WEDDINGS
Set your wedding free IT’S THE BIGGEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE, SO FLOUT CONVENTION AND CREATE A STUNNING WEDDING TO REMEMBER. ack in the day, your only wedding venue options were church or registry office and the reception tended to take place at your local pub or working men’s club. But in recent years brides and grooms have become much more imaginative. Every couple has different needs and tastes when it comes to planning their big day and this year’s trends are sure to suit everyone, whether you are looking for an outdoor, indoor, traditional or modern setting. If you are baffled about where to even begin planning your wedding, read on for some inspiration and to find out what types of venues are on trend for 2017.
B
THE BEACH
The outdoors
The beach trend is by no means a new concept, but with flights to European holiday destinations cheaper and easier to book than ever (thank the internet gods), sunny weddings by the coast are much more plausible than they used to be. And the best part? You are already on your honeymoon too. Find a hotel with a honeymoon suite and reception space with a beautiful white beach nearby, and you will have the perfect package. If you looking for a simple yet stunning setting, with near guaranteed sunshine, a beach wedding is most certainly for you. If you are piecing together your own beach wedding, The Knot has plenty of handy advice at www.theknot.com/beach-weddings
Getting married in the great outdoors can be an amazing experience, as long as you prepare for the variable British weather, of course. From woodlands to open fields, beautiful natural views can mean you don’t need much in the way of decorations. However, you may want an indoor area such as a marquee or building to have your reception in if the weather does change. Many people are also coupling this kind of setting with a boutique festival theme. UK law previously stated that you could not marry outside, in a tent, marquee or any other temporary structure. However, as of 2015, outdoor weddings are now allowed provided the venue obtain an additional licence. From garden to mountain weddings, find all the ideas and advice you will need for outdoor weddings at www.theknot.com/outdoor-weddings
The industrial space An old factory or warehouse may sound far from your fairy tale wedding venue, but an increasing number of couples are falling in love with disused industrial spaces because they offer high ceilings, plenty of open space to play with and ever-so-on-trend exposed brick work. Whether you’d like to go rustic with Image: Fiona Oliver Photography fairy lights, wildflowers and jam jar candles, or more sophisticated in style, with dressed tables and chairs, an industrial space makes for a brilliant blank canvas. What’s more, these types of venues tend to be conveniently located in the city centre, making them easy for guests to get to. If you are looking for an industrial style wedding, check out an inspirational list of Yorkshire venues at www.yorkshirerosebrides.com/2017/06/11/ seven-industrial-yorkshire-wedding-venues-love

WEDDINGS
THE HOTEL
The barn
On the subject of hotels, in recent years, this venue has really stepped up its game. Previously, simply a place to go back to for drinks and photos in their lush gardens, many hotels offer wedding packages as a standard now. Hotels in the countryside with historic architecture provide a picturesque backdrop for your ceremony and the beauty of it is that while they are switching your room around for the reception, there is sure to be a stunning foyer and classy bar to mingle in. If you are looking for a smart and sophisticated setting, few places get it spot on like a grand hotel, which often have their own in-house wedding planners. Hand Picked Hotels do exactly what they say on the tin and list hundreds of the best hotels for weddings around the UK. Find out more at www.handpickedhotels.co.uk/weddings
Barns continue to be a popular option, which suit the equally popular rustic and shabby chic wedding looks – get those jam jars, worn wooden chairs and fairy lights at the ready. These are usually based on working farms, but there are also disused barns that have been bought and renovated by party organisers who put the venue up for hire. If this is the case, they are also very likely to do a lot of the setting up and wedding planning for you. Again this is a great venue that can be transformed from a hall for your ceremony, to a dancefloor and banqueting area. And as these venues tend to be away from residential areas, you can make a bit of noise and party til the early hours. Get hitched in a rustic barn or under a thatched gazebo surrounded by the north Yorkshire moors at Ox Pasture Hall. To find out more visit www.oxpasturehallhotel.com/weddings/barn-wedding

The treehouse Combining two themes we have already touched upon, a treehouse offers the simple and rustic charm of the barn with the natural charm of the forest. A treehouse often being a childhood dream, those young at heart will jump at the chance to perform their nuptials here. Thought of as of being quite unconventional in the past, this option is becoming a lot more widely considered. What is more, a gorgeous forest will make a fantastic backdrop for photos – let’s just hope none of your wedding guests are afraid of heights. The Lodge in Scotland is a great place to start and it helps that our neighbouring country has looser laws when it comes to outdoor weddings. Find out more at www.thelodge-scotland.com/weddings @PulseRMC
The lounge area At the other end of the scale, more couples are looking into comfy, home-like wedding venues, with a relaxed party atmosphere. This kind of venue can be found almost anywhere. Some are upstairs spaces in bars, which resemble living rooms, whilst some hotels offer smaller, cosier rooms as well as their typically bigger more luxurious offerings. Function rooms in fashionable pubs with big armchairs and booths are a great option, as they tend to have their own bar area so you won’t have to fight strangers to get served. There are also countless furniture rental firms around the country, both retro and modern. So you can provide the right tables and chairs to suit your style. If you are looking for smaller wedding venues, there are all kinds to choose from at www.hitched.co.uk/small-hotelwedding-venues

Sue Robinson of Clinica Aesthetics set up her own practice in 2014. Initially, she focused on the most popular treatments, however, by getting to know her patients and their concerns, and accessing as much training as possible, she keeps on top of medical developments and makes sure her treatments are at the cutting edge of medical aesthetic practice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having turned 57 this year, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not aiming for world domination, but I love what I do and wish Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d taken the plunge years ago.

