QuestionHow do I look like how Kate Middleton looked on her wedding day?Community AnswerFind pictures of her at her wedding and compare her outfit to whatever you are looking for. Look at her shoes and shop for a similar pair, likewise with the dress. Her makeup is very natural, so ask a professional to do it, maybe even show them a picture of Kate so that they know what you're looking for.

QuestionWhat are the steps a wedding planner should follow for a destination wedding?Community AnswerFind a suitable venue abroad or interstate and check it out online, looking at images, etc. Read a variety of reviews to see if it is good and, if possible, visit in person to verify. Book it when you're satisfied it's the right place and ask for a liaison person with whom you can keep in touch during the coming months of planning––they should be able to advise you on everything from transport to food. Organize the church or other venue for the ceremony and have contact details for the priest or officiant. Book accommodation, flights, transfers, fittings for clothes, food, etc. And it is important to have someone at the other end verify everything for you, preferably under contract so you can sue for damages should anything go wrong.
