Alfred Angelo Knit Bridesmaids Collection - The Bridesmaids Dress You'll Want to Wear Again and Again

Alfred Angelo Knit Bridesmaids Collection - The Bridesmaids Dress You'll Want to Wear Again and Again

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 29 /PRNewswire/ --

Do you ever wonder why you still hold on to your bridesmaids dress?


(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20071129/NYFNSG02 )


Is it because somewhere deep inside, you hope to have an occasion to wear that beautiful dress again and look as lovely as you did that day? Perhaps, but that day never comes. Because in the end, even with the best intentions, a bridesmaid dress outside of a wedding always looks like, well, a bridesmaid dress ... until now!


Alfred Angelo unveils its latest collection of bridesmaid's dresses, the Knit Collection. Short and sassy or long and lean, made of ultra flattering knit jersey fabrics, this IS the bridesmaid dress you'll wear well beyond the wedding.


The new knits feature six versatile bridesmaid dress silhouettes, answering an increasing desire for bridesmaids to find a dress that is wedding appropriate, yet fashionable and wearable long after the wedding "I Do's" are said. More importantly, the fabric moves with a woman's body, and the supple knit jersey is smooth to the touch, adding an extra level of comfort not seen before in a bridesmaid collection.


"The fabric drapes beautifully and really flatters every body type," says designer Michael Shettel. "The combination of a unique fabric and trendy styling means these dresses truly can be worn again and again. Whether to a summer cocktail party, fancy dinner out, or next year's Holiday parties, they're that exceptional."


The collection is also the perfect choice for destination weddings. The jersey fabric packs beautifully, with minimal wrinkling during long flights, and is light weight, making for easy traveling to far away locales.


The new knit collection is available in nine beautiful colors: azure, midnight sky, scarlet, olive, azalea, chocolate, deep apple, lilac, and black, in sizes 2-28W to fit everyone in the party. The collection will be available in over 1000 bridal boutiques nationwide, as well as 37 Alfred Angelo company- owned boutiques, beginning February 2008.

Top 10 Eco-Honeymoon Resorts

Hideaways that help save the earth without skimping on romance

A private boat carries guests to Ranweli's secluded beach, but the resort is easy to access at just 11 miles from Colombo International Airport. The 72 beachfront double-occupancy bungalows and 12 river-view family suites at Ranweli resemble a traditional Sri Lankan village, and each is constructed with local building materials and offers an air-conditioned bedroom and solar-powered shower. There's a pool on the premises for the times when the sea waters are too rough for swimming, an on-site Ayurvedic spa offers herbal massages and other holistic treatments, and the resort’s resident naturalist takes guests on birding expeditions. Ranweli offers both Eastern and Western food—if you can take the heat, be sure to sample their deliciously spicy Sri Lankan curries.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20060925/NYM014LOGO )

1. A Lighter Touch -- lots of free-flowing, ethereal fabrics including
chiffon and organza with less embellishment, beading or other
adornments as in season's past.
2. Color, Color, Color! -- beyond the traditional white dress, color is
not just seen in bursts but in wonderful patterns, rich jewel tones
or new shades of pastels.
3. Jackets/Sleeves -- brides who want options beyond the traditional
strapless gown are thinking more fashion-forward with gowns that
offer more coverage.
4. Emphasis of the Waist -- honoring the female form, there were lots of
large flower corsages positioned right at the hip to draw attention
to an hourglass figure.
5. New Lengths in Gowns -- tea length to above-the-knee, there was a
larger variety in gown lengths than ever before.

Usher Raymond and Tameka Foster Put Off Their Wedding

Usher Raymond and his pregnant fiance Tameka Foster canceled their wedding for reasons best known to them. The Daily Blabber has all the details of the rumours on the wedding fiasco.

Some rumour mongers pointed accusing fingers at his mother.Every mother in-law should mind their business and stop messing around the love affairs of their sons and daughters.

Why should anyone even call Usher's girlfriend Tameka Foster a bitch?
Do you know her?
Have you spent some quality time with her?
Hello!
It takes two to tango!

Others said Usher was bi-sexual?
Anybody just wants to come online and whine about celebs they have never even met!
Calling Usher bi-sexual?
Gosh!

Usher slept with Tameka Foster and she got pregnant. Period.
He has to take full responsibility for it.
He is comfortable enough to start his own family.
He cannot be Mommy's boy forever.
Usher should be man enough to marry the woman carrying his child if he truly loves her.

She has children from a previous marriage?
So what?
So single mothers should become nuns?
Usher should sleep with younger girls?
What is wrong with older women?
Older women are better.And I am speaking from experience.

Only time will tell if you truly love someone.
Because, you need time to prove your love.

The ABC of Wedding Planning

Wedding Planning Do's & Don'ts

Here is a good summary of what you should and shouldn't be doing when you are planning your wedding.

Remember, that as long as your planning for your wedding is done well in advance, you control your budget, and everyone who is involved in your wedding knows what is required, then your special day will be perfect.

Wedding Planning Must Do's
Plan

Plan your wedding thoroughly, down to all the last little details. The best way to do this is to follow a wedding plan. Give your self a "time line" in which you need to get bookings made, or fittings done by.

Budget

You don't always have to spend a lot of money to have a beautiful wedding. Sometimes, less is more, if done correctly.It can be very easy to overspend without even knowing that you are overspending. The best way to do this is to have a wedding budget for everything, from the wedding dress to the flowers.

Coordinate

It is very important to use your wedding planning guide to coordinate everything that you do. This will insure that everything that needs to be done, is done, and when it needs to be done by.

Wedding Planning Don'ts
Don't Rush

Don't rush into making any fast decisions. Take your time and make sure that the decisions you make are good ones, especially when it comes to choosing professionals, such as photographers or caterers.
Cheap isn't always goodHiring cheap professionals may not always be the right decision. Some things are worth paying that little bit extra for. Remember, a good picture can bring back amazing thoughts and memories, and a bad one will bring back nothing.

Assumption

Well we all know what they say about assumption. Always get everything in writing. This will only make things easier for you if anything should go awry.

The Guests

You don't have to invite every single person you have ever known to your wedding. Remember that this is your special day! Spend it with those people who mean the most to you and your spouse, and will make your wedding special for the two of you.
