Top wedding coach to offer a glimpse of Paradise at Newcastle bridal show

The UK’s leading bridal coach will be sharing invaluable advice on how brides to be can look and feel amazing on their big day at the North East Wedding Show in Newcastle from January 25-26. Michele Paradise, who runs her own company ‘The Bridal Coach’, is a former catwalk model and trainer and has appeared as a judge on Britain’s Next Top Model, Model Behaviour and ASBO Teen to Beauty Queen. Michele was also a consultant on How To Look Good Naked and 10 Years Younger. She is also a Clinical and Professional Hypnotherapist having trained with Paul Mckenna and Dr Richard Brandler and has brought together all of her skills to help brides to look and feel good inside and out for their big day. Michele will be speaking at the Expert Theatre at the Wedding Show about a range of topics including how to work with the camera to look great in pictures, how to buy and wear the most comfortable wedding shoes, finding your body shape and the importance of posture. She said:  “Being a Bride is like being a supermodel for the day.  The big difference is supermodels have guidance and years of experience. Brides don’t – and they only get one shot at it.  “Their day is incredibly special and of course they want it to go smoothly.  But knowing how to deal with confidence issues, how to walk up the aisle in style and to cope with all the stress that comes with such a big day can be overwhelming and for some can overshadow the enjoyment of the day. Help is at hand however and at The North East Wedding Show I hope to share some of my advice and tips in a fun and informative way”. Other speakers will include wedding photographer, Phil Ryott on getting the best out of your wedding photos and dress designer Kathryn Russell.  There will also be entertainment by Grooveline, a leading North East wedding band.
