Hairstyles For Your Wedding Day

Most brides concentrate on wedding party apparel, and leave hairstyles and makeup to the last minute. If you’re planning a traditional wedding and you have a significant amount of time to plan, one element of your planning should be a consult with a hair stylist.

The stylist can give a professional opinion about the most flattering style for your hair, and can also consult with members of your wedding party. Your hair style should reflect the same style as the rest of your wedding. If you plan a formal affair, your hair should be professionally coiffed before your event.

Consult with your stylist after you have selected your dress. Take photographs of the dress you intend to wear to the consultation. It will be important for the stylist to see the neckline of the dress, the overall length and the colour. You should also take pictures of your bridal party dresses or a swatch of fabric that accurately represents the colour of the gowns.

Your stylist may recommend a new cut, or a different timetable for haircuts between the consult and the wedding, especially if you have a particular style in mind. The stylist may also recommend a different hair colour - if you colour your hair - for the event. You can often find temporary colouring products that will wash out easily, so you won’t need to make any long-term commitments o a hair colour or highlights that you don’t normally have.

Your stylist may be able to recommend a professional makeup artist who can help you choose colours and styles that complement your apparel and hair style choices. If not, you may want to investigate having a professional makeover in the weeks prior to your wedding. Consult your hair stylist first before consenting to a haircut at this stage!

Wedding apparel is only one part of the look you will project on your wedding day. Professionally styled hair and makeup can make a real difference in your appearance, and can give your confidence a real boost when you’ll need it the most!

Valentines Day Proposal

If your Valentine’s Day celebration this year included a wedding proposal, start planning your wedding. The cost of the average Australian wedding is approaching AUD$40,000, but don’t let that stiff price tag interfere with your wedding plans.

Instead, you should plan, plan, plan! Nothing increases the cost of a wedding like unplanned expenses, so the more thorough your plan is, the less likely you are to be surprised by additional expenses.

Set a budget and stick to it. Creating a wedding budget can take time, and you’ll probably need to make several adjustments along the way. Spend a week or two researching the potential costs, and determine those things that are most important to you. Once you’ve established a preliminary budget, determine whether your calculated costs are within your spending range. If your budget is significantly different than the funds you have available, you’ll need to look at each planned expense in the cold light of day to determine whether you can reasonably afford it, and the impact it - or its absence - will have on your event.

Order your invitations early. Generally, it doesn’t take long to have your invitations printed and delivered, but if this detail is left to the last minute, you could end up with disappointing results. If you have more than a year to plan your big day, consider sending your guests a “save-the-date” card, especially if you plan to wed near a major holiday or at the height of the wedding season. Guests can usually plan around you wedding if they know the date well in advance.

Consult with family and friends who have planned weddings in the past. They can give you a good idea of how much time you should allocate to your search for apparel, catering, photography, flowers and other wedding services. Start looking at wedding planning resources to help you find suppliers, options and ideas that suit your budget.

Planning a wedding can be challenging, but you’ll be most comfortable with an event that fits both your style and budget. Solid planning is the key to making certain that you and your guests enjoy your wedding day.

2008 Could Be A Colourful Year For Bridal Dresses

If you’re looking for something to make your wedding stand out, consider wearing a colourful wedding dress. This season, the designers have created a flurry of gowns that range from pale blue to fire engine red. Red is certainly a departure from the traditional white wedding gown, and it is a traditional bridal colour in many Asian cultures. It’s also strongly associated with love and passion, so it should be right at home at a wedding.

Shades of red vary from bright red to deep maroon, and are a striking contrast to the traditional white. Red dresses come in a flood of dazzling styles and will guarantee that you will be the center of attention. If you’re considering a red wedding gown, check out the designer collections from Maggie Sottero, Demitrios, Bonny Bridal and Essense of Australia.

Not ready to go all-red? Several designers offer white gowns with red trim or red accents. Especially striking are white dresses with red panel insets in the back or on the skirt. You can also find dresses in a number of other striking colours, if red isn’t your style.

