Ref. 30825-80Bride Of The Year Louisa Curtis has been getting advice from the sponsors of the Evening Advertiser competition to ensure her big day is perfect.

She will be marrying fianc Michael Nestor, 36, at St Mark's Church, in Rodbourne, on August 27.

The wedding reception will be held in the lavish Golden Ballroom, in the Goddard Arms Hotel, in Old Town.

And guests will be treated to wedding favours created by Precious Moments. Each will be presented with a small velvet purse filled with Belgian chocolates.

Louisa is keeping the details of her wedding dress top secret. Her gown has been specially designed by Skyla Designs, in Marlborough, and, once it is finished, she will finalise her bouquet, which is being supplied by George Lesley Flowers, in Swindon. The family are in the process of moving from their home in County Road to Old Walcot. Louisa, 31, said: "Things are a bit hectic but I am undaunted. I am sure everything is going to be fine. I'm not too fazed yet."

She won a wedding package worth £8,000, which covers everything from rings from Deacon's Jewellers, in Old Town, to wedding photography provided by the Advertiser.

Other sponsors are Sugar Celebrations, of Swindon; Moss in the Outlet Village; make-up artist Sharron Whiteley, of Pewsey; Party Box, of Wootton Bassett; Dangerfields car hire, of Swindon and Prestige Colour, in Rodbourne.
