Wedding Dress Designs: Depending on Where You Are

Published by under Wedding

Their wedding day, for most women, is one of the most awaited moments in their lives as well as their families. This is one woman’s chance to shine on an occasion where she and her wedding dress design are the center of everyone’s attention.

With all the eyes following you from your walk to the aisle to the reception, it is vital that you have the right dress that could show off the right attitude in you especially on this day, your day.

The Wedding Gown
The wedding gown or dress is the outfit the bride wears on her wedding day. Although there are many available styles nowadays that one can choose from, other people still follow customary traditions depending on their religion and culture.

Back Then
During the medieval era and the early years following it, most people would be married for financial or political reasons. Many of the weddings during those days were unions between rich families who want to retain their wealth and nobility or political clans who want to stay in power and hold their stature in the community.

And for these reasons, the wedding dresses represent the social standing of the families involved in the union. Brides who belonged in rich clans would opt to wear gowns made of expensive clothing, elegant fabrics with rich colors and fabulous accessories. Women of this stature are allowed to wear gown in bold colors, with furs and even velvet or silk.

On the other hand, if the woman belongs to a lower social standing, an imitation of gowns from the rich clans could often be seen, in this case, the gowns would be made of cheaper fabrics and lesser accessories.

In 1929 until the 1930s, wedding gowns were traditionally based on Victorian styles.

Over Time
Many styles of gowns have evolved over time. The reasons for marriage have become more of a consensus between the persons to be wed than a forced arrangement. But still, the concept of the rich showing off their luxuries especially on their wedding day still stands. Weddings nowadays are still a proof of what social class the people involved in the union belongs to.

Other Popular Gowns
While at the present, white gowns are still favorable among many brides-to-be, there are many other styles and colors depending on where you are.

Saving Money on a Wedding Cake

Published by under Family, Wedding

One of the biggest focal points of a wedding reception
is the beautiful wedding cake. That towering,
flowering, blinding beautiful wedding cake with the
two people standing on top, that the bride and groom
cut and then feed to one another.

Although a lot of brides and grooms go with the
traditional pound cake taste, it doesn’t have to be
that way.

Flavor -

If you don’t go with the traditional pound cake taste
for all of your layers, keep in mind that not everyone
is going to like lemon or raspberry, or any other
exotic flavors.

One popular alternative is chocolate chip cake.
Another idea is to go with alternating chocolate and
vanilla.
