"Say Yes to the Dress" star Randy Fenoli was in town recently for an appearance at the Grand Wedding Expo at Rhodes on the Pawtuxet, in Cranston. We caught up with the wedding gown expert (a former fashion director at New York's Kleinfeld Bridal salon) to talk tips and trends -- and find out what it's like to advise thousands of brides.
Q: For many women, a lot of anxiety comes up around choosing the perfect dress. Any advice on ways to reduce it?
A: It is difficult because the bride wants everybody to love the dress. She wants her mother's approval. She wants her dad to be proud of her. She wants to look sexy enough for her fiancé. She wants her friends to love it and she wants something that's going to make her look good, too.
Just remember when you were single and never thought that you would find a guy. It's the same thing. Eventually you will find a dress that makes you feel beautiful.mermaid chiffon one shoulder wedding dress I've yet to have a bride walk down the aisle naked. Trying on wedding dresses should be fun. If not, go elope. Why all the pressure and the stress? It's your choice.
Q: What trends are you seeing right now in bridal fashion?
A: This past season, designers came out with a lot more straps and sleeves and interesting backs. I think they're thinking about what brides are asking for. They want to make sure the dress looks good from all angles.Asymmetric neckline dress
But the real trend is that brides can look any way they want. They can be bohemian, they can be regal, fun and funky or sexy. There are enough designers and gowns out there that you can find just about anything.
Q: What are the biggest mistakes women make when shopping for bridal gowns?
A: The number one mistake is not preparing for your appointment. Beforehand, decide how much you want to spend. Define your story and your theme. Start going through magazines or go online and find examples of what you like. A picture says a thousand words; most brides have never done this before so they have a hard time finding the words. My book, "It's All About the Dress," also guides you though the process.
And you're probably bringing people with you to the appointment. You need to tell them how you want them to behave beforehand. Tell them, I'm sensitive about my hips, so don't say that dress makes them look wide. I'd also ask them to hold off on comments before they've heard what you think about the dress.
Q: On your show "Randy to the Rescue," you travel around the country helping women select wedding gowns. Do you see regional differences in the dress styles women choose?
A: Yes, and it's very interesting. You go to Denver and all the women want a very natural-granola, laidback wedding. And then you go to Texas and they want to wear cowboy boots. Then you go to San Francisco and everybody wants to get married on the beach. I also find that the more expensive the city, the more people make, the more they understand fashion and the more they're willing to spend on a dress.
Q: You meet a lot of brides, both at events and on your shows. What questions do you get asked most frequently?
A: I do and I love working with brides. They're not bridezillas, they just want to look beautiful on their wedding day. I'm probably a therapist more than anything else. It's about finding out what they're most anxious about and removing that from the equation.
It's funny, no matter what bridal show I do, there's always at least one bride that come to me and says, if you could put me in any dress, which one would it be? I think no, no, no, it's not what I want, it's what you want. Well, honey, do you like beading? What's your venue? How much do you want to spend? There are so many variables.
They help brides and grooms navigate the sometimes confusing and overwhelming world of wedding planning.
They are wedding planners, and whether they help the bride and groom from the beginning or just for the rehearsal and ceremony, they make the process of putting together a wedding less stressful.
Connie Amos-Parsons, owner of At Your Service Events Planner in Forest, is a professional bridal consultant with the Association of Bridal Consultants.
She said as a wedding planner, she helps the bride and groom work out a budget, provides a wealth of resources to help pick a venue and vendors, can go with the bride to interview vendors, gives advice on wedding etiquette and on handling special family situations, helps with the timeline, helps the couple save money and helps with coordination on the wedding day.
She can take the couple from the early planning stages through the end of the reception, she said.
Amos-Parsons recommends that couples start planning a wedding nine months to a year prior to the selected date.
The groom’s level of participation varies with each couple, but most attend the first consultation with the wedding planner, she said.
During that consultation, she asks questions about the style and theme the couple wants. She also asks what their dream wedding is.
After that, often it is the bride and her mother or the maid of honor that attend to the details of the wedding planning.La Femme dress
Amos-Parsons said it’s important to do a few things up front: pick a venue, line up a photographer and book a caterer and cake baker. Those items need to be booked in advance, and they take up about one-third of the budget.
She said she knows about different venues in the area and so can help the couple find one that fits their budget.
Flowers are also an important part of the ceremony, but five to six months is enough time to get that part of the wedding planned, she said.
For the bridal dresses, she refers brides to bridal salons in the area.
She said a wedding can be planned more quickly, but it makes the whole process more stressful.
