November/December 2018 |
| |
Christmas is my absolute favourite time of year, in fact, I may be a little obsessed. Yes, I’m one of those annoying people who starts counting down to Christmas Day immediately after the last bauble has gone back into the loft following New Year. From the chill in the air and warm woolly jumpers, to the colours, smells, sights and sounds of the festivities, a time when strangers are that little bit nicer to each other – I love it all!
So, in deciding what to bring to you this issue, our usual blend of beautiful real weddings and stunning styled shoots just had to be neatly packaged together with a sprinkle of seasonal magic all neatly tied with a ribbon! Turn to Hot Topic on page 103, as we ask experts how to create a festive frolic of a wedding day. If you’re planning a winter wedding yourself and are wondering how you can tailor your beauty regime to best effect, then look no further than page 116 where our beauty and fashion experts discuss styling for the season.
Before you go, don’t forget to check out our gorgeous styled shoots on pages 69, 73 and 83. The amazing wedding suppliers of Kent have done it again, with breathtaking inspiration at every turn.
Happy reading! |

| Spotlight on Canterbury & Thanet |
| |
Charlton Park
Charlton Park is a welcoming Grade II country house set in over 100 acres of parkland, seven miles from Canterbury. This elegant and secluded location is the perfect setting for exclusive-use and can be easily accessed via the dramatic driveway sweeping up to the expansive white Regency façade from the peaceful village of Bishopsbourne.
The 40 foot Regency Ballroom on the first floor is resplendent with piped ceiling work, a Bechstein piano and large bay windows overlooking the countryside. It can host a civil ceremony for 100 guests, overlooking the gorgeous herbaceous borders, woodland and fields, seating 80 for the wedding breakfast.
On the ground floor, a panelled hallway and Drawing Room combine to form a large reception area. Here, celebrant-led ceremonies can be conducted with 40 of your nearest and dearest, with more guests welcomed later as celebrations expand into the Hall for the evening.
When the weather is kind, celebrant-led nuptials can also take place on the lawns surrounded by 300 of your loved ones, or in the woods accompanied by 60 family and friends. Further outdoor reception space for up to 350 is available on the Reception Lawn, Croquet Lawn or Lower Lawns.
