Watters & Watters vs. Vera Wang

December 31st, 2006 @ 1:29 pm by Mrs. Raspberry

The decision about the bridesmaid’s dresses still hasn’t been made. I thought that we had decided on this Watters & Watters dress in the Amber Rose, but it is $240 and so plain that I wanted to look around just a little more.

Inform Us…

“We suggest having the ring bearer carry a pillow with two inexpensive symbolic rings instead of the actual bands. We have heard horror stories of rings falling off the pillow and bridesmaids on hands and knees in the church foyer searching desperately on the wildly patterned carpet for them. Fortunately, in all stories, the rings were recovered; however, we believe the wedding bands are always…

MBT Shoes

December 30th, 2006 @ 6:00 pm by Mrs. Bee

Awhile back I heard about MBT (Masai Barefoot Technology) sneakers from a friend who swears by them, and I was intrigued. MBT sneakers have special multi-layered soles that are designed to change the way you walk, so you workout your entire body while you wear them. They’re supposed to tone your legs, back and stomach, and improve balance, posture, and varicose veins.

At around $250 per…

Christmas Wedding Idea

December 30th, 2006 @ 5:17 pm by Mrs. Raspberry

Mr. Raspberry’s mom hung all of these Christmas ornaments as decorations for the holidays, and it sparked an idea to have bulbs like this hung all over the ceiling of the reception site in shades of champagne and gold. The sparkle they throw off is incredible!

Also, I used the photoshop tips Mrs. Bee posted about earlier to make them stand out in this photo.

Getting Your Hair “Did”

December 30th, 2006 @ 2:37 pm by Mrs. Strawberry

In my quest to find some pretty hairstyles for the big day, I stumbled across the site of celebrity hairstylist and makeup artist Matt Yeandle. His work is amazing! He does everything from hair extensions (which I am soooo getting!) to Japanese hair straightening. Here are few pictures of his styling for inspiration. Okay…far more than a few!! Enjoy!

Colors!

December 30th, 2006 @ 1:07 pm by Mrs. Lime

After much hemming and hawing, I finally picked my colors so that I could move on with my wedding planning life. Introducing red + soft aqua, with touches of white + chocolate brown where neutrals are required…

Being the neurotic that I am, I will probably do the above again with paints next time I am back in my office.

Dress Recycling

December 29th, 2006 @ 4:56 pm by Mrs. Lemon

I was flipping through In Style Weddings a few months ago when I happened upon a nifty idea: recycling your mother’s wedding dress for your rehearsal dinner. I immediately called my mom and asked her to search her closet for her 1976 dress, and when I arrived home for the holidays the dress was hanging in my closet.

My mom’s height and size aren’t exactly the same…

Ebay Finds

December 29th, 2006 @ 4:28 pm by Mrs. Strawberry

Since getting engaged, I have become addicted to ebay. I find any excuse I can to buy something for the wedding. Things I don’t need like these buffet markers. Necessary? No. Not at all. I’m going to use them to denote cupcake flavors.

Making The Cover

December 29th, 2006 @ 4:00 pm by Mrs. Blueberry

While lounging on my parents’ couch last week, taking advantage of the free room and board, tons of DVDs and amazing food, I was reading a copy of Time magazine and saw an ad for Making the Cover. It’s a free program that let’s you create your own magazine cover.