If you want to pass on the traditional white wedding dress, be sure to choose a colour that suits you. The staff at your favourite bridal shop should be able to help you assess the available shades and help you choose one that will let you shine. They can also help you choose complementary colours for your wedding party.

Mass Wedding Vow Renewal May Break Record

As part of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania’s 250th-year celebration, 750 couples have taken part in Re-Union, a massive wedding vow renewal event at the Carnegie Music Hall. The event was presided over by Pittsburgh mayor Luke Ravenstahl and may be entered into the Guinness Book of World Records. The existing record was established by 272 couples in Sydney in September 2007.

To participate, couples had to submit their marriage license. The collected licenses will be used by Guinness to authenticate the event. Eight couples who participated will be celebrating their 50th anniversaries in 2008. Of all of the participating couples, Helen and Ed Downing have the distinction of being married the longest; the Downings will be celebrating their 61st wedding anniversary this year.

The event was co-sponsored by TWOgether Pittsburgh, a marriage support initiative in Pittsburgh; Star 100.7, an FM radio station and Great Western Champagne, along with the Carnegie Museums of Art and Natural History. Participating couples were treated to a champagne and wedding cake reception as well as a bag of gifts and special offers.

Who should be in the Wedding Receiving Line and Where Should They Stand

The wedding receiving line generally occurs after the wedding ceremony and before the bride and groom depart for the wedding reception. Occasionally, the wedding receiving line will occur at the beginning of the wedding reception as guests enter the venue. The question then becomes; “Who should be in the wedding receiving line and where should they stand?”.

Ultimately, it is up to the couple to decide who they would like to stand with them in their wedding receiving line. However there are some standard guidelines that can help the couple decide who they want in their wedding receiving line as well as where each person should stand.

It is standard practice for the bride and groom to include their parents in their wedding receiving line. In addition, most couples include their wedding party in the receiving line. Some couples will choose to include just their maid of honor and best man, while others will include the entire bridal party. This can be a hassle if the wedding party is very large. In that instance, it would be best to stick to just the maid of honor and best man in addition to the parents and the bride and groom.

The order of the receiving line is also a decision that is ultimately up to the bride and groom. Most couples choose to stand at the very end of the receiving line so that they are the last people that greet their guests. It is common for the parents of the bride and groom to stand next to the newlyweds and then the bridal party stands at the beginning of the wedding receiving line. If the full wedding party is involved, then the first people in line would be the flower girl and ring bearer followed by the groomsmen and bridesmaids and finally the maid of honor and best man.

Deciding who should be in the wedding receiving line and where they should stand should not be one of the more difficult wedding planning decisions. As long as the couple knows beforehand that they would like to have a wedding receiving line, they can alert their parents and bridal party and choose someone to organize the line on the day of the wedding. With these bases covered, the wedding receiving line should go smoothly!

Running Of The Brides

Nearly 100 brides-to-be participated in the Dallas, TX-area’s first “running of the brides” event on February 10, 2008. The participants waited outside at Capella Court to sift through nearly 200 bridal gowns being sold for USD$99 each. The dresses, which normally retail for anywhere between USD$350-USD$1,000, were sold on a strict cash-only basis and sales were limited to the dresses on hand.

Brides-to-be prepared for battle, and were accompanied by bridesmaids, family and friends to the first-time “dress derby”, which drew comparisons to the annual dress riot held by the East Coast retailer Filene’s. Filene’s was assumed by Macy’s in 2005 and all remaining stores now operate under the Macy’s name. The most efficient participants came with a team of helpers, who found and held dresses, while the brides-to-be tried them on in the store’s limited space.

Participants were looking for good deals, even though some of the brides-to-be confessed to owning a wedding dress already. The derby lasted just four hours, but was deemed a success by Andrea Porter, owner of Circle Park Bridal, which supplied all of the dresses, and by many brides who got fantastic deals on designer gowns.

