We believe that brides today are demanding so much more of a bridesmaids
dress. It is not unusual for a cost-conscious bride to ask their
maids to buy, or contribute to, their own gowns, it's no wonder
that the girls are demanding a greater say in what they wear. As
a result, funky, wear-again styles are much more in vogue, and as
one type of dress may not suit everyone, we are finding that more
and more brides are dictating colour, but then allowing their attendants
to choose the style. As long as the bride is happy with their decisions
this can work well. See you all in Stow on the Wold soon.

Why Do the Attendants Dress Alike?
The bridesmaids, ushers, and entire bridal party dress very much like
the bride and groom? It was once common for the bride, her groom and all
their friends to walk together to the church on the morning of the wedding.
Afraid that someone, maybe a rejected suitor, would spot the happy couple
and put a curse on them. The groom's friends wore clothes almost identical
to his, and the women costumed themselves like the bride. These disguises
tricked evil wishers into letting the real bride and groom live happily
ever after. Of course, today we dress our attendants alike for the overall
look and theme of the day.
|
Why the Blue on the Garter?
Why this "Something Blue?" In ancient Israel, brides wore a
blue ribbon to signify "fidelity." The garter-throwing itself
derives from a bawdy ritual called "flinging the stocking."
In Britain, the guests would playfully invade the bridal chamber. The
ushers grabbed the bride's stockings; the maids; the grooms. They took
turns sitting at the foot of the bed flinging the stockings over the heads
of the couple. Whoever's stocking landed on the bride's or the groom's
nose would be the next to wed.
Today, many brides will wear two garters. The one she wishes to keep
as a memento of her wedding day, possibly to be displayed on her grooms
rear view mirror, and another, to be retrieved and tossed by the groom
to all the young unmarried men attending the event. The "toss garter"
is likely to be in the color of the wedding, and not as elaborate as the
more decorative garters kept by the bride.
|
Why Does the Bride Carry Flowers?
For centuries, flowers have stood for a variety of emotions and values.
Roses for love, lilies for virtue and so on. In ancient marriages, the
brides carried herbs beneath their veils to symbolize fidelity. Greek
brides carried ivy as a symbol of never-ending love. Orange blossoms,
(the world renowned wedding flower) were chosen by the Spaniards to represent
happiness and fulfillment, because the orange tree flowers and bears fruit
at the same time. During even earlier times of "primitive marriage,"
when the fear of demons was most prevalent, the brides carried stinking
garlands of herbs and spices for the purpose of frightening off evil spirits.
Today, brides carry flowers in the color scheme of their wedding, bringing
beauty, fragrance and elegance as well as old world customs to their special
day.
