Indian Summer

When i started designing this post i never expected that i'd spend the next few days obsessing over the gorgeous colour, decorations and beauty that are all part of an Indian Hindu wedding. Actually i do know a little bit about these, you see, i almost married an Indian man, but it came down to my career or my love... i chose my career (well i thought that both would be able to work together, but he didn't see it the same way). Anyway my point is that once upon a time, i too was looking at planning a Hindu wedding, and if you are lucky enough to be planning your day, i hope you use a rainbow of rich opulent colours like i would.

My New Obsession... This Way - That Way

Where has the past week gone? I think i've managed to lose a few days in cyber space as i've waltzed through pages and pages of designers Spring 2011 bridal collections. If anything has come of it, it is this... i've decided i can never possibly get married! Honestly, i don't think i could do it. I mean, how would i ever be able to choose just one dress?

So it was during this week of cyber bridal dress shopping, that my obsession began... reception dresses! At one time it was customary for a bride to change into a 'going away' outfit to farewell her guests, as she and her husband left for their honeymoon. But nowadays it's not so much a wardrobe change for the holiday flight, instead a glamorous dress change is made to prepare for a night of dancing and partying with family and friends. With my dilemma of not possibly being able to choose just one wedding dress, i've formed an obsession for matching an equally glamorous, more comfortable, reception dress with traditional bridal gowns, that way being able to wear two gorgeous wedding dresses on your wedding day !! Yay !!!

And so here it is... This Way (the ceremony way), and That Way (the reception way), my new weekly post (or obsession) of gorgeous gowns.

This Way: Monique Lhuillier

That Way: Marchesa

It's A Nice Day For A ... White Party

I've always wanted to host a white party, probably because i've always had loads of fun when i've been to one (especially the New Years Eve white party on Copacabana Beach in Rio De Janerio... amazing !!). Imagine a white garden party with sheer, pure white fabrics floating in the breeze, flowers bunched together like fluffy white clouds and guests mingling dressed in fabulous fresh white fashion....aaahhhh so dreamy.

Thank You Mum!

How do you even begin to thank your Mum for looking after you and nurturing you into the woman that you have become as you stand before her on your wedding day? Well here is a beautiful, invaluable gift idea that is sure to bring a tear to her eyes.

Arrange with your photographer to have a photo taken that replicates one of your Mum and Dad on their wedding day. Then, have the two images framed side by side... and let the gift speak for itself. Completely priceless !!! (well, except for the photographer on the day of course... hahaha).
