Why do most brides marry in June? Maybe it's because of a old adage that states, when you marry in June you'll be a bride all your life, or maybe it's simply because brides are hoping for good weather on their wedding day.

Whatever the reason, there is one source a couple can use to create the perfect wedding:  the BetterBook PhoneBook (www.betterbook.ca).  Almost five billion references are made to print directories every year with a resulting 63% making a contact, visit or purchase after a search. 

The BetterBook Phone Book can help couples find everything they need to plan their special day. Many of the elements of a wedding can be found under the top headings in the directory.  From picking out the perfect wedding rings at a store under the Jewelers category to deciding which wedding invitation to send out under the Printers heading to a tropical honeymoon coordinated by a local company in the Travel Agent section.   

Determining where the wedding reception will be held can be found in the Banquet Facilities heading, along with menu choices under the Caterers category and the scrumptious wedding cake can be designed using a local bakery under the Bakeries  heading.

The bride's perfect gown can be found at one of the many stores under the Bridal Shops heading and tuxedos can be rented at one of the local businesses in the Formal Wear category.

Brides can use the Florists heading when needing help choosing floral arrangements for the reception tables and also can utilize the popular Musicians category to decide their dancing music. And, if a bride or groom needs some extra salsa steps to impress family or friends, they can find help under the Dancing Instructions section to learn additional dance moves.

No wedding is complete without photographs or a video to remember the lovely couple and their special day. To mark this special occasion, look for a professional under the Photographers or Video Production headings.

Or, if all the many decisions of planning a wedding seem overwhelming, the couple can peruse the Event Planning heading or Wedding Consultant category and let those experts handle the wedding planning.

"The BetterBook can be a tremendous help in planning every part of the perfect wedding," said Keith Powell, publisher of local directory. "You can find everything you need at a local business in your yellow section of your BetterBook."
