Well, didn’t 2018 pass by in a flash? All of us here at An Essex Wedding wish you all the happiest of New Years and welcome all the newly engaged brides- and grooms-to-be, as well as our frequent readers to our little bit of wedding paradise.

We’re dedicated to helping you have the nuptials of your dreams. Each page of our magazine is full with helpful tips, tricks and inspiration straight from some of the region’s finest experts.

This issue we have three fabulous real weddings, two strikingly gorgeous shoots, expert Q&A’s as well as a focus on delectable catering options and toe-tapping music and entertainment to boot.

Whichever season in which you choose to tie the knot, make sure you enter your big day on our Get Involved tab on anessex.wedding for your chance to have your nuptials featured in the pages of the magazine.
