>>WELCOME TO GET MARRIED, I’M COLIN COWIE. ARE YOU A TRADITIONAL
BRIDE, A SEXY BRIDE, OR A ROMANTIC BRIDE? FINDING YOUR BRIDAL STYLE
WILL DETERMINE THE LOOK AND FEEL OF YOUR ENTIRE WEDDING. TODAY,
WE’LL SHOW YOU HOW TO MAKE SURE YOUR BRIDAL STYLE IS TOTALLY
UTTERLY YOU.
>>AND I’M DEANNA PAPPAS. SINGER ASHLEE SIMPSON IS KNOWN FOR HER
ROCKIN’ SOUND… AND WHEN SHE MARRIED FELLOW ROCKER PETE WENTZ
THEIR WEDDING WAS EDGY AND OVER-THE-TOP. TODAY, WE’LL SHOW YOU
WHAT THEY DID.
GET READY… IT’S GET MARRIED!
>> WHEN IT COMES TO PLANNING WEDDINGS, MY PHILOSOPHY IS SIMPLE – ITS
BETTER TO DO A FEW THINGS WELL, THAN TO STRETCH YOURSELF AND YOUR
RESOURCES TOO THIN WITH OVER AMBITIOUS GOALS. SO DON’T CONCERN
YOURSELF WITH CREATING AN OVER THE TOP PRODUCTION, RATHER FOCUS ON
THE PARTS THAT MEAN THE MOST TO YOU AND HAVE THE BEST IMPACT ON
YOUR GUEST. GETMARRIED.COM AND I HAVE ADVICE AND WEDDING
PLANNING TOOLS THAT WILL GUIDE YOU TO THE ELEMENTS THAT WILL MAKE
THE BEST IMPRESSION ON YOUR GUEST AND ENSURE YOUR WEDDING OOZES
YOUR SENSE OF STYLE AND PERSONALITY.
TO ME, WEDDINGS ARE LIVING, BREATHING THEATER – TELLING “YOUR” STORY.
AND TO DO IT RIGHT, YOU MUST ANSWER ONE KEY QUESTION. WHAT IS YOUR
BRIDAL STYLE?
YOUR WEDDING CELEBRATION IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU AND YOUR GROOM
TO MAKE A JOINT STAEMENT OF STYLE. GIVING YOUR GUEST A WINDOW INTO
YOUR SOUL. TELLING YOUR GUEST WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU’RE ALL
ABOUT. DEFINING YOUR BRIDAL STYLE IS KEY TO CREATING A PERSONAL
WEDDING. SO WHERE DO YOU START?
>> I THINK THAT THE BEST WAY FOR HER TO CONCEPTUALIZE HER IDEA OF HER
ENTIRE WEDDING IS TO REALLY CONSIDER HER AND HER GROOM. CONSIDER
HOW DID THEY MEET? THE THINGS THAT THEY’VE DONE TOGETHER, VACATIONS
THEY’VE TAKEN TOGETHER, PRETTY MUCH ANY ACTIVITIES THEY’VE DONE
TOGETHER OR WHAT DESCRIBES THEM BEST, AND THEN TAKE IT FROM THERE.
>>IT’S A COMBINATION OF ALL THE BRIDE AND GROOMS HISTORY, THE
CULTURES, RELIGIOUS BACKGROUND, HOBBIES, CAREERS… I THINK EVERYDAY
LIFE PLAYS AS MUCH A PART OF PEOPLES BRIDAL STYLE AS ANYTHING ELSE.
SO ONCE YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF BRIDE
AND GROOM YOU ARE GOING TO BE?
>> THERE’S YOUR ROMANTIC, THERE’S YOUR CLASSIC, THERE’S YOUR AVANTE
GARDE, THERE’S YOUR MODERN, THERE’S YOUR WHIMSICAL, YOUR
GLAMOROUS
AND HOW DO YOU DETERMINE THAT AS A COUPLE?

