Breast Dress Project: Open for Business

Before any big event, one needs a dress rehearsal.

Through the support of countless women in the community, we were able to secure over 50 wedding dresses and we're finally ready for our 'dress rehearsal'- or more accurately...your dress rehearsal.

Marry Me Productions along with Groovy Linen will be hosting 'soirees' (at Groovy Linen), allowing brides-to-be an opportunity to try on the beautiful dresses in stock.

The soirees will be held April 1, April 20, May 11 and May 25. You can try on the dresses by appointment only, to ensure clients have the attention they deserve. Appointments will be available from 7-8pm and 8-9pm.

To book your appointment, head to The Breast Dress website http://www.thebreastdressproject.ca/ and click on "the dresses" link (to see which dresses you want to be introduced to) and click on "book an appointment TRY IT ON".

All the proceeds from the sale of the dresses will be donated to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. For more information, please visit http://www.thebreastdressproject.ca/ or view our informational video on You Tube; http://tiny.cc/1d6ec

Join the Breast Dress Project Facebook Fan page and follow us on Twitter (links to both on the website) for more up to date news.

Pink Ribbon Wedding Favors - In Favor Of Cure

What would we do without photographs and memories of our joyful occasions and those who mean the most to us?
Remembering is just what Kate Aspen has in mind with our In Favor of a Cure™ Pink Ribbon Collection. The Pink Ribbon Frosted-Glass Photo Frame/Place Card Holder is one of three favors designed to inspire hope for the future and, at the same time, to honor the survivors—and the memory—of those who have been touched by breast cancer.
Kate Aspen dedicates 10% of the net proceeds from these exquisitely expressive favors to benefit the breast cancer research.

Breast self-exam takes 10 minutes and can save your life. When breast cancer is found early, it's easier to treat and cure. Click Here to arm yourself with knowledge of how to do a breast self-exam. You can do it!

The following dancing performance vividly depicts the feeling of despair, struggle, fight and hope of breast cancer survivors. Every time I watch it, I can hardly hold back my tears.

“When you choose hope, anything is possible.”

Did You Love Molly's Wedding Dress ?

We're assuming you saw Molly and Bachelor Jason's on-air wedding this month on ABC. We absolutely adored her $45,000 strapless Monique L'huillier gown. If the price isn't in your wedding day budget, we have some good news. We have found one very similar at the McCaffrey Haute Couture Flagship Boutique here in Ottawa.

It's the "Surreal" model (aptly named) from their newly released "Illumination" line that we recently blogged about. When we spoke with our contact at the McCaffrey flagship boutique, she told us that brides-to-be have fallen in love with it elsewhere too. When it was featured at the NYC trunk show, it was ordered by 7 Manhattan brides in one weekend.



You can pair the dress with layered diamond necklaces like Molly did, or keep it simple and draw the attention upwards with an almost-sheer cathedral length veil and very simple jewerly.

Visit McCaffrey Haute Couture at 465 Sussex Street or visit the dress on the McCaffrey Haute Couture Fan Page:

Calling all Shoe-a-holics

We know how difficult it can be to find that perfect wedding day shoe. You may find the right colour, but it's not the right size. You may find the right colour and size but it's not the exact toe style you wanted.

We have your solution! Well, we found the website that has your solution. Why not design your own shoe. Now, we are not talking about ordering a shoe online and having it dyed to your perfect colour. We are talking about designing the shoe from the heel height, to the colour to the style to the fabric. And the good news is the company is Canadian so no outrageous shipping fees.

Think about shoes for you, your bridesmaids or even sexy honeymoon shoes.

They are also good gifts for your groomsmen. By adding a couple of more bucks, you can have them engraved to make the one-of-a-kind present you're after. Below are some gift ideas for your special man and closest friends.

Church Wedding Decoration Ideas

A traditional church wedding is the dream of many wedding couples, but decorating a church can present a few challenges. Churches are used for many functions and sometimes have special rules for wedding ceremonies. Speak with the church’s pastor early to be aware of what you can do and what you can not. Below are a few examples of little touches that can make your wedding ceremony at church look elegant, classic and sacred.
Pull bows and tulle are a simple yet elegant addition that can be used to decorate the ends of the church pews. You may drape tulle across the ends of the pews and add fresh flowers for a little punch of style. Hung at the end of the pew, these baskets are filled with little organza bags containing individual portions of wedding rice. You can place more floral at the edges of staircases or entrance ways. If the church is new and more generic looking, you can place large bouquets of flowers near the altar to help frame the bride and groom.






Aisle runners are used to draw attention to the passage the bride will take. Scatter with real or silk flower petals to make a beautiful statement.

You know there will be tears of joy so be ready with a package of tissues for family and friends.
For church wedding favors, check out our baptism and communion favors and heart and love wedding favors.


Here is a quick and easy way to add a splash of beauty to chairs and tables at a rehearsal dinner or wedding reception. Plastic table covers and skirts are water repellent and are very practical for use outdoors or in. Makes clean up a snap and are available in white or ivory.
