Welcome to the new BellaOnline Weddings Newsletter. I’m Mackenzie and I’m extremely excited to serve as your new editor. First a little about me, I’ve worked in the special events and meetings field for the past 10 years, internationally for the last 4. I’ve recently returned from living in Berlin and now reside in Washington, DC. You can learn more about me and my background in my bio found at the end of this note.

What I hope to bring to you and this forum is my experience in the wedding and destination wedding planning industry. Come on in and take a look around, as you will see there are some changes on the site and more will take place in the coming weeks. I think the sight has great bones, but look forward to fleshing it out and adding some spice.

You can look forward to new articles on various topics including:
--how to select a wedding cake
--questions you should ask when making a venue visit
--the basic information that should be included in a vendor contract
--hot new styles for the 2007 season
--trends in bachelor/ette parties
--an easy guide for the groom
--a simple guide to printing methods

But this is not entirely about what I can provide; I believe we can do great things together. I want to hear from you. We will make this an informative guide and sounding board for you and other brides while you are on this most important journey.

So what are you waiting for? Sign up below to start receiving fresh and innovative planning tips for your wedding.

Happy planning!

Mackenzie
