It's down to the final six one of these women will win prizes worth £8,000 towards their wedding day.

One of these six women will be crowned the Evening Advertiser Bride of the Year 2004.

The six finalists in our annual competition are Jodie Barton, Leanne Cherry, Louisa Curtis, Carrie Glockling, Jessica Hebden and Sarah Laney. The winner stands to win a wedding package, including reception, bridal gown and cake, worth £8,000.

The finalists and their fiancs beat off competition from 100 other hopefuls and will meet our panel of judges on Tuesday who have the difficult task of picking one overall winner.

The judges, who represent the Goddard Arms Hotel, the Evening Advertiser, Skyla and Sharon Whitely Hair and Make-up, along with last year's winners, Lucy and Neil Zerebecki, will then interview each finalist before coming to their decision.
