I have recently made a discovery in the world of bridal fashion. The circlet.
 
I’m sure many of you are rolling your eyes, but I am a little fashion . . . um . . . shall we say backward? More than the wedding dress I’ve been giving my headpiece some thought.
 
I know a tiara [...]

I just read an article from The Age, in Australia, (hooray Internet!) which took a look at the wedding from the groom’s perspective.
 
The article opens with a man talking about his friend, a groom-to-be, who’s dreading going home at the end of the day because he has to talk about serviette rings.
 
Enough said.
 
It’s important not [...]

Well, I’m back from Thanksgiving with a quart of my mom’s turkey soup in the fridge and a little vacation from wedding planning behind me.
 
I did read an interesting article, though, about music placement in the wedding ceremony on americanchronicle.com. This is something I haven’t actually given a lot of thought to, but the article [...]

I’m taking a couple of days off from blogging (and wedding planning) to enjoy the holidays.
 I’ll be back blogging on Monday. Have a good one!

Ed and I attended Portland’s wedding expo last Friday. It was small, and we blew through it in just about two hours. But I’m glad we went. Having a destination wedding of sorts, it allowed us to meet with several representatives from hotels around Portland and talk with them face-to-face about group rates.

I recently read a press release that said pashminas are the latest rage in bridal attire. Okay, I know, it’s a press release; take it with a grain of salt. But it did get me thinking . . .
 
These light cashmere shawls are a great for spring, fall and winter weddings. They come in a variety [...]

There was a great article on MSN lifestyles this week: “10 Biggest Mistakes Wedding Guests Make.”
 
Some of these issues had me trembling in my veil: Guests that invite others to your wedding, don’t RSVP at all or showing up late (as in walking down the aisle right behind the bride). But some on the list [...]

I’ve discovered a little dress shop in Bolton, Mass., that will make your wedding dress for you.
 
What makes this shop so special is the pieces of the wedding dress are already there – think of it as trying on a bikini; you mix and match the top and bottom to create a wedding dress that’s [...]

Ed and I have set a wedding date: Sept. 20, 2008.
 
So it’s real. We’re getting married. We’ve got a reception hall – or a reception pub – and a wedding date. Yikes!
 
Now I’m at a loss as to what to do next. A coworker who was married just a few years ago recommended that I [...]
