(See photos on my Photos Page)

Fashion Parade Hosted By CTV's Gorgeous Kate Kouloubrakis. (left).

Your Day Trust presented yet another exceptionally successful Spring Wedding Show at Rydges Hotel Christchurch on Sunday 17 September 2006.

All aspects of the wedding for the bride and groom- including top reception
and venues, health, hair & beauty specialists, florists, jewelery & wedding
accessories suppliers, photographers, marriage celebrants and
wedding transport experts helped couples plan your entire day under one roof.

                         With no need to phone around for brochures, make appointments
                                   for visits or go online-there was time to relax and eave the planning in the hands
                               of the professionals while one had fun and got pampered!

 

           http://www.sharonlingham.com/blnkstr.gifA lucky couple won a fantastic
            “The Spring Wedding 2006 Wedding Package “.

 

                     Age is not a barrier as an 18 year old would  have the same excitement
                             as an 80 year old to  plan their special day! It is great to see couples 
                    attend our shows from out of town as well from overseas.

               
http://www.sharonlingham.com/blnkstr.gifFor the convenience of the couples attending the show,
               bridal fashion shows were held  at 11.30am and 2.30pm-hosted by
