Hot or Not: Bridezilla… Will you be the next Beast?

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

Dont be a bridal nightmare by turning into a control freak. Relax and stay calm.

You can’t deny it so don’t even try. Bridezillas has taken the airwaves by storm for the past 3 years! Even the most timid of us take a peak at this outrageous show every now and then. I know when I was planning my wedding I forced my fiance to watch it with me every Sunday night! His reply; “this better not even be you, so don’t take any pointers from these nuts!” (more…)

traditions of invitation etiquette? Well, some are suggesting we are anyway. The newest hit...the eRSVP!

Okay you tech-savvy brides, this new trend is right up your alley! Move over traditional wedding invitation etiquette and hello technology. For 2010, the new trend trying to push its’ way through is the eRSVP!

Walmart Wedding 101: Cake Toppers

cake toppers to help you out. Truly a god awful trend not to be glorified!

I have to admit, I do not like gag cake toppers. While they are traditional, they are ugly and outdated. The little figures of a bride and groom were in no way making an appearance atop my wedding cake! Going this route may be something you really like, but there are more updated, contemporary ways to top your cake. Go for flowers, a fondant bow, or you can even find some cool decorated letters to make a monogram. Just please, leave the little people alone! (more…)

The Mangagement?

Mangagement Ring Hot or Not?

As if the term “Engagement” doesn’t freak men out enough, now we have the Mangagement. The wedding industry never ceases to amaze me on their ability to develop some new scheme to generate revenue. The new plot… engagement rings for men. Now you can mark your fiance before you wed. You can tell women to “back off’ with a “mangagement” ring for him, or if he is moving too slow in popping the question, beat him to the punch! This is a phenom that hasn’t quite developed into a true “trend” yet, and hopefully will not reach that magnitude. (more…)

wedding fashion in 2010 is going to be the Tea-length dress

Every article I read is telling me that one of the hit trends for wedding fashion in 2010 is going to be the Tea-length dress. While it may have it’s place in wedding attire, I am not so sure it appropriate for any wedding. I love the flirty feel to it, but I’m afraid if a veil and bouquet weren’t such a staple wedding attire accessory one might mistake the bride for a fellow guest. (more…)

To Bump or not to Bump…is it really a question?

the Snookimonster hair bump

Who knew cast members from MTV’s Jersey Shore would be setting a fashion trend “Don’t”, but then need I say again…Jersey! We all know the stereotypes, especially the girls rocking the ’80′s “big hair”, but some clearly hold true to their home state roots. Though the wedding gowns for 2010 are showcasing a more refined look, we can still see in N.Y.C. this past fashion week that the bump may not have run it’s course yet! (more…)
