Introduction
It’s official - tying the knot is good for your heath! Scientists say so. Marriage increases health, wealth and your lifespan by up to three years. "The singleton life is seriously bad for your health and can be almost as bad as smoking," says economist, Professor Andrew Oswald of Warwick University. "Being married inspires you to work harder while boosting the immune system." And according to his research, married people earn between ten and twenty percent more than single or cohabiting couples. So congratulations on a longer, healthier and wealthier life ahead. However, Professor Oswald assumes you’ll survive the wedding planning!
Are you racing around in every direction, on the phone and on-line talking nothing but weddings? Do you find yourself devouring every bridal magazine you can lay your hands on? Are you are faced with seemingly endless choices, lots of ‘advice’ from family and friends, but feel the wedding countdown clock is ticking? Welcome to the world of the newly engaged! You are about to plan probably the biggest and most expensive party of your life. But it’s largely the spontaneous moments that can’t be planned for that will define your day when it comes: all you can do is provide the perfect backdrop. The Wedding Bible will help you to create it. We will not be telling you how to plan your wedding our way, but offering our advice together with dozens of the most respected names in the wedding business. We’ll tell you about all things you need to do when planning your big day, and reveal our top tips on everything else you might choose to arrange. Whether you are planning a small informal gathering, or a large and lavish affair, a bride on a budget or with serious cash to spend, and whether you have six weeks, six months or a year or more to plan your big day, we will ensure you have all the information you’ll need.
Each chapter starts with a brief introduction. The Wedding Bible experts are then introduced and their advice presented in ‘What the Experts Say’. We regularly work with many of those quoted and have sought their advice precisely because we believe them to be among the best in their fields. We have not paid them and they’ve not paid us. It's honest, impartial advice. Take what appeals and reject what doesn’t - but be informed. You must know what to ask and what to expect from everyone involved in your celebration. Handy checklists, top tips, shopping advice and information for the bride on a budget is easily identifiable in coloured text and charts which appear throughout the book. At the end of those chapters where it is relevant, you will find the Wedding Bible’s unique ‘4-phase timeline’. How to use it is explained on pages xx and xx. It’s designed to help you concentrate on key tasks and major decisions efficiently and effectively. We aim to keep you on-track and organized - which is the key to successful and enjoyable wedding planning. Start at chapter one. The rest are self contained and can be read in any order. Some advice is repeated in more than one chapter, this is because, for ease of reference, we have tried to make each one independent. For example, if you are shopping for a wedding gown, all you need to know is in the chapter of that name.


Planning any event requires organizational skills, creativity, an eye for detail and the ability to work to a budget. Few individuals possess all these skills or the time to develop them. But the Wedding Bible will guide and steer you in the right direction ensuring that nothing is left to chance. Whatever size your wedding and how ever much you have to spend we are your guarantee that come the big day, everything will be in place, leaving you free to really enjoy your celebration - not just another wedding, but a special, personal and unique event that is all your own.
