Fall Head Over Heels Into Wedding Planning!

FALLING IN LOVE: You have a

storybook romance and he pops the question. You begin to plan the day you’ve been dreaming about all your life. All of your wedding fantasies are so close to becoming reality until the wedding headaches cause you to realize that wedding planning isn’t always a piece of cake. You can already picture the fall from grace and the beginnings of the inevitable wedding stresses. {See Smart Fixes on page 27 to help you out.}

FALLING TO PIECES: This is when you lean on your bridesmaids. Make sure you choose the ladies that won’t fall short—these should be friends that will pull you in off the ledge, help to

calm the inner bridezilla and bring you back to down to Earth. Best of all, they help make your experience fun, and provide an ear on everything from the littlest details like napkin color to the location of the rehearsal dinner. They even agree to stand by you when your MOB is falling from favor with her demands on your guest list. {Thank them with the gifts on page 53.}

FALLING IN PLACE: Then it’s time to take your mom to see the dress that you have your heart set on. Your mom then falls out of her chair when she sees you in it. She can’t believe her little girl is all grown up and getting married—everything is falling in place. {Have a look at Runway Report on page 63 for dresses you’ll both go gaga over.} FALL BACK AND RELAX: As the planning winds down, you begin to think about the honeymoon. You and your fiancé book the best room on a lovely beach with plenty of sun and sand, somewhere far, far away from the chaos of wedding planning. The idea of this place helps you make it through the final stretch, making certain you’ve not fallen prey to cold feet and pre-wedding jitters.

Fall is the time of year when many find love, get engaged or have a wedding. Fall is also a verb that is applicable to many aspects of planning a wedding. As exciting as wedding planning is, sometimes, as a bride, you hit a pitfall and wonder what choice to make or question if you made the right one. With the help of Get Married, any little stumble is softened because we are here to help you fall in the right direction through planning every moment of your celebration.

{See destinations perfect for your honeymoon on page 75.} The invitations are in, addressed and mailed; the dress is ordered and your final fitting was flawless; the cake and flowers are arranged; all that is left to do is get married! Go ahead, take the fall…this is the beginning of the rest of your life. You are in the clear and the man you fell in love with is waiting at the end of the aisle.

S

onoma
County
and
North
California
wine
 country
provided
the
perfect
sebng
for
our
 fall
cover
and
Cover
Challenge
with
designer
 Sasha
Souza.
“It’s
a
des?na?on
for
people
wan?ng
to
get
 married
and
have
an
in?mate,
fun
affair,”
says
Sasha.
“It
 is
one
of
the
top
des?na?ons
in
the
world
for
roman?c
 weddings.”
Under
an
arbor
at
Chateau
Felice,
a
private
 estate
on
a
vineyard,
Sasha
set
to
work
on
the
wedding
 table
with
Get
Married’s
box
of
products,
which
included
 an
invita?on,
save
the
date,
escort
cards,
menu
cards,
 reply
card,
leaf
tassel,
leaf
ribbon,
mini
lamp
shades
and
 leaf
magnets. 
 “I
was
inspired
by
the
invita?on,
and
the
fact
that
 it
is
tradi?onal
with
modern
touches,”
Sasha
says.
“I
 thought
we
could
use
vintage
wallpaper
for
the
table
top,
 mixed
with
chandeliers
and
fabric
draping,
and
loads
of
 gorgeous
florals
using
burnt
orange,
cantaloupe,
reds
and
 golds
as
the
color
scheme,
for
a
very
roman?c
look.” 
 Sasha
used
an
eight‐foot‐long
great
table,
also
 known
as
a
King’s
table,
which
creates
conversa?on
at
a
 wedding
because
it’s
only
four‐feet
wide
versus
five
or
six
 feet.
“A
great
table
makes
it
more
in?mate,”
Sasha
notes.

FALL 2010

She
created
a
plywood
box
tabletop
and
covered
it
with
 red
and
gold
wallpaper
before
placing
it
over
a
wood
 table.
“There
isn’t
linen
on
the
table
itself.”
 
 The
fabric
used
on
the
chairs
and
napkins
was
an
 iridescent
taffeta
in
a
merlot
hue,
which
complemented
 the
ma2e
gold
and
cantaloupe
draping
around
the
arbor
 that
further
added
to
the
romance
of
the
setup.
 
 Sasha
wanted
something
with
a
li2le
bit
of
shine
on
 the
table.
She
selected
a
taupe,
iridescent
glass
charger
 from
10
Strawberry
Street
to
give
the
table
sebng
some
 glitz.
She
then
chose
the
glassware
with
jewel
undertones
 to
match,
and
plates
that
had
a
vintage
look
to
?e
in

 the
wallpaper
on
the
table.
For
the
final
touch,
she
chose
 two
totally
different
types
of
silverware.
“Mixing
and
 matching
silverware
is
a
very
trendy
thing
to
do,”
Sasha
 says. 
 Sasha’s
in‐house
Floral
Designer,
Leah
Lowery,
AIFD,
 created
the
stunning
floral
designs.
“Sasha
and
I
start
 with
a
design
board
and
concept
of
colors,
which
usually
 begins
with
the
linens
on
the
table.
She
develops
a
color
 scheme.
Then,
we
choose
the
containers,
which
lend
 themselves
to
all
the
rest
of
these
combina?ons,”

explains.
“And
then
I
go
to
market
and
 just
have
fun
shopping
for
the
flowers!”
 

