Are Expensive Wedding Favors A Waste Of Money?

Are Expensive Wedding Favors A Waste Of Money?

By: Noel Swanson

Source: fresnoweddings.net via FresnoWeddings.Net on Pinterest

Elegant wedding favors are an exquisite way of passing the luck on to your guests according the ancient Roman tradition. Moreover it is a beautiful way to exemplify your gratitude towards your guests.

One of the most elegant wedding favors is the tradition of the five different colored Jordan almonds was used to portray the bitter and the sweet of matrimony. The wedding couple can explain further and attach a note explaining the significance of each metallic colored almond. Each one of the almonds represented happiness, long life, fertility, health and wealth.

Although everyone has his or her own opinion as to what is elegant or not, an elegant wedding favor idea what stood the test of time is silver bottle openers. In fact, any practical silver item with the date of your wedding and your names engraved on it can serve as an elegant wedding favor.

Silver-plated picture frames and silver clip stands serving as place card holders will always be regarded as popular and elegant wedding favors together with silver plated glass coasters and wine stoppers. Stainless steel can be deemed just as elegant as silver. A stainless steel key ring engraved with your names and wedding date on a charm is timeless and a very useful elegant wedding favor.

Before you indulge in selecting the ideal elegant wedding favors of your choice, make sure that the style portrayed through the elegance of your wedding favor are suitable or fits in to the overall theme of your wedding and more importantly to the style of the bride and groom. If you require elegant wedding favors but less formal than silver, chrome and stainless steel you will find just as many different options to choose from that can relate well to the theme of the wedding.

A metal seashell shape bookmark is an elegant favor without the glitz and glamour of silver for your beach wedding and can be used by anyone and reasonably priced at $2.50 each. Candles can serve very well as elegant wedding favors. Pure rolled beeswax candles are available in a wide range of sizes and the size will determine the price.

One last important thing to remember before you go off to choose your ideal elegant wedding favor is to place your order well before your wedding day. This way you will be sure to present your wedding guests with the elegant wedding favors you intended to.

Top Designer Wedding Dress Styles

Top Designer Wedding Dress Styles

By: Arianna Jordan

Dere Kiang Wedding Dress 11088

We often forget that while weddings are one of the most fabulous and special moments of a couple’s life, they can also be very stressful, especially when it comes to choosing the gown. Many brides begin their search for that perfect dress even before a ring is on their finger, which is why it is always helpful to be aware of the top designer wedding dress styles.

Deciding which designer wedding dress style to go with can be a very, very difficult decision for a bride-to-be. This decision, although quite fun in the making, can be very daunting and can end up leading to major frustration and even some inevitable “bridezilla” moments for the most subdued and organized bride. If there is anything any wedding needs less, it is an unhappy bride.

We have all heard that the wedding dress is the highlight of the day, of course aside from seeing the blushing bride make her entrance and way down the aisle. So much emphasis and importance is placed on the wedding dress, the bride may end up feeling a lot of pressure when it comes time to make that important decision. The secret to finding the right designer wedding dress is to find one that you can afford that also makes you feel happy and beautiful while flattering your figure.

Why Choose a Designer Wedding Dress

Choosing to go for a designer wedding dress is a great way to obtain the perfect wedding gown. Working one-on-one with the designer will allow you to feel in control of what you are getting, in control of your finances, and in control of the overall look and style of your dress. While the designer will do most of the hard work, he or she will work closely with you to make sure that you are happy and love the gown for your big day.

f you are going to choose a designer wedding dress for your special day, it is imperative that you think about the different dress styles before you even walk through the designer’s door. One of the most important things to consider when choosing a designer wedding dress is your personal style and taste. There are so many different designer wedding dress styles to choose from that you may just need to flip through some wedding magazines before speaking to your designer.

How Designer Wedding Dresses Differ

Today, simple and elegant bridal gowns are very much the norm with less emphasis placed on excessive beading and embellishments. This is not to say that these designer wedding dress styles are boring and bland. It is actually quite the opposite. With simple and elegant dress styles, it is all about the fabric and the color. Wispy silk chiffon in layers of ivory and white give spring brides the ethereal look of a garden fairy. Colorful silk gowns allow for winter brides to pop with beauty and individuality.