She tries to make the process easier. She can talk with vendors and make arrangements, which saves the bride, who may be working or going to school, time and effort.
She said she also prides herself on helping the couple save money. She helps them find do-it-yourself projects that help keep the spending lower.
Amos-Parsons also recommends brides go online to get ideas and inspiration. Some of the sites she suggested are Pinterest, Etsy and The Knot.
When asked about trends, she said she recently went to a bridal show, and last year’s colors,Pick-up gown tangerine and fuchsia, are still popular. Other popular colors include blue, yellow and emerald green.
The vintage look is in, she said. Some brides are going to antique stores and finding things to use for decorations. Also,one shoulder wedding dresses modern dresses might be paired with hairpin brooches.
Amos-Parsons can be reached at her business at 434-525-1805.
Lynchburg’s Ashley Willis studied events planning for a while in college, and she interned with Amos-Parsons.
Willis is the wife of Zach Willis and the daughter-in-law of the Rev. Brady Willis, minister at New Prospect Baptist Church in Hurt.
She and Zach Willis got married last October in a wedding at City Stadium. She said it was a baseball wedding, a fall wedding and was a very relaxed event.
One thing that she asks couples before the wedding is what type of wedding they want, formal or less formal. Her role is to make sure what they want happens, she said.
Not only was he her dad, he was also her business partner.Rina di Montella 1520 Clare had helped her parents – Tom and Brenda Faulkner – and sister, Karen,off shoulder dress set up the shop in November 1992 when she was still studying fashion design at college as a 16-year-old.
But when Tom died almost 15 years ago, aged just 52, Clare used her grief to motivate her to make the Broadway business a success.
The 36-year-old said: “Dad dying was the only time when I thought the business might fail. We were a real team and it didn't feel right without him being around – all the girls who worked in the shop loved him.
“But I also felt extra determined to make it work to honour him and we haven't looked back.Beautiful The Latest Wedding Dresses I know numerous bridal shops that have gone bust recently. My mum is always there, never takes a day off and is a credit to him.”
Bell'Amoré had a party to celebrate their 20th anniversary last November and Clare, who was born in Barnehurst and has lived in the area all her life, admits she did not think the business would have been as successful as it has been.
It offers a full range of services, including kitting out grooms, bridesmaids and supplying accessories.
She said a lot of the success they have achieved has been down to word of mouth and recommendations,Hot dress which saves a lot on advertising.
“It's amazing to think we're now getting daughters and nieces of brides we served 20 years ago coming into buy wedding dresses.
“We try to give excellent customer service so customers tell their family and friends about us and it snowballs from there.”
Many of the 13 members of staff have been with Bell'Amoré since the beginning, including shop manager Joanna Brown, who lives in Bexleyheath.Rina di Montella 1512
She said: “We haven't really noticed a lull in the past few years. People are always going to get married and at the moment we're normally booked up for fittings three or four weeks in advance.
“Having a stall in the Bluewater Show probably helps as it helps us meet more local customers who are more likely to make an appointment as opposed to the central London equivalents.”
Clare says the past 20 years have not been without their challenges, most notably the economic problems the high street has experienced in the past few years and the growth of the internet.
This is because people can shop from the comfort of their own living room and it has caused Bell'Amoré to adapt the way it operates and develop its own website.
But Clare, who is married to three-time Olympic medal winner Steve Backley, said some things never change.
“While the average age of brides has generally gone up people are still willing to shell out for a nice dress – because for the bride especially, it will be one of the best days of her life and she'll only want to do it once.
“We also always see a few more people come in to look around after Valentine's Day. Romance is still alive.”
A FORMER pre-school teaching assistant has written a bucket list after receiving the heartbreaking news that her bone cancer is terminal.
Stephanie Knight, 21, has endured a horrendous battle since she was diagnosed with Ewings Sarcoma in 2009, including having her right leg and part of her pelvis removed.
She has had three rounds of chemotherapy off shoulder dress and is currently in Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridgeshire for treatment for the extreme pain she is experiencing.
Steph, of Uplands, Braughing, has been raising money for the Teenage Cancer Trust charity since 2009 and has helped raise more than 40,000.
Her wish is that her fund can be transformed into a charity so donations can help others in her position.
Activities on her bucket list include going on holiday dessy bridesmaid dresses with all 16 members of her family, meeting celebrities Amanda Holden and Simon Cowell, skydiving, completing her childcare qualifications and trying on wedding dresses.
Steph hopes to tick off one of the activities Junior Bridesmaid Dresses on her list this weekend by taking a trip to Manchester to watch Plan B perform.
Her sister Racheal Cross, 31, said: "Initially we were told the cancer had returned to her amputated stump and chest and lung area.

