Can I tell you I am the luckiest Bride in the World!
(
If my fiance reads this it is because I am marrying him and I love him dearly)
But aside from that, it is because I have a "Carlee" and if you are planning a wedding you should get yourself a "Carlee"…

Your poor partner, not only do they get the nerves and jitters about the actual proposal but prior to that they have the awesome and terrifying decision about choosing an engagement ring!
Is it no wonder the tradition is changing, now most people buy a small simple ring to use for the proposal and then the ring shopping is done together.
There are a lot of things to understand when considering…

I don't mean to get too personal but what are you wearing under your dress?
I've never really understood the point of forking out hundreds on shoes for a wedding if they are hidden under a big princess or long flowing dress.
Nor is it a good idea to have heels if you have the Kidman / Cruise thing going on.
The solution - flip flops!…

On
NXFM this afternoon there was a kicker story about how the GFC has not effected the amount of money couples are spending on their wedding. Averaging out at $32,000 (which contradicts a previous
Herald article) for the whole kit and kaboodle the focus is always on the Brides and Grooms who spend lavish amounts on their big…

At a boozy work dinner on Thursday night a girlfriend made a comment about weddings she had been to where she had felt like she was watching a play.
I had to give this some serious thought and realised that in my 30 years I had been to a few performance weddings myself. The kind of wedding where you, a guest, seem to spend ample hours standing around watching things happen.
But Kez, I…

In a perfect world all the guests at your wedding would get along enough to be able to be seated next to each other for an entire meal. In this perfect world you would easily drop those unwanted kilos just minutes before trying on your dream dress, and would not be overcharged when you mention purchasing anything for a wedding.
Oh, if only life were so perfect.
Truth is,…

Walking into a bridal shop or dress makers may be confusing if they start throwing terms around that you have never heard off. If you don't know your Basque waist from your Ballgown the below will clear out the confusion and make dress shopping a dream..
A-line
A fitted bodice that flares out to the hem. Narrower at the top, flaring gently wider toward the…

Weddings are expensive, any couple knows that regardless of what decade they got married. If you compare the average wedding in 2004 was $28,700 to the what no seems outrageous $50,000 in 2009 you can see what a healthy industry weddings are.
But mine, is not to question whether $50,000 is an astronomical amount. If we, as a society, are guilty of promoting the "wedding" over the…

The short answer is - no but again, there are always exceptions to the rule.
Wedding planning software is just a packaged version of the tools already available on your own computer at home. The software ranges in price from $50 to $500 dollars and there are as many good versions as their are rip-offs. Like with most software available on the internet -unless it comes from a…

Getting married should be a celebration of the couple, your likes, your passion and your taste.
I've never understood why when two Vegans get married they still serve the traditional chicken and beef meals. Surely, the non-vegans guests can cope with some well made vegan meals?
I love hearing stories about couples that have injected their own personality into their ceremony and…

You only need to glance at a wedding forum to hear horror stories about marriage celebrants.
"He turned up 50 mins late..." and "She forgot our names half way through the ceremony" or even just a simple "They didn't do what we asked…

In what has to be one of the coolest "quirks" to a wedding reception Wedbykez has found the latest craze in the US. Photo booths!
Not to replace your wedding photographer (who's job it is to make you look amazing) the photo booth is set up in the corner of your dance floor and guests are invited to jump in and take as many happy snaps as the can.
Rather than have disposable cameras on the table you get a fun, talked about reception that people will remember…

Nowhere near as fun as Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughan crashing your reception is a nasty case of Post-Wedding Depression that can affect brides after their big day.
There are numerous reasons why a bride or groom might fall crash after their big day.
The Wedding Dump
As I have affectionately named it due to its similarity to the post-superman ride at Movie World feeling. Just like a scary rollercoaster the months and days leading up to your wedding are all go,…

I recently noticed on a friends facebook a comment about the expense she was paying to be a bridesmaid in a wedding.
The bride was obviously wanting a particular dress that cost $495 dollars US ($586.70 AUD). Now I don’t know about most people but $500 + on a dress is not something I would normally consider unless a) The Dress made me look like Angelina Jolie or b) it was the most important day…
