Tips To Encourage Great Toasts At Your Wedding

Most of the wedding planning decisions are made by the bride and groom, but one area that is partially out of your control is the toasts. You can decide who speaks, and for how long, but what your best man and maid of honor say are going to be a surprise to the both of you. Today, Brides of America has a few tips for you to share with the people that will be speaking at your wedding, plus a few great video examples that might give them some creative inspiration. 

The key to a great wedding toast is sincerity, but if if can also entertain the guests along with the wedding couple, then that toast will be a happy and memorable part of the reception for everyone. Here are a few tips to share with your toast makers. 

• Make it personal...
  but not too personal! Including details about how the couple met, how the toast maker met the couple, and funny stories about special moments leading up to the wedding are great subject matter. Do not include anything that is inappropriate for the guests in attendance, and don't mention past relationships or bash marriage in any way. Keep things positive.  
• Plan it into the timeline.
  You can request that toasts are limited to a certain amount of time to keep the momentum of the reception flowing. Plan for them to take place when everyone has a drink in hand and before any guests have had too much to drink already. If your best man or maid of honor is planning something big (like in the videos below) they can tell you how long it will take without having to clue you in on any surprises.  
• Practice makes perfect.
  Strongly suggest that your toast makers plan what they will be saying ahead of time rather than winging it, and that they practice their toast a few times in front of a mirror or in front of someone else.  
• Make sure everyone can hear it.
  Get the guests' attention before beginning the toasts, and have the DJ give the toast maker a microphone so that everyone can hear. The person giving the toast should speak clearly and not rush through it.  

Your best man and maid of honor simply need to speak from the heart. Some simple words about how special you are to them and a few good wishes for a happy future together are all that is needed for a great wedding toast. If you happen to have creative, talented friends that love to entertain a crowd, you may end up with something like this: 

Some people aren't comfortable speaking in front of a crowd. Here is a perfect example of a toast that earns a standing ovation, but the man giving it doesn't have to say a word! 

Another place to find toast inspiration is from popular TV shows, Late Night skits, current songs, or other pop culture references. 

They can always enlist help, too. In addition to creating a personalized song for the wedding couple, this best man brings in a few friends to join him at about 3 minutes and 40 seconds into the video. 

A great wedding toast can be a highlight to any reception and a wonderful memory to take home after the wedding. Great ceremony memories begin when you enter the wedding in your beautiful bridal gown. Choosing a dream dress is a wedding planning decision that you have total control over. Visit us at Brides of America in Miami, or order your wedding dress online through our website if you aren't in the South Florida area. We'll make sure your wedding day fashion is as special as you are! 

The gown of your dreams awaits you.

6 Tasks To Take Care Of As Soon As You Get Engaged

He asked and you said yes... but now what? There is a lot of wedding planning to get underway, but that can wait a little while. First things first, the following list of things from Brides Of America should be taken care of before you worry about all of that other stuff. 

Immediately after the engagement...

#1 - Celebrate Together 
This is an exciting moment, but there's no need to share it with the world right away. (Unless, of course, it's a public proposal. Then the cat's already out of the bag!) Take as much time as you want, an hour, a day, or even more, to simply enjoy the fact that you love each other and are ready to share the rest of your lives together. Do a little daydreaming about the big day, as well as the "happily ever after." Everyone else will find out soon enough, but right now is all for the two of you! 

#2 - Get Those Nails Done!
It's time to schedule a manicure so that you can start telling everyone about the engagement. Why, you may ask? Because the first thing everyone is going to want to do, after squeals of delight and loving hugs, is to see that ring! 

#3 - Share The Great News
When you are ready to share the news with the world, start with those that are nearest and dearest to you. Your family and best friends may be hurt if they find out from someone else. Make sure the are in the loop, then feel free to blast it all over social media and shout if from the rooftops. 



Soon after the engagement...

#4 - Start A Wedding Binder
With wedding on the brain, you are going to start seeing great ideas everywhere that you like. Designate a special binder or start an online notebook to keep track of all of these wonderful ideas. When you're ready to make decisions, you'll be glad that you have everything together in one place. 

