the modern kenyan bride

I have been in the wedding industry for a while now since 2005 but officially I opened my own business in April 2008. Its an exciting industry with so much to look forward to. As time passes we get more trendy brides who know what they want and aren't afraid to go for it. At the same time there are well....those who don't like the risk and prefer playing it safe. They use whats already tried and tasted by other brides and wouldn't dare bring something different to the table. Then there are those who get things online and want it exactly the way they got it regardless of whether or not it will suit their theme or the environment they are in. Other brides combine all these methods and still have a successful wedding. So am I criticizing what method a bride uses? no on the contrary tastes and preferences differ from bride to bride and we can learn a lot from what ever combination a bride puts together.


The purpose of my blog: I hope to inform and entertain from real life and probably ideal situations in weddings in Kenya more so I'll like to understand and probably appreciate how a bride goes about in selecting her dress, flowers, vendors and the list continues.


There are problems that occur when weddings are planned here that are hardly talked about. More so I would like to start my articles with an important question that can be considered in Nairobi especially as a bride plans her wedding: Does she need a planner? well will look at a few cases that have occurred in Nairobi weddings and let her make that decision. I look forward to hearing from all who have a chance to read my future articles especially critics.
