Rant or Rave: Disney Wedding Dresses, Rings & More

Friday, October 30th, 2009

We love the Disney princesses as much as the next girl, but the whole idea of dressing up as one begs the question—how far is too far?

A few years ago, clothing designer Kirstie Kelly created a Disney-themed line of wedding dresses modeled after a few of your favorite Disney princesses. Then just last week she launched a line of Disney princess wedding rings to match!

Do you think this is Disney wedding overkill? Would you ever opt for a Disney-themed wedding? Is this idea cute and sweet or a bit too much? Do Disney weddings make you want to rant or rave?

Faux wedding mustaches are everywhere right now, but it’s not a trend that has me feeling super excited. It’s not pretty! It’s not sweet! But is it fun and quirky? What do you think? Do fake wedding mustaches make you want to rant or rave?

Rant or Rave: Silk Wedding Flowers

Friday, October 9th, 2009

It’s almost impossible to host a wedding without feeling a strain on your budget, and it’s particularly hard to order fresh wedding flowers without feeling the pinch. For example, a lovely bouquet of roses, orchids and gardenias runs upwards of $120!

As a result, some brides choose to order silk flowers instead of changing their flower choice or downgrading the size of their bouquet. Not only will they often save money with this option, they can also keep the bouquet long after the ceremony is over. Many silk or velvet bouquets even look quite realistic.

But, then again, they aren’t fresh flowers and they certainly aren’t traditional. What do you think? Do silk wedding flowers make you want to rant or rave?
