ATTENTION BRIDES TO BE!




Hi,
Hope he is the man of your dreams and the proposal exceeded your wildest dreams. Now the preparation craze has begun. You are running around like crazy and a headless chicken aint got nothing on you. You are hung up on every single detail and you cant seem to find the perfect things as you had envisioned. You are probably crashing every wedding you hear about to try and steal some ideas.Well I wish I had a magic wand to make everything just right for you but all I have is a few suggestions with regard to your day's fashion.
As a bride you want to look your best especially because this will only happen once..........for some of us. Do not try and look like all the other brides you have seen. Try out something different. Go big with your wedding gown. Have one custom made or choose a unique design unlike the ones you have seen before. Here are some ideas of what you could try and look for..........



Now that you have something in mind for you there that other issue of your brides maids. Of course they should not look even nearly as fabulous at you but keeping mind you will have photos of that day for a very long time. So give them  a little permission to look a little fancy-eh! Hey are some cocktail dresses that can be transformed into great bridal dresses.










And then there are the flower girls.........some suggestions here!
So Do you now have a rough idea of what you want your line up to look like? Get in touch with us to make it happen.
Email addilifordesign@gmail.com we are looking forward to participating in making your big day a success in our own special way!
