Sleeves.......!!!!

Are sleeves a style consideration or a necessity? We at WSG believe it is both.....The perfect sleeve can enhance a wedding gown. A long, narrow sleeve is flattering and fashion-forward while an elbow-length sleeve is stylish but also provides coverage. If you are confident about your arms, then sleeveless (strapless) will work for you. The sleeveless gown is a signature for me as it is timeless, chic and sophisticated while also practical for dancing.
If you choose sleeves, remember the proportion of the armhole will impact the construction of the sleeve and the range of your movement. Most importantly, choose something you feel comfortable and confident in. -XO

The Bridal Garter





Bridal Garters have always been a lot of fun. Even the story of their origin shows that garters are a symbol of fun at any wedding.
We would love to receive photos of your garter or "garter removal" with or without the story that may go with it.
Submit your photos or story and you will go in the draw to win a dozen SA wines.
To all our brides to be keep an eye on the website for the release of our December LOOK BOOK which will be released on 12th December 2011 as Bleu Garters in California has given us an unique garter to giveaway to one lucky bride.
Bleu Garters are handcrafted in California from fine silks and antique laces. The brand modernizes the classic garter by incorporating pops of color, oversized playful embellishments and intricate beaded lace. “A big trend I'm noticing is brides being more adventurous with color, and not sticking to white/ivory/light blue. Don't get me wrong, the classics are still the most popular, but brides have also been ordering their favorite bright colors, as well as the black floral lace garters for their wedding day!”-Jamie, creative director and designer for Bleu Garters
History of the Garter
Today, the tradition of the wedding garter is tame in comparison to France of the 14th century. In North America, the bride wears two garters; one as a keepsake garter and the other for the throw away.
Both garters are worn on the right leg just above the knee.
Before the removal of the garter, the bride first throws her bouquet to the single women.
The groom removes the throw away garter from the brides leg, sometimes he removes it with his teeth , but more appropriately nowadays he uses his hands. He does this while the bride is sat in a chair.
After the garter is removed, he then throws it to the single male guests. The male guest then takes the garter and places it on the leg of the single female guest who has caught the bouquet.
Those that catch either item are said to be the next to marry. In some instances, it is said that they will marry each other.
The keepsake garter is removed later in private during the honeymoon night.
Numerous wedding garter traditions have been obtained over the years that still seem to become rules of etiquette today. Take a look at a few that are still popular and some that have long since been forgotten.

The Forgotten Items





























Often brides and grooms forget to add to their Wedding Registry important items they'll need to entertain in style.


Don't forget to round our your registry and elevate your tablescape with these key pieces:



Rim Soup Plates (see the Doulton Gordon Ramsay Platinum Rim Soup Plate above)
These bowls are an add-on to the 5-piece place setting - they'll make your first course, a warm soup or salad, a standout!



Globlets, wine glasses and champagne flutes (see the Doulton Manhatten Goblet above)
These are everyone's party favourites! In addition you can use these to serve water and iced tea with elegance, they can also hold eggnog or make a yoghurt parfait sparkle!

Make sure to add serving pieces (like the Doulton Gordon Ramsay Platter above) to your registry. Large platters and a gravy boat will become more important as your cricle of family and friends expands. A platter can hold a turkey or crown roast for a crowd, and that gravy boat can hold an array of sauces and dressings.


Round out your registry - and let the good times multiply!

Back of Wedding Dress Tip



Just a little information when chosing your wedding dress!!!!! The back of a wedding dress gets its fair share of attention and therefore should be conceived with this importance in mind. The charm of an artfully designed back lies in the intersection of cut, drape and detail. You should connect the back of the dress to the time of day of the wedding. For morning ceremonies, the back should neve...r fall below the level of the bra fastening and should be adorned with traditional detals such as tiny bows or ribbons. For late-day and especially evening weddings, a softer, lower drape and more bare skin is alluring and adornment can include sequins, beads and crystals to reflect light and add glamour. Remember, a bride's exit is as noteworthy as her entrance so choose the back detail of your wedding dress accordingly.............!!!!!
