I love you to the moon and back. I adore the look of love here between Nicole and Kyle on their wedding day at Trebah Gardens in Falmouth. For me, this shot of her in her white bridal wellies paddling in the sea, taken by photographer Tracey Warbey, sums up weddings in Cornwall. See more on page 39. This beautiful bouquet incorporating sunflowers was created by expert florist Flowers from Bruallen for the real wedding of Laura and Sam at Cornish Tipi Weddings in St Kew. Their bright and beautiful day was caught on camera by the talented Checkered Photography and all is revealed on page 33. I’ll be enjoying the latest offering from Salcombe Distillery this Easter, the Rosé Sante Marie gin - turn to page nine to read more.
