Plan a Retro Lingerie Party for You and Your Bridesmaids
Los Angeles wedding photographerSarah Yates captures some of the most incredible photos I've seen. And when I stumbled upon this retro lingerie photo shoot, I immediately thought... bachelorette party idea!! Gone are the days of raunchy bachelorettes (thank God). Brides today are embracing their stylish sides and unique personalities, and trusty bridesmaids are planning accordingly. When you think of the perfect bachelorette, I doubt you think male strippers, shots of tequila and...

Question for Brides: Do You Feel Pressure to Pick Hot Bridesmaids?
As I pore over featured wedding submissions to publish on our blog, I can't help but notice one thing. There's a blushing bride, a handsome groom, and a smokin' hot group of bridesmaids. This always seemed a bit counterintuitive to me (maybe it was that Bridezillas episode featuring an overwieght, unhappy bride who banned her groom's attractive little sis from the bridal party). Bur during a recent wedding meetup here in Chicago, a photographer shed light on what's driving the hot...

Adorable Junior Bridesmaid Dresses by Bride Chic
About Bride Chic She's not young enough to be a flower girl; not quite old enough to be a real bridesmaid. To Americans junior bridesmaids may seem like a relatively new idea but girls twixt ten and fifteen have been gracing European weddings for centuries where the bridal party is made up primarily of children ranging in age from about four to sixteen. So how do you dress a girl between ten and fifteen? By fourteen she can probably go with or a least echo the adult bridesmaids. If...
Bubbly Bride: Think Outside The Box When Searching For Bridesmaid Dresses!
About Bubbly Bride I often find many bridesmaids' dresses very... well... ‘bridesmaidy’. Which is why I think that you hear so often ‘I will never be able to wear this again’. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, but for some brides who are looking for something a little more I think it is worth the search. In my opinion, if you are spending $250+ on a dress, you better love it and want to wear it again. Much of the time I think you can find stunning dresses without even...
Bubbly Bride: Put Yourself in Your Bridesmaid Dress
About Bubbly Bride We have all heard the saying "Put yourself in the others shoes." I am suggesting that you put on more than just shoes, and put yourself in your bridesmaid dress! Yes, I am suggesting as a bride that you spend the time to literally try on the bridesmaids' dresses before officially choosing 'the dress'. It is easy to flip through photos and look at dresses on models to pick a dress color/style that you want for your wedding. But you will be surprised, a dress...
Nail Polish Debacle: Coordinating Polish Colors For Your Bridesmaids?
On Saturday, I decided to treat myself to a pedicure. I was looking forward to a relaxing time, but the second I walked into the nearly empty salon, I heard it… “Oh.My.Gosh. This is so ugly. Omg, this is hideous! Look at this, do you see this color, this is disgusting, ohmygosh, ohmygosh, do you see this?” The rant continued, with some whimpers and voice cracks thrown in for good measure. As hard as I tried, I could not wrap my mind around what could have gone so far awry in...
