It would be hard for me to not mention the dreaded c-word, however, I admire how everyone, particularly in our wedding industry, no matter how badly they’re affected, has come together to support one another. The tide will start turning, and we can all begin to re-plan postponed weddings, re-book honeymoons and get back to our wonderful world of “I dos” – supporting local couples and businesses in finding their feet again. In this issue we offer up some inspiration for your big days at the end of this year and beyond. So, turn to page 32 to find the start of our real weddings section. We have no less that four of our wonderful readers’ love stories to share with you this issue, so dive in and enjoy. Food is a matter always sure to bring a smile to my face, so I hope it will do the same for you from page 57, where we talk seasonal dishes with Gastro Catering. Finally, if the lockdown has given you an even deeper appreciation for the great outdoors, head over to page 65 where our experts share their top tips on planning your very own al fresco celebration. I hope you’ll find something to amongst these pages to bring you some cheer.
