Need Help With Ideas?

Hey Fab Brides!

Every once in a while I get writers block and you may notice I don't post for a while. Well it's just like having a block on creative wedding ideas. I have the perfect solution for you! I suggest purchasing a few wedding idea books. 

My favorite are by the FABULOUS Preston Bailey. If you don't know who he is, Google him ASAP!. He is the one of the most sought after wedding planners in the country. If you don't have time to make it the book store, try ordering them from Amazon. 

Here are a few of his books. Happy planning!

Have It Your Way!

Hey Fab Brides!

When it is time for you to pick out your flowers, table settings or cake make sure your opinion is heard and listened to!!! So what if the vender you chose does not have your perfect idea in their portfolio. Consider bringing in a picture of something you would like to see at your wedding. 

I suggest putting together a notebook of clippings from magazines or printouts from

your favorite wedding sites. Take this notebook to all of your appointments so that your vendor will know exactly what you are talking about. Remember, you'll never know if it can be done unless you ask. 

Be ORGANZIED, Be PREPARED, and remain FABULOUS!!!

Maggy London to the Rescue!

Hey Fab Brides,

Last night I was speaking to a friend who is in the process of planning her wedding. We began to talk about the bridesmaid dresses. She's young and fabulous and wants the dresses to have the same feeling.

My wheels began turning and Maggy London came to mind. You may have first heard of the brand when Sex and the City The Movie came out. Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) wore a dress by the designer. I know you're thinking if this was in Sex and The City it must be expensive, quite the contrary. I found a few of her great dresses at Nordstrom. They come in great colors and styles to fit any style of wedding. The dresses range from $78-$168. Check them out and let me know what you think!

Don't Go There!

Hey Fab Brides!

Have you ever told a friend you wanted to buy something and she purchased the same thing? It can be infuriating! Now imagine you told a friend about your wedding ideas and she stole your ideas because she happened to get married first. LADIES THIS IS A HUGE NO NO!!!!! Don't do it, it's not worth it.

If the idea never crossed your mind before, don't cross your friend by stealing her ideas from her dream wedding.
