| Review of Brides magazine. The U.K.'s number one bestselling bridal
magazine. The issue reviewed is the January/February 2010 edition,
which cost £4.80. The magazine promises articles about bridesmaid
makeovers, the 100 best bridal shoes, the newest looks, receptions
and wedding trends for this year. As with all bridal magazines it
has plenty of lovely glossy pages packed with pretty dresses. These
are great for inspiration. This issue came with a free 156 page wedding
planner guide. I found this a very practical guide, it's packed with
little snippets of ideas, was very easy to read and very enjoyable.
It's also a lot smaller than the magazine which meant I could carry
about with me and read it whenever I have five minutes.
The magazine has a useful section called dates for your diary.
This includes the list of bridal events that you really should be
looking out for. It lists the national shows and wedding dress shows.
There are articles about how to feed on your wedding, one includes
hot hues, which features passionate colours that are bold and beautiful,
and how you can incorporate these into your white wedding. With
ideas for everything from flowers, marquee decoration, invitations,
flowers for the table, as well as favours it shows you how you can
really theme wedding so beautifully. These ideas will offer you
inspiration for your own wedding plans.
They have a how-to section about stylish table centres favours
and place names for chocolate themed reception. For those of us
who are chocoholics this is perfect. For chocolate lover the idea
of bringing chocolate into their wedding is a must. Whether you
just include it as a favour, a table decoration or desert it's entirely
up to you. Again some great inspiration for you.
They have the hottest trends are met white hot pages. This features
some great transport ideas including a lovely London was, a fantastic
white taxi or something slightly more traditional like a beautiful
white Rolls-Royce.
They also have some catwalk trends, where the bride's fashion editor
shows you what is going to be really hot this year. Again there
are some absolutely stunning dresses, and they've been separated
out into different styles to make it easier for you to think about
the different ideas.
There is abuse he section 2 with ideas for hair and make up as
long as weight loss. Lots of hair styles included, to give you ideas
on how you might make your own hair looks amazing for your wedding.
There are reviews of boot camps where you can lose weight to which
I found quite an interesting idea. There's a series of makeovers
to, showing brides with their bridesmaids.
There's also a really nice diary of others spoke wedding dress.
And how it took seven seamstresses 300 hours and 100 meters and
Swarovski handsewn crystal chain to make disputable beautiful dress.
If you've been thinking about of the boat dress, then this is a
must read article for you.
The magazine seems to have quite a lot of how-to guides, which
will find really useful when you're planning your wedding. There
are so many little ideas that you will find useful, and you should
be adding all these to your wedding planner book. |
