HERE COMES THE BRIDE

Whether you're freshly engaged and leafing through your very first issue of Wed (huge congratulations!) or a seasoned reader rapidly approaching that most dreamy of days (be still my beating heart!), we welcome you warmly to this: the biggest issue of Wed ever!

With our tenth anniversary looming on the horizon, it is a wonderful thing to behold this bumper issue. Ten years ago, as my now-husband and I busied ourselves planning our launch issue, I could never have imagined our humble 62-page publication would grow to this: Cornwall's (rather weighty!) wedding bible. As ever, we've drawn on our enchanting landscape and incredibly creative wedding industry to provide you with gorgeous inspiration aplenty in these pages. 

Our fashion story 'Siren Song' sets the mood, celebrating Cornwall's rugged coastline as well as a selection of light-as-air gowns embellished with delicate lace and fine detail - a dreamy look for a wedding by the sea. Ensure your personality shines through every element of your wedding wear with our pick of the most gorgeous bridal gowns, bridesmaids' dresses, shoes and accessories.

The personality-packed vibe extends to your decor and our styled shoots are brimming with standout scenes. 'A Loving Spirit' draws on the beguiling romance of Daphne Du Maurier, as well as the exquisite work of Cornwall-based artisans, to evoke an eerily beautiful wedding scene at Enys House. 'Garden Party' is an eye-popping carnival of blooms, bold prints and al fresco touches for a floral-fabulous wedding and 'Wild at Heart' takes you to a tucked-away spot for a woodland inspired wedding filled with foliage and gold accents - not to mention an owl and a reindeer!

Don't neglect the impact of your chairs in carrying your sense of style. While 'Chair Essentials' picks out the most stylish seating solutions for your day, wedding stylist, Elle Winsor-Grime, shows you how to dress your chairs in a range of themes in 'Chic Seats.'

And then there are the real weddings: from clifftop vows to secret garden celebrations, each beautiful story captures a rich sense of personality, the joy of love - and the enchanting beauty of Cornwall. You, dear readers, have chosen one awe-inspiring county to marry in - and may Wed be your companion every step of the way to your scenic celebrations!
