www.bridesonline.ie has just announced the addition of 10 County Kildare towns to the popular wedding website. Brides in Athy, Celbridge, Clane, Kilcock, Kildare, Leixlip, Maynooth, Monasterevin, Naas & Newbridge can now access a comprehensive list of local wedding suppliers for their wedding day.
The directory already caters for Athlone, Birr, Carlow, Carrick-on-Shannon,
Kilkenny, Longford, Mullingar, Portarlington, Portlaoise, Roscommon and Tullamore. From bridal wear to florists, videographers to photographers - a
wealth of wedding supplier information is available at the click of a mouse.
With the arrival of broadband in most areas nationwide and with less free
time on their hands, brides are increasingly turning to the internet to
research suppliers for their big day and Brides Online provides a service
which is proving useful to everyone involved in the wedding day. While
brides have found an ideal way to search for suppliers, the suppliers
themselves have found an ideal medium to advertise their services to the
brides on a local basis. The directory is unique in that brides can search
for suppliers in their own town or city rather than trying to find suppliers
from a list based on their county.
Having started 18 months ago just catering for Athlone, Brides Online has
expanded at a steady rate since then and now lists over 1,000 wedding
suppliers in 21 towns and cities with another 10 nationwide locations to be
added before the end of the year.
Mark White, a Software Engineer from Monkstown in Dublin, is Managing
Director of the company. "Our objective is simple in concept - nationwide
coverage. The reality should take another 2 years or so." says Mark, "The
quality of the information we provide is vital and this limits the expansion
rate while we research the market in each new town. This research strategy
guarantees we are creating the best possible directory service going
forward."
One of the unique features of Brides Online is an online gallery which is
updated on a weekly basis. No other online wedding directory provides this
service. Photographers and brides alike submit their photos for inclusion on
the gallery and 1 is chosen each week to be added to the live gallery. All
photos added in the past are also kept on the gallery. Brides are using the
gallery as a visual source of ideas for jewellery, hairstyles, bridal gown
fashions and even floral arrangements," says Mark, "As the saying goes, 'A
picture is worth a thousand words' and the Brides Online gallery is proving
just that. In addition to flicking magazine pages, brides are now also
clicking their mouse."
