Meet Lotty Stapleton of Yorkshire Yurts...

Tell us about your company...
Couples can create their own venue at their chosen location with our range of gorgeous yurts, traditional pole marquees and alternative stretch tents. We have a variety of sizes available for each structure, and our biggest can hold 400 friends and family. We offer a bespoke service to each of our couples, helping them bring their dreams to life.

What do you get asked most by couples?
Couples are keen to know how to decorate our yurts and marquees. Our structures are great for elevating your styling; you can hang anything from bunting and lighting to floristry, lanterns, ribbons and birdcages. Raising your decor up creates a showstopping backdrop.

What's your top wedding tip?
Be prepared for wet weather – we live in the UK after all! Make sure there's plenty of space inside your structure for all your guests, as the one thing we can't guarantee is sunshine. Also, make sure your site is well-drained and sheltered.

What's the best thing about getting married al fresco?
It's the perfect opportunity to break away from tradition. Go for food trucks rather than a sit-down meal, host your own funfair, create a festival or opt for sack races and axe-throwing for entertainment.

Legal experts warn couples not to change wedding plans amid wedding law reforms

Proposed changes to 19th Century weddings laws could be about to change everything for couples, but one legal expert has urged wedding planners to hang fire before making any changes to their big day. Legal experts from The University of Law say: "While there have been various updates to wedding laws in recent years, such as legalising same-sex marriage and changing the legal age requirement for marriage, nothing has changed the laws that govern marriage to this extent since the 1800s. "The main thing couples need to know now, is that nothing is going to change in the immediate future. The reforms still need public consultation, then the usual Parliamentary processes before implementation, all of which could take many years.
