Happy Holidays! Hope this finds you with your Christmas shopping list complete, your cookies made, your pretzels dipped and your presents wrapped! Its the season of beautiful winter weddings…yes I know, it has to snow first. No snow still doesn’t take away from the beauty of a wedding! What about the elegance and fun of a New Years Eve wedding. Ahhhh….how romantic! Ringing in the New Year as a newly married couple! Or, how about starting your New Year as a newly engaged couple!!! What ever way you are starting your New Year, the staff here at Visuelle Productions wish you a VERY Merry Christmas and a BEAUTIFUL New Year!!
Flower Girls and Ringbearers

OH MY GOSH!!! There is NO denying it!! These 2 are way too cute for words!!! They definitely stole the show….well, the first 10
minutes of it anyway!! This walk down the aisle went off with out a hitch or a hiccup. They were perfectly well-behaved and
loved the attention. I must tell you that the ring-bearer did put a big smile on his face when he saw his God Father (aka the
Groom) standing in front of church!
When you have little ones participate in your wedding, you never know how it will turn out! The best motto…be prepared to
accept whatever happens. If their walk down the aisle isn’t perfect, don’t fret. No one will know that they are not in the exact
spot they are supposed to be….all of your guests will be too busy ohhhing and aahhing over how darn cute they are.
To help them out, if there is time, take them to the venue a couple of times the week before the wedding so they become
familiar with the surroundings and what you would like them to do. During your actual rehearsal, have your extra guests sit at the end of the aisle so when they are walking down the aisle it will closely mimic the actual day. Make sure to have on hand some of their favorite snacks…..bribery with gummy bears has a good track record. If your ceremony will be more on the formal side, have books, coloring books and small things to keep them occupied. You may want to keep their parent seated at the end of the aisle so if something does go kittywaumpus they are right there to step in and give the little ones a helping hand.
Remember, whatever happens, it will bring a smile to your face.
If any of you have a story to share, good, bad, or ugly, about little ones in a wedding I would love to hear. Please share!!

I would like to share a bit of fascinating information that we learned in Vegas.
This is from Matt and Bruce, the Wedding Guys. You can find them at www.theweddingguys.com. They have lots of great information and I would like to let you in on their top 10 trends of the wedding season.
10-The fascinator. This decorative head piece with feathers or flowers.
9-The choices in music are going more to the classical.
8-Having that fairytale carriage ride to and from your ceremony.
7-Changing the processional…having your Bridesmaids last, your personal assistant in a bridesmaid gown with a smaller bouquet going after the bride to make sure her dress and flowers are well taken care of.
6-Having pedestal arrangements, one large focal point works well with a small budget.
5-Having a monogram put on the cake where the bride and groom will take their first slice.
4-Re-purposing of the arrangements…using small trees and beautiful bushes as your decorations and then planting them is a great way to give back.
3-The use of technology. Having your wedding live streamed for those that are unable to attend.
2-It’s called farm to table. Using meats and foods that are grown right in your own county.
And the number 1 trend-1940′s & 50′s fashion..classic styling, beautiful sleeves on gowns.
A great tip from the guys is taking something traditional and putting a new twist on it. Have the Groomsman hand the Bridesmaids their bouquets. Literally roll out the red carpet for the reception, having an all white or ivory wedding party…….Remember, the sky is the limit! This is YOUR day and there are no rules.
Thanks to the Wedding Guys for all of the great information!!

Since we found some sassy shoes, now lets see what kind of gowns we can find.
First, figure out what kind of styles you like, then when you go shopping, forget everything you thought you liked! It’s been my experience that once you hit that dress shop and try on ONLY the style you liked in a magazine you end up thinking….”what WAS I thinking”. Keep an open mind, try on at least one of every style……….you NEVER know until you try.
Lets take a look at some of the styles that are out there…..
The lines of this dress are stunning. Not all of us can wear this style…but for those of you that can, I say go for it!! It wraps up elegance and fun all into one dress.
This sheath style is fabulous for that perfect destination wedding. What about a beautiful garden wedding. The lace is simple elegance. Kate gave new life to lace with her stunning dress by Sara Burton for Alexander McQueen.
What about this stunning A-line dress. This has nothing on your mom’s dress. A-Line dresses are stunning and hide a multitude of sins
The straps on this stunning gown don’t take away from it’s beauty, it adds another dimension.
Let’s not forget about the Belle of the Ball! How can you not look at this and think……Princess? Who wouldn’t feel like an absolute dream in this stunning gown?
Almost every little girl has thought about her dream wedding at some time in some way. Not every dress will fit into your image of THE one. The fun part is finding out. Fill that dressing room with satin, lace, organza, taffeta and tulle and have a ball! Joke, laugh, think OMG….no one outside this dressing room will ever see me in something like this. And then, maybe just a tear when you put on that very next dress and you look in the mirror and say….this is it.
Wedding Shoes

This topic sends a sweet shiver down my spine…..as a matter of fact, I get a little school girl giddy when I talk about…………….SHOES! Oh those beautiful wedding shoes. No dress is complete with the the perfect stilettos……strappy rhineston sandal…..gorgeous satin slip on. Your shoes can be an elegant, classic extension of your dress or they can be that peek-a-boo fabulous flirty side of you! Entire color schemes have been planned around the perfect pair of shoes!!
How about these spectacular packs-a-punch dream shoes. Dye them in your favorite color and you have a winner!Imagine your Bridesmaids wearing the same shoe in your oh so awesome wedding colors. These are gorgeous!
What about these classic slip on-s? Aren’t they fab!!! Leave them white/ivory to match your gown and have the girl’s shoes dyed to a contrasting sassy color of their dresses. These would be great with a short Bridesmaid dress, let the bow do the talking!
What about this stunning wedge? These are perfect for an outdoor wedding at a park or anywhere that has you walking on a grassy surface. They won’t sink into the grass
They are not only functional they are fun and stylish!
Lets not forget that sheer comfort does not have to be dull and boring! Look at these sassy little things! The little straps make these shoes definitely sexy yet the heel gives you all day wearability. What a great combination!!!!
No matter what shoe you chose, make sure it’s a reflection of you! If you are going for the high styles, make sure that your girls have lower options for the remainder of the day….cute little flip flops make great gifts. If you are anything like me, shoe shopping will NOT be a chore. Happy Shopping!
