September/October 2021

 
Unbelievably, I have been at An Essex Wedding HQ for all 100 issues - gasps - so it seems only fitting that I write this issue's letter from the editor! We have been the leaders in bringing local wedding content to all of our lovely readers past and present for 18 years, becoming a much needed go-to wedding bible for couples tying the knot in our gorgeous county of Essex.

I can't deny, I have seen it all, and Essex couples really have pushed the boundaries in wedding themes and styling over the last 18 years. As you can see looking at all of our previous cover shots, the magazine has evolved and will continue to do so ensuring we remain by the side of nearlyweds across the county for many more years to come!

I had my own Essex wedding back in 2018 at The Old Parish Rooms, Rayleigh (pictured below); which is also featured in a real wedding this issue over on page 35. Our amazing new account manager, Kirsty O'Connor – who's celebrating her first issue working on An Essex Wedding - also tied the knot in July 2021 at Essex's Creeksea Place (pictured right); you can read all about her big day over on page 57. So we really do live and breathe weddings here at An Essex Wedding, they are in our blood and in our hearts and now, more than ever - especially after the last 18 months - An Essex Wedding is here, bigger and better than ever to shout about weddings and suppliers across our much-loved county of Essex!

Our 100th birthday milestone, is credit to our wonderful wedding suppliers that have supported us, our fabulous couples that have graced our pages and our amazing readers that continue to follow An Essex Wedding – thank you!

Happy birthday and happy planning!

The Old Parish Rooms

A beautiful red brick old school house, The Old Parish Rooms is set within the grounds of the church at the top of the high street in the picturesque town of Rayleigh. Boasting a historic façade, inside has a contrasting cool and contemporary interior of white brick walls and exposed steel beams. The venue offers a blank canvas for big-day styling, with two mezzanine floors that couples can utilise to create different areas but keep guests together in the same room.

For ceremonies, there's a choice between the 'chapel' mezzanine if you're going for a VIP only guest list of 30; or for a larger gathering, hold the ceremony on the ground floor with it's high ceiling and huge window-flooding the space with natural light-and standout lightbulb chandelier. The venue as a whole can seat 80 guests across all mezzanine and ground floors which makes for an amazing atmosphere. For a non-seated party or reception 100 friends and family can attend.
