After doing my bridal hair for 16 years and especially the 5 years of mobile work I have come to realise another thing brides tend to forget is FOOD :) I have designed a menu for bridal parties that consists of a number of platters ranging from health nuts to chocoholics... there is bound to be something in that range to appease those wedding nerves!

I give it out to all of my brides prior to their wedding day so feel free to print it off... If you go to my website www.all4u.com.au and click on brides corner it is there for you to print along with my wedding hair and make up check list!

Congratulations and best wishes!
