Everyone loves a wedding, or so they say. The truth is,
though, that planning the bid day can be a stressful time
for the bride and groom - not to mention their
immediate families!
That8217s why Yorkshire Today publishes this handy wedding
guide 8211 after all you8217ve only got one chance to get this right
(we hope!).
In the not so distant past, a wedding would have been a
fairly simple procedure 8211 a church ceremony followed by a
reception at the house of one of the couples8217 parents,
who would no doubt have paid for the whole thing.
Nowadays, things are very different.
Generally, couples are getting married later in life 8211
the average age of a bride and groom is around 30. As
a result couples often have more ideas on what they8217d
like to see on their big day and, hopefully, more
money to spend on it. Just as well, given that the
Church of England report the average cost of a
wedding now exceeds 16316,000.
In this guide, we8217ve brought together some of the
county8217s leading experts to help make your special day
as stress free as possible, so keep this handy pocket-
sized guide in a safe place and your big day will be
memorable for all the right reasons!
One last thing. In all the excitement don8217t forget to
send us your photos of the big day for free inclusion
on our county weddings page in Yorkshire Today 8211 the
region8217s favourite county magazine.Steve FisherEditorEditor:
