Welcome to the new year and the 2016 issue of The Bridal Guide Magazine! Join us at Canada’s Bridal Show in Toronto this weekend or at the 47th Annual Hamilton – Halton Spring Bridal Wedding Show in Hamilton to pick up your copy.

Planning a wedding is a wondrous, exciting, all-consuming affair full of details, details, details. We want you to revel in those details. Linger from one to the next. Let the anticipation of your big day be playful, heart-warming and wide-open. We’re passionate about those details and our team works hard every day to ensure that we can provide inspiration and direction whenever you might need it. We even have the organization of your details covered with our exclusive Bridal Planner included in the magazine. It’s the perfect size to carry around everywhere, as one never knows when inspiration will strike. (That’s part of the fun, no?)

Consider us part of your wedding planning team—part of your #weddingsquad. Share your stories, inspiration, fears, questions and quirks with us here in the comments, through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or send me a note to editor@thebridalguide.ca. We love to blog about real people with real stories and I hope that this year it will be you!
