Hello and welcome to the June/July issue of Your Herts & Beds Wedding. I am so excited to be taking over the reins as the Editor of this fantastic magazine, and I couldn’t be more delighted to be part of such a special time in your lives. Planning a wedding is a journey filled with excitement, decisions and meaningful moments, and we’re here to make that experience as enjoyable and inspiring as possible. Think of this magazine as your companion – a place to return to whenever you need a fresh idea, a little reassurance or simply a quiet moment to dream about the day ahead. There’s something undeniably magical about summer weddings. The longer days, the softer evenings and that golden light that seems to make everything glow just a little brighter all set the scene beautifully. It’s a season that invites celebration, whether that’s an outdoor ceremony or a relaxed reception that stretches late into a balmy evening. Of course, we know British weather likes to keep us on our toes, so a back-up plan is wise! In this issue, we’re turning our attention to the details that make your day truly personal – those finishing touches that tie everything together and leave a lasting impression on you and your guests. We’re so glad you’re here! Louise Prance, editor Here comes the sun Louise x Your Herts & Beds Wedding is solely owned, published and designed by Ellis Media and Events Ltd.

The couple chose a unique theme that blended Cinderella-esque elegance with a bold, tattooed biker twist. Their colour palette of purple and black may not immediately suggest a rustic barn setting, but when styled thoughtfully, it created a striking and sophisticated look. Guests were welcomed with drinks and a selection of canapés from the talented catering team at B & R Dining. This was followed by a hearty lamb dish with all the trimmings – perfect for a cosy winter celebration – before the wedding cake was served as dessert. To keep the celebrations flowing, the couple provided an open bar, along with bottles of red, white and rosé wine on each table for guests to enjoy. Get ready for inspiration-aplenty!
