Plus Size Dresses to Wear to a Wedding

Yeah, sucks to spot a sexy dress at your favorite clothing showroom, and see every damn inch refusing to fit you! Your best friend's wedding is scheduled for the next month, and from what you know of yourself, it's point blank impossible to lose those extra pounds in a month's time, and fit into that dress you wanted to buy. If you're a fuller-figure, don't frown. The plus-size fashion market is heating with a wide range of trendy and chic dresses to wear to a wedding that look stunning, and are capable of kicking the heat up a notch. Let's help you out grab a beautiful dress to wear on the big day, and make sure you steal more attention than the bride herself. Evil, much? Bah, anything to look good.

Stop guessing and pick up the invitation card to find out the theme of the wedding! Weddings can be formal, semi-formal, or totally casual. Even after you've found it out, choosing among uncountable outfits consumes adequate time and effort, for there are countless styles, patterns, and sizes to pick up from. Moreover, the time the wedding is scheduled at may always vary. To sum up, if the wedding is to be held in the daytime, a semi-formal attire contributes to the general code. On the other hand, if a wedding is scheduled for the night, formal dresses such as long cocktail gowns do the trick. Even the type of invitation card gives you much clue about the demand of attires and dresses to wear to a wedding.

If the wedding is scheduled for the day time, dresses with floral prints, polka dots, and vertical-lines easily do the trick, as one doesn't look too overdone. Vertical prints create an illusion of a slimmer you, thereby, making you feel comfortable and confident. You can team your dress up with beautiful pearl jewelry, and stilettos.

Women who're towards the plumper end often feel embarrassed about their heavy arms, which keeps them from experimenting many beautiful dresses. Here's a trick - wear an exclusive shrug complimenting your dress. Shrugs cover your arms smartly, elongate their look, and add to your confidence, since now, you don't have to feel embarrassed about your flab. Wearing a well-designed shrug will also hide your love handles, and add to the beauty of your dress. However, make sure you pick a piece that looks exclusive, and compliments your dress, as even the slightest mis-match can result in a disaster.

Bridal Bouquet Ideas

Simply Sunflower
Well if you want to keep it simple and just highlight the summer mood, then have a bunch of fresh sunflowers tied up with a lovely brown or green satin ribbon to make a lovely bouquet. You can also have a mix of large and small sunflowers, with leaves gracing them from all sides and tied up with green or white ribbon. Another idea is to pick bright and dark shades of sunflowers to have a classy looking shaded bouquet. You can further play it up by adding fresh green, long foliage from sides and in-between. Let me tell you that the yellow and green combo looks extremely beautiful especially if the bride is wearing a classy white gown.

Mix it Up
Mixing other flowers with fresh sunflowers can make really beautiful bouquets. With sunflower wedding flowers you can add fresh red roses to have an attractive red and yellow bouquet. White and yellow roses make the best pairs if you want a sunflower bouquet that looks calm and soothing. Another idea is to mix fresh yellow or white daffodils to the large sunflowers and make a bouquet by gracing these with wide satin ribbon. Don't forget to add the long daffodil leaves to this bunch. Calla lilies can make another beautiful pair for sunflowers when you make bouquets. Pick Calla lilies to complement the bridal attire and add them to the flashy sunflowers to make a perfect bouquet.

Creative Arrangements
Well, there are a number of options in flowers and leaves that can be added to the sunflower bouquet to make it a perfect piece. A simple arrangement which includes tying the bunch of flowers in a ribbon so that all of them stay on same is definitely a good idea. But you can further jazz up the same round bouquet by playing up with the arrangement of flowers. A tapering bouquet which has more flowers on top and the bouquet gently tapers down to a cascade at the bottom looks extremely amazing. This is also called a waterfall or cascading bouquet which is a fave of many ladies. These can be beautified by adding metallic and colorful sticks and ribbons in between.

Though sunflowers do not offer you a large number of arrangement options, you can pair a range of flowers and leaves with these. Moreover, you can pick the large sunflowers which quickly make the bouquet look larger and you need to add just a few elements to give it a finishing touch. Look for tiny colorful flowers that can add a hint of color to the yellow bouquet. Making the right color combinations when you add other flowers is an important part. You can use the aforementioned and many other ideas by having a look at the bridal bouquet images and make a attractive looking bouquet for the charming bride!

Morning Wedding Etiquette

Although not much heard of, morning weddings do happen, and as a matter of fact, in my personal opinion, are a pleasant breath of fresh air (literally and figuratively) from the usual afternoon and evening weddings. Morning weddings are convenient for the guests, since they get to carry on with their daily activities after they attend the wedding, and even the couple gets to spend the remainder of the day together as newlyweds, as opposed to a rush to the hotel room to simply sleep, which is a common phenomenon at evening weddings. Plus, a morning wedding is simply more creative, innovative and brighter and fresher than after half the day has gone by. Attending and hosting a morning wedding does come with a few dos and don'ts. Here's the lowdown on some useful morning wedding etiquette that might come in handy in case you're planning to opt for this relatively inexpensive wedding idea.

Quite obviously, the first thing that comes to everyone's mind when we think of a wedding, let alone a morning wedding, is what to wear. Not to worry! The following have been given the mark of approval and have been systematically arranged in descending order of the fuss that's made over them.

A bride is definitely the most beautiful woman in the ceremony. At a morning wedding, she has a couple of options that she can explore. A formal ceremony calls for a floor length gown (not satin) with a long fingertip veil or elbow brush. Sleeves or no sleeves can be decided by taking into account the weather condition and also the choice of the bride. For a semi-formal affair, a bride can be dressed in a skirt suit and even a pant suit if she wants.

Next comes the groom. Well, since it's a morning wedding (read not very formal), a groom can be spared the torture of baking himself in a full-fledged tuxedo (though he may be required to wear it, if the ceremony is a formal one). Else, he can wear a normal dark-colored business suit or even pinstripe trousers with a regular sportcoat. The fabric should be one that breathes well, and a necktie is an absolute must.
