We've Been Blogged!!!!
Happy March, everyone!!!! Couldn't resist this too cute photo we snagged from the amazing Style Me Pretty blog (a daily read at TBR!)....the colors remind us that spring is right around the corner!!!
So exciting when we get a shout out on another blog :) :) There are so many fabulous, creative, hard-working people in the industry we admire so much and we can't lie....it's humbling and thrilling to be among them!
First...from Ashley's Bridal Guide, a wedding directory for Nashville brides....ABG, along with Nashville HER magazine, both feautured Megan + Jerry's wedding because...well, because it was so beautiful and well executed! Breath-taking really!! Long story, but we (sadly!) did not get to do Megan's dress (timing is everything, girls!!!)....but we adopted her as one of "our" brides anyway and she worked with us on her veiling and fantastic jewelry. Her sweet spirit and well-appointed celebration certainly deserves all the attention it's been getting!! Love it all!! She gave us a li'l shout out here, so we thought we'd share the love!!
Then we get this happy little note from friend and photographer Michael Howard .....Maybe you remember our January post about our oh-so fabulous bride Brooke and her cutie hubby Justin? Well they were featured on the very chic new blog Southern Weddings, an extension of Southern Weddings Magazine. To see more details about their sweet day, you really must check this post out!
Hope your month is off to a great start!!

Oscar Fever!
So almost a week later and we are still swooning over Hugh Jackman and his endearing-if-not-embarrassing musical numbers last Sunday night at the Academy Awards.....
In true The Bride Room fashion, we were so anxious to see who wore what on the ever-delicious red carpet......The stars did not disappoint and much to our delight, we saw a few lovely Hollywood ladies in our very own and very dear Monique Lhuillier!
Let's be clear....we would have loved for Sean Penn to maybe even acknowledge his wife in his acceptance speech .... but seriously, we forgot all about it when we saw how fabulous she was looking ;)
And Anne Hathaway had the distinct pleasure of joining Mr. Jackman on stage for the opening number (PS: who knew she could sing!?!?!)....and we knew it was a Lhuillier the moment she hopped on stage....
So fun, right?!?! These gorgeous gowns make us very excited for what we will see at market in FIVE WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :)

New Bridesmaids....
So excited to share with you three new pieces from the Amsale Bridesmaids collection.....We fell in love at Market last fall, and quickly scooped up these pieces with fabulous wearability and ruffle details....
Then came this too cute ad campaign and we knew we were done! Love them all!!
These three styles landed in store last week, and we are expecting more....stay tuned!!!
(note: the one-shouldered ruffle dress is in store in the short version, not long as pictured above....so cute!!)

Happy NY Fashion Week! Er...we mean President's Day!
Leave it to us to take a national federal holiday and geek out over the way it ties into...well, what really matters of course....Wedding Day Fashion :) :) :)
Our very own Priscilla of Boston had the pleasure of creating the timeless looks for the brides Nixon as well as Luci Johnson.....
[Fun facts.....Priscilla Kidder (THE Priscilla of Boston!) personally escorted Tricia Nixon's wedding dress to the White House, with an armed escort of secret service agents. A first class seat was purchased for the dress to ensure it's safe journey. The story of the gown and the Priscilla of BostonTM company was a featured cover story in Life magazine in 1971.]
See.....Priscilla's collections truly transcend time and remain classic...
Luci Johnson (1966):
Tricia Nixon (1971)
Julie Nixon (1968):
I think we can take the politics out of it altogether and agree that these brides were gorgeous!!!
Have a great President's Day!!!! :)
