October/November 2021

 
Autumn is one of my favourite times of the year. I love seeing the trees change colour, going for long walks and getting cosy on the sofa with a cup of hot chocolate and a great film. I must admit it feels like we haven’t really had a summer this year due to the poor weather, but hopefully, we’ll have a relatively dry season, so we can all enjoy the great outdoors. If you’re having a fun-filled celebration or incorporating autumnal colours into your day, make sure you get in touch to show us pictures.

This issue is all about seasons. We’ve asked photographers to send in their favourite images, boutiques for dresses for the bridal party and local experts for their advice. We also have three gorgeous real weddings, fairytale-themed dresses, and so much more!

We’re always looking for weddings and styled shoots to feature in the magazine. You can submit your day via our website or email me at melissab@kdmediapublishing.com

Happy planning!

Hampton Court Palace

Hampton Court Palace was the chosen place of residence for many kings and queens of England and has elaborately expanded over the centuries. With building beginning in 1515, the Tudor palace, with its red-rose Tudor brick, soon became a favourite of King Henry VIII. In the 17th century, William and Mary expanded the palace with the contrasting Baroque architectural style of Wren. The property is guaranteed to impress with its cobbled courtyards, peaceful gardens and soaring staterooms.

The Privy Garden was created to allow a quiet space for the monarch’s exclusive use, but today the garden has been restored for everyone to enjoy how it would have looked for William III in 1702. The Privy Garden can be used for private receptions, with guests able to arrive by boat and enter the palace through the magnificent Tijou Screens, designed by Jean Tijou in 1690, straight into the garden.

The Little Banqueting House is a small but picturesque space, ideal for intimate celebrations of up to 50 guests for a ceremony and seated reception and 80 for a drinks reception. Built for William III, it’s set slightly away from the main palace, overlooking the river with a rich sense of majesty and history.

Set in the beautiful Tiltyard Gardens, The Garden Room was built in a 1920s style and boasts a private walled garden. Large enough to seat 180 friends and family, it’s licensed for both indoor and outdoor ceremonies, and is a great area for live bands and dancing. It also can be used in conjunction with other spaces, including the Little Banqueting House or the Palace State Apartments, to provide a memorable day for all guests.

The King’s Guard Chamber displays a remarkable collection of nearly 3,000 swords, bayonets, muskets and pistols on the walls. This awe-inspiring room replicates William III’s assertion of power and dominance over his court and can accommodate up to 150 nearest and dearest for dinner and 200 for the evening drinks reception.

The painted ceiling by Antonio Verrio can be found in the Queen’s Drawing Room, which looks out onto the gardens and can hold 120 loved ones for the service.

The Great Watching Chamber was the first of Henry VIII’s State Apartments beyond the Great Hall and hosts 100 people for the vows.

Seated receptions can take place in The King’s Eating Room with up to 40 people, The Cartoon Gallery (150), The Orangery & Privy Garden (250) or The Great Hall (270). The Great Hall is one of the most jaw-dropping historical venues in the country. Originally designed as a feasting chamber for Henry VIII, it was the last Medieval great hall to be constructed for the English monarchy. With its stained-glass windows, sumptuous tapestries and hammer-beam ceiling, today the Great Hall makes a perfect venue for show-stopping ceremonies and lavish receptions.
