TELL US ABOUT YOUR<br />
COVER MODEL EXPERIENCE.<br />
Christ<strong>in</strong>a: It was amaz<strong>in</strong>g! I felt like a bride for the<br />
first time s<strong>in</strong>ce be<strong>in</strong>g engaged <strong>and</strong> everyone on<br />
the magaz<strong>in</strong>e <strong>and</strong> glam team made me feel special<br />
<strong>and</strong> well taken c<strong>are</strong> of. <strong>The</strong>y pampered me! I felt<br />
like a celebrity for the day! I loved wear<strong>in</strong>g <strong>all</strong> the<br />
different wedd<strong>in</strong>g dresses, different hairstyles <strong>and</strong><br />
makeup! All the flowers <strong>and</strong> styled backdrops<br />
designed by different vendors were beautiful. It<br />
was a long day <strong>and</strong> I was exhausted when I got<br />
home, but it was so worth it—I had the best time!<br />
IF YOU COULD OFFER ANY ADVICE TO<br />
ENGAGED COUPLES, WHAT WOULD IT BE?<br />
Christ<strong>in</strong>a: Book your vendors early <strong>and</strong> utilize<br />
<strong>Real</strong> <strong><strong>Wedd<strong>in</strong>g</strong>s</strong> <strong>Magaz<strong>in</strong>e</strong>’s <strong>The</strong> Plann<strong>in</strong>g Guide<br />
timel<strong>in</strong>e to keep you on track for what to be<br />
work<strong>in</strong>g on next. It’s a great way to see what you<br />
have accomplished so far <strong>and</strong> also to see what still<br />
needs to be completed. <strong>The</strong>re <strong>are</strong> a lot of details<br />
that go <strong>in</strong>to plann<strong>in</strong>g a wedd<strong>in</strong>g, but just keep<br />
chipp<strong>in</strong>g away at each item on the list so you don’t<br />
get overwhelmed. Enjoy the process, it’s supposed<br />
to be fun! OO<br />
