Here Comes the Bride

A guest dies on the toilet? A naked wedding? A groom left at the altar? These are some of the issues that Belle Saint James wedding coordinator extraordinaire has faced in her long career. Finally succumbing to the demands of her admirers Belle has put together a collection of some of the more unusual or notable weddings she has organised. She offers some insights into what she has observed and discusses some of the changes she has witnessed. Belle is very clear. To her a wedding is no more than the public commitment of a couple to spend their lives together. It is just the way they go about announcing their commitment that differs. Every wedding is special in its own way, but as Belle demonstrates, all successful weddings are a combination of good will, good planning and managing expectations.
