That’s the great thing about Essex. Mention the county to one set of people and the image they have is tight white skirts, bling, and outrageously high heels. And nothing wrong with having a good time and showing it. Mention it to another crowd and they will think of its fine countryside dotted with elegant mansions, ancient farms and superior sporting clubs, fine stretches of coast and more history in its towns than you could learn in a lifetime. Nothing wrong with a touch of class and culture either. All this within a short drive of London too. So when you are considering choosing a wedding venue – and our list here is extensive - maybe you’ll decide the only way is one (or more) of the Essexes.
