Lace Wedding Dress Biography
Source:-(Google.com.pk)
Originally founded in Barcelona as a lace shop in 1922, Pronovias has expanded into a wedding dress empire across the globe. In 1964, the family-run store began selling custom made bridal gowns, and by 1968 the small shop had become the first bridal salon in Spain.
Today, Pronovias still works as a family-run business, though their clientele spans the entire world. In addition to their gowns being available in 130 shops in Spain, more than 4,000 stores in 72 countries carry Pronovias wedding gowns. The brand utilizes a team of 70 designers and artists who work together to create the elegant, detailed gowns Pronovias is known for, and each year multiple collections are released to the general public. On average, Pronovias produces more than 650 different gown and party dress styles annually.
Pronovias’ gowns are far from plain or ordinary. Each of their creations are exceptionally detailed and feature beautiful embroidery, crisp lace, billowing skirts and form-fitting silhouettes. From sleek mermaid style gowns to elegant, sweeping ball gowns, Pronovias offers gowns for brides of all shapes, sizes and personalities. All of their gowns are also customizable, as the company offers a wide variety of fabrics and upgrades that brides can choose to add to their dress upon purchase.
In addition to creating stunning wedding gowns, Pronovias sells an entire line of bridal accessories, including purses, shoes and gloves, among others. The Pronovias design team create over 2,000 new accessories each year, with new items being offered seasonally as new collections are launched.
If you’re a vintage lover like I am, or a fan of anything “lace” related, then you’ll adore these soft and charming photos of vintage lace dresses from the talented London based photographer Rebecca Lindon. In her bio she states that, “I strive to capture portraits that are flooded with light and love.” After taking at look at these photos, all I can say is…mission accomplished.
I’ve always had an obsession with lace, in particular how it used within bridal designs. A age-old piece of lave makes my heart sing! This shoot was put together to showcase the best of lace whether that be an antique shrug or veil or the intricate use of lace in a modern dress. I scoured London’s vintage shops to find pieces and uncovered two silk dresses that had subtle but exquisite lace trimming for a more relaxed, chic look. They were both under $300. Of course the spectacular modern day dresses were from Ian Stuart Bride who do such dramatic things with lace. The setting was a former traditional English pub that provided fantastic textures and backdrops for this shoot – the wall paper was out of this world (and apparently worth a fortune). The flowers were bought from a local supermarket after our florist didn’t work out and the make-up artist worked her magic on those.
We’ve all seen the movie, The Wedding Planner starring Jennifer Lopez and for those of us that are wedding planners, we know most of that movie was pure fantasy….but we love it just the same. As the lines of traditional planning evolve, I think it’s important for brides and grooms to understand some key terms which we will be exploring in the coming weeks. Let’s begin with understanding the difference between a Wedding Planner and a Venue Manager…
Your wedding planner is your advocate and team mate for the long haul. If you’ve hired a full service planner, they will guide you from beginning to end of the planning process, assist you in developing and managing a budget, review vendor contracts, assist with invitation selection, food & beverage, create a comprehensive timeline and manage every single solitary vendor you’ll work with to create your dream wedding. If you’ve opted for a month of coordinator, they will review your vendor contracts, create a timeline and manage both your rehearsal and day of wedding as well as attend to the client, outside of the venue.
The venue manager is responsible for the venue and its proprietary functions. They are not going to attend your dress fitting or secure your officiant or run your rehearsal or coordinate Sunday’s brunch.
Your wedding planner and venue manager will work together to manage all aspects of your wedding and the key to this relationship being a success is clear communication. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and be clear about who is handling what when it comes to your wedding.
This week we are visiting one of the most romantic places in the world – Italy. A three-story 18th century farmhouse surrounded by beautiful hills, delicious olive groves, and a restful coast, Casa Olivi is a perfect destination for a honeymoon.
Casa Olivi includes 5 bedrooms designed with a minimalistic theme and elegant decor. The living room, kitchen, and dining room are on the ground floor. Every window features a lovely panoramic view of the surrounding countryside. There are also a variety of things to do in the area, such as wine tasting, boat trips around the coast, and horse-back riding. For those who prefer experiences that go beyond typical tourist attractions, I highly recommend you check this place out and create your own “Roman Holiday.”
