congratulations...
You’ve dreamt of your wedding day since you were a
little girl - the fabulous dress, the handsome groom,
the flowers, the music, the blissful romance of it all. And
now you have organised the handsome groom, it’s time
to get down to the rest of the planning so your wedding
day turns out to be as magical as you always imagined.
However daunting the whole organisation seems at the
outset, this is one celebration everyone wants to be a
spectacular success and you will find good wishes and
friendly faces wherever you turn for help.
Planning your wedding starts here and now and in this
issue of Dream Weddings you will find tips and hints
on every aspect of your big day, from the latest
collections of gowns to transport, from wedding
day etiquette to up-to-date fashions in flowers.
You’ll also find advertisements from a whole army of
local businesses, all with plenty of experience to call
on. They will work with your ideas, offer creative
suggestions of their own and find solutions to
match every budget. They know the
shortcuts and the pitfalls - and they’re fully
aware of how important it is to you that
everything runs smoothly.
So turn the page, start planning your
big day. And enjoy every minute of it!
