An Essex Wedding - September/October 2025 (Issue 124)

This issue, we unveil our simply stunning redesign! Check out our refreshed layouts, with a full focus on you, our valued readers. It’s fun and modern and we really hope you like it! Delving straight in, I had the pleasure of chatting with childhood sweethearts, Daisy and Nick, who married at Braxted Park Estate. This venue never disappoints. Whatever your style they can adapt it for you! For Daisy and Nick, their clean aesthetic worked perfectly. Secondly, I spoke with our beautiful brides, Eleonora and Daniella, their Anglo-Italian wedding at Hedingham Castle was quite the showstopper – fashion focussed and full of colour. We also have a feature dedicated to catering. If you, like me, can’t wait to browse the menu as soon as you’re booked into a restaurant, you’ll love these pages! Plenty of tips to get your food choices spot on ahead of the big day – not forgetting the all-important bar! If that’s not enough, our fashion editor extraordinaire, Claire Ridley, has pulled out her selection of the newest on-trend fairytale inspired gowns. Works of art!
