It's all about flowers

The most integral accessory to your wedding day is your flowers. It is the last thing you choose for your wedding collection after making choice of wedding gown, color, theme etc. With so many bouquet designs available, you need to make sure your flowers will compliment your choices most especially the gown. Whether your gown is full skirted with a hoop or a slender body fitting design, it is important to choose a wedding bouquet that is styled and designed to accessorize it.

Your height, weight and body type determines your bridal gown, so too does it impact heavily on your wedding bouquet style. Certain style bouquets will suit some gowns over others.

Trailing designs, cascading drop bouquets and classic teardrop designs are very much back in vogue. Vintage posies and hand held arm sheaths are classic choices, forever popular and very now.


Other accessories include center pieces, button holes for the gents, wrist corsage for the ladies, passage posies and pomanders.

In a wedding, flowers not only provide color and scent, they also symbolize life, growth and rebirth. They are also good conversation starter after food and the dress, among the things guests will remember most.

Fruit magic

I was reading this Indian wedding magazine the other day and I saw a photo of nice fruits arrangements as the center piece. In mind I said why not apply this creativity in our local world? Considering flowers and fruits might have the same prices when it comes to buying, so if you are worried about the expenses do the research.


We are so blessed with fruits of all kinds, sizes and colors. All you have to do is get someone who is creative and is willing to think out of the box to create something as beautiful to your satisfaction.
Here are some of the ideas I got around but you might want something different… If you try this and it works please share with me.







NOTE: Consider the weather, season and location as well as the oxidation process of the fruits (Maybe preservatives might work…)

All white wedding dress

I saw these dresses on a website I was perusing today and these were what I chose from a large collection.

They are design by a french designer and the pics were taken during a bridal show...

Things that caught my eye on this dress are; material used and artistic design with less details i.e beads and blings...

Now this is much simpler and I love it. Single shoulders is the latest style everywhere in the world and this is it... less details tells more of it

The great Nigerian Wedding

In my entire wedding experience I found this huge wedding affair on Belle Naija and I could not get enough. I call it a magnificent wedding affair because it comprises of several parties to its completion.

Above are a few images of the other traditional events before the reception day below:





... This is what most of the guests were wearing. I loved the idea of uniformity...it's all about gold for the ladies and black tuxedo &white shirts

The Cakes... are what we call celebrity cakes
