Co-founders David and Georgie Hockett started A Grand Wedding in 2008 after seeing a need for the
wedding industry to get real.
Georgie, a photographer named one of The Knot's "Best of Weddings" winners in 2007, noticed an
emerging trend when meeting photo clients: today, brides are paying for their own wedding.
Statistics show that 70 percent of brides are footing the bill themselves... either because they
are no longer in their 20s, their parents can't afford a lavish wedding or simply because they are
independent women who take pride in paying their own way.
These savvy brides also want a honeymoon, a house and a husband -- in other words, a life; not just
one day. In fact, when David and Georgie got married, they paid for the wedding themselves and still
had enough money to have a honeymoon, a house, and a life.
On A Grand Wedding, you'll never see the words 'budget' or 'bargain', because spending $1,000 on a
dress is by no means frugal. A Grand Wedding is about realistic prices and workable budgets --
along with inspiring wedding stories, ideas that cost $1,000 or less, informative articles and a
chance to make someone's wedding dreams come true with AngelBride®.
A Grand Wedding is here because today's couples want a beautiful wedding...and enough money left over for a beautiful life.
