What a romantic gift to buy someone--a *clink* toast instead of a toaster :-)
Lisa Light's new book: Destination Bride
|
|
|
We've worked with Lisa for some time now, and she's always been a terrific source of information--even helping me out
with some issues that came up with my own wedding. Lisa sent me a pre-release copy of her book,
Destination Bride, and it's terrific. You'll find a tremendous amount of helpful, detailed information on
wedding destinations, including important facts about marriage laws, currency exchanges,
and wedding and religious customs. As well, there's a ton of great info on
how to select a location, set a budget, make travel arrangements and coordinate the ceremony.
Check it out on
Amazon.com .

Going the extra mile: airbrushing your pics
|
Not everyone is a whiz at editing photos, or an Ansel Adams behind the camera.
The picture you upload to your wedding web page also gets used for your e-postcards, so we're happy
to help you make you look your absolute best!
If you'd like us to work a little magic on your photo, just send it to me at
Michael@thebigday.com
and either Aruna, Jared or myself will be happy
to "polish it up" for you. Here's some examples of what we've done for our customers in the past:
- removed power lines and telephone poles in the background
- eliminated the reflection of the flash in the mirror
- improved the contrast, brightness, and color cast
- airbrushed out dust spots and scratches
- taken the redness out of noses & cheeks when somebody had perhaps been celebrating a little too much ;-p
- airbrushed stains and food crumbs from a table cloth
- we've even removed people from the background in restaurant photos.
Send us your pic for your wedding web page, and we'll work our magic. And yes, we do this for free!
We want you to look your very best.
