October/November 2022 |
| |
After months, even years, of reading my excited babble about our dear CWM colleague Melissa’s wedding day, you may be relieved to hear that it finally happened, and what a day it was! I’ll leave the storytelling to the bride herself, as you can read all about it from page 90, but I would like to impart a little of my own bridesmaid’s wisdom centred around the morning preparations. These moments were the highlight for me, and it’s a part of the day often overlooked amongst the hubbub of wedding planning, so…
- Be as organised as you possibly can in the lead up. This way, you’ll have very little to worry about on the day. Admittedly, Melissa’s abilities in this area are superhuman, but knowing we weren’t allowed into the venue to set up until 10am she’d put together individual boxes containing everything each reception table needed. All we had to do when we arrived was unpack them in the right place. We were done in no time, stress free and ready to be beautified.
- When you have your trial, be sure to discuss with your hair and make-up artists the morning’s timings. Understanding whether there’ll be any travel time to the ceremony involved; or restrictions such as when you’re allowed entry to the venue, if you’re getting ready there, will help them work out where they should be up to and when. Melissa’s team had everything running like clockwork in a very tight time frame.
- Enjoy every moment. I can’t explain how special these few hours spent with our bride were. Chaotic and gone in a flash, but oh-so precious. I spent a significant proportion of it in tears and I could probably count the number of times I’ve happy cried prior to this on one hand! As we waited for Melissa to be called in to see the registrar, only the four of us remained in the cottage, and a hush descended for the first time that day as the bride centred herself and absorbed the enormity of what was about to happen. I swear I’ll never forget that time, my heart nearly beat right out of my chest with love for my amazing friends.
My point is this: devote some of your planning time to the morning preparations and when your photographer offers you the option of capturing them, take them up on it. You won’t regret it, promise.
Now, while I leave you and mull over what on Earth I’m going to regale you with now the wedding is over, I hope you enjoy this issue. It’s bursting at the seams with inspiration! We’ve taken a look into the world of wedding entertainment, and put together an indispensable A to Z guide to dress shopping not to be missed.
Enjoy and keeeep planning!

Peelings Manor Barns
Peelings Manor Barns is located in the pretty hamlet of Hankham between the South Downs and Pevensey Levels. The manor of Peelings is mentioned in the Domesday Book, but there’s been a settlement on the site since Anglo-Saxon times and probably long before that. The manor and farm buildings are Grade II listed, with the earliest surviving part of the house dating back to the late 15th century.
Although the venue isn’t licensed for ceremonies, many opt to have a blessing during their reception. These can take place anywhere on site with space for 100 in the Flint Barn or 200 maximum capacity across the whole venue.
A totally DIY venue, Peelings Manor Barns offers the ideal blank canvas for wedding receptions. The space includes the stunning Grade II listed traditional Sussex flint barn with its cartwheel chandeliers and enclosed outdoor spaces to the front and back along with plenty of cover. You hire the space only and everything else is up to you with complete freedom of choice. You have the option to hire all or part of the space. The same capacities of 100 inside the barn and 200 site-wide apply.
