Hudson’s Dream Weddings 2010 is out now!

Hi all!

Starting from where we left off yesterday, I should go back to talking about the Designer Wedding Show that just ended today at Battersea Park. But actually, these past couple of weeks have been so crazy, it feels there’s more that I should go back to, like the UK Wedding Show that took place last week at the ExCel Centre, and our wedding planner and all those special tips we try to give you.

But first of all, we’d like to announce that the 2010′s edition of the Hudson’s Dream Weddings book is already out and looking simply marvelous!  The book brings the finest selection of venues in the UK and even Italy, as well as suggestions of bridal wear designers, insider tips from professionals in the wedding business, and great advice for you to have the perfect wedding. Not to mention the stunning images of the venues and a list of characteristics to help you decide what is best suited to your ceremony.

The Hudson’s Dream Weddings 2010 is on a special offer of £7.99 and you can purchase a copy through the Hudson’s Dream Weddings website, clicking here, or going to your local WHSmith. It’s the best and most stylish source for the most beautiful venues out there: a definite must-have!

The Wedding Show season is back!

Hello!

February is definitely the beginning of the wedding calendar here in the UK, and especially in London. Last week, the UK Wedding Show took place at the ExCel Centre and we were there to see and tell you everything about it. But we’ll come back to that a little later.

This week, the most luxurious wedding fair, the Designer Wedding Show is happening right up town, in Sloane Square, Battersea Park to be more precise, and Hudson’s has a stand there, promoting the new edition of the Dream Weddings book.

We were there first hand yesterday and it’s absolutely bride-paradise! New trends, gorgeous dresses, lovely satin shoes, the most beautiful tiaras and jewllery sets. Not to mention tons of choices for oh-so-delicious cakes (we tried some!), honeymoon destinations, stationery, flowers and decorations. All at the utmost elegance you deserve!

The Designer Wedding Show is also taking place today and tomorrow, from 10am to 5pm, so you still have a chance to check it out. You can book tickets here or buy them at the venue. And there’s also a complimentary bus taking visitors from the the Sloane Square Hotel (right next to the tube station) to the show venue, every ten minutes.

You won’t miss this right?

Booking the wedding venue: when should you do it?

The Beaulieu Estate

There’s always a lot of debate about the amount of time needed to book your perfect wedding venue. Well, it’s safe to say that, to get the best choice, the earlier the better.

So, when should you book your wedding venue? Two years is normally enough time to secure your ideal venue, leave it to just 12 months before your big day and you run a high risk of finding that the venue you want is booked up.

If it’s a quick wedding you’re after, then you may find some last minute wedding venues’ booking sites worth looking at, such as  Whirlwind weddings or Hitched.

A Google search on last minute wedding bookings probably gets you as a good a set of results as you’ll get. Although there’s probably still a fair bit of leg work required to actually find the right deal for you.

You can also check the availability of the venues on the Hudson’s Dream Wedding Venues site.

Good luck with your search!
