If you’re in the throws of wedding planning, you’ll already have had a lot of... how shall I put it... ‘guidance’ from friends/family/ total strangers about how your day should look and feel. They will have ‘insight’ into the traditions you should follow, which venue you should choose, and even what you should wear. Well, we’re here to tell you that you, as a couple, should do exactly what you like! Weddings are so personal and individual, that they should reflect you, not your mother-in-law, your best friend or your hairdresser! Do things differently if you wish, or stick to tradition if that’s what feels right, but it must feel exactly that... right. This issue, we break the bridesmaid rules over on page 81 (jumpsuits for your girls?) and get…

“It’s a good idea to have a few items around £50 as this is a popular price point with guests.” Tasneem Shafiq, John Lewis “Add more products to your list than you have guests – that way, guests buying last-minute will still feel like they are choosing something special and reduces the likelihood of them going off-list!” Rebecca Saunders, Not On The High Street. “It’s 100% ok to ask for cash, and to mix cash with gifts that will be around for years.” Ali Beaven, Prezola “Leave your list open for at least a month after the wedding as there may be guests who were not able to purchase on the lead up to it.” Anne-Marie Jenkins, The Wedding Shop. “The effort and imagination you put into your list will…

KATIE BAKER AND JOSHUA MAYES HELD THEIR ROMANTIC PASTEL WEDDING AT GAYNES PARK, ESSEX, ON 16TH SEPTEMBER 2016 “I really wanted to find a venue where nobody we knew had got married, and we set a travel limit of an hour from home when searching. Initially, Gaynes Park wasn’t top of my list as I wasn’t sure I could make the space look different enough to the other barn weddings we’d been to, but we fell in love as soon as we stepped inside. We didn’t really have a theme; it was more that I wanted a collection of lovely things that went well together. This was the same with the colours, as we just wanted a soft palette that blended together. This developed into mint, soft pinks and purples,…

SOPHIA YOUNG AND ANTHONY GAYLE TIED THE KNOT AT THE GALLIVANT, EAST SUSSEX, ON 17TH OCTOBER 2015 “Anthony and I have spent lots of time on Camber Sands since we met, mostly for bracing dog walks in the autumn and winter. The Gallivant Hotel overlooks the beach, so it ticked all the boxes for us when it came to finding a venue. We wanted the wedding to have a relaxed boho vibe, so we chose pale pinks, greys, blues and maroon with a hint of gold. I’m a florist, and it was really important to me that the flowers didn’t take over the day. I kept our arrangements simple but with lots of texture, including pale pinks, creams, dashes of maroon and a mix of heather, succulents, aloe vera, ferns…

Use giant paper flowers, gold chargers and coloured glassware to create tables with major wow factor Nothing says ‘party’ more than bright paper flowers, tropical details and arty pops of colour. If you’re getting married in a warehouse, gallery or even a marquee, modern styling like this will transform the feel of your space into a carnival atmosphere. Worried it will look too messy? “Take two or three clashing colours such as orange and pink and use these as your main focus,” advises stylist Lisa Johnson at Carmela Weddings (carmelaweddings.co.uk). Now, where’s the rum punch?

1 CHILDREN WON’T CONFORM Despite a full rundown by you/ their parents, nothing can stop an excited three-year-old shouting mid-vows “I need a weeeee!”. Or worse, *the other*. 2 YOU’LL WONDER WHY YOU ORDERED SUCH A LARGE BOUQUET Those wild, rustic flowers looked so perfect and effortless on Pinterest. But now you feel like you’re clasping half the forest floor. And it’s heavy. 3 YOU’LL RANDOMLY FOCUS ON SOMETHING INAPPROPRIATE, LIKE THE OLD BLOKE ON THE FOURTH ROW Who is he anyway? He’s got a moustache. Do you even know anyone with a moustache? 4 SOMEONE WILL DEFINITELY WALK IN LATE We know – SO rude! Just try not to give them ‘the glare’. Just nod and smile, nod and smile… 5 YOU’LL FIND YOURSELF DYING FOR A DRINK Nerves…

GLOWING SKIN “To achieve picture-perfect skin, use a primer to create a good base and then follow with your foundation – I recommend using the Smashbox BB Water foundation for a really flawless finish.” Nigel Barnes, Make-up Artist STAYING POWER “Curls look amazing but they have to be done properly to last the whole day. Prep hair well before you start – on really wet hair, I recommend using a mousse with a drop of Argan Oil to give it shine and hold, then dry hair downwards with your hairdryer to close the cuticle and diffuse the roots to get maximum lift.” Karine Jackson, Hair Stylist FRESH FLORALS Work lots of greenery into your bouquet, like this one from Wild At Heart, for a totally spring-ready feel.

OUR EXPERTS Senior Entertainment Coordinator at entertainment agency, Alive Network Head Designer at bridal brand, Hayley Paige Owner of One Stylish Day, a wedding planning and styling agency Florist and owner of The Flower Lounge Designer at amazing lingerie brand, Ultimo FASHION Q My fiancé wants me to wear a big, princess gown, but I want something more modern. Is there a middle ground? Cara, 28 Hayley: I would recommend something that has a detachable overskirt, so you can rock the ballgown for the ceremony and remove for a sleeker silhouette during the reception. Or, we have some lovely in-between styles that feature tulle skirts that aren’t too statement, but are still really feminine and pretty. RECEPTIONS Q. WE WANT A GREAT GATSBY THEME, BUT WE ARE ON A STRICT…

