Question from Kate
Hello,
Well, heres my issue, well actually i have lots of them. i will start with, both my fiance and I are military. We just became engaged last month and have decided that since we are having a semi military wedding and we both are in the forces to share our special day with Canada day 09.
We are having a major issue however finding red and white accessories and mainly wedding dresses. We want to have a "Canadian" theme without being gawdy, as it is a formal wedding, as well we are getting married 5000 miles away from here in my home town and have to have all of these things purchased fast as we have about half our bridal party going to Afghanistan this year!
HELP!
Answer from Bridal Expert Angela
Hi Kate,
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding.
There are many bridal stores online that sell wedding dresses. I just attended a Bridal Show that showcased red bridesmaid dresses from Stella’s Bridal for this season. They were very beautiful. They have a wide selection of dresses (wedding and bridesmaid), and are a Canadian company.
As for wedding decorations, you have a variety of choices. There are a number of very tasteful maple leaf wedding favours which can play up the Canadian theme without being over the top. The Ceremony and Reception Decorations link will take you to a page where you can shop by theme, or by colour (many red items) among other search criteria. By following the Wedding Theme Collections link, you will find the Discerning Camouflage Collection which has some lovely items.
I wish you well in your wedding planning, and if you have any other questions, please feel free to email me.
