An extremely simple yet sophisticated gown. This dress has a simple bodice with a classical boat neck. Below the bust the simple bodice turns into folded ivory layers across the front down to the knees whereby it gently passes around the body on both sides to the back where they carefully meet. They join at the back of this lovely dress where from the underneath comes a beautiful chiffon train. There are tiny covered buttons to the back but a zip for ease of use.

2 Year Old Wedding Cake

This is what happens to a wedding cake if you don't eat it at your 1 year (traditional date) anniversary.

This wedding cake was pulled out of the freezer after being stored for over 2 years! Not a pretty site!

While it's recommended that you eat your preserved cake no later than 3 months after the day it is made, more and more brides are choosing the option of having their baker create a 1-year anniversary cake to celebrate the day. Probably helps cut down on the not-so-fresh freezer burn flavor. Bon Appétit!

Ivory Wedding Dresses

Ivory Wedding Dresses

It is a worldwide tradition that the brides should be in white on the wedding day. It is beyond doubt that many brides look gorgeous in stark-white dresses but those women who have fair skin complexion do not. These brides look pale and insignificant when they have white clothes on. Red-haired women also look improper and a bit weird in a traditional white dress. A great way of handling this problem for the two types of brides mentioned above is to wear an ivory wedding dress.

All the styles of traditional white gowns have an ivory wedding dress equivalent. The idea of adding a little colour to your dress but still wearing "white" on your wedding is appealing to many women. Gowns in this beautiful colour suit almost every skin tone and they do not make the ladies wearing them look washed out, nor pale.

Many women like to have quite many beauty-enhancing procedures before their special occasion. In case you have rich, dark hair and you have tanned skin, sticking to the traditional white bridal dress is a good idea. Women of colour could also only benefit from choosing a stark-white gown for the big day as the skin tones are rich and beautiful. If you are one of the types mentioned here, then you don't have to worry about looking washed out regardless of the stark white. The contrast can only make you look stunning.

However, there are many women who do not tan but get sun-burnt during the summer. These ladies are advised to go for an ivory wedding dress. The added colours will offset fair complexion whereas stark white would simply wash it away. Avoid washing off your alabaster skin by choosing an ivory bridal attire.

Red-haired ladies should also consider an ivory wedding dress. Generally, there are two kinds of redheads. The first kind is the classic red, the second - the auburn redhead. While the first has natural curls with orange-red locks, the second might look like a brunette in certain lighting. I am an auburn redhead, so the last statement concerns me.

This is the kind of dresses everyone loves to wear and it brings out your best. Goth as we all know takes us back to a different period of time and makes a very bold impression on people. Formal gothic dresses look good on men and women both.

The dress is absolutely beautiful, hangs perfectly and is in perfect condition. It has been cleaned and is ready to wear. It can be seen on the Claire Pettibone website and was purchased from Blackheath Brides for £2600 in July 2009. I wore 4 inch heels on the day but the dress was slightly too long for me so it could be worn by a taller bride. The back and train really added to the overall appearance of the dress.
