When Bows & Chic International Wedding Magazine was first born by my predecessor it was just a spark—a small dream cradled in equal parts grit, grace, and quiet determination. As with all things rooted in passion, it began modestly… but grew into something deeply fulfilling, creatively rich, and beautifully expansive.
I joined this journey early on and quickly found myself swept into something extraordinary.
They say life is a journey. And it is. But what they often forget to add is that the journey transforms you—it deepens, stretches, and surprises you. It matures. It evolves. Just like this magazine has.
From the very first issue, I had no idea how much Bows & Chic would come to live in my heart and soul. It has become more than a publication—it’s a platform for creation, education, and celebration. It’s a place where I’ve had the privilege of championing both talented wedding suppliers and inspired couples from around the globe.
As I reflect on our journey from 2020 to now, I’m filled with gratitude and awe. The beauty we’ve had the honour of featuring, the stories we’ve shared, and the community we’ve cultivated—each one a marker of how far we’ve come. And it’s just the beginning.
This winter issue is a special one. A moment to pause, look back, and celebrate twenty remarkable issues. Inside, you’ll find some of our favourite throwbacks alongside fresh, inspiring features. And while my vision for Bows & Chic is still unfolding, I know—with absolute certainty—that the best is yet to come.
From my heart to yours,
