There’s something undeniably magical about a winter wedding, the crisp air, frosted landscapes and that quiet sense of romance that seems to hang in the stillness of the season. If you’re dreaming of a winter celebration that feels both elegant and ethereal a baby blue wedding theme might be your perfect match. Soft, serene and effortlessly romantic, this delicate hue captures the essence of winter skies and icy elegance — while bringing a touch of “something blue” to your day.
Right on the home page of English Wedding you’ll see “This website is for everyone. It’s about love.” Sharing love stories of every kind brings so much joy to our screens, and while it’s been a little while since we’ve shared a proposal story, Jacob and Sneha’s is incredibly special. I will admit, as I did to their photographer Priti Shikotra on a quick email yesterday, that the way Jacob described the moment was so romantic it made me cry. And I’ve been writing about weddings for sixteen years! Over to Jacob who was kind enough to share their story, with those breathtaking images from Manchester wedding photographer Priti Shikotra. This is utterly gorgeous in every possible way. Enjoy!
I loved reading Hitched’s wedding trends prediction for 2026, which landed in my inbox this morning. Taking inspiration from Bridgerton, a rise in stately home celebrations and a search for innovative, alternative wedding cakes, 2026 weddings are going to be so exciting! There’s one trend I’m waaaayyy out of sync with – and one conspicuously missing from the list! – but the rest of Zoe’s predictions are utterly fabulous. (I’ll leave the one I think is suspect until last!)
The latest Wedding Trends Report from leading wedding planning website Hitched reveals that weddings in 2026 are going to be more intentional and expressive than ever, full of meaningful experiences and some incredibly retro choices.
It’s wonderful to be sharing this beautiful September wedding with you all today. Izzy and Tom chose some of our favourite suppliers for their wedding, and they’ve sent the sweetest reviews for their English Wedding interview. Not least, Barley Wood wedding photographer Martin Dabek who gets a glowing recommendation from Izzy and Tom. There are some truly breathtaking images of their day here, so slow your scroll and settle in for a lovely read!

Our wedding photography
We chose Bristol wedding photographer Martin Dabek.
I reached out to Plymouth-based wedding photographer Rebekka Werren when I saw this gorgeous model couple on her instagram.

Luna and Scott have a beautiful connection which brings real magic to this styled photoshoot. The vibe is Italian summer, the location is incredible; the images are bursting with love and promise.

Inspired by the warmth and charm of the Italian Riviera, this editorial shoot brings a touch of Mediterranean romance to the South West coast of England. Set against the dramatic shoreline of Plymouth, Devon, it captures the essence of a sun-drenched celebration — where citrus tones, elegant bridal fashion, and effortless styling come together in perfect harmony.
