The Bride

1. What type of bride are you? For Better or Worse... Come on be honest!

The Monica - The Organiser. Clipboard , Check. Colour coded spreadsheet , Check. Walkie talkies & headset? Check You are super organised in life and you have planned the wedding with military precision. The planning started before you were even engaged and you’ve put the Maid of Honour out of a job because you’ve already arranged your own hen party. When the wedding day is here remember to deligate, be flexible and not to get too caught up in the finer details and sit back enjoy watching all your hard work become reality

Bridethriller - The life & Soul. Pop the Champagne shes changing her last name! This bride wants to party and looks at her wedding day as a giant celebration with her family and friends. This bride will deliver a fun-filled affair and she is sure to enjoy herself. She’s not overly serious in life and enjoys every moment

Brideschilla -The Zen bride. She’s cool calm and collected at all times, she’s a delight to be around her relaxed vibes & good aura .You surround yourself with love , positive energy and the Universe has delivered your perfect soul mate you are deeply connected. You are too chilled to sweat the small stuff and are joyful for journey to become a bride. You are happy to go with the flow and take time enjoy and live in the present. You want to cherish it all, embrace the day and celebrate great joy happiness & love you truly deserve.

The Princess-The excited Romantic. She will go to the ball which happens to be her own wedding. You have dreamed of this day since childhood and now you have met your Prince Charming , you are enjoying every moment of planning a fairytale wedding and are giddy with excitement. Your friends & family are equally enthusiastic and everyone has enjoyed the process of making your wedding dreams a reality.

Stressy Jessie- The anxious-bride. Every bride experiences the pre-wedding day jitters but yours top the Richter scale. Come the wedding day, try to put your worries to the back of your mind and have a dose of Rescue Remedy on standby or a glass bubbles . Whether tears of joy or tears of stress, just take a deep breath and don't let your emotions get the better of you... and don’t worry our mascara is waterproof.

VOGUE -The fashionista. Oh, and make sure you refer to the aisle as her runway. A trendsetter bride doesn’t follow trends, she sets them! You are beyond chic and panache. Your wedding goals are straight from the pages of Harper’s. And your wedding photos are front cover , Nothing will be Passé for your day! And you have a great eye for the details

Bridezilla- Don’t be that bride! Wedding preparations offers a rollercoaster of emotions, tossing you from giddy highs to sobbing lows but you could win an Oscar for your drama. Just because it’s your wedding day, that does not give you license to terrorise suppliers , waiters, family members or friends. I’m not sure if a hand full of chill pill 'Zantex' counts as your ‘something blue’ but deep breaths and perspective will help. Have faith and trust your glam squad , if you look bad we look bad all your wedding suppliers are on your side .....so be nice
