Men's attire

Men's attireHi everyone,This past weekend I went to a wedding expo with my mom and Maid of Honour . We checkout different vendors for decor ideas, food and drinks, jewelry, videography, clothing a for the wedding party and entered into many draws. I feel the wedding expos are a great idea for brides to attend so that you get to meet the experts in areas you need help in or can book an appointment with them for a later date. We also got to see a fashion show which was great and my mom and Maid of honour were able to advise on ideas for the wedding party. At the end, I received an email about winning a draw for me and my girlfriends to get check out jewelry and treated to wine and cupcakes. I will be posting pictures for this event with some decor and some fashion show pictures.

    Thanks Emilie, the bridemaids will be in dresses and the groomsmen will be in suits.

    Hi Emilie,

    Thanks. This was the first time I went to a wedding expo and it was really good. I agree with you on the veil and the chair ideas as well. The pink one stood out for the creativty for the chair covers. I have spoken to my future husband and he is looking at a black suit, with a white blouse, gold tie and gold vest to compliment the bridesmaids attire.

    Hey Simone Smiley heart This is amazing! I wish I had been there! Sounds like there wass loads of interesting stuff! I like the pictures you shared. I really like the veil in the picture with the dress! Smiley love I love all the details on it! The chair decorations are definitely a great idea, I love how different they look from traditional wedding chair covers. I think my favourite is the one in pink! Smiley smile

    Do you know what colour your groom would go for in the men's attire?

    Thank you Emilie, my highlights on the show were the fashion show and the decorations for the reception. I also like the jewerly that I saw and wished that I taken photos of as they goregous! Smiley smile Tips that I have learned that you can having different options for chair covers, instead of the bows, like using a broche, having a mesh cover, using picture frame as a possible option for wedding favors. I saw an old fashion keys as a wedding favors. I also like the idea of having signature drinks for cocktails for the guest to enjoy during the cocktail hour. There were some dress inspriation but not much based on the fashion show. There is a company called Hush that will design bridemaids dresses and you can pick out the design and color for your team. My favourite part of the expo was getting to talk to different experts in terms of decor, wedding cakes, dresses, suits for the grooms' party, and wedding favors. I learned that if you are ordering a wedding cake ot only order 75% of total number of guests that you will have to avoid waste. Smiley smile

    I hope all this does help, as I am still learning more as I continue to plan the wedding.
