New Online Wedding Planning Resource, Elegala.com, Targets the High-End Bride

March 27, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
A new player just entered the wedding planning arena. Elegala (http://www.elegala.com) launched in early 2006 as a departure from mainstream online planning resources. With a national directory of rigorously selected wedding services, exclusive content and aesthetic design, Elegala.com specifically targets the high-end bride.

“Most wedding planning websites are overwhelming, poorly designed, difficult to navigate and often targeted towards lower budget weddings, says Jessica Kaiser Sears, president of Hawthorn Publications, the parent company that owns and operates Elegala.com. “A demand exists for something fresh; we recognized a void and sought to create something that is more elegant and less saturated.”

Elegala.com’s Distinctive Features:

Exclusive Content and Resources -
Elegala.com only showcases that which is superior - targeting the sophisticated and discerning bride. Elegala editors choose wedding services, images and features with careful consideration of the audience and image. Reception sites must go through a rigorous selection process to be listed on the site, and only wedding vendors personally recommended by those exclusive reception sites may be listed in the directory of wedding professionals.

Superior Design and Aesthetics –
A talented and experienced design team created Elegala.com with a look that blends classic and cutting edge representation and a visual appeal that is unmatched by other sites in the wedding market. Visitors will welcome the void of distracting advertisements, pop ups, banners and cluttered content.

Complimentary Downloads of Event Planning Brochures and Vendor Coupons -
To assist brides in planning their event, Elegala.com offers free downloads of each reception site’s complete event planning brochure. Each brochure is a takeaway piece that a bride can add to her wedding planning arsenal and features a list of that facility’s preferred event professionals. Brides can download complimentary coupons from those vendors directly from the site - because even high-end brides enjoy savings! Elegala.com is the only online wedding resource to offer these services.
