Brides-to-be searching for their dream gown and big-day essentials – think personalised favours, fabulous flowers and dazzling reception details – need look no further. To celebrate the launch of Wedding Week at Bluewater, from 9-12 February 2012, we’re offering readers an exclusive discount on tickets to the You & Your Wedding Gala Opening Evening on Thursday 9 February.

This entire evening is dedicated to brides, maids, mums and grooms, and you’ll be the first to browse bridal goods from an incredible selection of classic and contemporary suppliers. At the Inspiration Stations packed with hundreds of ideas for every budget and style, you’ll find the so-you touches you’ve been dreaming of as well as darling details you’d never even considered.

BEAUTIFUL DAY
On the night, you’ll not only be able to shop to your heart’s content, but you’ll also receive a glass of bubbly courtesy of UK Mobile Bars and an exclusive goody bag, plus special Gala Evening offers. Then, as you and your best girls sip drinks at the Catwalk Bar, the high-glamour Catwalk Shows will unfold around you. Along with all things gorgeous to see and buy, there will also be a whole host of experts on hand, from in-the-know suppliers to event planners and budget gurus, ready to inspire you through a series of information-packed seminars and workshops. You & Your Wedding editor-at-large Peta Hunt will even be holding Q&A sessions to help you find your perfect aisle style. Once your theme is chosen and budget’s set, you’ll then have a chance to visit all the creative photographers and meet dancefloor-filling entertainers. Finally, head to the Honeymoon Hideout, where your Mr can put his feet up and dream of long days spent soaking up the sun on dreamy beaches…
