The groom opted to dress in a dark blue suit by Anderson & Sheppard finished off with a contrasting shirt and tie.

Planning your wedding is no walk in the park, but in choosing the right Bridesmaids they will give you the extra support and advice you need at each stage, from selecting the perfect wedding dress to assisting you with your bridal wear on the big day. It’s a special and treasured job for any family or friend member of the bride, therefore it is important you choose carefully and wisely without upsetting anyone whom has been influential in your life. Read on for further suggestions of what you should take into consideration.

• Think about the type of wedding you are having before selecting the number of attendants you are having. Large formal weddings usually have large bridal parties, whilst smaller intimate ceremonies tend to have a smaller party. The more bridesmaids you have the more complicated it can become. From the selecting the dresses, to the hen night and not forgetting the cost implications.
• Take into consideration their personalities. Do you want your bossy or high maintenance friend ordering you about? Or a friend who is vain and will be more concerned about how she looks than yourself? Some ladies may be more trouble than it’s worth. They should be fun, supportive you and love you unconditionally.
• Your bridesmaids should have good taste. When shopping for wedding dresses you want someone who is honest and truthful, you don’t want to be opting for the wedding gown they loathe. They should also know how to organise a great party, essential when planning your successful hen party.
• You need a friend who can keep you calm and serene in any situation. During the build up to the big day and possibly on the day itself there may be problems that pop up and it’s your bridesmaids role to help ease any issues and help you to relax.
• If you are opting to have younger attendants or small children attending your wedding then at least one of your adult bridesmaids should be able to get down to their level and help keep them happy.
• Do remember you bridesmaids don’t have to be female. If you have a best friend who is male then he can simply be your bridesman and your groom can always have a groomswoman.
• There is no rule to say you can’t have two chief bridesmaids, just as your groom may choose to have more than one best man.
• Remember it’s ultimately your decision who your bridesmaids are, don’t be afraid of hurting someone’s feelings as a true friend will respect your choice.
• Being a bridesmaid is a big responsibility so don’t be too disheartened should someone turn down your offer. For some being the centre of attention and the pressures is too overwhelming. Some friends may be happy to help you out with tasks behind the scenes.

Once you’ve chosen those special ladies it’s time to begin the wedding gown hunt. For the best selection of cheap wedding dresses then look no further than our huge collection at the Wedding Dress Factory Outlet.

Now you have found your perfect wedding gown from our collection of designer discount wedding dresses at the Wedding Dress Factory Outlet in Leicestershire it’s time to think about the accessories to go with it. One of the first things that springs to a bride’s mind is what to wear on her head. There are lots of options to consider from full on dazzling crowns to bun rings to single stone hair gems. When choosing it is vital to remember that the shape of your face and how you will be wearing your hair is more important than your style and colour of your wedding dress.

Your tiara or chosen headpiece should compliment and frame your face, choosing the wrong style could result in having the opposite effect. If you have a rounded face shape and want to make your face to appear longer then opt for a tiara with height or a peak. Longer faced brides suit headband styles or a tiara with very little height or one that extends right the way over your head at the same height. Ladies with oval faces should avoid peaks which would make your face look longer. By wearing a headband, back piece or a forehead piece will make your face look less oval. Peaked tiaras work well on fuller face brides as they give an illusion of a longer face.

If you have a good idea of how you wish to wear your hair on your wedding day it will be of a great assistance when choosing your headpiece. Whatever you choose your hairdresser will have great fun working out what hairstyles work best with it. The stones and gems in your headpiece should match any twinkle that you have in your wedding gown. For example, if you have pearls on your dress then go for a tiara with some pearls, if you have embroidered flowers on your bodice and train then look for a tiara with some floral detailing. If you are having a modern dress then a more contemporary tiara would work well, whereas if you have selected an antique dress then a vintage headpiece would be more appropriate.

For many brides to be wearing a tiara or headpiece transforms them from a woman wearing a stunning dress into a beautiful bride in her wedding gown. Your accessories should work in harmony with your dress and should compliment it,not overpower it.

We all like to save money where we can and when your getting married it’s no exception. From searching for your perfect wedding dress to  finding your dream honeymoon there is a lot of careful planning and preparation to ensure your day is what you have always envisaged. We have compiled some money saving wedding tips to help you keep as much cash in your back pocket whilst ensuring you still have a great day.

• Save money on postage costs – do you really need to spend money on those save the date cards and all the stamps for them too? Why not send out an email to all your guests or set up a page dedicated to your wedding via a social networking site or similar.
• Consider making your wedding bouquets and buttonholes for the wedding party. Grow your own at home or get down to a flower market. Practice beforehand to make sure you will end up with the results on your wedding day.
• Keep your venue decorations down to a minimum. Less is more, a simple candle centrepiece or a rose in a slim vase looks just as dramatic as enormous flower centre pieces. Consider items that you can reuse or sell on to other brides.
• Saves money and trees by not buying glossy wedding magazines. They are published online and you can find a whole host of advice and information on the web.
• Why not ask your bridesmaids to choose their own dress and pay for it themselves. All you need to do is advise them on the colour required. It is then something they love and will wear again. Cheap matching accessories for all of your maids can finish off the look.
• Go to factory outlets for your wedding gown. The Wedding Dress Factory Outlet in Leicestershire has over 700 designer discount wedding dresses to choose from at amazing prices from £150 to £400.
• Ask for help from family and friends. If someone is a dab hand at photography then why not entrust them to do your wedding photos or if someone is a good cook they might like to do your reception buffet food with the help of some other well trusted guests.
• Save money on your honeymoon by opting for a working holiday such as the expeditions organised by many charities. Alternatively you could ask for honeymoon vouchers and donations.
• Gain back some of your expenses by creating a wedding gift list where people contribute towards something for your future together. This could be anything from having a new kitchen or bathroom to your garden being landscaped.
• Opt for Prosecco or Cava rather than Champagne, both of which are made in a similar way but usually half the price or less than a bottle of champers. Many people find them easier to drink too.