>> WHEN PICKING YOUR STYLE, THE FIRST RULE IS DON’T SQUASH EACH OTHER,
YOU’RE DOING THIS TOGETHER. YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHEN TO COMPROMISE,
WHO IS IT MORE IMPORTANT TO? AND THEN YOU CAN DECIDE…
>>AND DECIDING ON COLOR CAN HELP YOU TO EXPRESS YOUR SINCE OF STYLE.
AND PERSONALITY.
>>THE ORANGE BOUQUET IS REALLY A VERY CLASSIC BOUQUET, VERY CLASSIC
FLOWERS, BUT ITS WITH A TWIST IS REVEALING OF A BRIDE WHO DOES HAVE A
CLASSIC SENSIBILITY BUT LIKES TO PUSH THE ENVELOPE A LITTLE BIT.
THE GREEN AND WHITE BOUQUET IS MADE OF ALL LOCAL PRODUCTS SO ITS
VERY ENVIRONMENTALLY GREEN-MINDED BRIDE. ITS ALSO GOT A VERY FLUFFY
ROMANTIC FEEL TO IT.
THE PURPLISH ONE IS KIND OF A ROCK AND ROLL, KIND OF AN EDGIER BRIDE
BUT STILL FEMININE, THE PINK DEFINITELY BRINGS IT OVER TO A MORE
FEMININE LOOK. ITS GOT AN EXOTIC FEEL TO IT WITH ALL OF THOSE ORCHIDS,
>>NOW ONCE YOU’VE SETTLED ON THE WHAT, HOW DO YOU USE THAT TO HELP
YOU PLAN?
>> THEN YOU MEET WITH ALL OF YOUR VENDORS, WHEN YOUR MEETING WITH
THEM THE FIRST QUESTIONS THEY ARE GOING TO ASK YOU IS WHAT’S YOUR
STYLE? WHAT KIND OF VIBE DO YOU WANT TO CREATE? AND SO YOU ARE
ARMED WITH ALL THESE VOCABULARY WORDS.
>>AND HOW CAN THESE WORDS ENHANCE THE EVENT EXPERIENCE?
>> I THINK A LOT OF TIMES WHEN YOU GO TO THE WEDDING YOU MIGHT KNOW
THE BRIDE REALLY WELL, OR KNOW THE GROOM REALLY WELL, BUT NOT KNOW
MUCH ABOUT THE OTHER ONE. AND SO ITS SO NICE TO SEE THOSE TYPES OF
PERSONALITY QUIRKS AND BITS OF HISTORY AND SHARED CULTURAL
ELEMENTS REVEALED THROUGH THE WEDDING.
>> SO STAY TRUE TO YOURSELF AND YOUR PARTNER, AND YOUR JOINT STYLE
WILL SHINE THROUGH MAKING YOUR CELEBRATION THAT MUCH MORE
PERSONABLE AND MEMORABLE.

>>TRADITIONAL…. MODERN…..ROMANTIC… WHATEVER YOUR BRIDAL STYLE,
ONE PLACE IT’S GONNA SHINE THROUGH IS IN YOUR WEDDING DRESS.
BUT FOR MANY OF US GIRLS WHO ARE SELF CONSCIOUS ABOUT OUR BODIES,
THE THOUGHT OF WEARING A WEDDING GOWN CAN KICK THAT FEELING UP A
NOTCH. WHICH MAKES FINDING ONE THAT ENHANCES YOUR SHAPE ESSENTIAL.
HERE’S THE SKINNY ON CHOOSING THE RIGHT DRESS FOR ALL YOUR CURVES.

