Be Prepared to be Wowed! with Adina's Bridal

When I came across Adina's Bridal and saw the dresses I immediately thought this is exactly how I envision DIY weddings! Unique, gorgeous, styles to fit every bride, and prices that fit well within a frugal DIY wedding budget.

 DIY Garden Wedding

 DIY Vinyard Wedding

 DIY Beach Wedding

 DIY Woodland Wedding

You can find top designer names at Adina's Bridal like J. Crew, BHLDN, and Adrianna Papell. If you are all about scoring an amazing deal you can even find sample gowns from Justin Alexander, Coco Anais, Tara Keely, & others! One of the best things about browsing Adina's Bridal shop is that you will also find bridesmaid dresses, cover-ups, shoes, bridal accessories & lingerie. I seriously can't get enough of these styles and the look that can be created with the stunning selection in this shop. There are so many cookie cutter online wedding dress boutiques but this is one that stands out with amazing style.

Just look at what is trending on Instagram...

When you are browsing be sure to check out the Event Dresses! I seriously want them all!!!! Such an eclectic collection ranging from vintage to modern... I LOVE it :) I have said it before with many wedding trends and wedding locations and I will say it again in this regard. If I was getting re-married (to my husband of course) and planning another wedding I would be purchasing my bridal gown and bridesmaid dresses at Adina's Bridal.

Just look how amazing some of these dresses are in real weddings!

If you are in the Los Angeles, CA area and are interested in trying on any of the dresses that Adina's Bridal sells, you can contact them to schedule an appointment HERE!

And I wasn't joking about the accessories; Adina's Bridal has the most amazing collection of accessories I have ever seen! Even if you don't get your wedding gown here, the accessories are a must have! Look at just some of the amazing finds from head to toe...

 

I envy all you brides to be... swoon!

WEDDING TREND ALERT! Hen Parties

What is a Hen Party you ask? Well for those in the UK, there is no question but for Canadian and U.S brides-to-be a Hen Party or "Hen Do" is essentially a bachelorette party. Many brides are aware of and participate in parties to celebrate the bride-to-be however, what is on trend now is turning your Hen Party into a vacation for the gals!

Hen Party Despidalia specializes in bachelorette parties, private and original in Barcelona. They take care of the shows, dinners, accommodation; everything a bride-to-be and her party need. Despidalia is #1 in Barcelona for Spanish girls, and have now hit the international market! Who wouldn't love to go on a vacation with their besties to celebrate one of the most exciting events in their life?! This is one of those experiences that if I could go back and do things over again I would have planned a Hen Party away with my bridal party to create unforgettable memories that you don't often get the opportunity to take advantage of once you start building a family with a house and kids...

When you get married life changes, in a lot of ways for the better but I'm not going to lie... you are going to experience challenges too. A trip with the girls can be that experience that doesn't always happen but grounds you in who you are as an individual and celebrating all that is you and the next big life stage to come. You can make the trip as simple or extravagant as you desire. One of my favorite things about Despidalia is the "Build Your Hen Do" section.  I like just playing around with all the options to imagine the get away I could have! Maybe when the kids are a little older and money is less tight I will plan my Hen Party as a celebration of my accomplishments in marriage ;)

 

Let the adventures begin... You totally deserve it. Weddings are something worth celebrating with your friends!

And don't forget customized bachelorette T-shirts are a must when celebrating! T-Shirt Studio prints personalized t-shirts among other things and one of their most popular items are sets of shirts for hen nights, stag and doe's, or even bridal party personalized tees. You can simply use the templates already created for your pre-wedding parties or you can get your creative juices flowing and design your own!

I would love to hear your plans for pre-wedding celebrations and if you have already had a Hen Party what were your must do's?

Life is worth celebrating!

How great it would feel to not have to think about any of the logistics of food and drinks or cleaning up as the evening goes on and just enjoying the time with family and friends celebrating your special day.
