101 Secrets Every Bride Needs to Know About Buying Wedding Attire – By Raquel Schuh

January 31, 2012

Working with brides on a daily basis I have recognized their confusion about picking the perfect wedding gown. With so many choices and differences between gown manufacturers, brides have difficulty understanding what all the hoopla (differences) is about. I choose to offer my knowledge and advice through this book in hopes of imparting my wisdom to brides worldwide on the subject of how to acquire the perfect wedding gown.

I worked with Rick Segel of Rick Segal & Associates to produce this book.  Working with Rick, a national retail speaker and consultant, allowed me to narrow down my focus and write about what I feel is most important to bring out a brides beauty and allow her much success on her wedding day.

101 Secrets Every Bride Needs to Know About Buying Wedding Attire is available in-store at Bella Victoria Bridal Boutique and online at http://www.createspace.com/3758392