Sue Robinson is the owner of Clinica Aesthetics, a medical aesthetic clinic offering a range of injectables, peels and other nonsurgical cosmetic procedures. Her aim is to make clients look and feel their best without major surgery, and one of the things she values most is the relationships she builds. Clients come to her for a free consultation, discussion about their concerns and detailed skin analysis, in order to assess the best treatment options. As a nurse independent prescriber, Sue can write and order prescriptions â&#x20AC;&#x201C; this is different to many other practitioners and nurses who require patients to visit a doctor/NIP.

The owner of a historic 500-year-old hall, which is set to become six stunning homes, is searching for an outstanding builder or developer to acquire the hall to start exciting work outlined in Planning Consent and Listed Building Consent awarded by Sheffield City Council for the site at Old Hall, Brightholmlee. The owners have worked tirelessly with a locally wellrespected Heritage Architect, John Paul Walker of Walker Cunningham, Sheffield City Council Planning Department, Conservation Officers and Historic England to salvage a future for the historic Grade II listed homestead. The site is now set to become a development of six beautiful homes, which carry the hallmark of character only a truly historic building can provide, coupled with modern comforts such as en-suite wetrooms, underfloor heating systems, thermal double glazing, high speed Wi-Fi and bespoke kitchens and bathrooms. Residents will each have a dedicated allotment in the fouracre paddocks. Located adjacent to the farm, it is envisaged that a thriving community will once again be seen in the sleepy hamlet of Brightholmlee. The owner is appealing to prestigious building companies or developers to contact them to progress this site. All enquiries can be directed to William H Brown, Bannercross, Sheffield.
Scott and Karen outside the new Café Gen
Quirky new cafe parks up at Fox Valley
Fox Valley has welcomed a brand new business venture this month – a beautiful Citroen van, which has been transformed into a fully-fitted mobile café. The new Café Gen is the little sister of Café Generation in Penistone and can be found next door to Full Gas Bikes in a new landscaped seating area. The café brings something completely different to the centre with a fantastic range of healthy snacks and smoothies and a menu which has been designed with the cyclist in mind. This includes healthy breakfasts, lunches, snacks and smoothies, as well as a selection of jacket potatoes, nachos and flatbreads. Café Gen is open from 9.30am to 5pm, seven days a week. Owners Karen and Scott Waddington said: “We are passionate about wholesome and healthy food and we’re definitely reflecting that in our menu. The response has already been great and we’ve had so many lovely comments about our unusual little café. “We’re next door to Full Gas Bikes and right in the heart of some of the region’s best-loved cycling routes, so we’re also in a good location for cyclists to refuel on their weekend ride-outs.” For more information, visit www.foxvalleysheffield.co.uk.
Weddings at Whitley Hall The Whitley Hall wedding open day on Sunday 1 October is not to be missed. Doors open at 12pm and as well as a wide variety of suppliers, the Whitley wedding team will be available to show you around our beautiful venue and answer any questions you might have.

Don’t forget their wedding brochure and wedding packages are available to download from their website at www.whitleyhall.com/ weddings.

Help is at hand WHETHER YOU NEED TO CATCH UP, KEEP UP OR GET AHEAD, NOW IS THE TIME TO CONTACT KIP McGRATH. t is a new academic year, and while end of year tests and exams may seem far away, now is the time for struggling students to get the extra help they need. Kip McGrath are specialists in Maths, English and Science tuition. One of the things that makes them different is that all of their tutors are fully-qualified teachers so have the experience and knowledge to help your child succeed. Last year, the company celebrated 40 years in business and they now have 500 education centres globally, including one in Ecclesfield. “The fast pace of school can mean that children get left behind and there is little opportunity to reinforce their learning, other than homework,” says centre director, David Kaye. “At Kip McGrath we go back over those areas that your child is unsure of. We aim to identify those missing bricks and fill those gaps in their knowledge.” The three cornerstones of Kip McGrath’s ethos are confidence, independence and individualised learning.
I
Kip McGrath recognise that every student is different and learns things in their own way. That’s why their tutors provide individualised learning, using a successful system backed by national and global teaching networks. Independence is also key because when it comes down to it, it is the child alone who must sit that exam. And finally, confidence comes from reinforcing the things they have learned and getting them right. Indeed, it is never too early to get extra tuition and Kip McGrath teach students from age six, right up to GCSE level. If you have a young child and would like them to start on the right track, ask for one of Kip McGrath’s free assessments. So whatever your child’s age and whether they need to catch up, keep up or get ahead, now is the time to contact Kip McGrath.

