Liz's #WeddingWednesday

When Liz came in shopping for her wedding gown she knew what she was looking for! She picked it out in record time! Liz looked amazing and she was simply glowing on their wedding day!
“We married underneath a canopy of trees in the backyard of our home in Bay County, Michigan” being that this was a second marrage for both of them they wanted to do something a different. “! I used to tell Ron that we need to get a swing underneath the trees to sit on when we are old and retired...it turned out to be a great place to start our new life together in that exact spot” Liz says.
The Bride and Groom transformed their backyard into a peaceful and special place with live music, flowers and candles. 
The Groom is an avid fisher “the top of the altar was the actual board he uses to clean fish on from many of his salmon and walleye fishing tournaments and excursions. We painted it white, bought some fancy legs and we had an instant alter that has silly and special meaning to us.” Ron even made the cross that adorned the alter.
Music played a big part the couples day, Liz was escorted down the aisle by her daughter Claire to "Here I am" by Bryan Adams “the lyrics were perfect for this occasion and is a very special song to us” Liz says. The guest also enjoyed acoustic performances while being seated.
The celebration was beautiful and took place under a big white tent, “. I collected all kinds of vintage china to use for dinner and dessert plates, and all the crystal vases and crystal candle holders were from a year's worth of thrift shopping”. 
The wedding had tons of other little details that were important to the couple “the cake was a combo wedding and groom's cake. He is an avid outdoorsman so the top two layers were outdoor themed and said "The Hunt is over, two less fish in the sea, today we said I DO under the trees". We also had yard games set up, a bonfire pit with s’mores and a 15 minute fireworks celebration at dark, a Chinese lantern sendoff where guests made wishes and released the lanterns into the night sky.”
Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Bischer!

Bridal Shows

Bridal shows are the best way for you, the busy bride to plan your wedding with ease! Shows are an exciting, fun, festive way to meet different necessary vendors. These vendors are there for you, they are there to talk with you, give you information and help you find what services fit your wedding.  Shows can also be a bit overwhelming, as a salon we see this happen a lot! Make sure to plan ahead and are ready for day, here are some tips from us.  Bring important people, groom included. Don't invite your entire bridal party, save that for other activities, this is a chance for you to really figure out what you need and want to have at your wedding.  Make a list of the products and service you need most, visit them first.  Ask for a map of the show, you can see where specific vendors are placed and it will help you navigate.  Print out your name, wedding date, and contact info on labels, this saves a lot of time for entries at vendor tables.  ...

#WeddingWednesday Taara + Malcolm 9-5-15

Wait until you see how beautiful Taara is! Their wedding was BEAUTIFUL! See what she had to say about her big day: "Our ceremony took place at Rock of  Ages Christian Ministries.   Our ceremony was short and sweet and only lasted about 20 minutes. My dad walked me down the aisle as my only brother sang to me.  I had my 2 favorite guys share this special moment with me and that meant everything to me. My husband and I exchanged vows and demonstrated us becoming one by taking part in a wine communion ceremony.  Once that was all said and done, we were introduced for the first time as Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm Hatcher. My fiancĂ© thought that I was the most beautiful bride in the world. He absolutely loved my dress. I felt like a princess in my wedding dress. I never in a million years though that I could feel that way ! Being plus size can put a lot of doubt in your mind when it comes to finding that perfect dress for on...

Amanda's advice, Attitude is EVERYTHING!!

I often get asked, what my best advice is for brides shopping for their gowns, and my answer is always the same: Keep an open mind. This is so important, and key to having a successful visit. Buying a wedding gown can be very exciting. It can also be terrifying. It can make you feel your most beautiful, and it can also bring up all sorts of body image issues. While every bride and every experience is different, the one thing I can tell you with complete confidence, is that the brides who keep an open mind have the best experiences. We recently had a bridal appointment start like this: Consultant: “Are you ready to get started?!? We’re going to have some fun today!!” Bride: “I doubt it.” Throughout the appointment, this bride refused to try on gowns that her consultant suggested, and found fault with everything, even the gowns she liked best. It probably won’t surprise you to know that this appointment didn’t end well. For whatever reason, this particular bride was not open to the possi...
