposed in Venice. On the way there he wore a man-bag and I could see the shape of the ring box in it! The proposal itself was very romantic – he got down on one knee in a gondola.” What dress did you wear? “I wore a Justin Alexander mermaid lace dress with an open back. My something 72 ♥ L OV E O U R W E D D I N G ♥ J U L Y 2 0 1 8
borrowed was my maid of honour’s veil, and I wore Christian Louboutin satin peep toes. I changed into flip flops later on, though!” And the accessories? “I wore a simple diamanté bracelet from Mikey. I also gave the same design to all of my bridesmaids and my
mum as a gift – I wanted us all to match.” What did Chris wear? “Chris wore black trousers and a white jacket with a bow tie. I was worried he’d look odd when he told me what he was planning to wear, but fair play to him – he proved me wrong! He looked brilliant
and very ‘James Bond’! His suit was tailored from Scabal, Savile Row. He also wore a Rolex watch.” Where did you get your bridesmaids’ dresses? “I had five bridesmaids and their dresses came from LightInTheBox. They were white strapless satin floor-

length corseted dresses. We all chose the dresses together. I wanted them to feel comfortable and look stunning… And they did!” What was the first step in planning your wedding? “The first thing we booked was the venue. Leez is such
a beautiful venue and the staff are so welcoming. Chris loved it as soon as we drove in – it’s a special place that really does take your breath away, at any time of year.” What’s your top tip? “For a bride, in a venue like this, definitely try to stay in

the cottage the night before. Not only did we have great fun, it was nice waking up on the morning not needing to rush to get to the venue. Also, if budget allows, go for a videographer. There were so many bits of the day that I didn’t get to see, but thanks to the video, I now can.”
What was the highlight of your day? “There was a wonderful photo of me drying Chris’s tears. He’s a bit bashful about it now, but when he first saw me, his bottom lip was going and everything, bless him. So I ran up the aisle to help him out!”

It had sparkly sequins, 80 ♥ L OV E O U R W E D D I N G ♥ J U L Y 2 0 1 8

very hen party is different. Some will want to go the whole hog and have plenty of booze, debauchery and nudity, whereas others will prefer to go slightly tamer, choosing to keep their celebrations more refined. And we should know – we’ve been on a fair few in our time! We appreciate, however, that it can be hard to know which route to go down in the scenario when you have invited many people. How do you appease everyone in your party when there’s your more serene mum, aunt or sister to consider, as well as your enthusiastic work colleagues? Hen party specialists, Chillisauce, have picked 10 party ideas located in the UK that will hopefully keep every single person happy and having fun. They range from calm and sophisticated to active and creative. Maybe you’ll pick something familiar, or perhaps you’ll push the boat out and opt for something out of your comfort zone in which you accomplish a team task or learn a new skill!
Embrace your creativity
Life drawing class Fancy yourself an artist? Why not give sketching a handsome nude male model a go? He will strip off and pose just for you and your group. It’s something none of you are going to forget any time soon – especially thanks to the drawings you take home! You can take it easy with a few drinks throughout the class and a tutor will be on hand to offer professional tips and tricks to make your drawing something you’d be proud to hang on the wall. This could be a great idea for something that meets two sets of personalities half-way – offering a glimpse of male flesh, but it’s arty and creative at the same time!

Reach for the skies Trampolining Unleash the inner child within and bounce away any wedding niggles you might have with the rest of your hens. There are plenty of trampoline centres up and down the country that you can book for private events and they are the perfect way to say goodbye to single life forever. If you’d rather experience a bounce in a bizarre location, you can head to Bounce Below in Wales and experience trampolining in a cave!

Hit the spot Archery session Why not learn a brand new, rather cool skill on your hen do? There are hundreds of locations to practice archery at in the UK and many of them will accept a group of hens. The benefits of such an awesome activity include increased strength, fitness and looking like you were at a movie set in the photographs! If you have an active group who enjoy the competition, you could always try combat archery where you’ll face off against each other. Find archery hen dos here: chillisauce.com/hen/doarchery
Be pampered like a princess Enjoy a group spa day Spa days will forever and always be a favourite of hen dos across the country because they are the perfect opportunity for the whole group to unwind and be pampered while enjoying a glass or two of bubbly. You can find spas up and down the country, but the historical city of Bath have some beautiful thermal spas for you to experience and enjoy.

Cook up a storm Cookery class We all love to eat, but why not get your hens together and learn some amazing cookery skills, tips and tricks from professional chefs as a big group activity? Most of these classes – found up and down the country – are interactive and they let you be as creative as possible with your flavours. You can choose from a variety of different cuisines, so every single hen should be content with this choice. You also get to sample what you make – a tasty situation where everyone wins!