LOOKING BACK
William Blazey and Minnie Jepson wedding, 1924
The wedding of Sam Ashworth and Elsie Matthews, 1910
Marital bliss
HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED... TAKE A LOOK AT THESE WEDDING PICTURES FROM THE PAST – DO YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION YOU COULD SHARE WITH US? his month is our wedding issue, so we have dug out two photos that perfectly represent the changing styles of ‘the big day’ through the ages. Though smiling in photos was not the ‘done thing’ in the early 1900s, you can see a hint of a grin in some of these faces at the wedding of Sam Ashworth and Elsie Matthews. Taken from the book, Ecclesfield, Chapeltown and High Green by Mel and Joan Jones, the accompanying caption reads: “This splendid wedding party was taken by local photographer, Arnie Greaves in August 1910, and was printed from a glass negative. Elsie’s
T
parents, seen sitting on either side of the bride and groom, kept the Crown & Cushion Inn in Burncross, where this photograph was taken.” The second photo was taken of William Blazey and Minnie Jepson 14 years later, and the wedding attire has changed significantly. The caption reads: “The wedding of this Ecclesfield couple took place in September 1924. A noticeable change has occurred in the bride’s headgear. Gone are the large hats worn by Elsie Matthews. Styles had changed between the late Edwardian period and the roaring twenties. And Jessie Jepson, sitting beside the bride, definitely looks
of the 1920s.” Are you related to or have any more information about the people in these photos? If so, contact Pulse on the details below. If you have any old pictures that you would like to share, please send them, along with your name and a short description of the photograph, to Phoebe Seymour, Pulse Looking Back, 6 Broadfield Court, Broadfield Business Park, Sheffield S8 0XF or you can email them to phoebe.seymour@rmcmedia.co.uk. If you would like us to return your photographs, please include your address.
Bicycle days In our May issue, we featured some photos sent in by Sheila Needham of her cycling days in the 1940s and 1950s. After reading the feature, Tony Needham got in touch to tell us that he was in the same cycling group. “The reason I was so interested, is that I was a member of the Sheffield Phoenix in 1957 and became a longstanding member until 1968,” says Tony. “Though I was a reasonably successful member, I never got beyond a First Category member, though one or two of my colleagues got to Independent class, riding as semi-professionals in the early 1960s and 1970s. “When I started cycling with the new club in the 1980s in Minehead, we had a new National Champion who joined the club and was a former multi-champion in the South East. She rode in Holland in the 1940s and 1950s and won the National 25-Mile Time Trial several times. She’s still in the club!” Here is a photo of Tony and several other riders, in the Langsett Road Race in 1964.

Homing in on rooftop repairs FROM ROUTINE REPAIRS TO TO FULL ROOF REPLACEMENTS AND LOFT CONVERSIONS, MARTIN-BROOKS CAN HELP.
“
here’s a cracking view of Sheffield from the top of a terrace in Greystones, but I guess it’s not exactly what we’re there to look at.” Enjoying this unique vista is just one of the perks of Andrew Wheadon’s job. The estimator at local roofing specialists, MartinBrooks, is the first point of contact for homeowners who find themselves with a telltale leak or suspicious looking slate. “The main reason for roof damage is age. Inclement weather might bring the issue to a head, but nail fixings and mortar deteriorate over time and of course, problems can be exacerbated by poor installation,” says Andrew. Martin-Brooks carries out all types of roofing work on homes across the region and the Darnall-based firm is seeing enquiries about domestic repairs grow rapidly. In fact, they are up 11 per cent on last year and typically comprise small jobs that can be completed in hours. The top five most common roof problems afflicting our homes are: 1 Slipped slates or tiles 2 Blocked gutters 3 Leaks around chimney stacks 4 Mortar deteriorating under ridge tiles 5 Storm damage “With the exception of chimneys and ridges, which normally require scaffolding, most basic repairs can be undertaken safely from a ladder, keeping costs to a minimum. We have good stocks of materials, so there’s no delay in re-fixing or replacing slipped slates and the size of our team means we can address problems promptly, limiting the damage caused by leaks.” Recent jobs include an urgent slate repair in Woodseats and replacing ridge tiles in Wincobank. The view of Sheffield Andrew was enjoying in Greystones was from a loft conversion on a terraced house. Martin-Brooks re-roofed the property in natural Spanish slate, constructing dormer
T
windows and fitting steel beams and roof timbers, in accordance with the structural engineer’s design and building regulations. The owner is now enjoying his rooftop panorama from a beautiful new bedroom. Another full re-roof has just taken place on a larger property in Millhouses. Old concrete tiles were removed, allowing high performance insulation to be installed, followed by Sandtoft Calderdale tiles, a cost-effective equivalent of the former covering. This project was completed under the Competent Roofer scheme, enabling MartinBrooks to self-certify work that needs building regulation approval. A certificate of compliance is issued, without the need for a council inspection, saving the homeowner money and a significant amount of time. “We want clients to feel reassured that we are professional and our work is of the highest quality. We’re visiting your home and we respect that,” adds Andrew. For more information about the range of domestic roofing services offered by Martin-Brooks, telephone 0114 244 7720 or visit www.martin-brooks.co.uk and complete the online enquiry form.
