November/December 2018 |
|
Oh isn’t this time of year just magical? I know, I know, I say that with every new season. The truth is that I love them all – and that’s why we’re celebrating seasonal style in our venue décor special this issue. Turn to page 69 and see if you can decide on a favourite. Of course, before you get to the décor stage, you’re going to need a venue. This issue we explored Hackney & Haringey (page 23), the City & Tower Hamlets (page 31) as well as London’s restaurant scene (page 39) for your reading pleasure.
Real couple Clare and Stu – our cover stars this issue – plumped for all of the above, getting ready in Bethnal Green’s Town Hall Hotel, tying the knot in Hackney Town Hall and celebrating in a restaurant in the City. Check out our fabulous real weddings section on page 46 to read more about their big day.
Food is always a big part of any celebration in the Cassels household – and Christmas is no exception. This year all the more so as I looked into the flavour explosion that’s happened in the wedding cake arena of late – turn to page 81 to see the creative combos that will be hitting cake tables everywhere this coming year. I know, I know – the things I do in the name of research! You can thank me later.
Happy planning! | |

Something old, something new |

The Octagon
Housed within the Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), the Octagon was originally designed as a library by celebrated Victorian architect ER Robson, who took inspiration from the Reading Room at the British Museum.
Today, the space continues to pay homage to its origins, with coloured books lining the walls and its magnificent domed ceiling flooding the venue with light.
After a ceremony for up to 100 guests in the Senior Common Room, which sits on the first floor of the Grade II listed Queens’ Building, the Octogon is ideal for receptions for up to 220 guests for a sit-down dinner. On clement days, wedding parties can host their reception drinks al fresco in the courtyard.
