In a short three weeks both Christmas and New Year will have come and gone, and it’s time to start thinking about those pre-wedding New Year’s resolutions.

Head to Coventry’s Ricoh Arena, and the Midlands Wedding Show, on the weekend of 15 and 16 January for some wedding planning inspiration.

Perfect ten: Sunday is set to be a memorable day for many couples

By Elisabeth on October 8th, 2010

wedding.jpgDon’t be surprised if you see an unusual number of brides and grooms around town this coming Sunday – the most memorable day of the year… 10/10/10.

All over the world, the date has been booked up for months, with thousands of couples wanting to tie the knot on the most unique date of the year. According to Brides Magazine over 31,000 UK couples are getting hitched this weekend, with some registry offices and churches opening their doors especially to accommodate demand. Manchester’s 163-year-old register office will be open on a Sunday for only the third time in its history so that romantic couples can say ‘I do’.

This unique phenomenon doesn’t come around too often, in fact only 12 times every 1,000 years. So if you’re planning an equally memorable date for your wedding, there are only two more left this century. Best book that venue post-haste.
