Local shoot - Romance under canvas

Let's take a moment to appreciate this gorgeous shoot again from the Sept/Oct 20 issue of Your Cheshire & Merseyside Wedding, with even more stunning images that we just didn't have space for in the magazine feature.

"Tipis are incredible spaces," says shoot coordinator and owner of Bouquet & Bells Claire Boon. "The canvas backdrops and handmade rustic furnishings just cried out for an autumnal styled shoot," she continues. So, Bouquet & Bells set about gathering together a fabulous team of wedding suppliers, capable of bringing the vision to life. The palette sings of the season with plenty of muted oranges, beautiful foliage and copper finishing touches. Claire says, "Those involved went above and beyond to ensure every last detail was covered."

Expert says prenups aren't just for the rich and famous

Legal experts at Richard Nelson LLP are urging Brits to rethink who prenups are really for. While often seen as something reserved for high-profile couples, data suggests they remain largely overlooked in everyday relationships. Just 7 percent of divorced Brits had a prenuptial agreement in place before separating, highlighting a significant gap between perception and reality. Regionally, attitudes vary. Manchester has emerged as the UK's 'prenup capital', with 13 percent of divorced couples having one in place, compared to 8 percent in London and 11 percent in Birmingham. Meanwhile, cities including Liverpool and Southampton reported no uptake among those surveyed.
