A wedding is a celebration of two hearts to be joined forever. You promise to be each other’s light in the darkness for as long as you both shall live. A superb way to express this promise is to celebrate your wedding vows with lights illuminating the dark evening sky.

If you choose to celebrate dashingly, you can go for wedding fireworks. Not only is it a great show for everyone, it is also a spectacular moment for you two. Take a moment and behold the spectacle embracing your beloved. Enjoy a viaje romántico like this will be a unique experience.

If you want a more serene celebration, wedding lanterns are a great alternative.  They’re a wonderful and romantic sight on the most enchanting day of your lives. You and your guests can all let them ascend into the nights sky.

Next to all the planning you have to do for your wedding day, choosing a honeymoon destination might seem a hard choice. Which destinations do others like, which destinations are popular, which destination will give our new life together a relaxing start? Modern Bride magazine has conducted a survey of 6,000 of the nation´s top travel agents. These are the destinations that came out on top.

On number three, Tahiti. Tahiti is only a tiny slice in the South Pacific, but makes up for it’s size in romanticism. The “isle of love” has nice temperatures all year round, so the time of year doesn’t matter.

Hawaii, the country of gorgeous beaches comes in second. Are you up for excitement or do you want to relax? Or both? Everything goes in Hawaii. Active volcanoes, surfing, snorkeling, relaxing on the endless white beaches, … Even helicopter flights and cruise ships are at your fingertips.

Italy appears to be the most popular honeymoon destination. Just imagine the gondola rides in Venice, could there be anything more romantic? Besides all the culture in the Mediterranean country, Italy is a feast for the taste as well with it’s wonderful wines and gourmet cuisine.

Even though white wedding dresses stand for virginity, nowadays there’s nothing wrong with wanting a dress that’s a tad spicy. After all, your wedding day will be a day you’ll always remember and a dress should fit your personality as well as it fits your body. Even though your grandmother may have had something else in mind, the main goal is for you feel the princess of the day.

With their Fall 2008 bridal collection, Badgley Mischka have created some of this year’s sexiest dresses in my opinion. These dresses have managed to astonish me with their feminine curves and seductive details. Imagine how your husband will crave for you from the moment he sees you.

One of my favourites is the lacy dress for it’s smoky colour and it’s suggestive translucent lace top. My absolute favourite is the white dress with corset cable finish, for it’s dainty shape and showing just enough -but not too much- back.

Not everything has to happen in the order in which some people think it should happen. What I´m getting at is that getting married means that soon after you will have a baby, at least that is what every little girl is told as she is growing up. But we all know that in this century, that doesn´t quite happen this way anymore. There are many brides to be who happen to get pregnant during the preparation of their wedding or decide to get married once a baby is on the way.

Thankfully, there are many options when looking for maternity dresses and one of those is Madeline Isaac-James maternity wedding dresses who offers a stylish collection of maternity bridal wear that is designed not to hide the pregnancy but to accentuate it.

Leap year is here and it is that time of the year when a woman according to old legends is allowed (now that sounds silly nowadays) to propose to a man..Years a go I´m sure this seemed like a big deal but in these modern times, women are more apt to propose to man, or are they???? Talking with a girlfriend last night, she said she was going to go for it, she was ready to take the big step and seeing that her boyfriend was not, she was willing to give him the push…She is planning on sending him flowers to his place of work with a romantic love note, expressing her desire to become his wife!!

I can´t wait to hear how it all goes..What do you think? Should a woman take that afirmative step, and should she have to wait for a Leap year to do it??
