Welcome To Our Newsletter
Here is the 46th Edition of our newsletter - our first article is looking at Irish wedding dresses for those that fancy a taste of the Emerald Isle on their wedding day.
Your feet may not be at the forefront of your thoughts leading up to your wedding but you should give some consideration to having a pedicure, especially if you will be taking your shoes off at the end of a long night dancing.
For your wedding reception you may wish to consider a fruit fountain as an alternative to a traditional wedding cake - we look at your options. If you are a groom who carries a bit or weight we have some tips on how you can dress to help shed the pounds - much easier than hitting the gym ;)
Our final article takes a look at the Maldives as a fantastic honeymoon location.
We really do hope the advice here helps out with your wedding planning and if not, please tell us what you want to know about!

Irish Wedding Dress
Every single bride wants their dress to be perfect, the best looking and something that every single one of her guests will take notice of and remember.
For some brides when they consider their dress they picture in their head the most elegant and lavish gowns and these can be represented greatly by the traditional Irish wedding dresses!
These Celtic dresses are popular and are increasingly becoming more attractive to brides who want to add that little bit of elegance to her bridal outfit. The dress designs come from a beautiful country with wonderful rituals that have spanned the generations.

Wedding Day Pedicure
When you hear the word pedicure most people would think of a woman, lazing in a beauty parlour enjoying a wonderful foot massage and pedicure.
But, pedicures can be for men just as much as women and for a bride and groom, particularly those who are being married on a sunny beach in sandals or even shoeless, what better way to complete their wedding ensemble by having their feet and toenails looking as stunning as the rest of them!
For those grooms that need a little persuading to have a pedicure, try to remind them that there is nothing feminine about having one done and how they will enjoy the massage that comes with the pedicure. Perhaps if it's a beach wedding then all the men in your wedding party could have a pedicure so the groom will not feel so odd about having his.

Having a Fruit Fountain
Not all weddings have to have a giant wedding cake, particularly if the bride and groom are not partial to a slice or two themselves.
Perhaps you would prefer to go for a healthier option of a stunning fruit fountain!
With its delicious aroma and flavours, the fruit fountain will definitely be a talking point of your wedding day and will delight your guests with the varieties you can choose from.

Clothes to Make the Groom Look Slim
Even the groom-to-be wants to look great on his wedding day and of course if he can look slimmer then no doubt he would jump at the opportunity.
The following article will hopefully give a few pieces of advice and tips on how the groom can achieve this.
Of course the most obvious answer would be to lose weight before the big day but sometimes that is just not possible. The idea of looking slimmer will appeal to everyone and there are plenty of 'tricks' to help someone do this, whether it involves a single piece of clothing that is fitted to give the impression of slimness or even coordinating your colours can accomplish a similar look.
