February is upon us and it has prompted our thoughts turn to wedding trends and ideas for 2013. <br /><br />Now this may be somewhat controversial given the society we live in, our love of good drama and the popularity of some TV shows, but it is our belief (The Wedding Gurus) that <br /><br /><div align="center" style="text-align: center;"><br />‘Bridezilla’ is well and truly OUT!</div><br /><br />Being a bride has always carried with it a certain elegance and beauty that those of us who have not been lucky enough to walk down the aisle can only dream of experiencing.<br /><br />We imagine ourselves moving graciously down the flower adorned aisle or pathway to join our handsome waiting groom as all our guests and loved ones look on in awe and shed a tear in response to the heart warming exchange between the man and his soon to be bride - the love of his life.<br /><br />With this in mind, how then did it ever become fashionable to transform into what we know as 'Bridezilla'? <br /><br />The word itself brings to mind a horrific picture: A bride in a huge flouncy dress screaming and frothing at the mouth as others try desperately to tame and calm her outbursts. Is it really ever pleasant to have people see us this way on what should be our time to really shine?<br /><br />Lets be real. Do you honestly want to be seen as an out of control, screaming, nasty bride to be, so feared by not only your bridesmaids, but also your friends and family that by the time the big day arrives they would much rather suffocate you than be part of your special day?<br /><br /><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Or</i> do you want to aspire to the persona of someone like Princess Kate Middleton who showed courtesy and good manners to all those around her and pulled it all off with such elegance and class?<br /><br />We want to convince every one of you to aspire to be a gorgeous and glowing bride, one that is calm, in control and who leaves every person in the room thinking what a perfect choice the groom has made. <br /><br />Let the single ladies wish they were you and the single men wish they had found you first. Let the elderly people comment on your manners and decorum, while the married women wish they had been so gracious on their wedding day. Let your parents burst with pride at what a great job they have done and your in-laws feel grateful for the daughter they are gaining. Let your bridesmaids feel excited and priveledged to have such a great friend and to have had an absolutely fabulous time helping you with this wedding. But most of all ,let your groom feel that he is absolutely the luckiest man alive to be the one standing beside you.<br /><br />So......ditch that old Bridezilla (its so 2012) and find your inner Bridecess. Your friends, family, bridesmaids and soon to be husband will all thank you for it. <br /><br /><br />We’ve put together a few ways that we think you can achieve the true title of ‘Bridecess’<br /><br />1. Accept the fact that things will go wrong, they always do but it is the way you react to it that will determine whether it complete ruins your wedding or is remembered as merely a road bump on the way to a perfect day.<br /><br />2. Surround yourself with loving and supportive people who will be there to help you and remind you of the real meaning of the day.<br /><br />3. Be organised, plan and work out every detail so that nothing can pop up and stress you out. <br /><br />4. Scheduling 'you' time that does not involve wedding planning and is relaxing and uplifting.<br /><br />5. Throw out all the old sayings you have heard –<br />"You cant please them all so just please yourself", <br />"You can pick your friends but you cant pick your relatives".<br />“Weddings are as stressful as a death in the family" <br />All of these statements carry some degree of truth, but if you approach wedding planning in this negative frame of mind you will feel nothing but stress and anxiety. Of course you have to think about your guests and wedding party, it’s primarily your day but they are all playing a part and deserve to enjoy it too.<br /><br />6. Lastly but most importantly don’t forget that you are a couple and this is supposed to be the happiest day of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">both </i>of your lives. Imagine how it feels to be a groom about to marry his true love only to see her go from being his princess to a total out of control train wreck. <br /><br />Do you want your tantrums, tears and bad behaviour to be etched in the memories of your guests when they recall your wedding day or do want them to be using you as their example when they begin planning their day?<br /><br />The Wedding Gurus<br />xxx
