I love this bouquet because it is not your traditional style. However, the lack of traditional does not take away from its beauty but actually adds to it. I love the intricate detail of the greenery. Also I love the flower choose. Lilly’s has always been one of my favorites—so I may be a little biased. My favorite part is how the stems are allowed to show through the bottom. This has become a huge trend in bouquets and truly captures the full beauty of the flowers.Source

What winter bride would not like to look like a snow queen? How do you achieve this look? Well, one way is to wear a flux fur cape and even a flux fur muff. It is a look that is timeless and glamorous. Plus it added to the cozy feel of a winter wedding. Besides you if you have to switch venues for the reception. It will be really cold and you don’t want tons of pictures of you leaving the ceremony in your old beat up winter coat. The capes can also be rented at some places if purchasing one is not in your budget. Also check out ebay. I see them on there from time to time as well. See the Cape Pictured!
The hairstyle above is an example of the simple elegance look. The hair is loosely swept back into a cascade of piled curls. The look is simply gorgeous. I also love how they included both the veil and the tiara but did not take away from the bride. The brides face is still the focal point in this wedding style and I absolutely love it!Source
One of the hottest trends right now is showcasing the individuality of your bridesmaids.

Many of us have problems keeping our faces perfect. I know my biggest crime is sleeping in my makeup. While I know it is the worst thing you could ever do, I still do it! However, I believe it is better to know why you’re breaking out, than be totally in the dark and helpless against breakouts. So I have compiled the most vital info to help you keep your skin as flawless as possible.
Clean!
The first and most important way to get rid of pimples is to clean your face twice a day. You want to wash your face once in the morning and once in the evening with a gentle, oil- and fragrance-free cleanser; preferably a non-detergent one labeled pH balanced. Don’t scrub – irritated skin swells around the pores, which can cause breakouts. Do not wash your face more than twice a day because it can increase your oil production and can also irritate sensitive skin. Also, never sleep in makeup because this will block your pores, thus causing break outs. If your skin is oily, use soap with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid both of these contain drying properties which will combat oily skin.
Take Care of the Problem
Apply a topical acne treatment containing benzoyl peroxide, glycolic acid, or salicylic acid over your entire face. Don’t just spot-treat acne; put the product on all acne-prone areas. That can include your entire face (avoid the lips and eyes), back, and chest.At night, use a drying spot-treatment product and dab oil-free moisturizer on dry areas. In the morning, apply an oil-free sunscreen all over your face.
Use a Concealer
To cover blemishes, apply a concealer that is the same color as your skin tone. To do this use a small brush and dab on the problem area. Use you finger to wipe off any excess concealer around the pimple. If it looks goopy or cakey gently wipe off and start over. Next, apply a light powder that matches your skin tone.
Warnings and Tips
If you have oily skin, use a clay mask as often as every three days to absorb excess oil.
To temporarily reduce redness and swelling dab on a drop of drugstore cortisone cream, Preparation H, or Vasocon-A eye drops.
Don’t pick, press, rub, scratch, or bother your pimples in any way. If you do, you risk spreading the bacteria and increasing the chances of scarring.
Only use oil-free products on your face.
Keep yourself hydrated. Drink eight or more glasses of water a day. This will help your body eliminate toxins.
Avoid touching your face, as this just spreads bacteria
When you’re picking out engagement rings, you better be ready to show off your selection. Whether you were able to design your own engagement ring or if you purchased one, everybody at your bridal party is going to want to check out the "rock" your hubby to-be purchased for you.
No matter if you pick out a preset engagement ring or go for something custom designed, what many online retailers have come to find out is that brides want their engagement ring to be truly one of a kind. Retailers are working with their brides to get drawings or photos of exactly what they are looking for so they can have their jewelers create a customized piece.
As any engaged woman will tell you, engagement rings are always the center of attention at a bridal party function or a bridal shower. While your diamond engagement ring is bound to be a hot topic at the shower, it’s also important to remember that diamonds aren’t just for the bride anymore. Many brides are presenting their attendants with gifts of diamond jewelry or diamond studded accessories to show their admiration and appreciation for those who have helped her the most during the wedding planning process.
The process of choosing engagement rings, wedding bands and bridal party gifts are some of the most important parts of planning a wedding. There are so many options available to you and you can easily incorporate this important process into your bridal party and wedding while having a lot of fun at the same time.
