Short Wedding Dresses

Lloyd January 13th, 2010

Now here’s an invaluable online tool for any bride who’s struggling with her choice of wedding dress. The Short Wedding Dresses Planner will let you try out a selection of different dresses then see how they look with different accessories including shoes, veil and jewellery. You can even take a look at your finished wedding day look with different hairstyles! How good is that?


You start off with the empty template (below) and then drag and drop the various elements into place until you have designed your ideal wedding day outfit.

The next image shows one I prepared earlier. As you will see, my outfit encapsulates the very essence of a post-modern, academic woman whilst retaining an air of sexuality and mystery. A bridal style that is one part Germaine Greer, two parts Dita Von Teese.

iPhone App for the Wedding Planner

If you’re a wedding planner and you have an iPhone then this App is a ‘must have’.

Wedding Dash is a great way to hone your planning skills whilst travelling in a taxi to the next wedding venue or bridal dress fitting. Since I downloaded it from iTunes I haven’t stopped playing with it and I’m not even a wedding planner!


By helping our put upon planner, Quinn, to organise her friends wedding and deal with the guests, you collect points which add up to, er, well, a lot of points.


I’m still learning using the ‘lite’ version but I have already got up to a score of 1200 which, according to the App, practically makes me a member of UKAWP!

Is your wedding venue snowbound?

Lloyd January 8th, 2010

Here’s a simple way to check all the UK wedding venues at a glance. For instance, I can see that the Orangery in Holland Park, The Lansdowne Club, Great Fosters and The RAC Club have all had some snow fall…..

Oh, and Leeds Castle isn’t looking too clever, either.
