"It Will Be the Best Day or Your Life... ...or the Most Embarrassing!" As a bride-to-be you want a wedding day that is both special and memorable. You've been waiting for this all your life and it needs to be perfect. If you've been planning your wedding and wondered what was missing, this book has the answer! I want you think back to when you were a little girl. Do you remember looking at photographs from your grandmother's wedding? Perhaps some really old photographs from her mother's wedding? What were these weddings like? Were they simple? Formal? Regardless of the "style" of wedding, I can tell you something that weddings from this time did have... Elegance. If you look at photographs of most modern weddings, you may see expensive gowns or fancy locations, but you don't see the elegance. That's something you can't buy. Elegance is free. This book will help you to bring back the elegance and sophistication of weddings of the past. Mixing these classic wedding elements with the modern aspects of current weddings will enable you to create a one-of-a-kind event that will leave guests talking for years and be a monument to the love you feel for your soon-to-be husband. Eleanor Kennedy has been a wedding planner for over 40 years and successfully organized thousands of wedding and special events. She lives with her husband in La Jolla, California.