After The Wedding Watch Your Spending

Brides-to-be and anxious grooms sweat over the details of their weddings in an effort to remain on budget. At stake is cost of what is likely to be the single most expensive event a couple will plan together. Once the wedding is over, some couples forget their cautious spending. That can cause serious problems later.

Couples need to understand each other’s spending styles and priorities well before the wedding day. If one person likes to spend lavishly on home decor, furniture, clothing, cars, gadgets or entertaining, and the other person likes to be financially conservative, the different spending styles could cause severe financial problems down the road.

Having complementary spending styles may not work so well, either. If both members of the couple enjoy spending for the “finer things in life” financial trouble could appear even faster. To avoid this, couples should plan a few sessions with a financial counselor as part of their wedding planning.

Prior to the wedding, engaged pairs should have a serious discussion about finances, including a disclosure of all income, debts and obligations. Further, the couple should work out an estimated budget, and come to an agreement on how bills will be paid, when they will be paid and who is responsible for paying them. If one member’s debt load is likely to impair a joint credit report, the couple may decide that it is better to keep their obligations separated wherever possible.

In addition to disclosure, budgeting and logistics, the couple should agree upon their spending priorities. Supporting those priorities may mean selling vehicles, cutting up credit cards, or opening new savings and investment accounts.

Money problems, including heavy debts assumed after the marriage, are often at the root of marital unhappiness, and are frequently cited in divorce proceedings as the cause of a breakup. Further, the loss of a job, accident and ill-health can compound money problems, making it exceedingly difficult for one or both partners to remain in the marriage.

Queens Grandson Announces Wedding Venue

Peter Phillips, son of the Princess Anne, The Princess Royal and eldest grandson of Queen Elizabeth II, will wed Autumn Kelly at Crathie Kirk, just a short distance from Balmoral Castle in Scotland. A May wedding is planned, however no additional details have been made available.

Mr. Phillips and Ms. Kelly met in 2003 while she worked as a management consultant at the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal. At the time, Mr. Phillips worked for Williams F1 Racing. He now works for the Royal Bank of Scotland in Edinburgh.

Although Mr. Phillips is the Queen’s grandson, he was the first royal baby to have been born a commoner, after his parents reportedly refused the Queen’s offer of a title for him within the Peerage. As such, Mr. Phillips carries out no royal duties and leads a private life. Unless Ms. Kelly, who is Roman Catholic, renounces her faith, Mr. Phillips, who is now eleventh in line to the British throne, will relinquish that claim upon his marriage under the terms of the Act of Settlement 1701.

A Pre-Nuptial Agreement For Bridesmaids

A survey conducted for the British publication You and Your Wedding magazine finds that more than 20 percent of brides-to-be would ask their bridesmaids to sign prenuptial agreements, and would withdraw the invitation to be in the bridal party of those who failed to sign. Among the most popular demands of brides-to-be:

• No weight gains
• No pregnancies
• No hairstyle changes

Following the survey, the magazine formed its own tongue-in-cheek version of a bridesmaid pre-nup which specified how much alcohol a bridesmaid could consume at the wedding, and how they should conduct themselves around male guests.

The survey also found that six out of ten brides would turn to a best friend as a bridesmaid, while less than half would choose a sister for the honour. In addition, fifteen percent of respondents were worried about being upstaged by a bridesmaid on their big day and fourteen percent said at least one bridesmaid made it into the wedding party due to family politics.

The editor of You and Your Wedding suggested that brides are becoming more fussy about their wedding party because eight of ten brides were paying for all or part of the event.

Avoid Being Overcome By Stress of Planning A Wedding

Many couples today find the task of planning a wedding to be a daunting task, in the face of competing priorities in their lives. Time, money, and family can all take their tolls on the wedding planning process. Here are a few tips to help you hang onto your sanity while you plan your wedding.

