Click below to see this episode in which the team decides on Martine's dress. Although our bride gets to try on the dresses, she is blindfold as she mustn't see the team's choice until the big day.

Three Grand Weddings
Well I hope everyone is enjoying 2010 so far - new year resolutions still in place?
The weather certainly isn't helping, however I hope I may be able to warm your Monday evenings for a while and even give you a giggle or two....
I was involved last year in filming a series with Wedding TV in which as a team (couple's friends and family and me) we were given just £3,000 to plan and create a wedding for Martine and JonJo. It was a competition, so two other planners and teams were also involved.
It starts Monday 11th January at 9:00pm on Sky 266 and FreeSat 400.
Sit back with a glass of vino and have a chuckle.

Toastmasters
One of the questions clients often ask me is whether or not they should employ a toastmaster.
This is a very personal thing and depends a great deal on the individual couple, the style of wedding and of course the particular toastmaster involved.
Personally I enjoy working with good toastmasters. Although I often act as MC myself for clients, I much prefer the sound of a deeper voice commanding guests' attention. It also means I can be busy with other duties, such as preparing the couple for their entrance into the wedding breakfast or helping a navigationally embarrassed band member with directions to the venue, whilst announcements are being made.
Some couples don't like the idea of the red jacket and others fear an over formal affair, but it is important to know that a good toastmaster will work with the clients to establish the level of formality appropriate, as well as keeping a check throughout the day itself on what is required. Many are also quite happy to wear black tie if this fits the occassion better.
