June/July 2018
 
We’ve made it – summer’s finally here and with the royal wedding still fresh in our memories now’s the perfect time to roll your sleeves up and get your big-day plans underway. I love this time of the year, there’s so much to be happy about – sunshine, bright blooms, al fresco dining and endless evenings to name a few. Mix that with love, laughter, friends and family and you’ll have the perfect combo for your special day. Summer lends itself to bohemian laid-back styling and if this is your thing, you’ll love our bridal fashion feature on page 84. Our real weddings from page 36 are also brimming with inspiration and, drum roll please, the time has come to announce the winners of our Wedding of the Year competition 2017! Turn to page 60 to read all about their day. All that’s left to do is pour yourself a refreshing glass of Pimm’s, sit back and relax with your copy of Your Herts and Beds Wedding and prepare to lose yourself in an abundance of seasonal vibes.

Knebworth House and Barns

Surrounded by 250 acres of parkland, the historic Knebworth House and Barns is a luxurious setting for your big day.

Couples can tie the knot in front of 180 loved ones in the Garden Gazebo and the oak structured Cobbold Barn comfortably seats 80 guests for the ceremony, 120 for your sit-down meal and up to 300 for the evening party. Larger gatherings can take place in the Manor Barn, which accommodates 180 loved ones for the nuptials and wedding breakfast, followed by receptions for up to 300 of your friends and family.

A more traditional option is the Jacobean Banqueting Hall within the house, which caters for 80 guests for the ceremony and can be used with the adjoining Edwardian Dining Parlour and Victorian Library for gatherings of up to 120 for your reception.
