It feels like it’s been a long time coming doesn’t it? As much as I’m very much a winter bunny, I must admit that feeling a warm breeze on my face for a change has cheered me up. My friends and I have decided to compile a bucket list of activities we’d like to enjoy this summer, and plans are well underway for our very own CWM bride’s hen do. If you’re worried about what your best gals might have planned for yours, the best way is to maintain an open line of communication. Make sure you lay down perimeters and make it abundantly clear well in advance if L plates, sashes and the like aren’t your thing. Olivia, Nolwenn and I sat bride Melissa down for a chat first to make sure we didn’t make any faux pas and asked her to provide us with a guest list and options for available dates. No doubt you’ll have been careful about your bridesmaid choices, they love you and know you well, so we’re sure you’re in capable hands. Relax and enjoy the break from planning everything yourself. You’ll find this, our summer issue, brimming with plenty of inspiration and advice as always. We take a look into planning an outdoor wedding. With the new law surrounding saying “I do” al fresco, it’s certainly something many more of you may be considering. We’re also delighted to present to you our A-Z guide to wedding catering, packed with delicous ideas. After all, happy tummies = happy guests! Still hungry for more wedspiration?

Completely timeless and oh-so chic it’s one to look out for. Chloe and Shannon were less influenced by trends when they chose their palette, but more so by Shannon’s heritage. Her family are from the Emerald Isle, so green was a must! PRETTY PALETTES EDITOR’S LETTER 7
