The Knot Selects Girl Friday Weddings As One Of The 10 Best Wedding Consultants

PRESS RELEASE: For immediate release

The Knot Selects Girl Friday WeddingsTM as One of the 10 Best Wedding Consultants in
Australia

Premier wedding planning website The Knot commends Girl Friday Weddings for providing brides
with the same high-end personal assistance usually only associated with big event weddings. By
offering a variety of creative pricing options Girl Friday Weddings opens the door to wedding
consulting services for all bridal couples, no matter how big or small their weddings may be.

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, November 9, 2009 This week the popular wedding
planning website The Knot announced the 10 best wedding consultants in Australia and Girl
Friday Weddings made the cut. Just over a year old Girl Friday Weddings has quickly risen to the
top of the wedding industry ladder by being one of the first to give customers alternative pricing
for a wide variety of wedding planning tasks (offered either by the hour or via one of many
reasonable wedding packages).

Flexible pricing for wedding consultant services is fairly new to the industry making Girl Friday
Weddings an innovator in how brides organise and plan their weddings. Now these services are
no longer reserved for couples working within a big budget. And given the current state of the
economy, Girl Friday Weddings' bold move in allowing brides to pay only for the services they
want (at reasonable rates) could change the way the wedding and event planning industries do
business. They believe offering personalised service, whether it be taking care of simple details
the couple didn't anticipate or dealing with unexpected pitfalls on the day is critical to ensuring
that the Bride and Groom enjoy their wedding celebrations.

Girl Friday Weddings was started one year ago by event planner Sarah Johnston. Sarah
believes all brides should have the option of utilising the experience and expertise of a
professional wedding planner regardless of how much a wedding cost. So she started Girl Friday
Weddings, with the difference being that Girl Friday Weddings consultants evaluate brides'
planning needs and then fill in only with the services needed. Unlike the traditional event planning
price structure, a bridal couple need not pay large fees (or a percentage of their entire budget) for
a complete wedding planning package if all they need is just a few hours of extra help. Girl
Friday Weddings offers customised personal assistance (and pricing) for each wedding they help
plan.

To make sure Girl Friday Weddings not only maintains its high standard of quality assistance, but
also keeps current on new trends and ideas, Girl Friday Weddings Director Sarah Johnston will
be attending The Special Event wedding planning conference and tradeshow January 12 15,
2010, in New Orleans, Louisiana, U.S.A. Her conference agenda will include sitting in on a
variety of seminars that focus on new event planning strategies given today's challenging
economic times. Also, with over 300 vendors to visit at the trade show she expects to come back
educated on all the newest wedding trends and styles, thus adding more value to her clients'
needs.

Girl Friday Weddings is independently owned and operated.
