Bridezilla and the Brideslaves
Bridezilla’s are a well-known phenomena - seemingly lovely individuals who come over all nutty the second the ring is on their finger. We all know a few girls who have done it; even the most chilled out of ladies can become an absolute she-devil before the big day! That said MBS believe every lucky lady has the right to be a wee bit demanding, weddings are stressful and when we are in search of perfection tempers can get frayed!
That said there are a new breed of demanding little madams in town; the Bridesmaid Diva! These are the bridesmaids who do not see their role as playing the proud and helpful BFF but see the whole thing as a chore! The Bridesmaid Diva moans about her dress, does what she wants for the hen do (even if it is highly inappropriate and out of the brides budget) and prefers to flirt her way through the reception as opposed to help play host.
Unfortunately for your lucky ladies they should be more Brideslave and less Bridesmaid Diva. It is the one day when your chosen few just have to grin and bare it and do it for the greater good! If they hate their dress or have a pounding hangover unfortunately the brideslaves have to keep effortlessly cool and tiresomely helpful – it comes with the territory!Pre-wedding preparations can take their strain on the strongest and longest of relationships. Tempers are shortened and budgets can take their toll; forget arguing with your betrothed about the buttonholes it is sometimes the least likely member of the bridal party who can scupper your plans for the big day.
MBS wants your day to be perfect and our top tip to all involved whether they be Best Man/Bridesmaid/Groom/Bride or Mother of the Bride – just KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON!

Under The Dress
Whether we are watching Gok Wan or Trinny and Susannah (going back a few years I know) the one thing these stylist’s agree on is the fit of our bra and the shape of our knickers. At the back of our minds we all know a good fitting bra and some well made briefs can change the way we look instantly and on our wedding day this is as important as ever!Whether you are willing to splash out on Rigby and Peller’s Vollers Sweetheart corset or just want to get a little matching set from M&S it is important to have the right fitting underwear to make you look and feel a billion pounds during your big day!
We know a few brides who get through their day in well built comfort then slip into some much sexier attire before the big send off, sneaky! If it is sexy you want then look no further than the Agent Provocateur bridal range. If it is good enough for Beyonce then it is good enough for us and you cannot beat their striking Penelope Basque or Florence suspender belt – totally gorgeous and we bet your new hubby will think so too.
No matter what you wear ‘under your dress’ on your big day you will look and feel darn sexy – great lingerie just might give you a little extra help along the way.MBS x

Come Rain or Shine
In the UK
That said why shouldn’t us British Brides (and Grooms) investigate something a bit different for our summer weddings? There seems to be something mysteriously romantic about saying our vows outside with something of the Midsummer Night’s Dream about it.
So MBS has been thinking (as long as you have a back up nearby) why not get married under the sun? Here we have put together a couple of places to get married outside…. We hope you get some inspiration!
Set on Scotland
Bunchrew House Hotel, Inverness , IV3 8TA
Hold your ceremony underneath the 260 year old Cedar tree known locally as ‘the loving tree’, in the grounds of Bunchrew House, for the ultimate in romance. Then head inside the 17th Century Scottish mansion for a sumptuous banquet prepared by re-nound in-house chef Walter Walker.
The Lodge on The Lodge on Loch Goil really is impressive, built in 1864 this beautiful lodge is set right on the loch but with a beautiful mountain backdrop. Perfect for intimate weddings; tie the knot in their truly amazing treehouse – one of the only licensed treehouses in the World! Then head back to The Lodge’s Victorian Dining Room for a wedding breakfast to remember.
