Yep, bought most of these in the first 2 weeks! |
I don't think it's unreasonable to say that most brides will buy at least one wedding/bridal magazine before the big day, so are they vital in the planning process?
The most honest answer I can give to that question, really, is no. However, before you put your hard earned money away here's a few things to consider...
As I said earlier, I am magazine obsessed and always have been. There has always been something I have found incredibly alluring about flicking through pretty much anything with glossy pages. So for me that really is appeal number one! ha ha ha
There are magazines specific to where you are planning to get married |
Now there are some great online resources out there, and I will definitely go into that another day, but you don't feel as though you are hunting for information in a magazine. You can simply flick and easily pick and choose the parts that you find interesting or relevant to you and your partner's ideas.
Most magazines come with extra themed "mini-mags" |
Like any fashion magazine there are a lot of beauty tips and reviews, along with style guides for bridesmaids, mothers of the bride, grooms and any other member of your bridal party. Plus there are some amazing honeymoon recommendations!
For any of you that are thinking of creating a wedding scrapbook,
magazines are the prefect way to cut and paste any inspirational pictures you find plus all the great recommendations for venues/caterers/florists/etc.
Usually you get a pull out wedding planner! |
Ultimately it does come down to personal taste, but if you are a soon to be bride, whilst the internet has just about anything and everything you could ever think of, magazines are a nice way of escaping and fantasising about your dream day whatever your budget may be!
Thank you so much!! xx
