Your Surrey Wedding - August/September 2025 (Issue 114)

Win a luxury minibreak in Bath Writing this issue’s editor’s letter on one of the hottest days of the year, means all I can think about is the heat! Although, I’m not moaning like a typical Brit saying it’s too hot, I was cold in Australia so for me, heat-Goldilocks, it’s just right! For summer nuptials, yes you may want the sunshine, but you don’t want the heat as it leads to all sorts of scenarios you may not have thought about: melting cakes, make-up and guests for a start! So, it’s not just wet-weather contingency plans you need to invest time in, but also humid heatwaves need a Plan A, B and C. Does the venue have shade outside? Can you create any if not? Should you provide folding fans? Are there enough refreshments to keep guests hydrated? When it comes to your outfit, can you remove a layer of the underskirt to keep cool, or change your footwear for a heeled sandal instead? Some top tips for your bridal look, carry blotting paper with you for sweaty faces, make sure you secure make-up in place with a setting spray and a handheld fan in your clutch bag could work wonders when you need a minute to cool down! Finally, if you were planning on involving your pet in your wedding day, then chat to your chaperone service about the best ways to keep them comfortable whatever the weather. Ooh is that the time, Pimms o’clock! Until next time... You’re my sunshine ISSN 1751-7095 Your Surrey Wedding is solely owned, published and designed by Ellis Media and Events Ltd.