#5 - Schedule Engagement Photos
There's really no big rush to get these done, unless it's going to be a short engagement. Still, the earlier you have the photos taken and back from the photographer, the sooner you'll have them to use for save-the-dates and your wedding website. Plus, it's always fun to have a professional capture your love and excitement about the upcoming wedding on film. 

#6 - Draft A Guest List
Not always the most fun task, but the size of the guest list will determine the size of venue you will need, plus it will have an affect your budget. It will most likely go through a few drafts before you get a final list together, so start early. 

Those tasks will get you started. Once the excitement has died down a little bit (because it's not going away completely any time soon!) you can begin focusing on a wedding planning checklist. Keep an eye out for your favorite bridal gown styles, and then give us a call to make an appointment at our wedding dress store in Miami to begin trying a few on. Brides of America's goal is to offer the best wedding dresses in Miami as well as online, along with the other fashions and accessories to go along with every bride's special day. 

P.S. Today marks our 100th blog in our series! Thanks to all who've inspired us to continue sharing our expertise with you!

Helpful Tips For Attending Bridal Shows

There are a lot of details to take care of when you plan a wedding, and attending bridal shows is an excellent way to get lots of tasks tackled at once, plus find creative inspiration for your special day. Brides of America realizes that some of the larger bridal shows can be overwhelming, but we've put together some advice to help you get the most out of one. 

*Sign Yourself Up

Pre-register
First of all, if the bridal show allows pre-registration, take advantage of it. It will save you precious time when you arrive, letting you skip the sign-up line and get to the show floor much faster. Another bonus of pre-registering is that some shows offer special perks for early sign-up, plus you will be on their mailing list for updated show information and specials. 

Wedding Freebies
Once inside the doors, most of the wedding vendor booths will have giveaways for you to sign up for. With everything that you will be spending to put on a wedding, free swag is always welcome. To save yourself a lot of time, and to keep your hand from cramping up from writing your contact information over and over, make labels to bring along with you to the show. Pre-print your name, the groom's name, your wedding date, email address, phone number, and address; then when it's time to sign up, simply peel and stick. Quick & simple!   

Be aware, though, that these vendors are using the drawings to get your contact information so that they can try to sell you their services. If you don't want to be contacted, either don't sign up or you can create a temporary email address to use specifically for your wedding. That way, all of your wedding correspondence will be kept together in one space, away from your regular emails, and you can discontinue that email address once the wedding is over. 

*Make A Plan For The Day

Choose Helpers
A bridal show is the perfect place for you and your fiance to get some great ideas for your wedding decor and also check out many different vendors all in one stop. It can also be a fun day to get all of the girls from your wedding party together. They can help you get some wedding tasks accomplished, and you all get to have a girls' day out in the process. Decide who will help you get the most out of the bridal show and ask them to join you. 

Map Your Route
Next, take a look at the list of vendors that will be there and plan who you need to visit the most. Start with vendors that you still need to hire, and if there is time left over, you can browse the other booths to see if you can find some new ideas or great deals you simply can't pass up. 

There are often special events planned for specific times, like a fashion show or first dance demonstration. If there is something that you really want to see, plan the timing so that you are in the right place at the right time. Seating can fill up fast, so if you don't want to stand through it, get to the stage early. 

*Don't Forget To Bring...
We've already mentioned that bringing along labels to use for giveaway sign-ups can make that part of your day a lot easier. Here are a few more items that you should bring with you too. 

