Buying Your Dress Online
It is possible for a bride-to-be to know instantly the right dress for her just by looking at a picture on the screen of her computer.
No trawling round bridal shops to try on endless dresses and no humming and arring about what style of dress suits you or makes you look too heavy or too slim.
If this sounds like you then purchasing your dress online could be the option for you. Buying your dress should be a momentous occasion in your life and it could be the most expensive item you ever buy.

Measurements for Groom
The groom is just as an important figure in a wedding as the bride-to-be, well maybe not in the bride's eyes but still, he is and therefore he needs to feel just as comfortable and look just as fabulous as the bride will.
In order to achieve this, he must be dressed in a good fitting outfit.
Once you have decided on the theme of your wedding then it is vital that you, the groom, organise your wedding attire. It does not have to be months and months in advance of the wedding date as for the bride but there should be plenty of time to pick an outfit, have any alterations made that need doing and enough time for perhaps a final fitting nearer the wedding allowing for a little time in case further adjustments need to be made. It is not only the bride that can lose or put weight on before the big day!

Wedding Colour Scheme
Once the decision has been made to get married, the theme and colours that go along with the wedding are very important to any couple.
There are many reasons why they might want to choose a particular colour to work with and it is not a decision to be taken lightly.
Whatever colour you decide on will set the whole tone for your special day. The colour or shades will be included in almost every aspect from the bride's dress, the groom's waistcoat and tie, the car, the cake, the favours, the invitations, the table decorations and of course your flowers and buttonholes.

Decorate Your Wedding Car
To add another talking point to your wedding, why not consider having your wedding car decorated to show everyone that you have just tied the knot!
For some weddings, this may not be possible but if you have the chance to, and have permission from the owner to modify the car slightly, then why shouldn’t you bring your own personal touch to your wedding transport.
Usually the bride and groom are not involved in decorating the car. Many years ago this would have been done as a prank by the groomsmen, mainly the best man, in order to embarrass the young couple who have no option but to get in the car as it would be their last means of transport. Nowadays there is no reason why the newlyweds can't have a say in what goes on the car.

Hen Party in Budapest
If you want your hen party weekend to be a trip abroad that is filled with luxury, culture and beauty then why not try the capital and largest city in Hungary.
Budapest is approximately two hundred square miles and has a population of over three million people. With the Danube running through the city it is considered to be beautiful if not one of the most stunning cities in Europe and the twenty million visitors that visit the city every year would probably agree.
Budapest is home to the second oldest underground railway in Europe as well as the largest thermal water cave system in the world. With other wonderful natural features such as the geothermal springs, the Museums within the locality and its night-life it is no wonder that Budapest is regarded as the liveliest city in Central Europe.

Your Wedding, Your Story
Daisy and Cory
Friday the 4th of September.
I hope you all have a cup of tea to hand ... Or a glass of wine lol !!
The Friday morning I got up and got my wee boy ready for school, he was bouncing about laughing, and so excited that his mummy and daddy were getting married the following day, and he’d be wearing a very smart suit, just like his daddy.
I was feeling a lot better now I’d managed to talk him out of wearing a pretty dress, just like mummy’s (lmao). My OH had taken the Friday off work too, as he had a few bits of running about to do. He took wee man to school whilst I went and had my nails done.
