Newcastle Bride is an online wedding resource for brides focusing on local wedding industry businesses in the Newcastle, Hunter Valley and Central Coast regions.

Owner of Newcastle Bride Karen Horne said the local wedding market is presented to brides on a platter.

"A full page of information is dedicated to each wedding business including contact details, image galleries, special offers and even video footage," Ms Horne said.

"There's little need for brides to look elsewhere when planning a wedding."

Ms Horne said brides can be inspired by Newcastle Bride's monthly feature weddings and photo galleries, and they can follow the Newcastle Bride blog to participate in regular bursts of wedding discussion.

Online wedding planning tools are also in the pipeline.

"With Newcastle Bride you can enjoy the organisation of your big day, right down to the smallest detail. It's the smart way to organise a wedding!" she said.

Maintaining the spotlight on local wedding industry services is a strong priority for Newcastle Bride.

"We keep our brides up to date with global wedding trends and the very latest in bridal fashion around the world, but it is imperative that we direct brides back to locally based businesses when making their purchase."

Tapping into the social media craze, Newcastle Bride is already armed with 1500 Facebook fans and with an average of 1700 weekly visitors to the website, Newcastle Bride is positioning itself as a strong industry leader.

Visitors to Newcastle Bride's website and Facebook page can register their details to receive a free pampering from Newcastle's endota day spa.

"Just another reason why Newcastle Bride is the beginning of wonderful," Ms Horne said.
