Wedding Gowns Have Their Oscar Moment?

At the Oscars, Penelope Cruz couldn't have looked lovelier in her vintage (60 year-old) Pierre Balmain gown. But, pardon the suggestion, doesn't it look suspiciously like a wedding gown?

I suspect a few bridal gown designers will be incorporating the lavish detailing of this gown into next seasons designs. Red carpet or white aisle runner, she looked great.

...he's here!!!




good morning and happy monday!! well, my baby boy, bradley is now 2 weeks old and i feel about 60 years old--needless to say, it's a little draining taking care of a 16 month old and a new born :) and my husband and i are pretty tired, but on friday had some pictures taken of our new addition! though it was quite the experience to get everyone focused and situated according to "plan", mindy from mindy strauss life photography did a wonderful job! not only is she such a good friend, her photography is also so beautiful. so here is a peak of bradley and even a picture of me and my husband, tyler...i think this is the first time i have shown my face... :)

DIANNE & PAUL ANNIVERSARY

One year ago today we had the pleasure of working with a lovely couple, Dianne & Paul on their wedding at Jonahs, Whale Beach. We would love to share some of their wedding images with you and congratulate them on their 1st wedding anniversary & the recent birth of their son, Jett.




Bride to Be featured the couple in November 2008. Susie French from French Flair Events did a stunning job at bringing every element of the wedding day together with colour and theme.



Di wore a a stunning down by Pallas Bridal draped in silk satin with a white metallic organza overlay. The bustline was draped in silk georgette and detailed with hand-appliqued french lace and beading.



Four bridesmaids wore silver Morrissey knee-length silk dresses with crystals and beaded detail around the neckline. The men wore suits by Oxford. Jonahs was the perfect backdrop for the balmy February wedding. The ceremony took place on the clifftop overlooking Whale Beach.






Vanda Orchids featured throughout the styling & traditional Polynesian dancers performed at the ceremony. White Designs captured all the amazing footage on film throughout the day.



The brides bouquet was designed as a teardrop of pink throat phalaenopsis. The couples intimate photo shoot took place on nearby Palm Beach.

The all white tables were decorated with bamboo net runners scattered with more orchids.




And as the sun disappeared for the evening across the ocean candlelight took centre stage with heartfelt speeches and their first dance as husband and wife in front of family & friends.





Congrats to Di & Paul and thank you for choosing SugarLove & White to cover your special day. Visit our SugarLove buzz page to read all about what Di & Paul thought of our coverage on their wedding day.