• Comfortable Shoes!
  If you've chosen to use the show for a fun ladies' day out, you may have the urge to get all dressed up. That's fine, as long as you stay sensible when it comes to your shoes. There will be lots and lots of walking involved, and possibly big crowds to maneuver through. You may regret wearing high heels halfway through the day. There are plenty of fashionable options for your feet that will keep you comfy too.
• Calendar
  There will be a lot of other brides wanting to visit the same booths that you do. Once you find a vendor that you like, get out that calendar and book an appointment to speak to them in more detail.
• Checkbook / Credit Card
  Many vendors will be offering "bridal show only" discounts if you book them during the show. You will want to have your credit card handy so that you can put down your deposit and get your wedding date on their calendar. Bring your checkbook too. Some smaller businesses may not have the ability to accept credit cards.
• CashIt's probably going to be a long day, and you'll most likely be doing a lot of walking. At some point you may want something to eat or drink beyond the sweet cake samples. A little bit of spending cash will come in handy because that is all that some pop-up bars and small food stands can accept.
• A Bag For Goodies
  You'll be gathering a lot of business cards and informational pamphlets at each booth that you visit, as well as promotional goodies that they'll be giving away. You may be handed a bag to use when you arrive at the bridal show, but having an extra one isn't a bad idea. You can use one bag for your VIP information, and the other to hold stuff that is second-string. Don't throw away any vendor information until you have contracts signed, though. That way, if your first choice doesn't work out, you can still get in touch with other vendors that you liked.    

**Have Fun With It!

There are wedding planning tasks that can be stressful, but attending a bridal show doesn't have to be one of them. Remember to enjoy the moment. After all, brides-to-be are queens for the day at a bridal show. Every vendor there will be catering to you, hoping to get your attention and your business. Enjoy the attention, as well as the useful information that you can find at a bridal show. 

Another wedding task that doesn't have to be stressful is finding your dream bridal gown. When you shop at our wedding dress store in Miami, you will have our undivided attention, plus the experience of our knowledgeable consultants to make your shopping appointment easy and fun. You can just relax, tell us what you have in mind, and let Brides of America guide you to that perfect dress. 

The gown of your dreams awaits you.

Which is Better - Daytime or Evening Weddings?

While the majority of weddings seem to take place on Saturday evenings, there is no set rule saying that they have to. You can get married at any time of day, on any day of the week. The key is to figure out what day and time are most convenient for you and your guests. Brides of America has gathered a few reasons why both daytime and evening weddings can be wonderful. These may help you decide which is best for your special day.  

Daytime Weddings
Some couples prefer to say their "I do's" during the day for a variety of reasons. David Abadi, owner of Brides of America, chose to get married earlier in the day himself. "My wife and I are getting ready to celebrate our 22nd wedding anniversary this August. When we got married, the celebration was over by 6 pm. This was great because we had the entire night to relax." 

Here are a few more reasons why you might want to have your wedding during the day:

• Lighter Meals
  Catering is one of the more costly items for a wedding. When you host a reception during the day, you can get away with serving a lighter meal than you would at dinner time. Brunch, lunch, or even an afternoon wedding with only a cocktail hour will most likely be less expensive than a full buffet dinner. 
• Natural Lighting
  Daylight is a photographer's friend, so the natural lighting of a daytime wedding will be wonderful for your pictures. Also, if your ceremony and/or reception will be outdoors, you won't have to worry about lighting up the dark so that your guests can see. 
• Early Ending
  When your wedding starts early in the day, that means you will be done by late afternoon or early evening. Even though weddings at night start later, people usually begin preparing early in the morning, so by midnight, the bride and groom are wiped out both mentally and physically. Ending early means that you can spend the rest of the night alone with your new spouse relaxing, and if you will be leaving for your honeymoon the next day, you won't be tired from a late night of entertaining guests. 
• Guest Friendly  
  You will see this "pro" listed again under evening weddings below too, but that's because, depending on your particular wedding guests, there are good things about both. For daytime weddings, your guests are more likely to stay until the end of the reception. These are also more kid-friendly if you have a guest list with small children that tire easily and early. 

Evening Weddings
Most of the weddings that you are invited to are probably held in the late afternoon-early evening along with a dinner, followed by dancing. Emma, one of Brides of America's blushing brides, had an evening wedding. "We got married in the winter, so it was getting dark early anyway. The candles and twinkle lights made it all seem even more romantic."   

