Well, what a day! We are still reeling from the Cornish Brides Summer Wedding Fair at Kingsley Village on July 11 and are absolutely lost for words. Not only did we have the pleasure of the company of more than 45 of the south-west's best bridal businesses, we also welcomed around 1,200 visitors to the fair ... an astonishing number of people making this, by far, our most successful and magical wedding fair. Thank you SO MUCH to each and every lovely bride-to-be who came to the fair today and to your family and friends who came with you. We loved meeting you all and hope you had a great day and found lots of inspiration for your wedding. We were particularly delighted to welcome so many of the ladies who took part in the Truro Race for Life today and came along to the event after the race. Very well done on running the race and thank you so much for still having the energy to make it over to Kingsley Village.

TANYA's COURAGE: We were delighted to welcome representatives from the Tanya's Courage Charity to our Summer Wedding Fair. They will be showcasing their range of Wedding Favours, so please be sure to visit their stand and support this hugely worthwhile charitiy which gives invaluable help and support to young people with cancer.

The Autumn/Winter issue of Cornish Brides will be out at the end of August. In the meantime, however our fabulous Spring/Summer issue - bigger and better than ever with great features, invaluable information and inspiring ideas - is still available to download. Just go to 'Our Publication' on the menu (left) and click on the front cover.
