Hello lovely readers and welcome to another issue of Your Midlands Wedding. Think of us as your wedding godmother, ready to sprinkle a little magic to help you create the most romantic day. Whether that means sticking to tradition and keeping things beautifully classic or going outside the box with something unique, we’ll guide you every step of the way to ensure your day, most importantly, reflects your love story and personality beautifully. As we’ve survived the winter months and are no longer freezing every time we step outside, the world is beginning to wake up with spring finally here. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, the flowers are blooming and the trees are dancing in the wind. This means we can fully utilise the outdoors again while still ensuring we have a wet-weather back-up plan, because we all know what the UK weather can be like. Yes, I’m talking about those iconic umbrella shots, plus a light jacket or shawl! Take advantage of seasonal blooms, local produce and longer days, and let nature do its job with picturesque backdrops to create photos to treasure. So, grab a cuppa, get comfy and immerse yourself in the wonderful world of weddings.
