Out of the Box Groom Style

     I had wanted to do a post about grooms wearing patterned shirts, due to the fact I believe it's just kind of a bold thing to do and I love fashion forward dudes.  In the process discount prom dresses  of researching, I found a treasure trove of BOLD and sometimes unusual Groom Attire! From Mama's Getting Married…. Genevieve and Eben's Montreal St. Albert, Alberta CA wedding took the scarf trend to a new level (and frankly, this groom is so cute, he could have shown up in a sweatsuit and looks dapper):
     From Rock n' Roll Bride (the best place for Groom-spiration) This unbelievable Marie Antoinette inspired bride and groom: This wedding was less outrageous, but still stylish as the groom and groomsmen wore vintage ties belonging to the groom's dad (via Snippet and Ink): Finally, here are the patterned shirts that started this entire post….. Happy, citrus stripes from Michael Norwood via life, love & lipstick   And Classic Callico from Rock 'n Roll bride: So, is your guy going traditional, or a bit more outside the box?
    Over many years, I have paid attention to my clients and wanted to provide drop ship prom dresses  them with a slew of entertainment options. I continue to create party packages, personalized details, and planning services that will help them. As we say, "We manage the details, you have the fun." Since 2001, I have been approached by party attendees, wedding professionals, and aspiring party planners, who ask me how they can do what I do. In addition, I realize I can not be in all places at the same time and provide services to everyone that is interested. In an effort to reach an expanding group of bachelorette parties, I developed the Party Consultant program which allows individuals to become a part elegant prom dresses  of the business, be their own boss, receive training and support, and expand our team. How large and small are the parties able to be? While the average party is 12 girls, we’ve prepared them for groups as small as 5 and as large as Jessica Simpson’s with 50. We can plan for groups larger than that but it just takes some extra details to ensure everyone’s having fun and not just lost in the crowd.

Now in New York

     Thursday, I had the pleasure of stopping by the new, by appointment only, McTeigue and McClelland showroom located near Rockefeller Center.  I've written about their rings before, and with the holidays (and engagement season) coming up, I thought I'd pay them a visit and get to elegant prom dresses  see their gorgeous jewelry in person, and it more than impressed.
     First, I have to say that the website doesn't do these pieces the justice that they deserve.  Not to say that they aren't lovely in photos, but the quality of the stones, the detail work and the feel of these pieces are amazing.  Not to mention their unique designs.  If I were going for a ring, this would probably be my first stop.  Actually, if Carrie Bradsaw and Mr. Big were to picks out rings, forget Tiffany and forget Cartier- McTeigue and McClelland would be their first stop.  The designs have a expensive prom dresses  vintage flair (many are made with vintage stones) and a unique quality that is anything but common place.  The value to quality ratio is nothing to sneeze at either. And, did I mention, they are UBER nice? I should say that since the company also specializes in Estate pieces, it is a great place to bring a family stone.   Below are some of my favorites that I got to try on….
Even when we did Day of coordination, and I’d known them for two weeks: crying.  I don’t do the ceremony anymore ever because I just sit in the back and cry (Mayra is tough and she handles it).  Well, on Saturday, I cried like, 5 times.  Part of me thought it was  because we were sleep deprived from planning this wedding and handling all the flowers and decor. 
        But then last night, when we wrapped up our day Mayra turned to me and said "I miss J. Monty" and I realized we were just happy that she  had been happy!     I wanted to blog about her because I think job satisfaction and making a difference is something that we all hope for and design prom dresses  want in our lives, right?  I mean, that’s why we started this company.  But sometimes in getting busy, we forget that. But J. Monty really made a difference for me: personally and professionally. She not only reminded me of why I do this, but she helped make me better at it.  We can do BIG with the best of them!  Thank you J.  I dropped some photos in that our decor photographer took.  Orchids, Orchids, Orchids. (I had to stand on a milk crate to create these :-)
