August/September 2018
 
I’m all about the floral prints, not a day goes by where my attire isn’t flower related – I just can’t get enough! When everyone was questioning which designer the new Duchess of Sussex would be wearing – did anyone guess Givenchy? No, we didn’t either, but didn’t she look gorgeous? I was keen to know whether there was going to be peonies, camellias, roses, sweet Williams or the ever traditional sprig of myrtle included in the bridal bouquet and I’m not going to lie to you, I teared up a little as the nation was told Harry had picked some blooms from their garden in Kensington Palace himself – Meghan’s a lucky lady. Here at Your West Midlands Wedding HQ we want to wish the newlyweds the happiest of lives together.

From colour charts to styling, honeymoons to fashion, we’re here to guide you along the way in your own wedding journey. This issue’s fashion editor Claire showcases a plethora of gorgeous gowns from the industry’s emerging designers on page 73. Or, turn to page 79 if you want to see the latest must-have colour accessories.

Finally, you might notice a few changes in this issue, but the most exciting of all is that going forward each and every one of our magazines will feature three inspirational local real weddings, which you can find on pages 35, 42 and 49 respectively.

The Bank House Hotel, Spa and Golf Course

The Bank House is located in the rural Worcestershire village of Bransford, and offers stunning views of the Malvern Hills. The venue’s interior is the perfect fusion of traditional and contemporary design. Boasting original features of the 17th-century building such as exposed beams and inglenook fireplaces, which sit side by side with dramatic crystal chandeliers and contemporary artwork.

The indulgent Malvern View Spa boasts first-class facilities including a deluxe thermal suite, 10-metre indoor swimming pool and state-of-the-art fitness studio. Providing decadent Temple Spa treatments as well as bride-to-be spa days, pamper parties and breaks – perfect for pre- or post-wedding relaxation.

Often referred to as The Bank House’s Grand Ballroom, the Elgar Suite is a stand-alone facility with private garden and has capacity for 400 ceremony guests and 380 evening revellers. The Malvern View is the venue’s most popular licensed space, situated on the first floor of the hotel it can accommodate up to 120 friends and family to witness your ‘I dos’. The room can also be transformed into a sumptuous private dining space for up to 80 people for an elegant wedding breakfast. The luxe Garden Suite can seat up to 150 guests throughout the day, features a private bar and direct access to the beautiful terrace and gardens – a perfect setting for fantastic photographs, and an al fresco drinks reception.

Alternatively, the bright and cheery Mulberry Suite can hold up to 40 ceremony guests for an intimate gathering and up to 36 of your nearest and dearest for your reception.

We love... the luxurious Penthouse Suite, which features a bespoke bed and stunning freestanding bath, lounge area and luxury en suite with walk-in rain shower – ideal if you really want to push the boat out.