There are plenty of reasons why this is a great time to host your event. A few of them are:   

• More Time To Get Ready
  The later your ceremony starts, the more time you will have to prepare everything, including yourself. Everyone can get ready without feeling rushed, and there is plenty of time to decorate during the day if you cannot the night before. You can also get a lot of the photographs out of the way before it starts, giving you more time to enjoy your own reception.
• Sunsets & Stars
  While your daylight may be limited, your wedding will be going on when the sunset can give you an amazing backdrop. After that, if you have a venue where you will be outdoors, you've got the beautiful evening stars to dance underneath, and in the hottest summer months, the nights are comfortably cooler than at midday. The darkness also allows you to enhance the mood with the lighting.  
• Party Time 
  Most people are a lot more comfortable "letting loose" in the evening than they are in the middle of the day. Nighttime receptions seem to put guests in the mood to really cut it up on the dance floor and enjoy a great night out. 
• Guest Friendly
  Many parents are busy during the daytime with all of their children's activities and might not be able to miss those for a daytime wedding. An evening wedding lets them use your celebration as a date night. Even guests without children will have a fun night out to look forward to. They can take care of their daily activities, then save the evening to celebrate with you. It's also better for guests coming from out of town, because they have all day free to travel. 

Whether you decide to host a daytime or an evening wedding is one of the decisions that can only be made by you. Your situation will determine which one works the best, and at the end of the day, if it makes you happy, then it's the right choice for your wedding! 

The beautiful wedding dresses both in our Miami Bridal Boutique and available through our online wedding dress store will look amazing on you, no matter what time of the day you decide to get married. When you are ready to shop, make an appointment at Brides of America and we will help you find the perfect look. 

The gown of your dreams awaits you.

10 Amazing Honeymoon Destinations For The Newlyweds

Our wedding dress store in South Florida usually focuses on the things that take place before the wedding, like finding your dream dress! Today, we're turning our attention to the thing that keeps you from being disappointed that all of the wedding excitement is over... the honeymoon! 

Your destination choice will depend on the type of couple's vacation that interests you most: sunny beaches, snowy mountains, classic architecture, historical settings, delicious food, etc... Today Brides of America has pulled together 10 honeymoon destinations, both near and far away, that fulfill a variety of desires. 

Inside the U.S.A.
This country has a lovely variety of places to relax, explore, and enjoy an adventure as husband and wife. 

• Florida
  We recently wrote a blog talking about how Florida is an Amazing Wedding Destination. If you have chosen to travel here to get married, you can just stay and continue a wonderful honeymoon right here too. We have some of the most beautiful beaches to lounge on, incredible shopping, exciting nightlife, and even some amazing theme parks to experience. Depending on where you stay - Miami, Key West, Palm Beaches, Naples, Marco Island, Orlando... - there's a little bit of everything for everyone.
    
• California
  Traveling to the other coast puts you in Wine Country. Spend a relaxing honeymoon tasting a variety of delicious wines, biking the countryside, and enjoying some fantastic resorts with unique spa treatments. Hundreds of wineries can be found in the areas of Napa Valley and the Sonoma Valley alone. And of course, they also have some wonderful beaches too.
  
  
• Colorado
  Maybe the two of you prefer to escape to the mountains. Colorado has multiple elevations that each have something special to offer. There are trails to hike, mountains to climb, and incredible hot springs to enjoy. And of course, you can find lots of places to play in the snow. Ski all day, then warm up and get cozy in the resort all night.
   
• Hawaii
  The next two honeymoon destinations are a part of the United States, but you do have to travel a ways to get to them. The Hawaiian Islands offer a picturesque vacation getaway. You'll find tropical gardens, scenic waterfalls, romantic sunsets on the beach, delicious cuisine, and more. There are multiple islands to choose from, or you can spend a few days island-hopping.
      
• Alaska
  Alaska is not just a frozen wasteland. There are plenty of places for romance. You can take an excursion cruise or even kayak in the sea and search for whales, otters, and seals. There is excellent fishing and hiking amidst breathtaking natural scenery. Stay in a luxury hotel, or rent a car and experience a few day trips traveling. Definitely don't miss the glacier tours too.    

Traveling Abroad
If you prefer to travel far away from home, possibly to someplace exotic and brand new to the both of you, then the following destinations may interest you more.  

