You've found the love of your life, and now the excitement of planning what may be the most important day of your life is upon you. During this time of anticipation and expectation, it is easy to become overwhelmed by the multitude of projects involved with planning your wedding.

Well, creating your own wedding cards was not really looked up to back in those days. But, now personalising your wedding is the ‘in' thing that simply means the only-you-have-it-kind of concept. We've expanded this year's April issue with a special wedding section of ‘do-it-yourself' which will help you with ideas on how to personalise your wedding. Creativity is the key! Whether you spend RM30, 000 or RM100, 000 for your wedding, what's important is that it represents who you are in person, and celebrates the love you have for each other. Every bride-to-be will come to terms with adversity as they wed. It all boils down to two things: how to spend the modest amount of money you have and how to address the new changes to your extended family group.

In an eclectic city like Kuala Lumpur , there is never enough time to visit every reception site, flip through every photographer's portfolio or hear every band and DJ. Relax and flip through the pages of Bridal Guide while you get a pedicure or take the train to work. We are here to help you find the perfect components to make your wedding day flow smoothly.

Looking to celebrate your wedding in the style of your culture? In this issue, we feature Penang as the wedding destination. You can have a feel of the 19 th century as it showcases the Peranakan community whose culture is very much influenced by the Malay and the West. You can honour your ancestral roots on your special day and make your wedding fun and interesting for your guests.

Another fantastic way to plan your wedding is to attend the next 5th KL Wedding Expo on 13th - 15th July 2007. Our expo features an array of wedding professionals and services providers. Imagine the opportunity to flip through dozens of portfolios, bridal houses and get beauty tips from a variety of experts all in one day under one roof. Of course, the highlight of the day is always the runway fashion show featuring the latest styles for brides.


Best wishes and have a blissful marriage!
