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?"

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.

Pre-wedding nerves, relationship advice and the secrets to a long, happy marriage

As someone who has coached over 1,300 women into healthy, committed relationships and marriages through my Love Success Framework, I can tell you this: the way you handle wedding planning is often a preview of how you will handle marriage.
