Essex is having a heatwave! It’s hot, hot, hot and we can’t get enough of the gorgeous wedding pics we’ve been sent recently! Guests are pulling it out of the bag with light, linen numbers; bridesmaids are looking on point in stunning gowns all shades of the rainbow; and brides, what can I say, I may have seen some of the most exquisite designs to date. Do keep in touch and submit your wedding to An Essex Wedding magazine to be featured. It’s super simple, visit: www.anessex.wedding/get-involved This issue, we’ve compiled our top tips for those planning an outdoor wedding. Cute ideas from stylish hydration stations to fun outdoor games, to handing out personalised fans as favours – check it out! We’ve also taken a quirky look at floral choices and have asked – what flower choice suits you depending on your star sign? I’m a Sagittarius and it says: ‘Lovable Sagittarius feels most connected to popular carnations. So versatile, pretty and uncomplicated’. I totally agree, there’s so many fluffy stunning variations – and so often these blooms get such a bad reputation as just being petrol station flowers – rubbish! It’s all a bit of fun so turn to page 47 to find out what your star signs says! As ever, we have real weddings, styled shoots and all the latest wedding news around Essex, so grab a cool drink and enjoy the issue! Happy planning!
