September/October 2018 |

I have to admit, I’m not a fan of festivals. Having camped only once in my life, I vowed never to do it again! But I do love a festival-style wedding – complete with plush portaloos and a king-size bed booked for me in a nearby luxury hotel to rest my weary dancing feet at the end of the night! In fact, this is my favourite style of wedding, either held in a yurt or tipi with hay bales as seating for guests, a wooden gin bar (serving pink gin, of course!) and a live band entertaining friends and family. This is the reason I love editing this magazine so much, because both Devon and Cornwall are so well equipped for this kind of celebration. Why not create a chill-out area or indoor bar for autumnal and wintery weddings by adding smaller tents to a tipi or marquee? Or, serve a picnic or ice lollies at summer nuptials? This has been the inspiration behind my moodboard of shopping buys this month. Also in this issue, we have fabulous fashion, beauty tips from regional experts including the team at Devon Bridal Hair, romantic real-life weddings, hot honeymoon destinations, venues and plenty more.
Until next issue… |
