It’s His Wedding, Too
“Just show up.”
There was a time when this was the extent of a groom’s responsibility, when the planners were all women; brides and mothers-of-the-bride whose simple advice to the groom was to be there on time, clean and sober. Watch a few black and white movies and you’ll see what I am talking about. Art, imitating life in the old days, drives the point home. Grooms were secondary to wedding planning or even to the wedding itself. It was all about the beautiful bride and though the groom alw...
GENTLEMEN, IT’S THE MOST IMPORTANT OUTFIT YOU WILL EVER WEAR
In front of your friends and family, awaiting your bride – the woman with whom you’ve chosen to spend the rest of your life – you stand. And wait. Impatiently, you strain for the first glance, the picture that will paint a thousand words for many years to come. Feeling naked and exposed, you become aware of the emotion welling up inside, that and the nervous twitch, which has suddenly appeared. Your friends and family study and evaluate your every movement. All eyes are on you. After all, you...

Royal Intrigue
Isn’t it fascinating how we’re so captivated by the British royal family? Queen Elizabeth has stolen the hearts of people from around the world, and adoration was Princess Diana’s constant companion. Many of us are as far as obsessed, swooning over the Royals’ every event and activity.
Thirty-seven million people in 180 countries watched a live broadcast of Prince William’s marriage to Kate Middleton in 2011. Prince Harry and American-born actress Meghan Markle’s wedding this spring promises ...
Preserving the essence of love
Planning a wedding is the easy part. Yes, there are hundreds of little details to which you must attend; the dress, flowers, venue, choosing a wedding party, etc. All are very important, but nothing is more essential than remembering to preserve the essence of your love, which is not always easy.
Couples are quite taken with one another in the days leading up to the engagement. It is exciting and scary at the same time, not knowing how things will turn out. You wonder; “Is he the one” and “Wi...

What Every Bride Has in Common with Meghan Markle
Posted at 11:08h in Engagement Stories, Featured, LoveWork, News, Real Weddings, Relationships,
You’ve seen one bride, you’ve seen them all, said no one ever.
Like the purity of snowflakes, no two brides are exactly alike, but there are similarities, even with bride-to-be and soon-to-be princess Meghan Markle, who is to marry Great Britain’s Prince Harry, this May.
Regardless of life-station, brides balance an immeasurable number of ideas and responsibilities, all while planning their wedding...
Two Families as One
Posted at 00:19h in Family & Friends, Featured, News, Real Weddings, Relationships, The Bride,
Two go in, but only one comes out.
Sounds rather scary, doesn’t it? It is after all, the way a number of horror movies begin, but getting hitched is a different kind of scary. It’s that roller coaster fear, the kind of scary that we like. There are exciting twists, turns, highs and lows. It’s a butterflies-in-the-stomach kind of fear when two people pledge their lives to one another and become one f...
Choosing a Maid of Honour
Posted at 16:02h in Featured, News, Real Weddings, Relationships, The Bride, Wedding Essentials
The title says it all. Standing next to the bride on her wedding day is an honoured position, perhaps even a coveted one. A bride may choose multiple bridesmaids, but traditionally the bridal party only has one maid of honour. Often her attire is slightly different to that of the bridesmaid’s, and her entrance into the church heralds that the bride is coming.
During the wedding ceremony, guests mig...
When Westminster Abbey Isn’t Available
Actress Meghan Markle won’t have a problem booking a venue for her upcoming nuptial to Prince Harry. Unlike the late Princess Diana, who famously graced Westminster Abbey’s hallowed halls and sanctuary, Great Britain’s future princess will take a walk down the center aisle of St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle. For a royal bride, the choice of venues is easily made. The rest of us should be so lucky.
The venue sets a wedding’s overall tone.
Wishing to choose a venue that is just right, cou...

The Wedding Planner

In the days and weeks leading up to her wedding, a bride will find that her wedding planner is her new best friend. A powerful resource for any bride, an experienced planner is especially aware of two things: No two brides are alike and the customer is always right (at least most of the time). A very good weddin...
