Unique themed wedding

A Burlington Ontario couple’s July 17th wedding featured on Rich Bride, Poor Bride Tuesday February 1st 2011 will definitely not be one to miss! Amy & Tyler Brands had a very elegant, pink ceremony, just like the bride always dreamed of. When guests entered the reception, they were shocked to find the wedding that Tyler had always dreamed of; a New England Patriots themed celebration. All of the linens had blue or red overlay, red napkins and the Patriots’ logo was everywhere! The guests were all seated using VIP passes; each table was also named after a current Pats player. Sticking to the theme, the newlyweds walked down green turf with yard lines painted on. The groom changed his suit to fit the theme for the reception, and the couple’s youngest daughter also sported a Patriots cheerleading outfit. The theme was also carried out through a five foot tall ice luge to pour their signature blue drink through, a football field with a helmet on top of the groom’s cake and colour coded foam fingers for the guests to wave around.
This wedding definitely is one to remember!

2011 at a glance

Well, January has come again and it's time for our spring and summer brides to start finalizing details surrounding their big day !

People are becoming more price savvy so I think 2011 will have a lot more 'do - it - yourself' aspects. I think a lot more invitations and favors will have a personalized touch especially with all of the neat craft items that are showing up in more stores. Flowers will still be a popular addition to centrepieces but I think it's possible for the non-traditional items like feathers and crystals to be more prevalent. Lavish multiple layered wedding cakes will be replaced with one smaller cutting cake and cucpakes or dessert bars - a greta option for saving the big bills ! Finally, I think the royal wedding will be a huge focus, with designers creating buzz around Kate's jewellery, veil and dress.
