Encore Bridal Dress of the Week 3/23/08

I've decided to add a "dress of the week" post to share with you my personal favorites from my store, http://www.encorebridal.com/. Today, being Easter and all, I'm feeling rather sweetened up by all that candy, so I'm choosing this "oh so sweet" gown...

Rivini Pearla, size 10, ivory silk ducchess strapless gown, trumpet skirt, and gathered silk netting at the bodice. Sample gown in excellent condition. Love this gown!!

All Things Fabulous Found Here

P.S I LOVE THIS

I recently spoke with a bride-to-be and bridal beauty specialist about her blog P.S. I Love This. She said it was her "take on all things fabulous" - a way to express her excitment about her wedding plans without overwhelming her friends with all the details. I wish I'd been blogging when I was planning my wedding. I'm sure my friends were tired of all my wedding talk and I know my husband was. After about 3 months into our 18 month engagement he started setting guidelines. There are just so many fantastic ideas and products out there! P.S. I love you brings you some of the best.

Riviera Wedding Event

Brides, I'm passing along this invitation to the Riviera Country Club's bridal event Sunday, April 6th. I've been to an event of theirs in the past and it was very well done. Prepare for a day of luxery and fun. See you there!

The Art of Marriage

The Art of Marriage, by Wilfred Peterson

A good marriage must be created.
In the art of marriage the little things are the big things...

It is never being too old to hold hands.
It is remembering to say, "I love you" at least once each day.
It is never going to sleep angry.
It is having a mutual sense of values and common objectives.
It is standing together facing the world.
It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family.
It is speaking words of appreciation and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways.
It is having the capacity to forgive and forget.
It is in giving each other an atmosphere in which each can grow.
It is finding room for the things of the spirit.
It is a common search for the good and the beautiful.
It is not only marrying the right partner, it is being the right partner.