If you intend to plan your own affair, keeping yourself organised will be a high priority. Set up a filing system immediately to help you track quotes, notes, and the status of major elements of your wedding plan. Keeping your documents in order will relieve a great deal of stress. You’ll need to refer to your notes and quotes often during the planning process. If everything is kept together and orderly, your planning will go much more smoothly.

Use the Internet to do research whenever possible. You’ll be able to do product research, locate retailers, read reviews and gather ideas for your event when you have available time. By knowing what you’re looking for and where you’re likely to find it, you can reduce the number of shopping trips you need to make, saving time and money. Internet research can also help you make purchases online for invitations, stationery, and honeymoon travel.

When you announce your engagement, be prepared for an onslaught of well-meaning (and sometimes misguided) advice on wedding planning. The best defence is to know ahead of time the things that mean the most to you and your spouse-to-be. Don’t allow overbearing parents or other family members to start calling the shots on your big day. This issue often arises if one or both sets of parents pay for some or all of a wedding. If you want to call all of the shots on your big day, pay for the event yourself. You’ll reduce the wear-and-tear on yourself and your intended, and feel more comfortable turning down requests (or demands) from family members.

Generally, the more planning you do, the better you’ll feel about your day. Finding the time to devote to planning a wedding can be a challenge for even the most loving couple. If the time is right for you and your intended to take a walk down the aisle, but event planning isn’t your speciality, consider hiring a wedding coordinator to help you manage the details of your event.

French President Weds Former Model

On Saturday, February 2, French President Nicolas Sarkozy wed his girlfriend Carla Bruni in a private ceremony in the Elysee Palace in Paris in front of about twenty guests. The couple met in October, shortly after Mr. Sarkozy split from his second wife, Cecilia.

Details of the simple ceremony were spare, but the bride wore a white gown and the groom wore a suit and tie. In keeping with French law, the ceremony was performed by the mayor. The couple received a dispensation from other legal requirements, including a published announcement.

The president married in between his official political duties. Mr. Sarkozy indicated in January that he was considering a marriage to Bruni, a singer and former model. Sarkozy was not the first French president to marry while in office, or even at the Elysee Palace. President Gaston Doumergue married there in 1931.

The first couple have not indicated their honeymoon plans. This is the first marriage for Ms. Bruni and the third for Mr. Sarkozy.

Floral Centerpiece Ideas for Your Wedding Reception

Flowers are an integral part of decorating for the wedding ceremony and reception. Many couples choose specific colours and flowers to incorporate into their design. Every table at the wedding reception should include a centerpiece. This gives the table a look of completeness and elegance. Consider these floral centerpiece ideas for your wedding reception.

Over the past several years, topiary designs have become quite popular in floral centerpiece ideas for a wedding reception. Likely, you have seen these topiary designs whether or not you knew what they were called. By definition, a topiary is any plant that is grown and shaped into a geometrical design. A topiary, as it pertains to a wedding is potted and stands tall on the table. The flowers are generally placed together in a round ball and placed at the top of the stalk placed in the pot. The complete design is very elegant.

In direct opposition to the tall topiary floral centerpiece ideas for your wedding, consider much smaller yet just as elegant arrangements. Many couples are choosing to have short, but wide vases or bowls to hold their floral centerpieces at the wedding reception. This allows for a beautiful arrangement, often costs less, and allows guests to be able to see one another over the centerpiece. This is an excellent floral centerpiece idea for your wedding reception, especially if you are on a budget!

Consider the more traditional floral centerpiece ideas for your wedding reception. These are generally beautiful arrangements of flowers in a simple vase or basket. This is a classic option that can be enhanced by using very colourful or out of the ordinary flowers. It is impossible to go wrong with a traditional floral centerpiece idea for your wedding reception.

