Your Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Wedding - December/January 2023/2024 (Issue 42)

Yes, it’s that magical time of the year once again when winter is upon us bringing with it the fun and festivities of Christmas followed by a new year which is a great time to begin any resolutions. I don’t know about you but 2023 passed by quickly for me, and luckily it has been a wonderful one. I’m very blessed to be a proud auntie to my little nephew, Malachi who was born last Christmas – the best present ever! I’ve also been lucky enough to experience some memorable trips and experiences throughout the summer months including snorkelling in Mauritius; yoga in Turkey; a speedboat trip around the Greek islands and sightseeing in Miami and New Orleans. To celebrate the start of a new year, I’ve compiled a bumper issue for you to enjoy. There’s everything from themed real weddings and styled shoots to snow-capped venues, perfect for cosy winter weddings. Don’t miss the latest news, offers, fashion, beauty and honeymoon ideas to kick-start January! For those of you getting married soon, I wish you many congratulations and for those not taking the plunge until later in 2024, I’ll see you next issue. Happy New Year!
