I’m so excited to tell you about our new issue. We cover it all—from dazzling dresses to awesome, sigh-inducing honeymoons (trust me, we all sigh in the office when we see those glorious resort photos!).

 


If you’re still in dress-search mode, then turn to our fashion section where you’ll find lots of fabulous styles, from this kick-up-your heels beauty...

…to this gorgeous, dreamy gown.

We’ll also give you the latest trends in our “Runway Report” as well as perfect accessories, bridesmaid dresses and the season’s chicest bridal shoes.

When it comes to planning details, we’ve got you covered. Our ceremony guide will ensure that this part of the day is uniquely special.

For the reception, you’ll find amazing ideas in our “All About Color” story.

And in “Strictly Ballroom,” some of the nation’s top wedding planners offer advice on how to transform an empty room into a spectacular venue.

Even though most brides have a year or more to plan their wedding, we know that some of you may want to marry in a lot less time. Check out our story, “In Good Time,” for a few pointers on how to get it all done quickly and easily.

And, if you find that you’re really stressed and anxious about having to make so many decisions, relax. Our fabulous contributor and “My Fair Wedding” star David Tutera shares his tips on how to stay self-assured and worry-free.

Of course, it goes without saying that wedding expenses can induce some serious worry, so we found several couples who planned their celebrations without spending a bundle. You’ll love their unique ideas and fun, creative approach to pulling together an unforgettable wedding.

Finally, turn to our honeymoon section and let yourself daydream about the most glorious trip of a lifetime.

We’ll take you around the world, from exotic Bali...
