Smells Like Bridezilla
Pretty in white

Weddings are tricky. Basically, for the bride, it's an invitation for her nearest and dearest to completely trash her taste. On her dad's bar bill.

That's why wedding coordinators are in such demand. Great wedding - it was all the bride's idea. Not-so-great wedding - blame the WC.

The trick is to be original - not so original that you go against the unwritten rules: someone's gotta wear a white dress and there should only be two people at the end of the aisle, but original enough to wow the nuptially overdosed crowd.

In the eternal quest to outdo the Sophies and Arabellas of this world - who got married same place on the same day in the same dress last summer - Plateau restaurant, anther Conran creation, has launched Fragrant Weddings.

Working with a leading fragrance authority, brides-to-be (aka *@!&%) will identify their signature scent (before anyone gets too excited, I'd like to call dibs on 'Eau de vin rouge et Silk Cut Purple'), which will then be incorporated throughout her wedding; in the bouquet, venue and menu.

As a special touch, each 'Fragrant Wedding' couple will be invited to celebrate their first anniversary at Plateau, with complimentary champagne and dinner.

Separate tables optional.

 

Fragrant Weddings - available exclusively at Plateau. Prices range from £3,000 for the Private Dining Room and from £16,000 for an exclusive hire basis. For further details, please call Federica Pezzetta on 020 7715 7100
