Move over Martha Stewart - a new face is about to spring forth across the nation in the form of Callie Carson. She’s the cheeky, upbeat, spontaneous and attractive host of the new syndicated television series Planning the Perfect Wedding. Slated for a January 2000 debut, the program is a television primer for the bride-to-be, the groom and their families. "Callie Carson is a real find: naturally engaging, humorous, and warm, she’s everything that a show like this needs to appeal to its intended audience," states Michael Shortt, PTPW’s Creator and Executive Producer. "It’s not a show where you need a tack hammer and a hot glue gun; it’s about style and proper etiquette for the biggest day in a woman’s life. It’s also a fun show. We are taking the mystery out of the wedding planning process while being entertaining and informative," says Shortt.

Callie Carson stands 5’7" tall, a perfect size eight, she looks like a combination of Sharon Stone and Meg Ryan - she has that certain something that’s hard to describe: Non-threatening to women, a pal to men and the utmost authority on the wedding arts. Bringing a "This Old House" approach to the big event, Callie will cover a different aspect of wedding planning each week over 26 original episodes.
