POSH PEACOCKS

February 18, 2012 at 11:02 pm | the dish | No comment

As strange as it sounds, lately, we are obsessed with everything peacock! We can’t get enough! Thankfully there are so many crafty folks out there with the same obsession that we were able to quench our lust for this playful and vibrant feather phenomenon!

One of our favorite hairpieces by Sara Gabriel is her Izzy hairpin shown below…adorable! Check out these cute variations we found on etsy.com made with real peacock feathers! Handmade invitations, hair pins, boutonnieres, shoe decor, necklaces, the options are endless. And don’t worry ladies, no peacocks were harmed in the making of these fun accessories. The feathers are cruelty-free as they are naturally molted by wild peacocks and then gathered for use by the crafters. Enjoy!

TOP TEN 2011

December 31, 2011 at 9:41 pm | the dish | No comment

With 2011 coming to a close, we thought it would be fun to revisit some of our favorite events from the past year. Here is just a small list of some of the moments we wanted to remember:

When we decided to do our first annual gown giveaway last January, we knew it was going to be fun, but we had no idea how much fun it would be! Our winner Jodi, still stops by the shop on occasion just to say hi and thank us for giving her the opportunity to win her dress! We think we had just as much fun, if not more, calling Jodi to let her know the good news! Here’s a pic of the gorgeous Mrs. Jodi on her wedding day!

How could we forget our simply todiefor photo shoot with Steve Stanton Photography. We are still trying to get over the breathtaking elegance captured on this shoot, showcasing some of our absolute fave Tara Keely gowns! This one may just be our favorite photo shoot of all time.

Here is Emily, our bride who came in to be a model-for-a-day! After she ordered her dress, we called her up and invited her to leave her day job and join us for a photo shoot showcasing some of our newest gowns for 2011! We had a blast working with Laura Murray Photography, and our gorgeous La Sposa gowns! Emily ordered a La Sposa gown, but we can’t tell you which one! You will be able to see her actual wedding photos soon, but you can bet she will be just as gorgeous in her own gown. Thanks Emily!!

The fave photo of a Tara Keely gown, taken by Kelli Hunt Photography at Estes Park. This photo really showcases the gorgeous backdrop that Colorado brides are so lucky to have! Not to mention, we still can’t get over how cute that little umbrella is!

We were so honored to be included in the first issue of Aspen Bride Magazine! Here is just a peek, but you can read the rest of the article in the “buzz” section of our website. Photo by adam & imthiaz photography.

A stunning fall-inspired weekend photo shoot, with the talented duo adam & imthiaz photography!

Meeting our favorite new designer for 2012 was definitely a moment to remember. Here is a picture from bridal fashion week when we met Miss Hayley Paige for the first time during the unveiling of her collection! We are so proud to be the exclusive retailer for Hayley Paige in Colorado. We had so much fun when she joined us in Denver for our first Hayley Paige trunk show, and we can’t wait until she can come back again for future shows! We love you Hayley!!!

Best photo shoot by an intern! This styled photo shoot was organized from top to bottom by our lovely intern Alex, and boy were we sad to see her go…come back Alex! Alex is back in Oklahoma now working as a buyer, but luckily we still have these photo shoot memories!

Each season they have new designs including our favorite not-too-literal wispy flowers, completely original birdcage veils, and almost unlimited customization options. It’s no wonder our gorgeous brides have made this designer a best-seller, and we have even more options on the way for the coming season. The amazing gals at Bride’s Head have even designed some custom pieces specifically for Blue Bridal to coordinate with some of our most fabulous bridal gowns. Alex, the designer from BHR will be coming to our boutique in November to unveil (hehe we couldn’t resist,) their brand new collection while helping our brides choose the perfect accessories to compliment their bridal gown. And, because we love you, we are also offering 10% off any Bride’s Head Revisited design to celebrate Alex being in town November 19th & 20th!

Bridal belts and sashes have been around for a few seasons now, but the styles just keep getting better! Sashes can be sewn directly on bridal gowns and worn for both the ceremony and the reception, or just tied on for the reception for a completely different look! We have sashes for every budget and every style, here are a few of our favorites this season!
