Wedding Dress Shopping

Monday, February 13, 2012

There are few events in life that are as exciting and stressful, as shopping for you wedding dress. Here are a few tips on how to keep sane and ensure your dress arrives on time.

- It takes 6-9 MONTHS to order a wedding dress, go early
- Don’t bring an entourage, keep it to three people total
- Keep an open mind, how it looks on the hanger isn’t close to how it will on you
- Have an idea of the style you would like, bring pictures
- Go with a budget, let the sales person know the budget
- Go on an off day of the week, during the day (Monday – Thursday)
- Make appointments
- Do your makeup and hair, you’ll feel better in the dress
- Don’t be upset if you have to go up 2 – 4 sizes, it’s normal
- Don’t just start looking, it will overwhelm you

New Logo // Same Company

Saturday, February 11, 2012

As you will notice over the coming weeks (it’ll take a little while) our logo has changed, it was time for a repaint. Nothing else has changed, we’ve had the same logo for almost five years and it just wasn’t suiting our direction anymore. We’re extremely happy with the new look.

Big Summary

Saturday, February 4, 2012

Well, if you’re a regular follower you may have noticed a few technical issues this week with the blog and website going back and forth from old to new. That should all now be resolved, thank you for your patience. We had to unfortunately switch servers (AGAIN, we have bad luck in this department, hopefully third times a charm) due to people not receiving emails. If you emailed us with in the last week and we haven’t replied, please resend, we’d love to chat, we probably just did not receive your email.

Now onto some fun stuff, we have a bunch of pretty cool things going on:

Shandro Photo has a giveaway for a free engagement photoshoot and guestbook, along with a $75 Stella + Dot credit from me. Click here for this giveaway.

Whimsical Cake also has a big giveaway going on with lots of wedding vendors, you’re going to want to win something from all those prizes, perhaps even the beautiful necklace I’ve donated. Click here for this giveaway.

Blake Loates Photography is having an open house, she has hired us on to help plan the event for her. She just acquired a studio for herself, it’s beautiful.

We are featured in February issue of Weddings in Alberta, you’ll need to pick up a copy!

We were also recently featured on Wedding Obsession, click here to see some fabulous inspiration.

Wow, lots going on, and that’s just the stuff we can tell you about. Stay tuned we have lots more going on, and again, thank you for your patience and continued follower-ship!

Cheers!
