What I Love - Indie Weddings

I love indie weddings. I love the weddings where the friends and family help make the food and the wedding is in someone's back yard. Everyone helps and has an investment in the couple.



I love when the groom doesn't care nearly as much about the gown as the getting the girl in the gown at the end of the day.



I love when the bride wants to be breathtaking and yet is still surprised when the groom is overwhelmed a bit.



I love couples that just want to be together despite having no money for the wedding, the place to live, the dress and tux, the insurance payment.



I love sweet self-sacrificing lovers who want to take care of and make each other happy.




Second Wedding and Vow Renewals....What to Wear ?




Lots of times couples renew their vows or get married a second time. They don't really want a big fancy wedding like before. Some couples go off to an island and enjoy a second honeymoon and time to relax after they renew their vows. It can take just minutes and what you have left are the pictures, the suntan and a lot of fun. But usually you don't want to agonize over the dress...you did that once !




For second weddings the best ideas are convenient, pretty and re-wearable. You may want a long dress, but on a beach you could be better in tea length or a short, island style dress. Short of a sarong, your best bet is a floaty, wispy dress that will catch the island breezes and look awesome for the pictures. Some brides want a print or colorful gown. Others just want a simpler, romantic look.




Most people will choose a dress from a retailer online or a department store - just something that fits and will work...and they'll add jewelry or a flower lei necklace to dress it up. But some brides want to do a more one off, unique look that they maybe couldn't have afforded when they got hitched back when. For them, a one of a kind look can make sense.





So what you look for then is cotton, maybe linen. Something not too serious. Something a little wispy, sexy or a bit flirty, cool and flowing to move in the island breeze. Island wedding brides...this collection's for you !
