Of course it is a real plus if a picture can accompany the story, but photographers have a way of getting exceedingly busy during the most popular, months of brides Sometimes it is six weeks or more before the photo arrives By then the gown has been carefully packed away along with memories of the wedding for all except those closest to the ceremony To describe the stitching and graceful fall of the most beautiful attire at such a late date places a newspaper in the position of explaining to everyone else why it has suddenly become a bimonthly publication So gals now lining up the right fellow for the right day. put this message aside with other pre-nuptial bits of advice and look at it as the day draws closer Even if you don't much care that the masses know you were a beautiful bride, your proud family does When you know the date, have engaged the clergyman, rented the hall, and ordered the cake -remember, it's time to let your newspaper in on the fact that something important is going to happen And be sure to tell the photographer to make up a black and white print so every detail will show up at its best Several big wedding months are still ahead If you include us among your planning duties, we promise to make the day a bit happier for all concerned.