BALLGOWN, MERMAID, A-LINE… THERE ARE SO MANY CHOICES WHEN IT
COMES TO WEDDING GOWN STYLES!
BUT KNOW THIS BRIDES -NOT EVERY ONE WORKS FOR EVERY BODY.
LARGER BRIDES WANT TO MAXIMIZE THEIR CURVES AND MINIMIZE THEIR
MID-SECTION. AND LANKY BRIDES WANT TO LOOK MORE SHAPELY. THE
KEY, IS KNOWING YOUR FIGURE.
>>ITS VERY IMPORTANT FOR A BRIDE TO KNOW HER BODY TYPE TO KNOW
WHAT HER BEST FEATURE
>>FORTUNATELY, WHETHER YOU’RE A PEAR SHAPE, ROUND, HOURGLASS, OR
SOME COMBINATION, EACH BODY TYPE HAS A NUMBER OF STYLE OPTIONS.
>>IF YOU HAVE FAIRLY LARGE ROUNDED HIPS OR BOTTOM PROBABLY A
BEAUTIFUL A-LINE SHAPE OR DEFINITELY A DROP WAISTED DRESS OR EMPIRE
WAISTED DRESS THAT FLOWS OUT TO AN A, THAT SKIMS THE HIP LINE
>>CERTAIN STYLES ALSO ENHANCE THE CURVES OF SMALLER BRIDES.
>>WITH THE SMALL GIRL ITS VERY EASY TO BE OVERPOWERED, SO A SMALL
GIRL NEEDS TO HAVE VERY LITTLE AROUND HER FACE. THAT¹S WHY STRAPLESS
DRESSES WORK WELL OR OFF THE SHOULDER SMALL-CAPPED SLEEVES.”
>>SOME STYLES, LIKE A-LINE AND TEA-LENGTH, ARE CLASSICS THAT
HIGHLIGHT ANY BRIDE’S ASSETS.
>>THIS WEDDING GOWN FLATTERS ALMOST ANY KIND OF FIGURE. IT WORKS IF
YOUR BUSTY OR NOT BUSTY AT ALL. IT WORKS IF YOU HAVE HIPS. IT GIVES YOU
A REAL SHAPED WAIST WITH THE CORSET. THE WAY THIS ROUCHING IS
DESIGNED WHERE IT COMES OUT FROM THE CENTER AND FLARES OUT HERE
AND THEN COMES OUT HERE INTO THIS WONDERFUL ROUCHED SKIRT IT REALLY
FLATTERS ALMOST ANY KIND OF FIGURE.
>>SOME BRIDES WORRY ABOUT SO-CALLED “PROBLEM AREAS,” LIKE AN
AMPLE BUSTLINE. BUT THE RIGHT NECKLINE CAN MINIMIZE CLEAVAGE,
AND MAKE THOSE FEARS DISAPPEAR.
>>FOR THAT TYPE OF BRIDE I ALWAYS RECOMMEND V-NECK LINE OR WITH THE
STRAPS OR WITH CAP SLEEVES, JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THE DRESS IS VERY
COMFORTABLE ON YOU AND YOU CAN DANCE AND GO CRAZY AND HAVE THE
FUN.
>>I THINK THAT STRAPLESS IS ALSO WONDERFUL BECAUSE WHAT A STRAPLESS
DRESS DOES IS ALLOWS FOR A LOT OF SKIN TO BE SHOWN, WHICH KIND OF
MINIMIZES BELIEVE IT OR NOT”
>>AND IF YOU’RE SMALLER UP TOP? THE LOOK OF YOUR GOWN CAN GIVE
YOU A BOOST.
>> A LOT OF EMBROIDERY OR THE FLOWERS AND MAKE IT LOOK LIKE IT IS NICE
SIZE

>>NOW IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DOWNPLAY YOUR POSTERIOR…
>>FIRST THINGS FIRST PLEASE DO NOT PUT A BOW BACK THERE. NO BOWS.
PLEASE NO BOWS, BECAUSE THAT WILL ACCENT.
>> THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT YOU FEEL GORGEOUS IN YOUR
WEDDING GOWN.
>> IT’S REALLY ABOUT THE WHOLE AURA OF WHAT THE DRESS FEELS LIKE ON
HER, HOW GOOD SHE FEELS IN IT, WHAT IT MAKES HER FEEL LIKE, DOES IT
FULFILL PART OF HER FANTASY.

WE’VE GOT THE SCOOP ON THE WONDERLAND WEDDING OF SINGER ASHLEE
SIMPSON AND HER FALLOUT BOY, PETE WENTZ… FROM THE MAN WHO MADE IT
HAPPEN.
YOUR WEDDING MAY BE DONE IN A DAY, BUT YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS WILL LAST A
LIFETIME… WE’LL SHOW YOU SOME PERFECT POSES TO GO ON YOUR “MUST
HAVE” SHOT LIST.
STAY WITH US.
HOLLYWOOD STARS AND ROCK ROYALTY HAVE THEIR OWN STYLE, AND IDEAS
ABOUT HOW TO MAKE THEIR WEDDINGS UNIQUE... CELEBRITY FLORIST MARK
HELD BRINGS THOSE IDEAS TO LIFE.
ONE OF THOSE ROCKERS, ASHLEE SIMPSON HAD A HIT WITH “PIECES OF ME”, BUT
SHE GAVE ALL OF HER HEART TO FALLOUT BOY PETE WENTZ, IN A WEDDING
THAT MARK MADE FULL OF WONDERLAND WHIMSY.
>> IT WAS THEIR IDEA AND THEIR IDEA ALONE TO DO THIS FANTASY RECEPTION.
THEY ARE THE ONES THAT WANTED TO DO ALICE IN WONDERLAND. FOR THE
WEDDING RECEPTION WE USED A LOT OF MAINLY RED FLOWERS. BLACK
MAGIC ROSES AND ALL DIFFERENT KINDS OF ROSES AND RED INTUITION AND
TRIED TO CREATE A LITERAL CRAZY TEA PARTY ON THE TABLE.
THE CENTERPIECES FOR THE GUEST TABLES WERE THESE CRAZY CANDLE
OPERAS THAT WERE OFF KILTER EVERYTHING WAS A LITTLE OFF, AND JUST A
LITTLE ZANY
FOR THE HEAD TABLE WE USED A MIXTURE OF DIFFERENT KINDS OF TRAYS
SOME THAT WOU LD EVOKE A FEELING OF AN ENGLISH TEA, LIKE A SILVER
TRAY AND THEN WE PAINTED SOME TRAYS BLACK TO ADD A LITTLE MORE
SPICE TO THE MIX. WE USED A LOT OF DIFFERENT KINDS OF TEAPOTS. SOME
WERE RUSTY TEAPOTS AND WE USED CHINA TEAPOTS AND CHINA CUPS. AND WE
STACKED UP CUPS ON TOP OF CUPS AND WE FILLED THEM WITH ROSES. AND
THEN INCORPORATED THE CANDLE OPERAS DOWN THE TABLE.

