Give your weddings the Martha Stewart touch

Sep 23, 2008 by FN's Shar Bareng

marthaweddings.jpgThe much-awaited Philippine edition of Martha Stewart Weddings is finally out, and you can count us among those who were amazed at the first sight of it. Packed with 214 pages, Weddings is filled with useful, unique, and wonderful ideas that embody the Martha Stewart brand’s signature creativity and style, complete with personal touches on minute details.

If you're a bride-to-be caught in the flurry of preparations for your own wedding, you're going to love "A Bride's Guide to Beauty," a six-month countdown of beauty preparations that will have you looking radiant on your wedding day. In it, Beauty Editor Marie Calica advises that you must prepare at least six months ahead if you want to have long hair or acquire that radiant glow on your wedding day. Around this time, you should have secured a makeup artist and started dieting, too, so you can avoid crash diets. You can also take note of other brides' experiences in preparing for their big day as couples share their post-wedding wisdom in the article "One Thing I Learned."

What would a Martha Stewart magazine be, of course, without practical guides for your wedding needs? Weddings is packed with articles about beautifully altered wedding gowns, which can be transformed into a party dress for the reception later; ideal hairstyles; most beautiful bags, shoes, and jewelry to complete your wedding ensemble; bridal registries; and more! To help you keep track of your wedding plans, Weddings also comes with a Wedding Workbook, complete with a checklist for your wedding essentials.

We experienced a taste of a Martha Stewart “wedding” when we attended the magazine’s launch at the Peninsula Manila, where the staff hosted a dainty afternoon tea party, complete with traditional high tea fares like scones, crumpets, and cakes! Check out photos from the launch in the gallery below.

Martha Stewart Weddings Philippines is now available in newsstands and bookstores nationwide for P295 per copy.