It is important to remember that a centerpiece does not need to be entirely floral. Many couples choose to add candles and/or mirrors to enhance their floral centerpieces. When choosing from the many options of floral centerpiece ideas for your wedding reception, make sure to look at the florist’s portfolio for the many ideas they can create. Remember, this is your wedding, so make sure that your floral centerpieces are exactly what you want at your wedding reception!

Siblings Share Beach Wedding

Julie King and Cliff Smith wanted to get married on the beach and have their reception at Julie’s brother’s beachside home. Julie’s brother, Gary Watts and his fiancée Leanne Oscar, had a better idea. They asked if they would mind sharing the day, so both couples could get married in front of family and friends.

Gary and Leanne, who live in Warrnambool, planned a joint wedding with Julie and Cliff at Killarney Beach. More than 100 guests joined the double-sized wedding at Watts’ Southern Cross home for a reception.

Watts and Oscar had been engaged for 15 years, and felt the time was right to marry. King and Smith became engaged in Bali and had originally wanted to return there to be married. They decided against it because few of their friends and families could join them there. Leanne and Julie did all of the catering work themselves and the double-do went off without a catch.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith plan to return to Bali for a honeymoon. Mr. and Mrs. Watts did not announce their honeymoon plans.

Jessica Alba Cash Warren Plan Low Key Ceremony

Actress Jessica Alba says she and fiancé Cash Warren will forego a lavish ceremony when they tie the knot. The couple, who are expecting their first child in the spring, would prefer to keep the ceremony small and simple, and have a big reception afterward. Ms. Alba has indicated that she’ll likely marry in a registry office ceremony when the time comes.

Ms. Alba recently told British magazine New! that everyone she knows “hates weddings.” Alba has said previously that she has no plans to wed while she’s pregnant and will wait until well after the wedding to formalise her relationship with Warren.

The couple have been dating since 2005. Ms. Alba, 26, is best known for her work in The Fantastic Four film series. Mr. Warren is a film producer and has produced a documentary about gang life in Los Angeles called Made in America, which is expected to be released later this year. He has also worked on the Fantastic Four series, where he and Alba met.

Dont Cut Wedding Costs Too Close

If you’re planning a wedding, saving money on the event is likely to be a high priority. Some expenses should be carefully considered before they’re submitted to the budget axe.

Flowers: If you want to save money on flowers, the best approach is to budget for reception flowers. Save the flower budget for the location in which your guests will spend the most time. It is possible to move flowers from the wedding site to the reception, but that does add logistical details (and stress!) to the move. If you have your ceremony and reception at one site, you can stretch your flower budget farther. Also, when choosing flowers, look more at colours than specific species. The more stringent your requirements are, the more you’ll spend on flowers.

Catering: Some current advice making the rounds is to tell the caterer that you’re planning a party, instead of a wedding reception. Some folks have noticed that a wedding reception is more expensive. Some caterers have good reason to up the bill when it comes to wedding receptions: they’re more work! Caterers, who often provide the table linens, silverware and food tables in addition to the food, use different equipment to support a wedding. Likewise, the catering staff is responsible for cutting and distributing the cake. If you’re not up-front with the caterer about the type of “party” you’re planning, you may end up with less-than-spectactular reception services, and a caterer who’s caught flat-footed when it comes time to decorate the tables, open the champagne, and provide for the cake-cutting.

Music: Also making the rounds is advice to skip the DJ and load music onto an MP3 player instead. While this will certainly save money, the DJ often functions as the Master of Ceremony for the wedding. He or she keeps the guests entertained, and chooses music based upon the reception crowd. Constant fumbling with an MP3 player, using a poor sound system, and not having someone running the show can leave guests confused about what’s going on, and irritated. It can also make song requests a nightmare. If you plan to go the MP3 route, designate someone to be in charge of the device, and make sure they understand how to operate it.