I THINK THE GUEST LOVED THE WEDDING I MEAN IT AS SOMETHING SO
DIFFERENT, IT WAS A FANTASY AND IT WAS BEAUTIFULLY REALIZED IN EVERY
DETAIL. I MEAN WHO WOULDN’T WANT TO GO TO A WEDDING LIKE THAT?

>> YOU DON’T NEED A ROCK STAR TO MAKE YOUR WEDDING CEREMONY
MUSIC MEMORABLE. WHETHER IT’S TRADITIONAL OR COMPLETELY UNIQUE,
THE MUSIC STYLE YOU CHOOSE IS A TO THE ATMOSPHERE YOU’RE HOPING TO
CREATE. WE SPOKE TO SOME ENTERTAINMENT EXPERTS ABOUT THE MUSIC
OPTIONS AVAILABLE FOR YOUR WALK DOWN THE AISLE.
THE MUSIC YOU PLAY AT YOUR WEDDING PLAYS A LARGE ROLE IN
CREATING THE ATMOSPHERE YOU ENVISION, SO WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR
CEREMONY, ITS IMPORTANT TO FIND A TUNE THAT MOVES YOU
EMOTIONALLY AND SPIRITUALLY
>> OPTIONS FOR CEREMONIES RUN FROM SOMETHING THAT’S AS SIMPLE AND
ELEGANT LIKE A CLASSICAL GUITAR, AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE A CLASSICAL
GUITAR AT AN AFTERNOON GARDEN WEDDING, I THINK IT’S SO ELEGANT AND
SO SIMPLE. THEN YOU CAN DEVELOP IT A LITTLE BIT MORE, MAYBE GO WITH A
STRING QUARTET OR A CLASSICAL ENSEMBLE, SOME OF THE TIME WE HAVE A
SMALL ORCHESTRA PLAYING FOR THE CEREMONY WERE YOU’LL HAVE
VIOLENS, BRASS, GUITAR
FOR BRIDES GETTING MARRIED IN A CHURCH OR SYNAGOGUE, OR WHO JUST
DESIRE A VERY TRADITIONAL WEDDING, THERE ARE CHOICES THAT ARE
INSTANTLY RECOGNIZABLE AS WEDDING MUSIC.
>> PACHELBEL’S CANON, OR BACH’S AIR ON A G STRING.I MEAN THEY’VE BEEN
THE GO TO FOR RECOGNIZABLE CLASSICAL TUNES FOR QUITE SOMETIME. IF
THERE’S PIPE ORGANS AT YOUR CHAPEL, THEN YOU HAVE TO GO FOR WAGNER’S
BRIDAL CHORUS. IF IT’S A JEWISH CEREMONY, THEN THERE’S ONLY ONE SONG
TO PLAY WHEN THE FOOT HITS THE GLASS AND THAT IS “ SIMULTOV AN
MAZELTOV!”
>>OR, NON-TRADITIONAL BRIDES CAN DELIGHT THEIR GUESTS BY WALKING
DOWN THE AISLE TO CLASSIC TUNES, PLAYED WITH A MODERN TWIST.
>>EVERYBODY KNOWS PACHELBEL’S CANON. IT GOES LIKE THIS (PLAYS MUSIC).
WE TURN PACHELBEL INTO THIS (PLAYS MUSIC)
THESE DAYS BRIDES ARE MAKING THEIR WEDDING MUSIC PERSONAL,
WALKING DOWN THE AISLE TO A SONG THAT TRULY REFLECTS THEM.
>> WE’RE PLAYING ACOUSTIC INSTRUMENTS BUT WE’RE PLAYING THINGS THAT
PEOPLE DON’T EXPECT TO HEAR ON THEM. FROM SWEET CHILD OF MINE TO KISS
BY PRICE, WE’RE ABLE TO MAINTAIN THE DIGNITY AND CLASS OF A STRING
QUARTET

