For the lovers, dreamers and planners

One of my favourite things about the Spring Issue is that it flips to our Annual Wedding Issue.

There is something so lovely about creating a publication dedicated to celebration. To love stories, beautiful venues, regional suppliers, creative details and the people who help bring someone’s once-in-a-lifetime day to life.

The Mid-Western Region has become such a special place for weddings.

We have the scenery, the wine, the food, the historic buildings, the country charm, the wide-open views and the kind of local businesses who care deeply about what they do. From venues and florists to photographers, stylists, celebrants, transport, beauty, accommodation, cakes and little finishing touches, there is so much talent right here.

This year’s Wedding Issue brings together some of that magic.

It is for couples planning their day, but it is also for anyone who loves seeing our region through that romantic, celebratory lens. Because weddings do more than bring people together for one day. They bring visitors into our towns, fill local accommodation, support small businesses and create memories that people carry with them long after they leave.

Whether you are newly engaged, helping someone plan, dreaming ahead or simply love a beautiful regional wedding story, I hope you enjoy flipping through this issue.

It really is one of the prettiest publications we get to create each year.
