If you want to have a worry-free wedding, planning is key. This is where the ladies from Simply Love Studio come in. This one-stop wedding resource center, which has a planning area, design department, and library of industry books and magazines, offers brides-to-be “a no-cost, relaxed setting where they can plan their wedding.” Owner Rayna and Studio Manager LeAnn guide brides through the entire process from creating a timeline to choosing the perfect honeymoon destination and everything in between. When asked what advice she would give brides about their special day, Rayna, who also owns Always Planned event planning firm, offered, “Take a deep breath. Remember why you’re there. It is ultimately about the marriage, not the party.” Both women also agreed that it was important to employ professionals to do the work so “your guests can be guests and really enjoy the celebration, instead of having a to-do list.”

Here at Simply Love, we have recently stumbled upon one of the coolest wedding etiquette resources! Lets be honest, wedding etiquette is often a touchy issue! On top of that, it seems that very few people are truly knowledgeable in this field. This book gives you all of the information you need to plan wonderfully elegant and classy wedding parties ranging from engagement parties, to bridal showers, to receptions! This book comes from the fabulous Emily Post who is America’s etiquette icon. It is actually written by Anna Post, the great-great granddaughter of Emily Post. Over the next few weeks, Simply Love will be featuring some of our favorite ideas and suggestions from the book. In the meantime, check it out yourself at emilypost.com/wedding-parties

Wedding gowns are becoming more and more practical! I am a very practical girl myself so when I came across this awesome idea, I fell in love with it!  I actually came upon this new trend by accident.  When trying on gowns for my June wedding , I stumbled upon a dress that I absolutley adored. It wasnt until I put it on that I realized the pockets were there! The ease and conveniece of the pockets was so helpful on my wedding day. Pockets are such a neat idea for brides because it offers them the ability to carry necessities with them for those last minute touch ups.  Included below is a list of items to be stowed away in those nifty pockets for emergencies on your big day, along with some pictures of my personal favorite pocket gowns. Happy Wedding Planning!