NOW IF YOU’RE WEDDING CEREMONY IS TAKING PLACE SOMEWHERE
OTHER THAN A RELIGIOUS VENUE, FEEL FREE TO USE THE ORIGINAL CD BY
THE ARTIST TO HEAR YOUR WEDDING SONG JUST AS THE ARTIST SINGS IT.
>>WE’VE HAD PEOPLE WALK DOWN TO ISN’T SHE LOVELY, BY STEVIE WONDER,
I’VE HAD PEOPLE WALK DOWN TO HERE THERE, EVERYWHERE, SOMEWHERE
OVER THE RAINBOW, AND SOME OF THE BEST ONES I’VE SEEN FOR THE
RECESSIONAL AS YOUR WALKING OUT, MY FAVORITE WAS, IT’S TOO LATE TO
TURN BACK NOW.
>> WE HAD A WEDDING JUST RECENTLY HERE IN NEW YORK WHERE WE
PROVIDED A GOSPEL CHOIR THAT BURST DOWN THE AISLE RIGHT AFTER THE
COUPLE WERE PRONOUNCED MAN AND WIFE. IT WAS COMPLETELY
UNEXPECTED, MAYBE BECAUSE IT WAS A JEWISH CEREMONY, BUT IT GOT A
PHENOMENAL RESPONSE
>>ANOTHER UNEXPECTED IDEA? CHURCH BELLS WITHOUT A CHURCH! IF
YOU DON’T HAVE A CHURCH SPIRE AT YOUR WEDDING VENUE, ALL YOU
NEED IS A SOUND SYSTEM – CD’S WITH BELL TOLLS AND OTHER SOUNDS CAN
ADD TO THE ATMOSPHERE OF YOUR DAY.
WHETHER YOU WALK DOWN THE AISLE TO A TRADITIONAL SELECTION OR
CHOOSE TO THINK COMPLETELY OUT OF THE BOX, YOUR CEREMONY MUSIC
IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE A VERY PERSONAL STATEMENT, SO SELECT A
PIECE THAT’S MEANINGFUL TO YOU.

WE’LL SHOW YOU THE TOP PICTURES YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER MUST TAKE ON
YOUR WEDDING DAY.
AND, I’LL SHARE ONE OF MY PERSONAL IDEAS TO MAKE YOUR BIG DAY
“WEDDING CHIC”.
THAT’S JUST AHEAD, ON GET MARRIED.
>>WHEN IT COMES TO PHOTOGRAPHY, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT
STYLES TO CHOOSE FROM, BUT ONLY A FEW MUST HAVES WHEN IT COMES TO
THE PICTURES YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER CAPTURES.
VO: NUMBER FIVE---GO FOR THE DETAILS
>>PICTURES OF THE DETAILS, THINGS THAT THIS BRIDE AND GROOM HAVE
SPENT ALL THIS TIME AND ENERGY INVESTING TO MAKE IT UNIQUELY THEIR
OWN, SO IT’S NOT A COOKIE CUTTER WEDDING, MAKING SURE YOU GET ALL
THOSE LITTLE DETAILS BECAUSE THEY’RE NOT GOING TO SEE IT THE DAY OF
THEIR WEDDING BECAUSE THERE’S SO MUCH GOING ON.

