Wedding Wednesday — Style Icons
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE! www.wyoweddings.com I was reading the newest People Magazine, with a preview of the pending royal nuptials in Britain. One thing struck me — a tip from an observer to Kate & Camilla having lunch together…they said that Kate was mentioning how much she admired Grace Kelly’s wedding. This made me think…here was someone who is already a style icon in her own life, and she has a style icon that SHE looks up to as well! I thought that was pretty neat — and since I already think Kate is pretty darn cool, I was even more excited to read that she and I share…

Rock the Dress!
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE! www.wyoweddings.com *This column does not constitute medical or exercise advice. Never begin a workout program without first consulting with your physician. Having a professional train you in the proper technique is also an important step.

One great place to work, even right up to your wedding day, is your arms. A bit of tone to your arms and…

Sarah’s Top Wedding Tips — THE WEDDING DAY
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE! www.wyomingweddingsonline.com Sarah Merrill of Suite Blooms is back with another set of wedding tips! Take it from someone who’s been there… Thanks Sarah for these great little nuggets of wisdom! TIP: Eat something. You are nervous, pressed for time, and have to look PERFECT, so it would make sense to skip breakfast and or lunch – right? Well maybe not. Your mind isn’t clear when you are hungry – so you are more likely to forget something – like your vows. Additionally, being hungry can make you grouchy and more prone to be impatient with your friends and family. Plan ahead and pack something simple, fresh,…

Sarah’s Top Wedding Tips — PLANNING
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE! www.wyomingweddingsonline.com Sarah Merrill of SuiteBlooms in Cheyenne is back with a new topic! Read on to discover Sarah’s tips for wedding planning… TIP: Double up on your Groom’s Boutonniere. That’s right; buy 2 for him. Here’s why – boutonnieres are already prone to dehydration because they will have been out of water 5+ hours before the wedding. Couple the flowers’ dehydration with the bruising and petal loss that will occur when everyone he knows gives him a hug, and you wind up with a broken, bruised and smashed boutonniere that will make your groom look just as bad as it does. Remember that immediately following that…

FUN WITH THEMES: French Provencal
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE: www.wyomingweddingsonline.com Playing with a fun theme today… French Provencal! A combination of rustic elegance and French details, a little touch of countryside, fruits, wine, cheese…earthy wood tones and elegant lace can combine perfectly! This theme can become pricey quickly, however the feel of Provence can be achieved with inexpensive components too. Use reusable items such as wood cutting boards or pieces of wood in your decorations; scraps of lace to peak out from underneath food trays and cake displays… green glass bottles, white pottery and strands of prairie grass and olives… and other items that you use every day can be collected and incorporated into…

We Love Elizabeth Taylor — The Quintessential Bride…
MGM Productions — 1950 If you haven’t seen the 1950 production of Father of the Bride starring Elizabeth Taylor, you must! It is a charming movie, to say the least. The 1991 version was always a favorite of mine growing up, and when I discovered the 1950 version a few years back, my husband and I had to stay up half the night to watch it. The movie was a hit, with Elizabeth’s dress reportedly designed by Helen Rose, influencing bridal gown trends in the early 50’s. http://pasttrends.fuzzylizzie.com/hollywood.html The world said good-bye to an icon of American cinema, and she will be missed…but her memory lives on in her many…
