Welcome To Our Newsletter
Here is the 32nd Edition of our newsletter - we start with a look at choosing and applying or removing your lipstick for the big day, followed by choosing and applying (or removing) your wedding night lingerie.
For the Groom a look at choosing the right dress shirt and for a wedding location take a closer view of the Matara Centre in the Cotswolds. For when the wedding is all over we focus on a honeymoon in Barcelona.
We also have the Your Wedding - Your Story reports from Helen and Sarah.
We hope the advice here helps out with your wedding planning.

Wedding Night Lingerie
 What you wear in the day during your wedding is normally chosen for support, shape and above all comfort but your lingerie for evening wear is where the overall look is more important and you endeavour towards that wow factor.
It’s the end to a perfect day when every new bride and groom celebrates their first night of married life in the privacy of their room.
Every bride wants to look and feel extra special on the most important day of her life and the evening is the ‘icing on the cake’ when you get the chance to feel and portray desirability, elegance and sexuality to your new husband, who, has no doubt, been waiting to shower you with intimacies.

Wedding Day Lipstick
 One of the last things we use when applying make-up is lipstick and most of us can feel somewhat undressed if we don’t apply that wonderful streak of colour to our lips before going out the door.
When we pop off to the ladies we always have to check to see if our lipstick is still there and smudge free and of course the inevitable reapplying takes place.
If there is one part of our make-up we want to remain the same as when we first applied it, its lipstick and unless you’re willing to or have the budget to pay out hundreds of pounds on ‘stay-put’ lipsticks there are a few short tips that can help your lipstick to remain longer than normal.

Grooms Dress Shirt
 The basis of a groom’s presentation can be the selection of a dress shirt and the right or wrong choice can determine the formal or casual look of your outfit.
Your chosen dress shirt can also be a way to infuse coordinating colours or a theme of your wedding and give you those polished results you are aiming for on your important day.
Even for a beach style or casual wedding your shirt should still have that quality and dressy appearance and by following the basic rules you will have no difficulty in achieving the overall and appropriate effect all groom’s aim for.

Sarah and Rob
 It all started the day before, most of our guests met at our house ready to travel down with us. When we arrived at Gretna Green everyone was so shocked, it was not what they expected. They all thought it was gorgeous!
Everybody checked into our rooms and that was when Rob and I were told we had been upgraded to the bridal suite, Rob so pleased he shouted YES!. So off we went to take a look - it was gorgeous - they had made sure us and our three children were very comfortable.

Helen and Martin
 The week on the run up to the wedding was lovely, everyone was so good willed.
Martin and I were beginning to really look forward to the wedding and it felt to me like the first few months of being together, where there is that constant feeling of elation and excitement.
On the morning of the wedding I woke up to my alarm at 8.30am feeling strangely calm after having had nerves for the previous few days. I sat and chatted with Martin while my bath was running and it was a happy calm atmosphere.
