With the vintage theme at its’ peak this season, the 2010 bride has a new option to complete her wedding day ensemble…the birdcage veil. Formerly named a “fascinator” in the 1920s-30′s, this trend debuted last season and remains a hot choice for this year’s brides. (more…)
Oh Mom, how we love thee… there are just too many ways! We all call on mom when the times get tough. Mom is there to give unconditional love and support and always seems to have the right answer (even though we don’t always let her know it!). Mom has the pearls of wisdom we seek on more than a few occasions in life. As a women, she provides us the added companionship and support through the awkward years and is a reflection on how we begin to nurture our families. So now its’ your wedding day and you call on her expertise to guide you over the next few months of appointments and decisions for your big day. Even though the wedding planning process is arduous, mom will be there with a big plate of chocolate chip cookies when the times get rough! (more…)
Oh how we love to reminisce of times past. Thinking back to days of youth and sharing fond memories. Now it’s your wedding day and time to make new memories! The thought of planning a wedding can seem like a daunting task for a lot of brides-to-be, but it doesn’t have to be! I understand the pressure of not knowing which linens will go best with the lighting, and what flowers go best with the china and room decorations. My advice to you busy brides; pick a theme first and the rest of your ensemble will fall neatly into place. By choosing your theme you will then be able to research ideas that will make your decision-making process less tedious. (more…)
Out in the middle of the dry Nevada desert comes an oasis sprawling with palm-lined streets that flash neon at all hours of the day. You guessed it… Vegas baby!! Unfortunately the celebrities do ruin the appeal a little with their own Vegas quickie weddings, but it truly is an amazing place for a destination wedding. No surf, but plenty of sand and eye popping sites await you and your guests in the entertainment capital of the world. (more…)
We have all been to the wedding, or have seen it on t.v., where the bride has ordered a cake that hovers over us like Kilimanjaro. The image remains impressive in my mind… but was it absolutely necessary? Well ladies, not for 2010. Yes, sure, the platinum wedding girls will remain the ones with the mile high cakes, but this season the look is cascading cakes. Multiple cakes with fewer layers, decorated on stands of different heights. (more…)
Call it Retro, call it Rockabilly, call it what you will, but this season watch out wedding-goers because you may just get knocked off you feet by this latest craze! So, we have all heard the term “Retro” used a lot lately in terms of fashion and décor, but really what are we talking about. Not completely sure myself, I Wiki’d it! I know pretty funny. So the “official” definition reads that “Retro” is a culturally outdated or aged style, trend, or fashion, from the postmodern past, but have since become functional or superficially the norm once again… okay so Vintage? No, not really Vintage, think more Elvis and Mary Tyler Moore. (more…)
