May/June 2018
 
Editor's letter

I love this time of year. The sun is properly starting to break through the clouds, showcasing the stunning countryside and coastline of the fabulous county we call home. The Your North East Wedding team’s also in full swing – meeting up with local suppliers, visiting venues and speaking to newlyweds about the choices they made to ensure their big day was full of nothing but love and laughter.

What I love about the North East is that nothing’s too much trouble, with people coming together to make sure any couple’s nuptials are stunning from start to finish. With this in mind I’ve spoken to a huge amount of local suppliers to get their insider info on all things wedding. Want to know the top cake trends for 2018? Turn to p47 for our master bakers’ advice. After music to knock your guests’ socks off, as well as something to amuse the adults and kids? Our spread on page 55 is fit-to-burst with entertainment, from a double-decker soft play bus and mobile casino to clay pigeon shooting and even a Britain’s Got Talent contender!

We’ve also ensured you’re covered on the venues front, looking at places to wed in the Tees Valley (p19) and by the water (p25). All this plus stunning reader weddings (p31 and p36), beauty inspiration (p78) and a host of fantastic competitions, including an overnight stay at Hexham’s Slaley Hall (p13) – and a honeymoon to Oman, worth £3,000, on page 101!

Rockliffe Hall

Set within 365 acres of beautiful woodland, on the North Yorkshire/County Durham border, Rockliffe Hall is the perfect mix of old-meets-new, with an 18th-century Old Hall and contrasting, contemporary New Hall. Situated on the banks of the River Tees, it’s the ultimate venue to hold a wedding in unsurpassed luxury.

Get wed in the Rockliffe Suite (170 guests), the largest event room at Rockliffe and offering an abundance of natural light and elegant décor. The lovingly restored Victorian Orangery (120 guests, ceremony only) features high glass ceilings and stunning views, the Morning Room (65 guests) is brimming with traditional features and is perfect for intimate ceremonies and receptions, or choose the Old Hall Arches (80 guests), a glamorous yet Gothic setting for both your civil ceremony and reception.
