Renew your Wedding Vows
 To recapture your wedding day, or celebrate a special anniversary by renewing your vows, can be romantic, magical, exciting and fun to do. You can renew your vows whenever you want and there is no limit on how many times you do so.
Whether you have been married for only one or twenty-five years, renewing your vows is a gesture of love and commitment to your partner. Perhaps you have just had a baby and would like to renew your vows with your little person present? Perhaps your children have just left home and it's now time to focus on each other - what better way of starting the new chapter in your life than renewing your vows.

Wedding Ring Profile
 Last edition we looked at your options when it came to choosing the wedding ring metal used. Now it's time to consider the more subtle details of the ring structure – the profile, width and depth of the ring.
The folks at Wedding Rings Direct were once again at hand to help.
The profile you choose is largely a matter of personal taste, although you will find that the shape of your fingers will make some profiles more comfortable than others. It is important to get this right as wearing an item of jewellery everyday for the rest of your life requires a reasonable level of comfort!.

Dundas Castle Wedding
Built in 1818 by Scottish architect, William Burn, Dundas Castle, with its 1,000 acre grounds, offers you the wonderful opportunity to feel like the Lord and Lady of your very own castle on your wedding day.
For the duration of your wedding the castle will have no other visitors, making it an ideal and serene place for you and your guests to celebrate one of the happiest days of your lives.

Niagra Falls Honeymoon
Since the 17th century visitors have been flocking to see the rushing torrents of the Niagara River and the spectacular waterfalls on both the American and Canadian side.
To spend your honeymoon in either of these countries will give you breathtaking and magnificent views of all three falls. You will find yourself within a few feet of the raging water as it rushes past you at speeds of up to 600,000 gallons per second while plummeting 2,600 feet to the river below.
Read here for more information about having your honeymoon at Niagra Falls.
Your Wedding - Your Story
In this edition we feature the wedding of Ness and Phil, married on the 8th March 2008.
An epic tale of love, romance, talking, butterflies, elephants, more talking, melting hearts, laughter, goosebumps, gale force winds, plenty of fancy dress, including two huge salmon dressed in cucumber... oh, and a bit more talking from Ness.
You can read all about Ness' wedding here.

Tip of the Issue
Disposable Cameras - Make sure you tell your guests to turn the flash on if using them indoors - if you don't most photos will come out really dark!
Thanks to Ness for that Top Tip :)