"It was an awful day but Steph is determined not to let it get the best of her and to enjoy the time she has left.Beautiful Sheath Wedding Dresses"
Racheal added: "Steph has been in agony so we are really hoping this weekend can go ahead.

Earlier this month, Danielle injured her ankle while attempting a layup against Oakdale and has been unable to play since.
Her mother, Robin Medovich, is especially happy that Danielle will be queen because having to take a break from basketball was upsetting her daughter.
"I was really happy for her," Robin Medovich said. "She's had a run of bad luck on the basketball court."

What is it with Texas legislators and dancing? I guess they just like to get their boogie on, y'all. We all remember Tom DeLay's unintentionally hilarious turn on Dancing with the Stars. Now, there is Texas state Senator Carlos Uresti from San Antonio dancing with his bride, the former Margaret Lleanna Elizondo, at their wedding in Boerne last June. The YouTube clip of their first dance set to "More Than a Woman" and "I'm Glad You Came" has been causing a stir. The wedding, which Nside San Antonio said had a theme of, "glamour, glitz, elegance, romance and 'The Godfather,'" (?) can also be seen as part of a "TV show" that is really just an inexpensively made advertising vehicle for wedding vendors. The video features interviews and shots from their wedding preparation and ceremony mixed with annoying commercials from flower shops and catering companies.
But, the real star here is the YouTube clip (see below). There are so many things worth noting about it. Here are five.
5. Despite the look of it, they are not that different in age.
I'll be honest, I thought the two of them were quite far apart in age. Some of that may be the quality of the video, obviously shot from a cell phone, and some may just be the fact that Margaret Uresti looks very young, but the truth is he is 49 and she is 37. Granted, she looks like his daughter in the clip, not his wife, but, hey, way to go Senator!
4. There's something about the vest.
Before they start their first dance, the senator unbuttons his vest slyly. At the beginning of song number two, he takes it off and flings it to the side. It's sassy like a Tom DeLay head shake or a Michael Jackson crotch grab. Personally, I would have gotten someone to take the vest from me like James Brown's cape man. If you're going to do it,We just have to gaze at catalogs filled with designer beaded evening gowns dresses! you gotta go all the way.
3. This thing is LONG.
Wedding dances tend to typically be pretty short to keep the party moving, but this thing is nearly five minutes long featuring not one but two songs. There are moments that are uncomfortable to watch, not because the dancing is, um, interesting, but because,Contact formal office dresses for women companies directly to purchase from them. damn, didn't you do that same move like 30 seconds ago?
2. Bride turned showgirl.
The pictures I've found of Margaret Uresti in her bridal gown are lovely, but she clearly incorporated a wardrobe change into this affair because what she is wearing during the dance is not exactly bridal. Not that anyone should complain because she looks freaking fantastic in that sequined, shredded mini dress. But, it is a little off putting when you consider she just walked down the aisle and is probably doing this dance in front of her kids and his grandkids (eep!).
1. The lifts, my God, the lifts.
There were some funky fresh moves going on at the Uresti reception and they are all caught on tape from twirls to dips to struts. Short of break dancing and poppin' and lockin', the Urestis bring the noise and the funk. But nothing...NOTHING compares to the lifts -- yes, I said lifts -- they manage to pull off including one where the senator straps his wife across his body and spins them in a circle. As small as she is, I couldn't help expecting to hear, "MY BACK! MY BACK!" immediately after, but kudos to Carlos Uresti for going Flashdance on everyone and proving he's still got it.

Get Makeup Artist Referrals. "Ask your family, friends and other vendors, especially your photographer, if they have any recommendations.

Be Prepared. "Know how many women in your bridal party need makeup, where you plan on having the makeup applied on the actual day, and when you will need to be ready by. And know what you want — if you want false lashes, is there any additional charge? What the cost is for a trial? Price can vary from artist to artist,Beautiful A-line Wedding Dresses with the range being anywhere from $60 to $120 per person, often with an increased cost for the bride."
Book A Trial. "Come prepared with either magazine clippings of the look you want, or even saved images on your phone/tablet. Take a picture of your finished look with your phone/digital camera. Make sure the artist keeps a record for themselves for the big day! This will also give you an idea on how the makeup will look in photographs. And don’t be shy — be 100 per cent honest about the finished look, if you don’t like it, ask for some adjustments."
Booking The Artist.Our gorgeous faux fur wraps are perfect for wedding. If you're happy with the look, book the artist as soon as possible.

