Our New Issue

News Flash! The November/December issue hit the newsstands a couple of weeks ago, and in case you haven’t yet seen it, be sure to pick up a copy.

The issue is chock full of fantastic ideas for your wedding—you’ll find everything you need from gorgeous gowns to the perfect honeymoon destination. In one of my favorite features “Taming The Big Bad Budget,” you’ll discover invaluable tips on how to plan a beautiful wedding without spending a fortune. Now doesn’t that sound intriguing?

We also know how overwhelming wedding planning can be (hmmm, who should be on the guest list, how many bridesmaids should I have, when do I send out invitations) so we put together “The A to Z Planning Guide” and a “Countdown Calendar”. Trust me, you will be so glad to have all the details spelled out for you.

If you’re still dress shopping, take a look at the incredible fashions in “Summer of Love” and “Some Like It Hot”:

These amazing dresses were photographed on location in Sanibel Island, Florida, and most are priced under $1,000. Plus, in “Runway Report” you’ll get a look at some knockout gowns that were seen on the runways in New York and Chicago. Honestly, if I were getting married today, I don’t know how I would choose. There are just too many styles that I fall in love with every season!

Another of my favorite features is “Wedding Album” in which we showcase couples’ weddings from all over the country.

These incredible celebrations are filled with ideas that are sure to inspire you. In fact, all of us here at BG love seeing what brides and grooms planned and I’m always amazed at their creativity and ingenious personal touches. The locations, colors, cakes, flowers and menus may differ for each couple but there is one element they all have in common: to have a wedding that’s fun, joyful and memorable for their guests. (If I had been a guest at any of these weddings, I’d say they succeeded!)

Have fun pouring through the issue. Perhaps you’ll find your dream dress, discover your perfect honeymoon spot or simply feel a bit more relaxed knowing that we are always looking out for you with the very best wedding advice. And, if there’s something we haven’t covered in this issue, please let me know. We’re here to help!