• Bora Bora
  This small island is only 6 miles long and about 2 miles wide, but that tiny area is overflowing with beauty. It is all centered around a dormant volcano, and features lush jungle and aquamarine lagoons. Imagine the most fabulous tropical island paradise you can, and that's pretty much what you'll get here. You can spend your days snorkeling or exploring, or you can simply laze around on the beach and enjoy each other's company with a few cocktails.
   
• Venice
  Italy features many intriguing places to visit, one of which is Venice. You can take a romantic stroll around the Piazza San Marco, then take a magical gondola ride through the Grand Canal, or even visit one of the unspoiled islands nearby. Best of all, authentic Italian food is a special experience of its own.
  
  
• Paris
  Nothing says romance like a sunset view of the Eiffel Tower. The feeling you get while you are in Paris is laid back and relaxed. Sip red wine on the plaza, and spend your days viewing some of the most amazing art in some of the most famous museums in the world. If fine dining, culture, and romance are your idea of a perfect getaway for two, then this is the place for you.
   
• Morocco
  Creative individuals have traveled to this exotic location for decades for inspiration. You will find mazes of markets filled with incredible items, belly dancers, snake charmers, acrobats, and more. There are marvelous bohemian coastal towns to explore, fantastic sunsets over the dunes of the Sahara to marvel at, and even snow topped mountains full of amazement.
  
  
• Greece
  The Greek Islands are a very popular honeymoon destination. There are villages perched high on the cliffs overlooking the sea. A myriad of hip boutiques, bars, and cafes abound, and you will find the best beaches in the Aegean. Between days on the beach and evenings in the clubs, there is plenty of relaxation and excitement combined, plus the gorgeous views of the countryside it is all set in.
   

Planning a fabulous honeymoon is a wonderful break during the wedding planning. It's one of the fun tasks that you get to tackle, much like shopping for your dream bridal gown. 

When you make an appointment at our Miami bridal boutique, our goal is not only to make sure that you find the perfect wedding dress, but also that you enjoy the experience. Brides of America will pamper you while you are here, making you feel like a princess.

Big Fashion For The Smallest Bridal Party Member - Your Flower Girl

Brides of America knows that finding the perfect dress to wear on your very special day can be a dream come true. Once you've accomplished that and picked out some amazing bridesmaid gowns, you can start looking at adorable little dresses to put your flower girl in. You will find many beautiful choices at our Miami bridal boutique from the incredible Joan Calabrese, and in today's blog, we've put together a few tips and ideas for the littlest beauty at your wedding. 

Choosing Your Flower Girl
Traditionally, the young lady gently dropping flower petals to adorn the bride's walk down the aisle is under the age of 10. Of course, when it comes to your wedding, that's completely up to you. There is no set rule saying older girls cannot be a flower girl, and we've even seen some sweet photos online from a couple that used their grandmother's in this role. 

As far as the number of flower girls, one is sufficiently adorable enough to please the crowd and get the job done. Two young ladies allow them to help each other down the aisle, making it a little less scary. If you want to have an entire parade of flower girls announcing your entrance, well, that could be pretty impressive. Definitely something your guests will remember!

Getting Her Ready For Your Big Day
If your flower girl is very young, she may need a little more prep work than an older girl. Walking down that long aisle with lots of strangers staring at you can be intimidating for a child. Get her excited by talking about it often before the wedding, and make sure that she is at the rehearsal for practice. Also, make sure that someone she trusts is at the front of the ceremony to coax her down the aisle, and another trusted person is at the back of the aisle to get the walk started. Never expect a young child to stand through the entire ceremony. They could get bored, and it's very likely that they will distract your guests from the important part - your vows.   

Picking The Perfect Dress
When it comes time to dress shop, we suggest having a style in mind that will work well with your overall wedding plans, but listen to your flower girl's opinions too. Find a few dresses that you love, then bring her in to pick her favorite from those. Your flower girl will be much more cooperative if she gets to make some of her own decisions. Brides of America will help to make sure that this particular shopping trip is a very special experience for her. 

