      Planning perfect weddings…

       finding happy endings!

      It’s the biggest and most important day of a

       woman’s life—and it has to be perfect.

      At least that’s what the Wedding Belles believe, and

       that’s why they’re Boston’s top wedding-planner

       agency. But amidst the beautiful bouquets, divine

       dresses and rose-petal confetti, these six wedding

       planners long to be planning their own big day!

      But first they have to find Mr. Right….

      This month:

      SOS Marry Me!

      by Melissa McClone

      Designer: Serena’s already made her dress,

       but a rebel has won her heart….

      And don’t miss the exciting

       wedding-planner tips and author

       reminiscences that accompany each book!

      Melissa spills the beans about her own wedding dress:

      “I was a practical bride on a budget—a mechanical engineer who couldn’t conceive of spending tons of money on a dress I would wear only once. But there was a secret romantic in me, a woman who wrote romance novels on her lunch hour and dreamed of feeling, for one special day, like Grace Kelly or Princess Diana or Cinderella.

      Never mind, I told myself firmly as I went shopping. It’s only one day. It’s only one dress.

      I visited store after store. I found practical gowns. Budget-priced gowns. I tried on dress after dress. And staring in the mirror, I never saw the bride of my romantic longings smiling back at me.

      Nearing desperation, I went to a bridal boutique a coworker had recommended. The gowns I tried on were far from practical, and not one was on sale. But finally, as I was zipped and hooked and buttoned into what must have been my hundredth dress, I turned to the mirror and saw…a bride. Me. The girl of my romantic dreams. The woman who was ready to pledge her life to one special man.

      Only one day. Only one dress.

      I bought it.

      As I wrote SOS Marry Me!, I thought about the friend who helped me find my gown and the woman who designed it. She knew what was important to brides. And so does my wedding-dress-designer heroine, Serena James.

      Serena is a top wedding-dress designer for

       the Wedding Belles. Here are her tips on

       how to pick the right dress for your big day:

        Don’t visit too many bridal boutiques on the same day. Trying on wedding gowns should be a fun experience, not a chore! Do invite a trusted friend or your mother to go with you to offer opinions and support. But try to discourage the entire bridal party from trooping along. Too many opinions may only confuse you. Ultimately, it’s your day, your dress and your decision.
