Today's Bride At 35 Words O' Wisdom



(Because that o' is sorta jaunty, no?)


"I was a bride at 35, which didn’t work out, and am now 45 engaged for the second time. My advice to any bride, no matter what her age, when it comes to the dress or the overall wedding planning, is to choose a style and event that fits her personality. Don’t try to be something you’re not. A wedding dress should not feel like a costume. Like any formal or cocktail dress, a bridal gown or semi-formal should be an extension of your personal style, and made of high quality material. It’s a special day and that should be reflected, even if it’s a wedding on the beach at sunset or a country setting. The absolute best advice I can give though, is to spend more time thinking about the marriage, rather than the wedding. Younger brides often overlook this important distinction in their quest for the “perfect” wedding."
