EEK! AKK!

EEK! AAK! Yes, it’s springtime, which is cleaning time, so what is that hideous dress lurking in the back of your closet? Is it the world’s tackiest bridesmaids’ dress?

Is it fluorescent taffeta ? A terrible color, all ruffles, dated, poofy sleeves or another terribly funny attribute we missed? Put that dress on and send us a picture. We invite you to join us in “The Tackiest Bridesmaids’ Dress” Contest. (Feel free to smudge out your face to protect the innocent.) We will be announcing the winner on April 1, appropriately April’s Fools Day! Stay tuned for contestant updates, pictures and prizes.

Send in a picture of the dress, the date you had to wear it, any other details that would make it even funnier, and your contact information. Also, please let us know if we have permission to post the picture if you are chosen as a finalist. Feel free to also send in prom, wedding or other formal dress pictures. Please send information in to info@envogueevents.com or call for more details 713.861.0101.

If it is time to donate the dress, contact your local Fairy Godmother Project – Tailors can make anything beautiful again :)

Adding your own distinctive touches to your wedding

A wedding is one of the most important times in a person’s life. There are many little touches that can make a wedding unique in its style. From the colors you choose, to the arrangements of flowers, or even the matchless venue you have chosen for that special day. There are so many options available to make your wedding truly one of a kind. Some interesting new trends are arising, one being The Candy Bar! This is a fun new distinctive way of personalizing your taste. You can take everyone’s love of candy and match it to your own style. For example your wedding colors are pink, and brown. You can tie in candies to accent your colors. Say you also want some dimension in your wedding; you can tie in different levels and styles of vases to put your candies in! Another way to personalize your wedding is to get lighted or a sticker monogram for your dance floor. Usually your dj or florist can produce this. It just adds that little extra something, and wows your guest. As we all know ladies shoes are always one of our biggest accessories! Having a fun colored shoe under your wedding dress is neat for pictures and gives it a little pop. Different shades of white dresses can be boring or drab, but add in a Tiffany blue shoe, or a magenta pink shoe and it gives for a more fun glamorous look. As you also know Photography is a huge part of our wedding, because it captures the moments, memories, and evokes the emotions of the event. So instead of traditional staged photos have your photographer capture the candid photos. Those are the most real ones, whether it is your hugging your grandma with a tear in your eye. To old friends catching up, and laughing in the moment. Candid photos can really bring those feelings to life! Weddings beyond doubt are an amazing event, so why not make them more special by adding your own individuality!