Get physical An active hike Here’s an option for the adrenaline junkie hens out there: instead of taking it easy in a spa or going to a local bar, why not explore the rugged coastline of the UK by scrambling over the rocks, swimming through caves and leaping into the water? Yes, it might be pushing you out of your comfort zone, but you might look back on this and be proud of what you’ve accomplished! It’s important to realise early on in your planning of the hen party that this activity isn’t for everyone, so you’ll need to check with all of the guests beforehand to make sure they are all prepared for this. However, if you do decide to go for this physical option, it will certainly be a hen do to remember! Find coasteering hen dos here: chillisauce.com/hen/ do-coasteering
Learn to dance Dance lessons Learning how to dance for your wedding can be exhausting and stressful. However, a fun street, musical or salsa dance class for you and your friends can be an amazing and hilarious experience. You’ll get to work with a professional choreographer and learn a routine that you and your friends could even whip out at future parties! You could even make the whole event sexier and make it a pole dancing class. This raunchy addition will give you and your group plenty of time to giggle, while at the same time, it will be a good test your core strength.

Try a trapeze Join the circus If there are any hens or bridesto-be out there who always fancied the idea of running away to join a circus, then this idea could be the one for you! Become a trapeze artist for a day and learn the highflying tricks with your best friends. This is a great way to bond with your hens as well as learning to truly live in the moment.
Relax at a pop-up cinema Catch a movie For those residing in the city, it’s always worth keeping an eye out for pop-up cinemas –these are great fun. You could lie back on the comfy chairs on a rooftop in London or set up a picnic in a field, admiring the stunning views while watching your favourite movie with your best friends. If you can get your hands on a projector and white screen, you might even be able to set this up yourself and have yourself your own personalised movie marathon!
Party bus tour All aboard! There’s nothing wrong with opting to play it safe and getting yourself a party bus. Not only will it appease almost every single hen out there, but it’ll provide many memories, allow you to see more of the city (that you’ve hired the bus in) and, of course, it will give you the chance to drink lots without a designated driver!

Coachman’s House A 19th century coach house with a modern twist, in the heart of the Lake District WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT COACHMAN’S HOUSE? The unique layout of Coachman’s House makes perfect accommodation for four adults. Two king bedrooms, two bathrooms and two lounges means you will find plenty of space to spread out, share time together or relax alone in this honeymoon or minimoon retreat. We appreciated the great attention to detail that ensures the house is as comfortable as it is functional and beautiful. Every aspect is luxuriously stylish, from the Bose music system and The White Company crockery in the kitchen, through to the underfloor heating throughout the ground floor and the roll top bath in the master bedroom. There’s very much a modern interior in this lovingly restored 19th century coach house. There’s a sheltered terraced garden, surrounded by mature woodland, which benefits from views of The Fells. It’s a private setting, perfect for breakfast or an evening summer barbecue. We were also provided with the essentials to help us settle in – fresh milk, bread, butter, eggs and orange juice for breakfast, a bottle of Prosecco, as well as luxury toiletries from Bath House and fresh flowers in every room. WHAT CAN YOU DO THERE? Coachman’s House is ideally located
for those that love walking. Nestled in the village of Coniston in the heart of The Lake District, it’s easy to access all areas of the lakes (with a car, of course), but it’s also got some fantastic walks mere minutes from the door. At the house there are Ordnance Survey maps covering the whole of The Lake District and various walking guides that are most helpful. We recommend a casual stroll through the village and down to Coniston Lake (a 10-15 minute walk from the house), where you can enjoy some refreshments at the Bluebird Café, located right on the lake. ARE THERE ANY NEARBY ACTIVITIES WE CAN DO? You’ll be surrounded by a wealth of picturesque towns to visit when staying at Coachman’s House. You can walk to various pubs and restaurants in the village of Coniston (with country pub The Black Bull being our favourite), but if you’re looking to travel a little further afield, we’d recommend Chesters By The River, a stylish café and shop right on the River Brathay, just a short five-mile drive away. The towns of Ambleside and Windermere have plenty of shops and restaurants, too.
If, however, you fancy something a little more activity-based, there are a plethora of options – including nearby hot air balloon rides, mountain biking, horse riding and climbing. WHAT IS THE PRICE RANGE? Prices start from £490 for a weekend stay at Coachman’s House. • 7 nights | Monday to Monday or Friday to Friday. • 4 nights | Monday to Friday • 3 nights | Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Book your stay at Coachman’s House today online at coachmanshouse.co.uk, or call Angela Gatland on 07766 990055. All photography by Nina Kathryn Claridge Photography, ninaclaridge.com
