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. It is aimed at confident brides, proud of their bumps..All the dresses are  beautiful and made with attention to detail and delicate materials perfect for any bride.

One of the biggest decision a bride needs to make is whether she will wear a veil, a headpiece, flowers, or nothing at all to adorn her head. I love adornments and so if I were to get married all over again, I think I might forgo the veil and opt for a beautiful head piece. Headdressdesigns is a coutoure bridal accessories brand that offers a touch of uniqueness and elegance with a modern twist.

Feathers, flowers, crystals.. any combination you want. They also custom make designs so you could have exactly what you want..

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??

To make an exotic trips there are alternatives to the famous travel to Punta Cana, or the Caribbean. Without leaving Spain and most affordable prices have trips to Canary Islands, which by its climate and proximity to the African continent have the same charm that many Caribbean islands. Places like the parrot park, or the beaches are a great place to have a time to relax. These vacations and the lure of the crisis will have many more places to look tailored to the economy.

I´m always in the search for delicate and feminine wedding dresses to offer in this blog and I just came across Enzoani, a couture wedding designer based out of California that I think has a lot to offer. The dresses some hand-beaded Swarovski crystals are as delicate as you can get. Beautiful flowing designs worthy of any refined bride.

Their 2008 collection is silk and shimmer satin, french taffeta, silk chiffon and codavari silk in diamond white and ivory shades. And if these couture designs are a little out of your price range at the moment check out their low priced line at Blue by Enzoani .

A numerology believer myself, I think August 8, 2008 would be a spectacular day to get married . Not only is the date full of eights when you see it written but if you add 8 +8+2+0+0+8= 26 2+6=8. The number 8 in astrology represents power and luck. Although this date falls on a Friday, I think it could still be very popular next year, especially for many Chinese couples.

I remember trying to figure out what date would be the perfect for my own wedding, my husband thought it was crazy that I was putting so much time into investigating the perfect combination of numbers that would help make our marriage a strong and happy one full of love and vitality. So far, so good, after 11 years married, we are still very much in love and would love to renew our vows in the near future.

So, what do you think? Would you get married on this date?
