Wedding Color of this year 2012

Color schemes which can be in this year???
Although you can find out lots of about wedding colors trends here, but what do I think?

Black. Black. Black. All black everything. Basically, the color scheme of modern day black and white has grow to be exceptionally well known. You can find even black wedding dresses! Vera Wang developed one herself (stay tuned). The modern day black and white color scheme is pretty chic. As a matter of fact, when we meet with clients for the initial time, we generally give the bride our signature white roses tied having a black satin bow and adornment wrapped in clear black & white damask sheets. Here are a few ideas using this new black and white trend: read more »

‘Free’ is an excellent cost amount for a wedding

 

In case you are brave enough with an exterior party, have a look at your own garden. And other individuals: Does family members as well as family pal have got nervous feelings involving material as well as a property with plenty of room? 

Our little girl and your ex fiance-to-be were spending lower medical-related personal debt and also vowed to not go much deeper in the red-colored as a way to get married. The particular location, a most likely significant cost, switched to become free of charge: the social area in your area wherever the woman’s in-laws and also laws existed. read more »

The nearly three-kilometre ivory train on the model’s wedding gown billowed out over a main boulevard in Romania’s capital.

The Guinness Book of World Records recently recognised the item on the silk and lace wedding gown as the longest bridal train, beating a previous record held by a Dutch designer.

But pedestrians didn’t seem to make much of the overnight media event, which was organised by the artefact’s creators: the Andree Salon fashion house and the organisers of this year’s biannual Wedding Fair in Bucharest.

World’s most expensive wedding cake appears in China

expensive wedding cake beijing

This is a wedding cake created by Black Swan Luxury (黑天鹅尊贵至美) which is a branch of mass bakery in China called  Holiland (好利来).

The price tag of this cake?  1,999,999 RMB (approximately $315,000 USD) 

To me, the cake isn’t that special, it is a 5 tiers wedding cake with one color, and it is surrounded by some white chocolate swans. It is tagged as the signature cake of the wedding cake bakery. Black Swan appears to have cracked China’s uber-spender market by appealing to buyers at state-owned enterprises, official gift-givers and the not insignificant number of people with crazy money to burn and a desire to flaunt their bonfires.

But why I am not surprised when I read the news? In nowadays China, people are struggling to find ways to spend their money, especially those who got rich in the last 20 years. And it appears that wedding cake is the next media that they will use to show off their money,

I look at the picture above, and look at the wedding cakes covered by my favourite wedding cake specialist in Vancouver, I feel so blessed that I have accesses to such nice wedding cakes in Vancouver without spending 100K on it.

Introducing bride and groom at reception

You have to take into account the formality of the wedding and what you feel comfortable with. “Mr. and Mrs. Dave Linn” or “May and Dave Linn” are both valid options. If a bride is choosing to retain her maiden name, the couple may choose to be introduced by their full individual names, such as “May Golden and Dave Linn.” They may also be introduced by their first names only, which is typically more informal, but also an option.
