Fashion Monday: Teri Jon Mother of the Bride Dresses

mother of the groom and mother of the bride dress ideas and inspiration

One of the hardest gowns to find for most weddings isn’t just the wedding dress.  The mother of the bride dress is just as important as the bridesmaids dresses and sets the tone for the mother of the groom’s dress. These gowns need not be frumpy, plain or drab.  While they should over power the bride’s gown, she also shouldn’t blend in with the bridesmaids.  It’s an important day for her– your mom deserves to look and feel her best, too!

Teri Jon offers some beautiful options for the 2014 wedding season for the mother of the bride and mother of the groom.  They range from classic and elegant to sleek and sophisticated.  These gowns are absolutely stunning statement pieces that can be worn to other weddings (depending upon the style, color and formality of the event) or other formal events.

13 Knock ‘Em Dead Dapper Boutonnieres

Tradition has typically called for the groom’s boutonniere to be a bloom “plucked” right from the bride’s bouquet. The sentiment of that tradition is great, but here are some other inspirational designs to add to your consideration:

Having your best friends in your bridal party is the greatest gif they can give you.

Bridesmaid dresses they can wear again– the best gift you can give to them.

Durga Kali has new patent-pending designs that not only allow your bridesmaids to wear their dresses again, but they get to wear an entirely different dress!  The dresses are made of high quality silk, and can be altered and customize in many different ways.  Named for the Hindu goddess, representing her peaceful and powerful sides, the fashion line is the perfect reflection of those varying personalities. These bridesmaids dresses are the perfect investment to add to their wardrobe.

We Likey: Samuel Adams’ Brewlywed Ale

Sam Adams Brewlywed Ale for Weddings

 

Your hunny just got a whole lot more excited about wedding planning.

No matter where your wedding is, more likely than not, beer is going to play a big role in your wedding.  Well, for the guys, anyway. Having a broad, quality selection is like the guy’s version of the wedding cake.  Leave it to Jim Koch of Samuel Adams to come up with something totally awesome (he actually brewed the first batch of Samuel Adams Noble Pils for his daughter’s wedding day).  Let me tell you how awesome Jim is– at a recent Brewlywed Ale tasting at the Samuel Adams Brewery, he served as best man to adventurous couples who got married at the Brewery!

 

Brewlywed Ale is described as a distinct and complex brew with a layer of flavors including fruit and honeysuckle notes from the Belgian yeast, as well as the sweetness from malt and a citrus character from hops.

For all you beer heads out there, here’s the specs:

 

Samuel Adams Brewlywed Ale, Brewers’ tasting notes:

·         This traditional Belgian-style bride ale combines the tropical, floral aromas of Stella and Summer hops with subtle hints of spice.

·         Its light malt character and soft hop profile impart an upfront fruity taste followed by lingering notes of clove and honeysuckle from Belgian yeast. The Belgian yeast also imparts distinct flavors of spicy clove and tropical fruit character.

·         At 8% ABV, Samuel Adams Brewlywed Ale is a medium bodied brew, deep golden in color with a slight unfiltered haze.

·         This special brew finishes a little crisp from the wheat, with a citrus and fruity note on the palate and lingering hop finish.

·         We recommend serving this beer at a temperature of 40-45° and enjoying it before your one-year anniversary.

·         Samuel Adams Brewlywed Ale will be packaged in decorated 750mL, cork-finished bottles; and available for $14.99 per bottle, or purchased by the case of 12 (maximum of 3 cases per purchase).
