And, lastly . . . Did you give your big day an unusual twist?
One of the UK's top bridal magazines is looking for case studies of women who went for something a bit unusual with their wedding plans/gave their big day a personal touch. Maybe you opted for an usual dress (a bright colour, a short skirt or a vintage revival), maybe you chose an unusual venue, or even opted for an out of the ordinary mode of transport to 'get you to the chapel on time' (tuk tuks, tractors, or routemaster buses). They'd love to hear about your inspired ideas to give other brides-to-be hints on how to make their day stand out from the norm. You will just need to be available for a short phone chat and happy to share some photos of your big day. Please email jessicapowell.freelance{at}gmail{dot}com with your personal details, a bit about what made your day unusual, a contact number and some snaps from the day.
