Cate, editor of our sister site, Dollymix, is bothered by this workout DVD by Women’s Health magazine: “Maybe I’m just overly cynical and hate how much pressure and stress women put themselves through for their wedding (it’s only ONE DAY OF YOUR LIFE).”

I take her point, but at the same time the DVD is designed to help you decide how long you should spend on each section of your body depending on the style of your dress, which actually sounds pretty useful. What I am horrified by is the “Love Your Honeymoon” bonus, which will teach you all the basics for stripping. Is that what it’s come to? And where are the pre-wedding workout/stripping DVDs for the groom?