While the color and fabrics of designer wedding dresses change from season to season, the main styles do not. If you are the type of bride that loves the “tried and true” looks always keep these classic designs in mind. The a-line, or princess, the ball gown, the sheath, the empire, and the mermaid are all designer wedding dress styles that will never go out of fashion. The secret to which is best for you will always be determined by which one makes you feel the prettiest and which one flatters your figure the most.

Getting a Deal on Designer Wedding Dresses

Regardless of which designer wedding dress style you end up choosing, getting a deal is always a welcome attribute of the experience. We all know that a custom-made designer wedding dress can cost a pretty penny, so why not shop around. Visit a local designer or dressmaker and see if they have any floor samples or runway samples that can be sold for a reduced price.

If you have already found the designer dress of your dreams but it is too far out of your price range, why not take a photograph (from a magazine, for example) to a dressmaker and see if he or she can make their own version of it. There is no shame in saving money on your wedding dress, and it’s great to know that you can get a beautiful designer wedding dress even if you’re on a budget. Every woman deserves to feel like the most beautiful woman in the world on her wedding day, and as long as your wedding dress makes you feel like a beautiful bride, there is no reason not to choose the most elegant designer wedding dress available.

Where the Tradition of Tossing the Bridal Bouquet Began

2012-05-21T13:54:00.000-07:00

Where the Tradition of Tossing the Bridal Bouquet Began

Filed under: Bride's Bouquet — By: Larry James

In one of the final scenes of “Clueless” starring Alicia Silverstone as Cher, she and her friends go up to catch the bouquet at her teacher’s wedding. The bride throws the bouquet with her back turned and the ladies scramble to be the one to catch it ending up on the ground, with Cher coming out the victor.

“Now, now, girls. Don’t fight!

The tossing of the bouquet is an important and fun wedding tradition, especially for all the single women at a wedding. However, compared to some fights over the bouquet I’ve witnessed, that scene can be considered quite tame. Besides the superstitious belief that the lady who catches the bouquet will be the next to wed, have you ever wondered why catching the bouquet is such a big deal, or why the bride even bothers to throw it in the first place? Whether you believe this or not, it is a great way of entertaining guests and the girl who catches the bouquet will also have a souvenir of the wedding to take home.

Apparently, in medieval Europe, (around the 14th century) a bride’s dress was considered good luck for other women and a type of fertility charm. The wedding dress was considered such good luck that single women chased the bride and actually ripped off pieces of her dress to bring them good luck (aka a husband). To prevent guests from ripping the wedding dress, brides began throwing other objects as a distraction, with the bouquet becoming the most traditionally thrown object.
The wedding bouquet is particularly suited to this use, as flowers symbolize fertility, and as perishable items, they are not something the bride would mind pried from her fingers (at least they didn’t grab the ring and run!) The bouquet was also a safer item to toss than the garter, as unruly and impatient wedding guests were sometimes known to try to take the garter from the bride while she was still wearing it. (We promise we’re not making this up).

Thankfully the tradition of throwing the bouquet has become more of a fun wedding activity rather than an expected event, although there are a few overzealous women who may knock the bride down to get the bouquet. Some brides don’t even throw a bouquet anymore, deciding instead to give her flowers to her mother to keep, or divide the bouquet among her bridal party. Other brides have been known to have an extra bouquet to throw instead of the one she carried during the ceremony. However if you’re bent on honoring wedding traditions, make sure you throw your bouquet from a safe or guarded position (We suggest behind a makeshift wall of groomsmen!)

Cut Your Wedding Costs By Shopping Smart

Ask any bride-to-be what one of her biggest concerns is and she will probably tell you sticking to a budget. Just about every bride and groom is looking for deals to help them save money on their wedding.

Today's couples have so many reasons to want to save money on the big day. With rising costs for basic necessities such as housing, food and gas it is often hard to make ends meet, even with dual incomes. After the dream wedding the bride and groom may start planning for their dream home and starting a family. Perhaps there are children involved from a previous a marriage. If so then merging these two families will bring additional expenses.

Fortunately, couples can save money on their wedding in many ways. Something that has gained popularity over the years is shopping on internet auctions such as eBay. Anyone familiar with eBay knows that you can find just about anything you are looking for. From wedding favors to wedding gowns, shopping on eBay has become very popular. One man did quite well when he sold his wife's wedding dress after his divorce. His listing brought a lot of attention with a picture of the man actually wearing the gown! This funny listing not only got him a good price but several marriage proposals!

