The experts at the Association of Wedding Gown Specialists have eight smart tips about what to do once you take the gown home from the bridal shop.  They have partnered with Carbonfund.org (http://carbonfund.org) to safeguard our planet's future.

Anne Chertoff, Senior Editor at Brides.com, recorded an audio boo on Twitter live at the Pnina Tornai show at Kleinfeld.  Anne talks about what she saw on the runways and what brides can expect to see in the bridal salons.  There are lots of wonderful options for brides today.

Couples spend so much money to ensure every detail is perfect, yet leave the speeches to unskilled hands. Wendy Dennis, founder of Crowd Pleaser Communications, joins us via Skype from Toronto to learn what a speech is and is not and why itâs important to be well prepared.  Wendy is an award-winning journalist and bestselling author who recently launched a business writing toasts for the speechwriting challenged.