BUDGET PLANNER The first thing to do is sit down with your fiancé and talk openly about the kind of day you want. The main ceremony options are: 1. CHURCH OF ENGLAND You may have to attend a number of Sunday services beforehand. The marriage can be authorised by calling banns on three consecutive Sundays three months before the day, or by obtaining a common licence. Church fees are from £415, with extra costs for choir, organ, etc. In Scotland, banns aren’t necessary, but 15 days’ notice must be given at a register office. 2. ROMAN CATHOLIC Take your baptism and confirmation certificates to your priest at least six months before — if one of you is unbaptised then the priest needs to give permission. You may have to attend…

KELLY MORRISON AND SAM MCMULKIN HELD THEIR COLOURFUL WEDDING AT HAMPTON COURT HOUSE, SURREY, ON 28TH JULY 2016 “Although we held our wedding in the beautiful surroundings of Hampton Court House, we’re both passionate about music so we decided to give our day a bit of a Glastonbury vibe to add a personal touch. The cake had a Glastonbury theme, and we made our own festival table plan and table-name signs. We added fun little touches like cocktail umbrellas as place settings, and had inflatable guitars and glow stick necklaces for the evening party. We didn’t have a rigid colour scheme for the day as we didn’t want everything to look too uniform. We chose soft pastel shades for the bridesmaid dresses, but we made it a bit more interesting…

If you’re struggling to meet everyone’s demands and manage your numbers, an evening guest list is a failsafe backup. Use it as an opportunity to invite a host of your parents’ friends, work colleagues or plus ones you’re less familiar with, but bear in mind some guests might take offence at only being invited to the evening if you’re asking them to travel a long way. Minimise the risk by making your evening do into an event in itself: set a firm start time, make sure guests are greeted with a drink and put on catering, as there’s nothing worse than feeling like a bit of an afterthought.…

If a honeymoon adventure is your idea of heaven, dedicating your gift list to make that dream happen is a popular choice. But where to go? Founder of Patchwork, Olivia Knight, says the options are endless: “It’s amazing to see the incredible trips that are funded at Patchwork, including action-packed stays in Iceland, romantic road trips across America, backpacking in India, island-hopping around the Galapagos and culture trips to cities like Tokyo and Shanghai.” But if it’s all-out luxury you’re after? “The islands of the Maldives have consistently been our most popular destination,” says Andrew Green from Buy Our Honeymoon. “Luxury, seclusion, white sands and the crystal-clear ocean: the Maldives are the definition of a romantic tropical paradise.” WHILE YOU’RE THERE… Don’t forget to include some more out-there experiences on…

MOSTLY As MRS ORGANISED Ever since you set up that lunchtime book club in primary school, you’ve loved planning events and, even though you hate to admit it, bossing people around! But that’s great news for your wedding – you know what you want and how to get the job done. With a knack for getting the best out of people, your suppliers will understand your vision from day one and you’ll find the whole planning process a dream come true. Just remember, though, that not everyone may have as much passion and attention to detail as you. MOSTLY Cs QUEEN OF TRADITION You’re a true romantic who loves the sentiment and formality of a wedding. You’ve waited for this day for, like, ever, so it’s got to be exactly…

DREW BARRYMORE If the runways have taught us anything this season, it’s that sleeves are everything. Tick off two big trends in one with a gorgeous cold shoulder/winged dress, à la Drew. KARLIE KLOSS Sleek, minimalist and so chic – Karlie’s knockout yet understated dress and fashion-forward cape is the ultimate show of confidence. Work it on your W-day with a hint of jewellery, and a sassy red lip. DAKOTA JOHNSON There’s something so ‘old Hollywood’ about a fluid, silk dress, and who doesn’t want to feel like a starlet on their big day? Channel Dakota’s super-seductive style with one of these luxe look-a-likes. KRISTEN WIIG The trend for 3D florals is nothing new, but Kristen’s knockout gown proves the look is going nowhere. Embrace it with big, textured blooms…

LOUISE ALLOTEY AND CHRIS MOUNTAIN MARRIED AT GLAMOROUS DARTMOUTH HOUSE IN MAYFAIR, LONDON, ON 14TH MAY 2016 “The most important thing to us about our day was that everybody had a great time – lovely food, then dancing the night away! We knew we wanted a London wedding, and often stroll past Dartmouth House on our way home from work – we loved the elegant feel of the space. We wanted to keep the colour palette and outfits quite simple, which was why we decided on a black and white theme. We initially said that everything would be white, but I wasn’t sure that Chris would agree to wearing a white suit! We decided on black for the groom and ushers, and it made sense to match the bridesmaids to…

MEGAN AND ANDREW TAYLOR HELD THEIR OUTDOOR WEDDING AT ZORGVLIET WINES, SOUTH AFRICA, ON THE 15TH OF OCTOBER 2016 “Andrew and I first met on a bus while we were both travelling through Turkey. There was an instant spark, so we embarked on a year of long distance dating from the US to South Africa. On one of the many trips I took to South Africa, we went on a 3,500km road trip around the country. One night, we stayed at Zorgvliet during a tour of Stellenbosch – a town within South Africa’s wine country. We weren’t even engaged at the time, but we looked around the venue because Andrew could see how smitten I was with it. When we did get engaged two years later, it was the first…

TIME TO PREPARE For your skin to be at its very best for your moment in the spotlight, you need to get ahead of the game at least two months before. Start by sorting out your cleansing routine – forget the face wipes, it’s time to get serious! We love Clarins’ Gentle Foaming Cleanser (£19.50), followed by a sweep of toner, which will remove excess dirt and oil (lifesaver!). Finish with a good moisturiser – Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream (£24.50) is a great all-rounder, or splash out on Crème de la Mer’s cult classic, The Moisturizing Soft Cream (£115). To give your skin an extra boost, use a facial exfoliator twice a week, which should help keep your skin blemish-free and glowy. Next up, feed your skin from the inside.…
