My 1920 flapper wedding

These are awesome!  We used them for my friends beach wedding and they were absolutely divine.  They come in red and black for the guys and pink and white for the girls.  When u walk in the sand they leave behind the wording just married printed in the sand.  These were also so divine for the photos.  And divine to go on beach destination honeymones!!!

Here’s something I got for all the guys in the bridal party and they were so well received!

They come in….

Groom- Groomsman - Best man - Father of the bride - Father of the groom  and they are presented in a beautiful stylish mini top hat.  I thought this was a fabulous idea for presents as it was something used on the day instead of being put away in the cupboard.

Bridal Survival Kit  - A convenient collection of Emergency Essentials for the blushing bride..

Say “I Do” to disaster relief with the Wedding Day Survival Kit.   Aspirin - Band-Aid - Chalk for stains - Clear Nail Polish - Cotton Wool - Dental FlossGlitter Body Lotion - Mints - Mirror - Nail file - Pearl earings - Perfume - Safety Pins - Mini Sewing Kit - StrawTissues - Handcuffs - and u can add your own stuff too - to make it more personal.

The Heritage Market will once again host its 13th annual Bridal Fair sponsored by Alpine VW Pinetown. This year’s event promises to be bigger and better than ever with not only great exhibitors but great entertainment too…for the whole family. 

This year’s theme will be Roses & Rust celebrating the beauty of rustic silhouettes and The Heritage Market’s trademark flower.

The exhibition and all activities will take place in the basement parking which will be transformed into the exhibition hall. Entrance is free! Friday 23rd May will kick off at 6.30pm with the annual Miss Heritage & Miss Teen Heritage 2008 with the MC for the evening being Damon Beard from East Coast Radio. A percentage of the money raised for this event will be donated to The Sunflower Fund. Saturday 24th & Sunday 25th May will showcase the Bridal exhibitors from 9am – 4pm with Dave Guselli and Damon Beard of East Coast Radio as the hosts for the day respectively.

There will be 2 Bridal Fashion Shows throughout both days at 11am and 2pm showcasing bridal wear from the designers. A Bridal-Couple-To-Be competition will be held throughout May and during the Fair. The winning couple will be announced after the final fashion show around 3pm Sunday 25th May. Loads of spot prizes are to be won during the weekend. The SA Cake Decorators Guild will also be displaying their designs along with sponsors Lindt chocolates.

So come join us for a weekend to celebrate (and organize) the happiest day in a bridal couple’s life! For more information contact Cindy at The Heritage Market management office on 031 765 2500

When I was planning my wedding I bought a whole heap of magazines, which turned out to be girls wearing wedding dresses which looked like there were made from freshly plucked ostriches and had hair-do’s that reminded me of a birds nest. Yes, there were a few nice pictures but to be honest there were no suppliers that were relevent to me, here in sunny Durbs. I find that most mags really cater for you big spenders in Jo’burg.

So when I came across this little (but getting bigger every year) gem I thought I had died and gone to supplier heaven….
