For the Grooms- Suits and Tuxedos

     Hey Grooms, its your turn to shine as we will be talking about suits and tuxedos. Well, you may be wondering we mean..... Hmmmm
     Suits do not incorporate any satin in their lapels and suits usually have plastic buttons or buttons faced with the same fabric as the coat.
     While Tuxedos have satin facing on their lapels, buttons, pocket trim and sometimes a satin side on the trouser. Do you see the above picture,the difference between the tuxedo with a satin lapel and a suit without a satin lapel?
      As for accessories,Tuxedos are worn with bow ties.

Now regarding which is best to wear for a wedding, that has less to do with the physical appearance more than messages. A suit with a long tie may make you look daper and cool but remember you can also wear this to the office.S o it makes no difference as someother men may even wear just exactly what you are wearing to your wedding. *eyes rolling*

So for your wedding, wear something that sets you apart from others.That's were the 'TUXEDO' come in. A Tuxedo and a bow tie says more than just a suit and tie.

Please grooms, try to look dapper and different. Get a tuxedo today and accessorize with a bow tie for your wedding day and i assure you,you wont regret it when your wedding photo album arrives *winks*
Cheers...

Body Shapes And Wedding Dresses

its best ladies know about their body shapes or types so that they can choose the right silhouette of any wedding dress we love.we have four major body types they are:

1. The Hourglass Shaped Bride:  This shape is popularly called the 'figure8' shape.The hourglass is one were your hips and shoulders are similar in shape with your well defined waist. wedding dress silhouettes such as;

A ball gown

An example of a sheath gown
The sheath gown will show off your figure in a streamlined manner from shoulder to toe
The mermaid gown gives you a curvy fit and flare and plays with figure in all the right places.
The ball gown for a hourglass lady, has a structured bodice that gives ur tummy a flatter look.

2. The Pear Shaped Bride: This is a shape where the hip measurement is greater than the burst.Women with this shape relatively have larger rear,thicker thighs and smaller boobs. wedding dress silhouettes perfect for the pear shaped bride include;

A-line wedding dress with an empire waist line
 A-line wedding dresses are the most flattering for brides with pear shape figure as it skims over the large hips and bums.


The Apple Shaped Bride: The apple shaped brides have broader shoulders compared to their narrower hips. Apple shaped bides tend to have slim legs and thighs while their abdomen and chest look larger.
   Wedding gown silhouettes such as Aline empire waistline and ball gowns would look perfect for this bride.


 Necklines such as strapless and sweetheart, also go well for this type of bride.


The Banana Shaped Bride: This is the thinner bride with a small waist line.She is considered as straight with no curves....But not to worry there are gowns for you.  see some pics after the cut
