August/September 2018

 
I have to admit, I am not a fan of festivals. Having camped once in my life, I vowed never to do it again! But I do love an outdoor, 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, these are 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 has been the inspiration behind my moodboard for this issue so before the sun sets on summer, #getshopping.

Also in this issue, we have fab fashion and glamorous beauty buys, romantic real-life weddings, hot honeymoon destinations (I want to be back in Dominica right now after being the lucky editor chosen to venture to this jewel in the Caribbean to review it, p100) and plenty more.

Until next issue…

Larmer Tree Gardens

This picturesque estate stretches across 11 acres of manicured gardens, forming the ideal setting for a quintessentially English celebration where guests can enjoy a glass of Pimm’s while admiring the peacocks that freely roam the grounds.

Four of the listed buildings within the grounds are licensed for civil ceremonies. The Jubilee Hall can hold up to 150 guests (and is the contingency plan for wet weather), while The Roman Temple is ideal for an al fresco ceremony, allowing eight loved ones (including the couple) to stand under the structure and with other guests seated just outside. The intimate Lower Indian Room is licensed for 12 people, again with further seating just outside, and the General’s Room works well for a party of just 13. The wedding breakfast takes place in The New Pavilion followed by the evening reception in the Jubilee Hall.
