Nuptials are made over New rings by the Newlyweds who are happily wed and sometimes a little Nutty after planning.

Hey Polka Dot! More great tips for wedding gown shopping!! I love the “high collar” and the “Queene Anne”! Your “ABC’S are so much fun to read!!
As a wedding photographer who has seen many body types in many dresses, I have to disagree with strapless dresses being ideal for girls with large busts. Generally these girls (and I am one, so I can vouch for it) have a little too much going on upstairs to be held up without some sort of strap, and the dress tends to sag and get dangerously low. Most well-endowed girls spend the whole day pulling the top of their dress up over and over, which is very unattractive. I think the square neckline with thin straps is much better suited, as it gives the look of strapless with the support of straps.
Wow beautiful set. The photos were taken with such style and capturing the moment just right.
Love the alfabet check list!
