Love is sweet with Yorkshire wedding cake designer Grace Eva Cakes

A wedding cake by Grace Eva Cakes

Like so many of us, 2020 has been a turbulent year for award-winning cake designer Grace Eva Cakes. It started with excitement as Grace planned to open her first premises in the Georgian Quarter in Beverley, but the pandemic soon hit. Not only has she been on-call to reassure her lovely couples whose weddings have been postponed (and provide them with a complimentary biscuit box!) but she has also had to postpone her own wedding, which was due to take place in May.

"I'm now excited to meet couples in the shop for consultations," Grace says. "We'll offer modern wedding cakes, bespoke celebration cakes, biscuit boxes and cupcakes. My style focuses on contemporary design, elegance and personality, incorporating tall tiers, clean lines and delicate sugar art."

What advice does Grace have for other couples who have had to postpone their wedding? "Try to enjoy your would-have-been special day," she says. "We asked our guests to take a photo of themselves raising a toast that we put in an album. On the day, we celebrated with lots of fizz, and we even attempted making our wedding meal! What's a year when you have the rest of your lives together?"

Bye Bye Sweet Caroline: The Classic Anthems BANNED From UK Weddings

The era of the predictable wedding singalong is officially dead, according to new data from entertainment agency Jonny Ross Music. New figures have revealed that Britain's couples are ruthlessly blacklisting the nation's favourite party anthems from their big days. A shocking analysis of playlist requests shows that legendary floor-fillers are being banished to the 'Do Not Play' list. Modern couples are ordering DJs to completely snub overplayed staples like 'Uptown Funk' and 'Mr Brightside'. But Brits are not turning their backs on the dancefloor. Instead of relying on default reception cheese, millennial newlyweds are demanding authentic club vibes that replicate a proper night out.

Yet for many people across Yorkshire, planning a luxury countryside break has traditionally meant heading north to the Yorkshire Dales, the North York Moors or even further afield. Now, one Peak District hotel believes more people are beginning to look in the opposite direction. Losehill House, an independently owned boutique hotel nestled in its own secluded valley near Hope, says it is welcoming growing numbers of guests from across Yorkshire who are choosing shorter countryside breaks.
