Chatting with a
Frequent Flyer
Monte Durham, host of
TLC's Say Yes to the Dress:
Atlanta, shares his travel
(and wedding!) tips and tricks.
How did you get started on the show?
I got my first degree in fashion merchandising
and became a personal shopper. Then I went
back to school, studied in London, and earned
a hair degree. I worked for a major spa as a
hair director and then in their wedding-dress
boutique. From there, I began doing wedding
shows around the U.S. That's how I met Lori
Allen [cohost of the show], and we've been
inseparable ever since.
How often do you travel?
I live in Virginia and
commute to Atlanta for
the show. And now I'm
traveling even more with
my hair-care line called
M.O.N.T.E. I travel almost
weekly.
Can you share some tips for
traveling brides?

ADMIRALS CLUB TURNS 75 THIS YEAR
The first American Airlines Admirals Club® location opened its
doors at New York LaGuardia to provide customers with unmatched service in a comfortable, private environment within the
airport. Today, American Airlines offers nearly 60 Admirals Club
and US Airways lounge locations in airports worldwide.
I have a few favorite spots,
but being from West Virginia,
one of my absolute favorites is
The Greenbrier. It is 10,000
acres in the rolling hills, and the
wedding options are limitless.
What's left on your travel bucket
list?
I want to see the Great Wall
of China.
Who would you want to sit next
to on a flight?
A Tip
from Monte:
THIS IS
FOR BRIDES:
PACK A
CHANDELIER
EARRING, A
SMOKY EYE
PENCIL, AND A
RED LIPSTICK.
WALK DOWN
THE AISLE
WITH A SIMPLE
LOOK, AND
THEN AFTER
THE CEREMONY, USE THOSE
THREE THINGS
TO CHANGE
YOUR LOOK
INSTANTLY.
I have to pick two. One is Jackie
Kennedy, because I'm a huge
fan, and I have to ask her why
she didn't wear earrings on her
wedding day. The other would be West
Virginia Senator Joe Manchin and his wife.
They have done great things in the state.
Window or aisle?
Aisle, because I'm a Southern gentleman,
and I don't want to disturb anybody.
Members can choose to stay productive, relax with a cocktail, or
simply recharge during their trip. Personal assistance with reservations, seat assignments, and boarding passes is always available. And, we're always looking to add more access and more
value to Admirals Club membership.
If you haven't had the opportunity to experience our peaceful
oasis for yourself, join today by visiting aa.com/admiralsclub.

I recommend a lace dress
because lace doesn't need
to be steamed. It will
simply fall into place.
If you could plan a destination
wedding, where would you go
and why?