Before bidding on any type of online auction decide exactly how much you are willing to pay for an item. Many times you will be happy to pay much less than you were willing to spend but other times the bidding can get fierce. This might happen if you and several other brides are interested in a particular item that is hard to find. By keeping a budget in mind you wont have any second thoughts about how much money you've spent.

A great challenge of shopping online is that you don't get to touch; feel and see up close the items that you are purchasing. When buying something like a wedding gown - this can become quite challenging. Some sellers will offer a return policy and others don't. Remember to be fair when trying on an online auction gown: don't wear makeup that could smear on the gown. Be gentle with it to avoid tearing. Also note if the gown has any stains or other marks and let the buyer know -- especially so they don't think, somehow that you made these marks yourself. Do all that you can to make the return process easy. Ship the gown back via UPS, Federal Express or some other shipping method that will obtain a signature and has shipping insurance.

Another way brides have been saving money is by shopping at consignment stores. Consignment stores have been around for years. Some actually specialize in wedding gowns; check some of the larger cities near you to see if there are some of these consignment stores available to you.
Consignment shops do lack the variety of bridal shops. If you find the gown of your dreams at a bridal shop you can simply order the size that you need. With consignment shops you wont be so lucky. You may find a beautiful gown but if it is isn't the right size then you will probably have to keep looking unless it can be altered. Many consignment shops wont have anyone available for alterations so try and find a good seamstress before you start shopping and have one less thing to worry about.

Another disadvantage to consignment shopping is that you need to make a decision quickly. The gown you fell in love with yesterday may be gone when you come back for it the next day. Try bringing a family member or friend whose opinion you trust when shopping. Then you will feel confident about your purchase and thrilled with the money you have saved!
But shopping at eBay or at a consignment store can have huge benefits. Your dress can be less than 50% of what you would pay otherwise. If you are willing to be a bit flexible about what type of dress you wear, you'll have plenty of options. This can be a great way for a bride to save money for her wedding.

Autumn Theme

Typically, Autumn weather tends to be on the cool side. The summer flowers have begun to disappear, but the Fall colors of nature have taken their place. Earth tones and textures will definitely set the tone for your wedding. By incorporating ‘warmer’ colors and textures into this wedding theme, you’re creating a inviting environment for your bridal party and guests. Embrace Autumn colors, such as: brown, rust, copper, red, terra cotta, and gold. You can easily arrange tables in a ‘harvest theme’ with fruits and candles bearing typical Fall Colors. Set each place card on a large leaf shaped fabric napkin. Decorate the reception hall with a rustic look. Dried wheat, berries, and grasses can make an excellent touch. Serve foods that are simple and ‘warm’ in nature. Fruits, soups, cheeses, home-made bread, seasonal vegetables, and pumpkin pie should delight your guests.

Winter Theme

Gorgeous Winter Themed Wedding Reception

Although most couples opt to have their weddings in warmer weather, winter weddings can be very elegant and appealing. This festive time of year embraces warmth and the glowing lights of candles. It’s a very romantic time that emphasizes the idea of togetherness. Silver and gold are very traditional winter colors. They blend very well together and can be beautifully incorporated into your wedding decorations. Instead of red roses, why not choose a bouquet of white roses? This will look especially spectacular if you have a hint of silver and/or gold in your wedding accessories. Create an ambient environment with candles and white Christmas lights. Break tradition! Instead of having a white wedding cake, Get a three tiered chocolate wedding cake accented with white décor.

Spring Theme

Spring is an exciting time of year to get married. The world is alive and about again after a long hibernation. The morning dew and the smell of rain is refreshing and romantic. Pastel colors sprout from the earth, as we start to smell the faint aroma of tulips and daffodils. These flowers would work perfectly in your Spring wedding theme. Pastel colors are soft, subtle, and elegant. You can decorate your tables with small potted daffodils and use flower-seeds as a wedding favor for your guests. Candles and ivy can bring a warm ‘garden feel’ to the atmosphere.

Summer Theme

It’s the most popular time of year for couples to tie the knot. Summer weather brings the promise of gorgeous flowers, comfortable attire, and delicious foods from mother nature. Decorate with bright colors. Why not organize a tropical wedding? Spice it up and dress your bridesmaids in lime, orange, or hot pink. Forget about tuxedos for the men, how about bright colors for shirts and comfortable suits? Salads, vegetables, pink champagne, and light foods are the way to go for your meal. You should always offer your guests something slightly more extravagant for the main course, but these light dishes have a ‘summer feel’ to them.
