No

for
you
A
s
I
was
planning
the
stunning
gowns
photoshoot
for
this
issue
of
WM
Bride
&
Home
(see
p13-18),
I
started
thinking:
this
is
a
bit
like
or
ganising
a
wedding!
We
needed
gowns,
jewellery,
shoes,
a
photographer
,
a
venue,
and
wer
e
cr
ossing
our
fingers
for
nice
weather
.
But
re
al
weddings
ar
e
a
lot
trickier
-
after
all,
brides
also
have
to
deal
with
everything
fro
m
car
hir
e
to
catering.
So
I
take
my
hat
of
f
to
all
of
you
who
ar
e
busy
planning
for
your
big
day,
and
I
hope
we
can
help
make
life
a
little
easier
.
Indulge
in
fantasy
with
our
gowns
pages,
take
inspiration
fr
om
our
re
al-life
weddings,
feather
your
lovenest
with
our
new
homes
and
interiors
section,
and
steal
our
ideas
on
everything
fr
om
invitations
to
accessories.
But
most
of
all,
enjoy
this
time
-
or
ganising
a
wedding
should
be
fun!PS:We
h
op
e
y
o

r
fabulous

and

e,
it's

e

we
hav
e
planned
this
year!
