We found some beautiful spring brides maid dresses in a variety colours and styles that will suite any body type. We tried to find dresses that your maids could wear again, in hopes that they wouldn't feel too badly about spending the money!
Orange and yellow dress by Watters and Watters
Pink Dress by Alfred Angelo
Black, blue and champagne dress by Jim Hjelm
Your wedding ensemble wouldn't be complete without the perfect hairstyle! We have showcased here different styles for every bride's taste. We have up-dos, down-dos and half up/half down. You can view these pictures and more styles on brides.com. They have a whole gallery of hairstyles for both the modern bride and traditional bride. They also have a quiz you can take to figure out what your wedding style is! I was bohemian...now we got to get Diana to do the quiz!
Here is another design from the Papillon/TearDrop Collection! What's more girly and sophisticated than a tiffany blue cake and invitation...just stunning!
Diana and I put together a few or our favourite gowns! The designer is Maggi Sottero, and Diana's dress was actually this designer! And I think I found my dress! It's the second one down! I've been looking every where for a short funky dress, and I think I found it! I'm not even engaged yet...but maybe if I buy the dress my hubby will FINALLY pop the question!
This designer has dresses to suit everyone's tastes. She has ballroom gowns, mermaid gowns, short gowns. The fabrics are beautiful and the price is right! Check our her site to view more of her designs!
We found this amazing product at Spoonsisters. This bean has a word lasered onto one side, and a complementary imagine on the other. So, all you would have to do to see the message is grow the bean. You just add a bit of water to the bean and in about a week or so, the bean will poke through the soil revealing the special message!! There are a few messages available, and they are, Thank you (with a thanks in Japanese), Love (with a heart), Good Luck (with a four leaf clover), and Happy Birthday (with a musical note) We thought the Thanks and Love beans would be the most perfect favor for your wedding! Think of how amazed and pleased your guests would be when they take the plant home and discover that you sent them a message with the plant...AMAZING!
Diana and I found a great online jewelry and handbag store called ShySiren. Their products are beautiful to wear for your wedding or just any ordinary day, and their prices won't break the bank!
ShySiren was started by two architects, Anita Lin and Sara Schwittek. They design and hand craft each and every piece in their collection. They put great thought into the materials, textures and colours used for their jewelry. Each piece has their own unique design.
Today's post is about a girl's best friend...no not diamonds...SHOES! We found the most beautiful shoes by a company called Hollywould. They have shoes in every style and colour. We have posted a few of our favourites with dresses we think work well with them...ENJOY!
Diana and I put together a little outfit for a weekend away! With the weather finally starting to feel like Spring, we have the shopping fever like everyone else! All the products you see above are from Orla Kiely. She has the most refreshing and unique clothes and accessories. My favourite is the orange carry-on...perfect for your honeymoon!
I'm constantly on the Colin Cowie website looking for inspiring and new wedding trends. These beautiful spring tables would work beautifully for a wedding, bridal shower, engagement party or just an evening of dinner with friends. I love the fresh and springy colours. My favourite setting is the one with the white tulips. I love anything and everything white! And my favourite flowers are tulips!
Any one of these table designs is easy to do! You don't need to hire a celebrity wedding planner to have your dream wedding reception! Be creative, use unique and odd centerpieces. Ikea is chalk full of beautiful vases. They carry long cylindrical vases, that would look gorgeous with a single orchid placed inside. Be creative, think outside the box!
