50% off Selected Bridal Jewellery

Bejewelled by Tracey

Bejewelled by Tracey currently has up to 50% off selected gorgeous Bridal Jewellery made from the finest quality Swarovski Crystal and Sterling Silver.


Crystals

I use Swarovski crystals, as they are the best quality crystals you can get in the world, with a stunning range of shapes, colours and sizes available.

Silver

My designs are made with sterling silver components rather than plating. As a precious metal it contains no nickel, so the majority of women can wear it without a skin reaction. On occasion a jewellery component is not available in sterling silver, in which case I use nickel free/allergy free materials provided by Swarovski.

Using sterling silver also means you can clean each piece with silver cleaners, and prolong the life of the jewellery. I recommend silver dip, available from jewellery stores.



Whether if you are getting married her on the Gold Coast in a quaint Chapel or outdoors, perhaps on the beach if you are having a beach wedding ceremony, Bejewelled by Tracey will have the perfect jewellery for your amaising wedding day.  Feel Great - Look Amaizing!


It will be the perfect accompaniment to your incredible wedding dress.

How to update your calendar in myWeddingHour

Keeping your calendar updated is essential in providing you with quality leads from Brides who are wishing to enquire about your services on a day that you are available.  Availability is the key to myweddinghour.  Time is worth everything today and brides know that the quickest way to find a wedding supplier that is available for their wedding day all they have to do is search the myweddinghour database by their particular wedding date and time.

For every time you update your calendar you will be rewarded for going to the top position in your particular advertising category and ranking, giving you a much higher chance of receiving more great, high quality leads.  Nice to be rewarded every now and then, isn't it.

So, how to keep your calendar updated.

First, log into your supplier area using your email address and password.  If you don't know your password there is an option there to have the password sent to your email address.  Then select 'calendar' and your calendar will appear.

Then select the day that you wish to advise that you are already booked for.  Now you will see an option here to select if you are booked for the entire day or part there of.  Most of the time for weddings depending on what your service is of course, you will be only wishing to block out a few hours at a time for each booking. If that is the case, all you need to do is select the times that you are booked between ie 1:00pm and 4:00pm (for a 2:00pm wedding ceremony if you are a celebrant).

In this same area if you are wishing to book out a week or two for holidays etc then you can do so, but you can only book 7 days at a time, just repeat the same steps to book for another 7 days for a 2 week holiday etc.

Keep your calendar updated and you will be rewarded by being placed above your competitors in the rankings, giving you a better chance of receiving more enquiries and of course we will be assisting our brides to make myweddinghour their preferred choice of planning their magical day, because it is easy, simple and they save much valuable time finding what it is they are actually looking for.

Hilary Duff Wedding

The Hilary Duff Wedding to upcoming hockey star Mike Comrie went off without a hitch on Sunday the 15th of August on sunset in Santa Barbara, California.  Brittish tabloid 'The Sun' reports that Hilary's mom, Susan Duff, gave away the bride, and that Hilary's wedding dress was by Vera Wang.

The newlyweds, Hilary 22 and Mike 29, tied the knot in front of 100 of the couple's closest family and friends.  Sister Haylie was the maid of honor.  Witnesses say, 'the wedding was magical, they thought of every detail.'

The image provided here is all that is available right now of the wedding.

Comrie gave Hilary a $1 million dollar engagement ring back in February after their trip to Hawaii, which is only fitting as he recently signed a $1.25 million dollar one-year contract for his hockey skills playing for the Edmonton Oilers.  Hilary Duff is not broke herself.  In 2008 she was listed at #8 on the Forbes Young Earners list, and the Sun reports that she recently bought a Hollywood mansion for $3.85 million.

Congratulations to the gorgeous couple.  Perhaps they will honeymoon here on the Gold Coast.

Best Gold Coast Wedding Receptions

Getting married on the Gold Coast isn't as easy as simply saying 'I do'. We have an abundance of choices to choose from.  From a Beach Wedding Ceremony to a Reception in a Vineyard watching the western sky burn orange as the time slips away into evening.  Wedding Dresses, shoes, hair and make up are all catered for by some of the worlds best!  Skillful photographers with years of experience make it difficult to choose between them as they all have their unique styles, skills and expertise.

But when it comes to wedding receptions you really have to think hard about what it is you are looking for.  The sort of questions you need to think about before anything else are:  How many people?  Indoors / outdoors?  Budget?  Catering? etc

If your budget permits then a wedding reception at the Hyatt Regency here on the Gold Coast would be myWeddingHour's best choice of destination for you to celebrate your magical day.  2nd to the Hyatt would be the Q1 closely followed by the vineyards O'Reilly's and Albert River Wines.

For those Bride's & Groom's with a modest budget, Ruffles Lodge is another amaizing wedding ceremony / reception venue but is limited with only being able to cater for about 48 at the reception.  The Point Restaurant & Bar down at Currumbin is also another popular reception venue for the beach lovers.

Island Hideaway Wedding Receptions the Bride and Groom should take a ride over to Couran Cove Island Resort or Couran Point Resort, both over amiazing island experiences.

Alternatively for the Golfers, the many wonderful Golf Clubs on the Gold Coast offer lush greens and brilliant function rooms for you to host your merry event.  The Royal Pines Resort, The Glades Golf Club and The Links are regular favorites amoungst the local Bride & Grooms.

It is always advisable to have your wedding ceremony in the same location as you will be hosting your reception venue and if it's a chapel you wish to get married in then Coolibah Downs in Gold Coast's Hinterland is also a magical destination.  The 'old Church' up on Tamborine Mountain is anther Chapel / Reception Venue giving you the opportunity to have both.

Gold Coast is beautiful, we have the beach at our doorstep and lush tropical rainforest cradling us behind.  The choice is endless.
