You & Your Wedding

Getting a stack of wedding magazines is one of the first things most girls do when they get engaged, and i was no different. The thing that no-one tells you is how expensive they all are. You could easily spend £20 and only walk away with four magazines. You and Your Wedding i think was one of the best for inspiration. However it is pretty hard to differentiate between all the ones on offer - and they all recycle their ideas, so a January issue 2009, will probably be the same as a January issue 2010 - this is something that i found all the magazines were guilty of. The great thing about You and Your Wedding is that they also have a website which i found really useful too. Wedding magazines are useful (i found my wedding ring in one) and they are great fun to go through with your girlfriends whilst planning the wedding, just don't throw them away as they can be passed on to friends afterwards!

Some great ideas, can be a bit same-y and cheezy. Overall, i found it useful.

You and Your Wedding is a great place to start when you're planning a wedding. Great articles and some really innovative ideas for original weddings. I found it really helpful for putting together ideas. They also do a good range of dresses.

Probably the best national bridal magazine available. Loads of tips, advice and news on current trends and themes. Particularly good for ideas on dresses. It also includes comprehensive listings of many of the major wedding suppliers and services.

You and Your Wedding is a very good magazine, with loads to read and real peoples weddings! There is also a forum online for us brides to be to chat about our weddings!

You & Your Wedding magazine is a great size to start with which means when I find items I like I don't need to rip them out, just pop the magazine in my bag for reference in shops etc.

The content is really varied and doesn't cram its pages with adverts like some other magazines, and best of all the items featured are affordable! There's nothing worse than a magazine featuring a great item, only to find that its only available from one or two exclusive london stores! And at triple your budget!

Also, I like the real life brides section in this magazine - again, they are normal people, not millionaires etc!
