Wedding Inspirations - Hardcover

Choosing and co-ordinating the many elements of a wedding - the dress, flowers, favours, cake, candles, table settings and so on - so that they add up to a harmonious whole is the opportunity of a lifetime, and should be fun. However, the task of planning such an important event, and getting the look just right, can be as daunting as it is exciting. Wedding Inspirations starts with the planning stage, explaining how inspiration can be drawn from many sources. Different themes are showcased, with moods ranging from romantic to modern, from formal to laid back. There follow hundreds of ideas for table settings, flowers, buttonholes, favours, cakes and candles, bringing beautiful styling within the reach of every bride and groom.
