Brides Hair Styles
 When your wedding day arrives, regardless of what colour or length your hair normally is, you will want to make it look like it’s never looked before. Deciding on which style you really want may take more planning than you think.
You may want to have a style that involves having longer hair than you have now, or maybe shorter, or maybe you want a tiara or other decoration. Maybe you fancy a different colour but are not sure which. All of these need careful consideration and preparation - leave dying your hair to the night before and you had better be prepared for getting married with orange hair!

Alternatives to Brides Bouquet
 The Bridal Bouquet is a focal point for any bride, especially when walking down the aisle just before the ceremony and again when the bouquet is thrown over the shoulder just after the ceremony.
The traditional brides bouquet of flowers, has, over the years seen such items as pearls, diamantes, feathers and twigs added to produce some stunning arrangements for the bride to carry down the aisle.

Bouquets are among the traditional aspects that are constantly evolving.

Hen Party - Rented Cottage
If your hen party is going to be held in the early spring or during the cold winter months the ideal location for you to hold one could be in a rented cottage where you and your hens can enjoy some quiet cosy times to relax after all the planning of your wedding day.
Imagine a country cottage with a roaring log fire tucked away in your own grounds where nobody can bother you among the serene settings of flowering daffodils and tulips or feathery light dustings of snow and frost all around.

Princess Ann
 In a dark emergency November, a touch of summer for a young Princess.
Thirty-five year ago Princess Ann made this wedding vow “I obey.” How many of us would make such a vow today? We’re more relaxed, still conventional with our love of white wedding dresses and multiple-tiered wedding cakes but we’ve come a long way. Now weddings are fun and less stuffy.
Which conventions will you keep for your wedding and which will you break? Here’s an interesting snippet from that cold November day when the economy wasn’t doing too well.
