September/October 2018

 
Well, hello lovely brides of Kent and welcome to my very first issue of Your Kent Wedding magazine! I’m extremely excited to be bringing you the absolute best of what our amazing county has to offer your wedding. We’ve pulled together some top tips from Kent’s venue styling experts to guide you through creating a wedding day as unique as you, just go along to pages 77-81 for more.

For me the most thrilling part of the planning process is dress shopping! Have a browse through our bridal boutiques special on pages 89-93, where our local experts will talk you through the latest wedding dress trends.

Having been a Brownie and a Girl Guide I’m a huge advocate of being prepared! Our Hot Topic experts advise on the most common wedding day pitfalls and crucially, how you can avoid them, ensuring your day runs as smooth as silk.

But before I sign off for this issue, let me tell you a little about myself. Whilst not ruling out the idea that one day my prince will come along, I’m still very much enjoying my singledom. However, make no mistake! I…am…wedding… obsessed! Like a lot of ladies, please tell me I’m not alone, I may have experienced the odd musing on what my big day would be like. So you can imagine the playground Your Kent Wedding has brought to my door! I hope you feel inspired in planning your dream day as you join me across the pages of this issue.

So, sit back, relax and plan!

The Orangery Maidstone

The Orangery itself is a light and elegant room, which is aesthetically designed to incorporate all the elements required for both comfort and grandeur. The arched windows reach from floor-to-ceiling, giving you and your loved ones superb views of the landscape.

Set beside the river Len, the gardens feature sweeping lawns, huge Wellingtonia Pines and Blue Cedars dating back more than 100 years. The photographic opportunities are endless with the boathouse by the lake and tumbling waterfall.

Weather permitting; you have the option of having your ceremony in the gazebo, nestled in the beautiful gardens. The magnificent Garden Room is a year round location for your nuptials. Five double-doors span the front façade providing guests with a perfect view of the Mill Barn Garden and of the bridal party as they make their momentous entrance across the bridge. Discreet floodlighting brings the venue to life after dusk, ensuring that the magic lasts through into the evening.

For the ceremony and seated meal the venue can host up to 150 of your nearest and dearest, and 250 for the evening reception. Carefully chosen caterers will work with you to ensure that you and your guests receive a delicious menu made from high-quality produce. The franchise bar is set at public house prices and offers a highly competitive wine ordering service.
