Finally, it’s summer again. it is my favourite season as we have longer days that we can enjoy relaxing on the beach. It is the season to relax and celebrate for no particular reason.
And summer weddings are the best, I think. Couples can enjoy their special day with their loved ones with that extra splash of colour, surrounded by guests wearing the most gorgeous colourful dresses that make summer weddings even brighter. Oh and, I forgot to mention that it’s also very hot but that is part of the fun…isn’t it? You will have a good excuse to have a refreshing cocktail bar at your reception and you can also provide your guests with colourful fans to keep them cool.
In this edition of I DO, we are celebrating the summer season. Some of the features we came up with include a guide for bridesmaid dresses. We partnered up with various local boutiques to show you what they have in stock and what is fashionable at the moment.
As per every issue, we have our advice article and the subject for this issue is the importance of communication in marriage. No one is a mind reader, not even your partner, therefore if you would like your spouse to truly understand you just communicate your feelings and thoughts; in an effective way, of course. Read more about this on page 7.
For our fabulous photoshoot, we wanted to create a fresh summer fun look and the best way to create such a theme is having children and sweets. We have our handsome pageboy Jacob, and our pretty young bridesmaids Paula and Andrea, accompanying our stunning model Sarah, at the fantastic venue Palazzo Parisio. Bernard managed to capture the perfect shots for this summer photoshoot. We hope to inspire you on your wedding day.
We also have the pleasure of meeting with another five couples who chose I DO Magazine to share their memorable day with us. Read more about their love stories, starting on page 23.
Finally, as an idea for your getaway, we came up with a couple of tips to follow when booking a cruise for your honeymoon.
Enjoy reading I DO Magazine and being inspired for your upcoming wedding.
Lots of love,
