Don’t settle for wearing fake jewelry…borrow the real thing!

January 29, 2009 by grandevents ·  

adorn-jewelry-samples-300x300 Dont settle for wearing fake jewelry...borrow the real thing!From your engagement to your wedding day—let it all begin with diamonds. Adorn Brides rents exquisite diamond jewelry to compliment any style. Brides are now able to use this exclusive service that Hollywood red carpet goers have enjoyed for years. Prices range from $90–$1,500 and up depending on the retail value of the pieces you select.

You can relax—the process is so easy! In fact, renting jewelry from Adorn Brides will be one of the least stressful parts of planning your wedding. Unlike figuring out how to keep your new mother-in-law from crossing paths with your high school ex at the reception, the process is complete in four easy steps and requires no diversion tactics.

  1. Go shopping at Adorn Brides and pick out the pieces you love.
  2. Check out using a credit card and reserve the jewelry for your event date.
  3. Look amazing wearing the jewelry on your wedding day. (Your photos will last a lifetime…and yes, you can tell when you wear the real thing!)
  4. Send it back on the first business day after your event using packaging Adorn provides for you.

Be sure to make your reservation as soon as possible because pieces can book up (reserve at least 3 weeks ahead of time…the more the better.)

Questions? Adorn has great personalized customer service and will answer any questions you have via email or phone in a very timely manner.

Remember, your jewelry will be the very last thing you put on before you walk down the aisle to meet your future husband—soak in the memory and make it special with real diamond jewelry.

One more reason to check out Adorn Brides… we have negotiated a special 20% discount for our readers. Use the code TXBC2005 at checkout.

The Little White Dress

January 28, 2009 by grandevents ·  

Amsale Little White DressTony BowlsOne of the trends in wedding gowns that received a lot of attention at The Wedding Party runway show this past weekend was  The Little White Dress.  

Many brides are choosing to purchase a second dress to wear either at the reception or possibly at the her engagement party or after party.  The styling of these dresses are typically much more flirty than the gown she chooses for her ceremony.  Usually above the knee in length, changing into this dress just before dancing begins is a great way to let your guests know its time to party!

Amsale has coined the term The Little White Dress and created an entire collection of styles to choose from.  Many other designers, such as Tony Bowles and Alvina Valenta have styles in their bridesmaids or social lines which can be purchased in white or ivory.
