We have MOVED!

A quick note to all my loyal blog subscribers - our blog has now moved!!

I recently upgraded the Country Weddings website to a new design and within that design is its own blog - so there is no longer the need to outsource with this blogger.

Please take a look at: BLOG and if you havent already subscribed to the Country Weddings mailing list please do on the homepage.
I hope you like it.

New Country Weddings Website

Within a few weeks...maybe even days, Country Weddings will have a new spiffy website!

Make sure you keep checking the website so you can take a look at the new design.
It will have a few new bits and pieces on there to help plan your wedding day!

Greek Wedding of the year

I received an email this week titled: Greek Wedding of the Year

(information originally from http://office-humour.co.uk/item/12205/)

If you take a look at the above link it will show you the images from the wedding - it is a bit "out there" not something that i would do for my own wedding, but it did have some really cute aspects that i thought were good.

It also got me looking into other funny weddings, click on the below links if you would like a little laugh.

Wedding Specialists - Scam Alert

Hi Guys,
I feel it is my unfortunate duty to inform any and all wedding specialists that there is a scam currently going around involving wedding planning.

I was contacted by email recently from a man wishing to plan his wedding through Country Weddings. He was from overseas and wished to plan his wedding in our area.

I original thought it was a bit strange and asked him for more information, wanting to find out if it was Wagga that he was interested in as i told him i felt a bit dubious about his request. After several emails he had almost convinced me of his request. I had already searched the internet for his name and didnt find any scam information. It wasnt until i double checked the time difference in his emails from the country he said he was emailing from that i got a bit more worried as it was always at a strange time (from his country) that he was emailing me- and eventually when he gave me his phone number i searched the net for the number and came up with another wedding website informing people of the scam.....so PLEASE be careful.

For more information on this scam you can take a look at another blog that has lots more information on it.

**Any businesses still wanting to participate with our showbags need to contact me as soon as possible!!! jodie@countryweddings.com.au **

Brendon & Erins Wedding Video

Brendon and Erin were married at St.Michael’s Cathedral and later enjoyed their reception at the Wagga RSL. Here's a little clip as the girls prepare before the ceremony.

For the best viewing experience we recommend pressing play and then pausing the video in order to let the video load. Once it loads to around 30% or so then press play again. Enjoy!

Ronald & Lacey's Wedding

Their wedding was held in their home town of West Wyalong.
The new Mrs Pettit was greeted outside the church by the school children she teachers all dressed in uniform, how cute! Good effort during school holidays.
