Around the Weddingbells office the Academy Awards are serious business. In fact, we’ve already submitted our ballots to the WB pool. Naturally, there’s nothing more serious, or more controversial, than what Hollywood’s hottest starlets wear on the red carpet. Read the rest of this entry »

The Dress Without the Stress
Recently, I went to my first dress fitting. I’d been looking forward to it ever since I bought the dress—I’d got it on sale last fall, and had been advised to come early to be fitted before the summer rush. I knew I was going to have trouble finding anything in a Size 2, and having bought it off the rack in a Size 10, there were probably going to have to be some major alterations! So, with my maid of honour in tow, we headed over to get it sized down, in the hopes of no longer looking like I’d be attending a toga party on my wedding day. Read the rest of this entry »

Designer Style, Smart Savings

Photography courtesy Christina Gapic Photography.
At SmartBride Boutique, we’re all about helping you find designer names and fabulous style for your wedding, without paying those designer prices. This week we are sharing five Save Tips to help you get the look you want (high style!) at the price you want.
1. Loose the Extras
Sometimes you try on the dress of your dreams, only to find out the deco belt around your waist, or the beautiful shoulder sash are extra! A friend of mine, who is getting married next year, found her dream dress and was ready to purchase, and then discovered the price increased by another $1,200 because of extra trimmings. Be aware and avoid the extra costs. Read the rest of this entry »