The Fashions of Joan Calabrese
You will find the best flower girl dresses in Miami within our walls, and that is due to the fact that we carry the amazing collections of Joan Calabrese. Joan grew up in Philadelphia, born into a family of Italian artisans. Her love of fashion blossomed at an early age. She began sewing clothing for her dolls from the fabric scraps that she collected. Eventually earning a full scholarship to the Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia, she chose to turn it down and stay home with her family instead. That did not stop her from pursuing her passion though. Having two young daughters of her own, Joan decided to create fabulous clothing for children. 

Her now successful business began in 1975 with an order for 40 dresses that she crafted in her basement studio. Not long after that, large orders began pouring in. Her clothing has been worn by young members of the British Royal Family, daughters of many Heads of State, and numerous celebrity children. The Metropolitan Museum of Art features two of Joan's designs in their Permanent Collection of their Costume Institute, and she has even been installed in the Costume Collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Joan makes it a point to attend fabric shows in Paris twice a year. Her design inspiration comes from European fashion and couture fashion publications. Fine fabrication is extremely important to her, and her dresses are well-known for their exquisite fabric and detail, as well as pristine lines. Every little girl will feel as special and pretty as the bride in one of these adorable and whimsical flower girl dresses.

Finding the perfect flower girl for your wedding is one of the more fun things that you will have to do during your wedding planning. It's Brides of America's pleasure to help you find the perfect flower girl dress for her. Let our Miami bridal boutique put you in the most amazing wedding dress, then we'll get to work on all of the rest of the wedding day fashions too. 

The gown of your dreams awaits you.

Helpful Tips For Planning A Holiday Wedding

The holidays are coming, and so is engagement season! Well, technically, it officially begins with Thanksgiving and ends around Valentine's Day, so it's happening right now! Many couples spend about a year wedding planning, which means that many newly engaged couples may be planning to get married during the holidays next year. Brides of America has some helpful advice for these brides & grooms. 

Embrace the Season
You can pull a lot of inspiration from the wonderful celebrations that happen in the month of December. The colors, flavors, and natural decor of the season offer a lot of ideas to borrow from. While you want your guests to feel like they are at a wedding rather than a regular holiday party, it's okay to add in a few traditions here and there. 

Favors can be wrapped like presents with pretty papers and fancy bows. You signature drinks can incorporate cranberry, apple cider, or even hot chocolate. Lots and lots of greenery will save you money on florals and fit right in with the look and feel of the season. 

Holiday Color Inspiration 
Red is a very popular color to use during the month of December, and it can be paired beautifully with white or green. A cooler blue and shiny silver is also gorgeous, very reminiscent of a winter wonderland. 

This year, Brides of America is noticing a lot less red and green and a lot more blush and eggplant. It is a very sophisticated, earthly color palette, reminding us of classic holidays of the past. Our personal experience with this trend comes from the many beautiful bridesmaid dresses that are being chosen by bridal parties at our Miami bridal boutique.

Save-The-Dates Are A Must
One very important thing that you must do when planning a holiday wedding is to let your guests know about it early. The more notice that they have, the more likely they will be able to work your wedding into their busy holiday schedule. If they will be visiting from out of town, booking travel arrangements early might help them to save a little on those holiday travel price increases. 

Realize That Holidays Are Busy
Even with plenty of advance notice, realize going into your planning that some of your guests may already have too many family activities and annual holiday events to attend. This means that your guest count may be lower than it would be at another time of the year. 

Not only may your guests be busier than usual, but so will your wedding vendors. Venues tend to book up quickly because of the increased amount of parties being thrown this time of year. Many of those celebrations use the same vendors that you will hire for your wedding, and the high demand often means that those vendors' prices go up. 

Beauty For The Holidays
Even if a holiday wedding is not in your near future, our gorgeous bridesmaid gowns make excellent party dresses. Our store is filled with the very best special occasion dresses in South Florida. We would love to help you find the perfect one to make you the Belle of any Ball this season! 

If you happen to be one of the lucky ladies to become engaged this year, Brides of America is ready to book your shopping appointment so that you can find your dream wedding dress. Our Morilee Bridal Fall Trunk Show is in its final days, ending on Monday, December 5, 2016. We do have a few appointments still available, and if you are in need of a bridal gown, this is an excellent time to find one! 

The gown of your dreams awaits you.
