September/October 2021

 
When my wedding photographer asked me what moments I’d love to capture on our big day, I must admit I was a bit overwhelmed. There’s so much about weddings that I adore that it’s hard to break down and put into a list. To help, I took inspiration from all the lovely real weddings I’ve seen over the years and my favourite moments, such as the vows and seeing your partner for the first time. After such a strange year for all of us, it’s nice to finally think about something positive and talk to wonderful suppliers who, like us, are happy that nuptials are getting back to normal. I’m so excited for the flurry of weddings and to see all your pictures and share the happy moments with you all.

To celebrate, we’ve put together a showstopping issue that’s full of inspiration. We have three real weddings, three styled shoots, the latest styling trends and a must-see planning guide. What’s more, our fashion section is full of fabulous fairytale-inspired dresses.

If you’d like to be featured, get in touch via our website or email me at melissab@kdmediapublishing.com
