Jewels, Jewels and More Jewels

What makes any lousy day a little better? Or any good day, for that matter? Jewelry, of course. A nice triple-strand necklace with pearls and crystals should do the trick. I don't know who the heck Swarovski is, but if you like crystal, his should work. Or hers. I dunno....

Fastest Bed-Maker Wins

| | Comments (0)

Fortunoff is hosting a bunch of 'Wedding Survival Challenge Events', with contests like Fastest Bed Making, Drink-Mixing, Table-Setting and other highly romantic, fun stuff. If you're not already stressed enough, this sounds like a splendid way to fling yourself right over the edge.

On the other hand, prizes include a flat screen TV, china and the like. So maybe it's worth the suffering...

A Shameless Plug

Unless you're lucky enough to have all of your bridesmaids living in the same town, getting them fitted for dresses is like childbirth, without the nice medication.

May we recommend the Bridesmaid.com Interactive Planner? It's neat, I promise. You can select a style, or enter your own, enter the e-mail addresses of your bridesmaids, and then let the system contact them all for sizing info, comments and such. When you're done you can print a sheet out with all their information, and you're good to go.

And we won't give your information out to anyone, I promise.

Dressing the Groom

OK, who here trusts their husband-to-be to get his own tuxedo? Raise your hands? Yeah, that's what I thought.

After Six has a great selection of tuxes. And they just came out with some new stuff. Have a look - their tuxedos look pretty good to me, and you can keep your betrothed out of trouble, too.

Here's a quick article about keeping your bridesmaids happy. Can't help you with the relatives who all want to sit in the front row, or the 300 friends who want to stay at your apartment, but at least your bridal party will be right there with ya.

From Mints to Hair Spray

| | Comments (0)

The Wedding Day Essentials Kit is a nifty must-have. Especially if you're 2 months from the Big Day and already waking up screaming from that nightmare. You know the one - where you're walking down the aisle with hair askew because you couldn't find any hair spray. Or your dress ripped and you don't have any way to fix it. Or your parents show up in bermuda shorts... Wait, skip that last one.
