Bridal: Invites with Personality

When it comes to invitations, they come in all shapes and sizes.  Some are simple while others are over the top and loud. Check this one out from revelry invitations. What do you guys think?

Bridal: Two for One

Long and short 2 in 1 convertible wedding gown with detachable train and skirt from Max Chaoul Couture 2010 bridal collection
Check out this awesome dress from Max Chaoul. If you are the type of bride who has a flare for the dramatic or you just like changing outfits, consider dresses that offer two styles of dress in one! This designer has some great choices to pick from.  (the website is in French, you may need to translate the site)

Bridal: Some of my Favorite Outfits!



 This pic is from summer 2009 and the dress was purchased at Forever 21. (Oh, don't worry about that handsome glass of water next to me, he's just my fiancée.)




This was taken in July 2010 at my fiancée's sister's bridal shower. The skirt and shirt i'm wearing are clothes I had hanging around. I am pictured here with his younger sister (not the bride) who is about 5'7" and although you can't tell, my shoes are about 4½ - 5 inches high.



An August 2010 wedding, I'm wearing a dress purchased at Marciano. Check out the closeup of my FAVORITE shoes in the world! (my mom thinks they're gaudy, lol)


Bourne Shoes: Anya


This is a better look at what my makeup looked like the day of that wedding above. The lashes are real, I used a lash curler and mascara to ahieve this look.

Welcome!

So, I'm really excited to finally have started a blog. I've been exploring blogs of others quite frequently, and thought, that maybe I should probably do one. Hence, my very own blog before your eyes. The purpose for making a decision to do a blog came from always going on the web and looking up different types of outfits for various occasions.  What will be different about my blog is that it will cater to a specific type of female: the obsessed bride.  That's me! When I was an itty bitty girl, I always knew that one day I'd get married.  Then I got older and was introduced what in today's world is called "dating". I started meeting all types of guys and became so discouraged. Were there not any GOOD men out there?  That's when I gave up the idea of marriage and was convinced that marriage was not for me.  Then I met him. He was right there this whole time, but I was so involved in meeting new people, I almost didn't see what was right there in front of my face. That, and the boy just couldn't leave me alone. (He's so GREAT!) After we became an item, I just knew that this was it and soon, I began planning for a wedding that didn't even exist yet. Yes, I know, I became a future obsessed bride!
