Short Wedding Dress!

Short Antoinette by Suzanne Neville

Lately I've been into when brides wear a short wedding dress. It's fun, and not at all traditional. Maybe that's why I love them so much. Also when choosing a short gown you can show off your sexy heels. I know when I got married I never even had the option to go short. Now looking back I would love to change my dress up and have a bit more fun with it.

I know when you were a little girl dreaming about your wedding you probably imagined yourself wearing a beautiful full length gown with the long train. These days short wedding dresses are "HOT". Now some brides want to show off their super model legs or break the traditional wedding traditions. As long as you don't go too short and look trashy. You don't want to to pull a Pamela Anderson. It will still look like a classic and elegant.

I love this look, especially for summer weddings. If you are intending on getting married in a church just remember you still can go short, just choose a tea length dress. Already designers from Vera Wang to Alfred Angelo are already a step ahead of today's bride.


What do you think about this new trend?

Wedding Footwear

We know about the understand the interest in footwear for weddings. During the Middle Ages a bride's father would give one of her shoes to the groom who would then tap it lightly over the bride's head to symbolize the shift in authority.
German brides tossed their shoes to attendants in lieu of the throwing a bouquet. Anglo Saxon guests pelted the departing couple with old shoes believing that this would bless the couple with children.
Today's bride many tuck a coin in her shoe to ensure that she will broke or without prosperity.
Ancient Egyptians exchanges are threw shoes when property or authority changed hands. Therefore, throwing shoes at early brides symbolize a father relinquishing his authority over his daughter to the groom.
Many early people believed that a person's soul lived in his shoe, and when a shoe was thrown at the happy couple it syphilized a wish of happiness while sending them off with the precious gift of the shoe owner's experience.
The tradition of tying old shoes to the back of the wedding car lies in the wish to drive evil spirits away from the happy couple.
The folklore surrounding shoes and weddings is colourful. It's fun to talk about. Today's bride would never think of being hit by a shoe for good luck....ouch!
