The frosty nip in the air, cosy knitwear, crackling fires, mulled wine Meet the team – and of course, weddings! Whether you go for a subtle theme with rich shades and earthy floral arrangements or decide to deck your reception hall in candy-cane brights and campy DChristmas cheer, it’s impossible to go wrong with festive nuptials. However, if you’re a little stuck, we suggest you read on for supplier inspo. Florist Sarah Diamant is on hand to offer some sophisticated foliage tips for this season and beyond, while Butterfly Fit’s personal trainer has exercises to ensure that your seasonal carb-loading doesn’t impact on your wedding-day wellness. Alongside all of this, there are bridal trends, grooms’ style, venue insight, beauty pampering and – for those who are feeling the January blues – a trio of exotic honeymoon destinations to put the spring back in your step.
