Some Wedding Articles

Today’s edition of the Toronto Star features several-wedding themed articles (because of Valentine Day???) but while there are quite a few pieces, most of them aren’t very useful. Some, like this piece on flowers, don’t really contain any practical details while this piece on bridal fashion reminds us that the bride should be dazzling since it’s her big day.

Then we have the story of Marco and Christine’s elegant, laid-back wedding at a castle in France. It does sound like a lovely wedding that completely suits the couple and, since the bride grew up near the castle, makes sense geographically for them. But it’s not really a story that most Toronto brides are going to find useful.

Thankfully there are a trio of articles that are worth your time. Photo booths are the big must-have element to have at your wedding right now and if you want to hop on that trend, you’ll want to read this piece on where you can rent one.

This article on bridal beauty contains some useful tips (do wear make-up but skip the tanning booth) as well as info on Gee Beauty’s customized skin-care regime for brides (I wish I had the extra cash for that).

Then there’s this story on Twobirds Bridemaids. Twobird dresses sound amazing so it’s too bad that no local shops sell them and that the designer, who’s in Toronto this weekend, is fully book with appointments. Well, here’s hoping her plan to open a store in Yorkville this fall comes true.