Third Time’s The Charm For Seattle Couple

A Seattle, Washington man didn’t think twice about diving into the sewer that claimed his wife’s wedding ring. Ryan and Ann Severn have been married for seven years. Mrs. Severn cleans an office building on weekends to make extra money and inadvertently dropped her ring in the parking lot after work one evening. The ring rolled directly into the sewer, and Mrs. Severn burst into tears. Mr. Severn, who was in the lot waiting for his wife, knew just what to do. He stripped down to his underwear and jumped into the drain after the runaway ring.

On his first try, he came up empty-handed, but he wasn’t deterred. He left the lot and returned with a wetsuit to try again to find the ring. After straining the ooze with a homemade strainer, he still hadn’t found the ring. At that point, Mrs. Severn was ready to give up and accept her loss, but Mr. Severn was determined to get the ring back.

On his third attempt, he called in professional help to pump out the drain and continue the search for the ring. His persistence paid off. After a bit of sifting, the ring was found and returned to Mrs. Severn. One thorough cleaning later, the wayward ring was back on her hand.

Wedding Mall Provides All-In-One Shopping Experience for Brides

An innovative mall is gearing up for wedding season. The Wedding Mall in Covington, Kentucky in the US, caters specifically to wedding-related businesses. The Covington location, which has space for sixteen wedding-related businesses, and is at full occupancy, allows brides-to-be to do all of their wedding shopping and planning under one roof. In the US, “wedding season” typically runs from May to October, but wedding-related businesses are at their peak during the “off” months, as brides prepare for their big days.

The mall, with marble floors and chandeliers, features a banquet hall, a bridal shop, a wedding stationer, a jeweller, a florist, a realtor, a bakery, a formal wear shop, a travel agency, a DJ, a cosmetics store and a videographer. The banquet hall is large enough to accommodate up to six receptions simultaneously.

The Wedding Mall is the brainchild of banquet-hall owner Jim Salyers, who decided to open the business after years of referring brides to other wedding businesses. Most brides arrange for the reception space first, and would ask Salyers’ advice about where to go for other wedding services.

The Mall represents a $1 million investment for Salyers and the other tenants, but so far it’s been a success. The mall is open just four days per week, but business is booming.

Wedding Traditions to Incorporate into your Wedding

Every different religion and every different culture have their own wedding traditions. It is important that we try to incorporate these into the wedding ceremony and reception if they are important to our heritage. However, there are certain wedding traditions that are being used all over the world and these can easily be part of any wedding.

Consider the wedding tradition of the bridal bouquet. When the bridal bouquet was first used, it was actually a selection of herbs that were meant to ward off evil spirits. The tradition of tossing the bridal bouquet came much later when in England; it was considered lucky to rip off a piece of the bride’s clothing. The bride would throw the bouquet as a distraction while she ran away. Today, this wedding tradition holds a different meaning. Most people believe that all of the unmarried women should stand behind the bride as she tosses the bouquet and the lucky woman to catch it will be the next woman to marry. This is one of those wedding traditions that is most often used.

Another one of the more popular wedding traditions is the wedding cake. The couple cuts the cake together with the groom’s hand over the bride’s hand and they each serve the cake to the other. This is also a very old tradition that has evolved into what we know and use today. In older days, the bride would cut the cake alone and serve it to her new family signifying her loyalty to them. Now, this tradition is used to signify unity between the couple. Many couples keep the top layer of their wedding cake, freeze it, and eat it on their one year anniversary. This is one of the most beautiful wedding traditions.

Dancing is a wedding tradition that every religion and culture embraces. Whether it is a special dance for everyone to enjoy or simply the first dance between the newlyweds, dancing should be one of those wedding traditions that is incorporated into every wedding. Popular dancing traditions include the first dance between the bride and groom, a dance between the bride and her father as well as the groom and his mother, and a dance with all of the bridal party. Each of these dances is special and the couple can choose songs that have meaning to make this wedding tradition even more personal.

Regardless of which wedding traditions you choose to incorporate into your wedding, it should be special to you and your beloved. Wedding traditions will make your wedding that much more memorable and special to you and your friends and family!
