August/September 2022 |
| |
t’s official, I’m a married woman – eeek! After being engaged for nearly 18 months, and with all of the lockdowns and uncertainty, it’s been quite a rollercoaster of emotions, but I couldn’t have asked for a better day. It seems like just yesterday that I was telling our loved ones that we were engaged, and here we are as husband and wife (I don’t think I’ll ever get used to saying that).
My number one piece of advice is to enjoy the process and make it about what you want. We found that many of our nearest and dearest were quite vocal about what they wanted and how the day should be, which can feel quite overwhelming at times but try to remember it’s meant to be about you and your partner. Pick things that you want, and that will make you both happy and forget about everyone else. The day goes by in a flash so take some time out just the two of you to have a chat and take everything in.
Things will go wrong, but that’s okay. On the day, you won’t notice the little things, and all that will matter will be celebrating with your friends and family. Surround yourself with people that you love and trust. My bridesmaids were wonderful at keeping my nerves in check and making sure I felt like a special bride. I couldn’t have asked for better, and I can’t wait to look back on our photographs with them.
This issue is full of inspiration, we have a feature focusing on the latest flower trends, a jewellery and accessories feature, and we showcase gorgeous fairytale venues. If that’s not enough, we also look at showstopping dresses and wow-factor honeymoon destinations.
Remember, if you’ve recently celebrated your day or have been involved with a styled shoot, you can submit it here or via email.

Avoncroft Museum of Historic Buildings
Made up of 30 properties, the Avoncroft Museum of Historic Buildings is a grand wedding venue surrounded by beautiful countryside.
Located just 50 metres from the main entrance, New Guesten Hall’s 14th-century roof was originally part of Worcester Cathedral’s Reception Hall and contains beautiful Medieval carpentry that can be seen throughout the building. The space can hold 120 guests for the ceremony and wedding breakfast and can be expanded to cater for an extra 60 loved ones for the reception.
Intimate celebrations take place in the Weaver Gallery, located above the main hall, with up to 40 nearest and dearest.
Surrounding New Gueston Hall is a manicured lawn that’s ideal for couples wanting to mingle and entertain, with the option of garden games, a drinks reception or food vans.

| |
Lush's cult favourite Dragon's Egg bath bomb is going gold for Childhood Cancer Awareness month launching online from 23rd September and in all Lush UK&I stores from 24th September 2022. This September, it's with heavy hearts that Lush UK&I is going gold for childhood cancer awareness month. This year the Constantine family (the co-founders of Lush) lost seven-year-old Dexter Constantine-Tatchell, their Master of Dragons. He fought fiercely against Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare childhood cancer that lacks awareness as well as a lack of funding for research and treatment.
