#WeddingWednesday on a Tuesday

With Wednesday being Christmas Eve we decided to treat you with an early #WeddingWednesday post!

Congratulations to our bride Katherine and her husband who were wed on October 18th, 2014 in Ann Arbor at The Valley. Kathrine wrote us a beautifully detailed email with her wedding story and we are so excited to share her memories of their special day.
"From the beginning of my wedding planning I hadn't given my thought to a dress or what I wanted. My mother heard really amazing things about bombshell bridal so I figured I would give them a shot. Really what did I have to lose? I went in not having any idea what I wanted. Everyone who worked at the shop did an amazing job at making me feel comfortable, important and beautiful. They had a huge selection with a very wide range of prices. I was a bride on a budget and they picked a few in my price range. I was so torn between two different dresses and I picked a dress that was a bit cheaper but had more of a classic look to it. I was sold."
October 18th 2014 was a little over cast and cold which was a bit of a bummer because we had talked about being married outside but the weather had another idea. The Valley is a beautiful venue inside and out so we decided that inside was just as good. After I was primped to walk down the isle I was ready for my first look with my soon to be husband. As I walked over to him I couldn't believe this was all really happening. My eyes watered with all the emotions and exhaustion that has led up to this point. He was the most handsome I had ever seen him because lets face it ladies, there is NOTHING more sexy then a man in a well fitting suit. We hugged for a moment and then started laughing. The emotions had passed and we were just in love and ready for the remainder of the day. 
I walked as gracefully as I could down the isle. I made it nearly all the way down before tripping and almost falling on my pretty primped butt. My beloved then came down and rescued me. A lot of people must have wondered why I didn't have my dad walk me down. Truth is, is that I didn't need anyone to give me away, after 10 years of dating I was his and he was mine. The ceremony was short and sweet, we said our I do's and walked back down the isle to start our happily ever after and celebrate with everyone we loved and cherished."
What a sweet, emotional and wonderful day it seemed, congratulations to the newly weds!

Emily's #WeddingWednesday

Emily came to Bombshell on a recommendation from a friend "I was having a horrible time finding a dress in my size. I called the shop and asked about my size, when she said "We have that size", I almost cried" she said. The bride and new mom came to the shop she had little less than a month until her wedding. Emily was so worried about finding a gown for her special day. " We picked out 4 dresses an started trying them on, I wasn't feeling like any of them was "The one".

REAL TALK. How to be A Good Bridesmaid

We all know that being a bridesmaid is a blessing AND a curse. Buying a dress that 1. you don’t like and 2. UGH that price tag though! We all know that sometimes being asked to be in a wedding is extremely frustrating. However, when your best friend asks you to be in her wedding it’s hard to not feel honored! She loves you and wants you by her side for the most important day of her life. Please be seated class! Remember that she might be stressed out, and don’t take it personal. She may be stressed because everyone is in her ear telling her what she should do. Ask her if she needs help and most likely she will need it, but might not want to ask. You may not care about all the details, but she does! A good friend will shut up about her wanting paper flowers instead of real ones and help her make “said” paper flowers. She will change her mind at least a dozen times. I am SOOO guilty of this. In this day and age with pinterest, instagram, wedding blogs, and facebook i...
