The ultimate companion to your wedding planning

Are you starting your wedding planning or just simply looking for some inspiration to help make your dreams a reality? Then we’ve got the magazine for you.

The sixteenth edition of North-West Brides is on newsagent shelves now and is packed with inspiration. From delicious cake creations and photoshoot inspiration, to all the latest bridal trends, tips and tricks, we’ve got it covered.

If you haven’t yet said yes to the dress, we have identified 2020/2021 bridal trends for you to take inspiration from. For those brides who prefer a quirkier take on tradition we have some daringly different styles for you to browse through too. We’ve also taken a look at the best suit trends for the grooms in this edition.

Whilst we have looked at the major elements of your big day, we’ve also taken a closer look at some of the finer details; cakes, headpieces and dreamy honeymoon destinations to name but a few. We’ve even got some top survival tips for your bridesmaids!

We spent a beautiful summers day at the stunning Manor House Country Hotel in Co. Fermanagh shooting our winter photoshoot and cover. Make sure to check out our ‘Glamour at the Manor’ 8 page photoshoot for some inspiration when it comes to being classically elegant with a modern twist.

Firm favourites in from past editions are making a welcome return, we have six real life fairy tales from across the North-West for you to take inspiration from. Our new look venue guide is also back by popular demand – a one stop shop to help you whittle down your venue options, we’ve also taken a look at some alternative food options you may not have thought about. You can also meet the 2019 North-West Brides Bridal Award winners in this edition.

There is the chance to help stretch those wedding budgets that bit further with competitions to win your wedding transport as well as £250 on North-West Brides.

With all that sorted all that remains is for you to sit back, get comfy and enjoy the planning.
