June/July 2018
 
There’s so much to think about when it comes to wedding planning that it pays to look ahead – in our magazine, that is. This issue we’ve got a roundup of Gorgeous gardens, you can meet some of the region’s top outfitters in our Bridal boutiques special, and pore over the latest in Wedding cakes, as well as a wealth of top tips, hot news and fab competitions.

Meanwhile our Hot topic this issue is all about how to sort out those last minute niggles that always seem to come around. So, while we can’t actually organise your wedding for you we can certainly help, and while we might not have Meghan and Harry, we do have Sarah and Tim, and Flick and Nathan in this issue's Real weddings, bringing a fresh twist to tradition. It might be a cliché, but along with all the lovely suppliers we feature, everyone at Your Berks, Bucks & Oxon Wedding think it’s all about making your dreams come true.

Stoke Park

Close to Windsor and combining the best of both traditional and modern settings, Stoke Park’s immaculate white Palladian mansion is the perfect big-day backdrop, made famous from its use in films such as Goldfinger and Layer Cake. As well as the 300 acres of parkland with sporting facilities including a 27-hole golf course, landscaped gardens and the famous Repton Bridge, you’ll also enjoy all the little details like the stone carving and statues, art and chandeliers, as well as the iconic cascading staircase.

Tie the knot in one of eight rooms, as well as the Fountain Terrace. The Ballroom offers magnificent high ceilings and exquisite views of the fountains and gardens, designed by Humphrey Repton and Capability Brown, while the spectacular south-facing Fountain Room luxuriates in elegant design, and both can hold up to 146 of your loved ones. All the ceremony rooms can be used for receptions, and the glass-domed Wyatt, Fountain Room and Ballroom can all be linked together for larger weddings, for a truly exceptional experience. And there are 49 bedrooms and suites at this 5 AA Red Star hotel.
