September/October 2009 The Good Wedding Guide 3
so the diamond ring is on your finger, and you are excited about the show of public commitment you are about to make.
The easy part is done, but then reality sets in. The wedding needs planning,
and here is when you might panic, but should not. The Good Wedding
Guide is your answer to your concerns. This is most definately your ‘Bridal
Survival Guide’.
It is not difficult to plan a wedding - it just takes lots of motivation and
organisation. Start at least six months ahead, and share the responsibility
between the bride and groom to reduce the stress. This issue offers a step by
step guide to your perfect day.
Our Sep/Oct issue is packed with ideas for the special day — the menu,
picking the people and outfits for the bridal party, flowers, photographer,
band, wedding cake and invitation stationery.
Use our recommendations where possible, or
enquire from lists of local suppliers in your area.
We take great pride in this issues celebrity
feature-Vivienne Westwood. We look at her top
5 Bridal Gown collection, following the success
of the Carrie wedding dress as seen on TV’s Sex
in the City. Don’t miss it!
Finally, this issue helps you make sure that you
finalise your plans with all the vendors well in
advance of your wedding day. Enjoy!
