We are bursting with excitement as we can’t wait to receive our NEW 2010 dresses.  A few months ago, we were one of the very few boutiques to preview the newest collections of Lynn Lugo, Dessy Group, Jenny Yoo, and Siri. All we have to say is CUTE CUTE CUTE!! The newest styles will be arriving at both of our showrooms soon enough. But if you can’t wait, we do have amazing trunk shows lined up so start gathering your girls, brides. Save those dates & see the latest trends for yourself!

what was your favorite memory of your big day?

how did you choose your bridesmaids’ dresses?
i’ve been a bridesmaid several times and know how it feels to be uncomfortable and so “uniformed.” that’s definitely the last thing i wanted to avoid for my girls. my bridesmaids have such different personalities and i wanted to convey it. that’s why i opted for different styles of dresses but within the same color pallette. we had a blast at Flair, trying on different styles: bubble hem, pencil hem, knee-lengths, floor-lengths, etc. and it helped that they knew what they wanted. it was just a matter of making it all come together. and it did! now, if we only didn’t get too crazy with the fake eyelashes…haha 🙂

now, who’s responsible for those adorable wedding photos?

With holidays coming up, 2009 will be over with one quick farewell. But what’s a goodbye without one big boom?!

1. Folding hair brush with mirror: After a few drinks, one’s hair tends to go all rat’s nest. Let’s avoid that and keep the candid reception pics looking just as classy as the posed ones.
2. Hairspray: Because Hurricane Belinda came out to play on your wedding day, in the form of gale force winds…enough said.
3. Clear Elastics: You’re not loving the huge cheetah print clip your maid has chosen to keep her hair up.
4. Bobby Pins: A classic must have item; it does it all from keeping your hair just so to keeping Uncle Earl’s pants in place after the busted button incident at your all you can eat buffet reception.
5. Earring backs: Who hasn’t lost one (or 20) of these in their lifetime? If not needed on the big day, these will certainly come in handy later on.
6. Emory board: You want to keep that $50 manicure looking like a million bucks all night long.
7. Clear nail polish: pantyhose…pretty self-explanatory. 
8. Mending Kit: Because your girls love to bust a move, which can often lead to a busted seam.
9. Double-sided tape: Let’s keep all under garments under the garment.
10. Stain remover: Because you can’t make red wine illegal at your reception, as much as you may want to.
11. Static remover: Aunt Cathy’s charmeuse gown just refuses to stay put.
12. Breath Freshener: Because with all of those clinking glasses you’re going to be kissing your hunny alot, and there’s no way you’re steering clear of the garlic potatoes.
13. Deodorant wipe: Deorderant tends to go AWOL after a few of your favorite dance jams.
14. Tampon: Do we really need to spell this out for you?
15. Adhesive Bandages: Your choice of shoe based on style, not comfort.
16. Pain reliever: The lack of sleep the night before is catching up to you in the form of a massive headache.
17. Facial Tissues: There will be tears which leads to runny mascara
18. Dancing Socks: Because what true dancing fool keeps their shoes on past dinner?

Every couple wants their wedding to be a reflection of themselves – favorite colors, shared interests and loves, the perfect location that truly defines them as a couple.

The winning couple’s love of each other was just as great as their love for Gundam that they named their newborn daughter, Sayla from the famous anime series.
Talk about a giant wedding!
