September 29, 2009
As a blushing bride you want your wedding to be unique and memorable, just like you will be as you walk down the isle in your wedding dress. There is no detail too small to be customized, and it’s the little extras that will make your wedding exceptional for your guests. When it comes to choosing wedding favors the options can be absolutely overwhelming. As a bride you want to give out something new that people haven’t seen before and yet what you choose still needs to be affordable and classy.
Bliss by Monique Lhuillier
September 28, 2009
I did mention in my previous post that Monique Lhuillier is my favorite wedding designer. Today, I am thrilled to say that she and her husband, Tom Bugbee, recently announced the fall launch of their affordable line called “Bliss”. This brand new collection will include 14 designs, all with that “Monique” touch – fabulous designs, embellished, elegant lace, organza and silk fabrics – at a much affordable price. The gowns price range from $2400 to $3500 so the bride on a budget can still wear the Monique Lhuillier label.
Designer Wedding Gowns – Get the Look for Less
September 27, 2009
I came across a Wedding Supplement of Town & Country Weddings magazine a few days ago. For those who are not familiar with this magazine, it is, as their tag line says ” A sophisticated title for the elegant and discerning bride”; translation – upscale, high-end weddings. I love the looks, the real brides and everything they have from cover to cover, so luxurious. However, after I finished browsing the pages, I was thinking to myself how a bride with a limited budget be able to wear designer wedding gown just like the ones in the magazine. Then, it occurred to me that I can surf the net and find cheaper alternatives to these designer gowns. By cheaper, I do not mean tacky or knock-offs. I meant just as classy, but has a lower price than the designer one. I admit it was fun searching the Internet, albeit it takes a lot of time.
Groom’s Role in Wedding Planning
September 26, 2009
Traditionally all wedding responsibilities have fallen on the shoulders of the beaming bride. Sometimes the bride has a wedding planner that helps her make decisions and insures that all goes smoothly. Historically the groom’s single responsibility has been to show up at the wedding on time in his tuxedo, as the wedding day is known as the “bride‘s day“.
Prenuptial Agreements – Should You Have One?
September 21, 2009
Most people view “prenuptial agreements” or “pre-nups” as distasteful or as a sign of distrust between a couple planning to get married. There’s always the connotation that this piece of paper is insurance when the couple’s “happily ever after” take a turn into a battle in the divorce court; and that it is for the truly wealthy and celebrities only.
Will you put car, home, health and life insurance in the same light? I don’t think so. Prenuptial agreements are similar to these insurances – no one anticipates an accident, fire, major sickness, death or divorce. We certainly do not want to talk about it, but it can happen and sometimes it does happen to us when we least expected; and it is best to be prepared.