A lot of makeup artists will have bridal contracts ready for you that will specifically state all of the details involved with cost, if there is any deposit required/given, location, timings, number of people, etc. It’s a good idea to have everything written down so that both you and the artist are clear on all the details."
The Big Day. Make sure you keep your artist updated on any changes in timing or location and provide them with a list of contact numbers, especially the maid of honour’s. Have a place setup for the artist to do their work. You will want to take things into consideration like lighting, ample room to work, enough table space and find the tallest chair in your house (i.e. a barstool) ready to get the artist going once they arrive. Lastly, be sure that everyone in your party has their payment ready! No bride needs to see any members of their party scrambling around at the last-minute.What exactly is a Pick-up gown?"

The girls go over and Frankie starts to dance and gets a bit touchy feely with Briella. But that was the only thing that happened.
Tracy takes her bridesmaids to help her find a wedding dress. Gigi is in the wedding party but she's not happy to be there. Gigi wants out of the wedding and plans on telling Tracy some other time.

Tracy tells her bridesmaids that they will be wearing leopard. Gigi is stunned and now she really wants to be out of this affair.
Briella, Michelle, and Jackie are at Olivia's apartment and Olivia tells them that she doesn't trust Gigi. She says that Gigi is supposed to be Tracy's friend but says bad things behind Tracy's back and Olivia suspects that Gigi talks trash about her as well.
That's why she's angry at Gigi, because she thinks that Gigi talks about her behind her back? Any proof? Did anyone tell her that? Olivia said she and Mikey broke up because he was emotionally behind her but here's Olivia acting like a 13-year-old.

Olivia doesn't really understand what Tracy is screaming about and says that she isn't trying to date Frankie and that Gigi was her friend and she wouldn't go out with a friend's ex. Tracy was never her friend so it was okay to date Mikey. But at this moment Mikey is not in either of their lives anymore. Drop it already! Tracy screams that she only wants to protect Gigi. Yeah, everyone believes that.
Back at Olivia's apartment she and Jackie are finishing up with a client when Gigi knocks on the door. Jackie and the client leave and Gigi asks Olivia what is going on. Olivia says that she doesn't trust Gigi because Gigi talks behind Tracy's back and Tracy is supposed to be Gigi's friend.

We've got the deets for you on next week's "Bachelor," fans -- which is taking place over two nights, so you know it's gonna be epic.
First, Sean whisks the ladies off to ..We just have to gaze at catalogs filled with designer beaded evening gowns dresses!. Montana. So, not exactly Prague, but at least it's a change of scenery.
Crazy-wedding-dress Lindsay gets the first date, which takes her to Glacier National Park and a private concert by country singer Sarah Darling. Considering Sean was molar-deep in Lindsay's mouth during last night's show, we like her chances of sticking around.
The group date is quite the rough 'n tumble excursion -- canoeing, wood chopping and goats! There's also a four-on-four competition that involves milk the goats that gives one team more time with Sean and one team heading back to the hotel. But Sean "the Rule Breaker" Lowe changes things up, which upsets the winning team.
The second solo date is ... DUN DUN DUN. A two-on-one featuring Tierra and Jackie. It's a duel for Sean's heart, as Jackie tells Sean what Tierra's really like, while Tierra reveals "a shocking detail about her personal life." Which girl do you suppose gets the rose?
Based on the description of the cocktail party -- "a boiling cauldron of outrage" with "one woman against the rest of the bachelorettes" -- we have to think it's Tierra who sticks around. More the better for us viewers, amirite?
Nine women survive the Rose Ceremony to head on to the Rockies in Colorado. "The Bachelor" airs Monday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
How does forever sound?
Two continents were soon one too many. The couple decided to marry. Since Paulo had to stay with his company for at least two years or pay back the cost of his education, and Lauren's firm has an office in Sao Paulo, she would move.
In Brazil, weddings are a big deal, but proposals in the U.S. sense don't exist. No one wears engagement rings, both because there is no tradition for that, and because wearing any expensive jewelry attracts crime, Lauren said.
No ring was fine with Lauren, but not with her father, Scott. Paulo had called to tell him of the couple's plan to marry. But to Scott, an engagement ring symbolizes a promise, and he did not want his daughter moving to Brazil without one.
Lauren called Paulo in May 2011. "Honey, you have to come to New York and buy a ring."
He did,You will find so many wonderful wedding dress 100%silk with high quality and low price. and they celebrated with Lauren's family.

It was so them
The couple had a traditional Jewish ceremony. For the reading of the Seven Blessings, the rabbi read first in Hebrew, followed by someone from Lauren's family in English, and then one from Paulo's family in Portuguese.
"It was very beautiful," Paulo said.
Many of the couple's 150 guests traveled from Brazil, and the groom stayed out until 4 a.m. the day of the wedding celebrating with them.
That party revved up again at the wedding reception, where guests were served caipirinhas, a Brazilian drink, and danced to a 10-piece samba band with huge drums, whistles, and tambourines.