>>VO: NUMBER FOUR---EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED
>> A MORE UNEXPECTED SHOT WOULD BE WHERE THERE’S A GLANCE OR
THERE’S A TOUCH THAT THEY DON’T KNOW THAT YOU’RE SHOOTING IT, BUT
YOU KNOW, THEY’RE HAVING DINNER AND SHE TOUCHES HIS ARM, SOMETHING
THAT WE’RE WATCHING FOR, THAT WHEN THEY LOOK BACK AT IT, IT’S GOING
TO EVOKE, YOU KNOW, A LITTLE BIT OF A SENTIMENTAL, “I CAN’T BELIEVE,”
WHAT I WAS FEELING AT THE MOMENT
>>VO: NUMBER THREE--- NO BORING BACKGROUNDS
>> SHOT THAT MIGHT BE ON A MUST HAVE LIST WOULD BE SHOTS WHERE YOU
CAN FIND REALLY UNIQUE BACKGROUNDS. WHEN YOU HAVE A BRIDE AND
GROOM STANDING IN FRONT OF IT, IT’S JUST THAT CONTRAST, IT’S JUST THE
SAME WITH CONTRASTING COLORS THAT PEOPLE CHOOSE FOR THEIR WEDDINGS
TO MAKE THINGS POP, PICKING SPOTS FOR TAKING PICTURES, SO A COLORED
MURAL, SOMETHING THAT THEY’RE JUST GOING TO REALLY POP OFF OF WHEN
SHE’S IN WHITE AND HE’S IN BLACK.
>>VO: NUMBER TWO---DADDY’S LITTLE GIRL
>> THE MOMENT THE BRIDE HAS WITH HER FATHER BEFORE SHE GOES DOWN
EITHER THE AISLE OF A CHURCH OR GARDEN. PEAKING AROUND THE CORNER
TO SEE ALL THEIR GUESTS SITTING THERE BEFORE SHE REALIZES SHE HAS TO
WALK DOWN, OR THE WAY THEY LOOK AT EACH OTHER RIGHT BEFORE THEY’RE
ABOUT TO WALK DOWN, IS ALWAYS REALLY SWEET.
>>VO: NUMBER ONE---THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER
>> THE SEND OFF, IF THERE’S A SEND OFF AT THE END, BECAUSE AGAIN THAT’S
ANOTHER HIGHLY EMOTIONAL MOMENT WHEN THIS WHOLE DAY IS OVER, BUT
THE REST OF THEIR LIFE IS BEGINNING.
>>TO FIND GREAT PHOTOGRAPHERS AND OTHER FANTASTIC WEDDING
PROFESSIONALS WHERE YOU LIVE, BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE LOCAL
RESOURCES PAGES ON GETMARRIED.COM
>>YOUR BOUQUET IS YOUR MAIN ACCESSORY AS YOU COME DOWN THE AISLE,
AND YOU WANT IT TO BE BEAUTIFUL. BUT YOU DON’T WANT IT TO DISTRACT
GUESTS FROM THE OVERALL IMPACT OF YOUR WEDDING DAY LOOK. IN MY
BOOK “WEDDING CHIC” I’VE GOT GREAT TIPS TO HELP YOU DESIGN A FABULOUS
BOUQUET.
WHEN DESIGNING YOUR BOUQUET, START WITH THE BASICS.
FIRST OFF, DECIDE THE SHAPE. IS IT GOING TO BE ROUND, IS IT GOING TO BE
POMANDER, A NOSE GAY OR EVEN A CASCADE?
THE OTHER THING TO CONSIDER IS COLOR. DO YOU WANT SPRING, SUMMER,
WINTER, OR FALL TONES? DO YOU WANT TO MIX COLORS?

AND IF YOU ARE WEARING A ALL WHITE DRESS, DON’T CARRY AN ALL WHITE
BOUQUET. USE SOME OTHER TONES SUCH AS AN IVORY OR A CHAMPAGNE TO
ADD DIMENSION AND TEXTURE.
BESIDES FLOWERS, YOU CAN USE FRUIT AND OTHER EMBELLISHMENTS SUCH AS
BEADS, RIBBONS, OR BOWS, TO MAKE YOUR BOUQUET UNIQUE AND ELEGANT
AND DON’T FORGET -- THE BACK OF THE BOUQUET IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS
THE FRONT. MAKE SURE THAT IT’S BEAUTIFULLY FINISHED WITH RIBBON,
MOST IMPORTANTLY BRIDES -- LISTEN TO ME CAREFULLY HERE -- HOLD YOUR
BOUQUET AS LOW AS POSSIBLE AS YOU COME DOWN THE AISLE. ITS GOING TO
MAKE YOU LOOK TALLER AND THINNER, AND THAT’S GOING TO MAKE YOU
LOOK MORE CONFIDENT AND EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL. I’VE NEVER CAME
ACROSS A BRIDE THAT DIDN’T WANT TO BE TALLER OR THINNER