 It
looks
as
though
Leah
had
a
lot
 of
fun!
“It
is
a
very
eclec?c
mixture
of
 flowers,
materials
and
colors,”
Leah
 says.
“And
I
like
that
we
used
organic
 flowers—it’s
something
that
brides
 request
a
lot
these
days,
as
they
are
 trying
to
be
as
green
and
sustainable
 as
possible.”

 

 Flowers
spilled
out
of
the
 containers,
down
the
center
of
the
 table.
“I
loved
choosing
the
containers
 for
the
flowers
and
crea?ng
a
tabletop
 that
was
not
simply
a
draped
linen,”
 Sasha
says. 
 More
mixing
and
matching
 ensued
with
metal
and
glass
candle
 holders
and
candles
in
shades
of
 bright
aqua
blue,
cantaloupe,
gold
and
 merlot,
enlivening
the
table
further. 
 For
the
cake,
Sasha
advised
the
 baker,
Lisa
Kincaid
of
Fleur
de
Lisa
 Cakes
to
create
three‐dimensional
 flowers
on
two
of
the
?ers.
“It
looks
 more
statuesque
this
way,”
Sasha
says.
 She
incorporated
a
leaf
ribbon
from

16

FALL 2010

her
Get
Married
box
around
the
base
 of
the
cake,
and
gave
it
to
the
baker
to
 use
as
inspira?on
for
the
pa2ern
on
 the
cake
itself.
“The
leaves
?e
in
the
 fall
idea
and
the
pa2ern
on
the
first
 and
third
tier
also
are
reminiscent
of
 the
wallpaper
pattern
on
the
table,”
 Sasha
explains.
 
 Lastly,
the
escort
card
table
 was
a
work
of
art
in
itself.
From
the
 Get
Married
box
of
goodies,
Sasha
 incorporated
magne?c
leaves
as
 an
escort
card
element.
She
hung
 the
escort
cards
from
the
leaves
on
 a
magne?zed
board
covered
in
an
 embroidered
taffeta
fabric.
“It’s
a
fun,
 different
way
to
display
the
cards
and
 good
for
outdoor
weddings
since
they
 can’t
blow
away,”
Sasha
explains.
 
 “I
couldn’t
have
been
happier
 with
the
way
the
table
turned
out—
 from
concept
to
comple?on,
we
had
 such
a
short
amount
of
?me
but
 our
amazing
team
really
pulled
it
all
 together
and
it
was
a
great
experience.
 I
loved
every
minute
of
it.”

IT’S ALL PRESENTATION

in the

Dress up simple small bites with these sneaky tricks By Sharon Naylor

Guests
love
their
appe?zer
nibbles,
oRen
even
more
than
the
main
course.
Dressing
up
those
app
sta?ons
is
 an
art—a
few
crea?ve
presenta?on
twists
and
your
appe?zer
course
will
look
10
?mes
more
expensive.
Styling
 sensa?onal
pla2ers
of
single‐serve
appe?zers
is
the
new,
hot
way
to
make
your
budget‐column
menu
picks
(cheaper
 chicken
and
pasta‐for‐pennies)
look
like
something
out
of
a
Top
Chef
elimina?on
challenge.
And
when
guests
 approach
a
sta?on
and
get
a
trio
of
treats
instead
of
a
single,
?ny
bite
spooned
onto
a
dinner‐sized
plate,
you’ll
 impress.
Keep
the
following
serving‐style
panache
in
mind
for
all
of
your
wedding‐weekend
ac?vi?es.

Platter-y

Work
with
your
caterer
to
choose
colorful,
crea?vely
shaped
appe?zer
 plates
that
please
the
eye,
and
present
your
chosen
menu
items
like
art.
 •
Shape
shiHers.
Select
square
plates
with
more
rounded
edges,
oval
 plates
and
the
new,
soR‐edged
triangular
plates.
Trios
and
mul?ples
 of
apps
need
space
between
them
to
keep
sauces
from
touching
 and
to
create
that
ar?s?c,
high‐end
presenta?on,
so
look
also
at
 elongated
rectangular
plates
and
elongated,
super‐thin
oval
pla2ers. •
Colors
that
pop.
Bring
in
bold,
bright
colors
for
your
single‐serve
 plates.
Hot
colors
are
red
and
cranberry
tones,
persimmon,
deep
 purples
and
browns
as
the
neutral
base,
with
a
swirl
or
pop
of
 turquoise
or
orange
to
bring
in
your
love
of
subtle
pa2ern.

Bring in bold, bright colors for your single-serve plates.

Wallet-friendly Desserts

Guests
will
love
these
easy,
 inexpensive
surprise
bites
that
wrap
 up
your
wedding
menu,
and
won’t
 weigh
them
down
for
dancing!
 1.
Circle‐cut
rounds
of
different
 cheesecake
flavors
like
tradi?onal
 New
York,
maple
and
key
lime.
 2.
Mini
crème
brûlées
in
spoons

 (as
seen
in
the
photo
above). 3.
A
trio
of
candy‐colored
 homemade
gelato
in
?ny
sugar
 cones
filled
with
ground
graham
 cracker
crumbs.

Even
the
most
budget‐friendly
of
ingredients—tomato
soup,
bean
soup,
 corn
purée—can
be
made
into
an
exci?ng
gourmet
serving.
“At
a
recent
 wedding,
we
did
a
tomato
basil
soup
shooter
with
a
cheesy
cros?ni
in
a
 spoon,
a
white
bean
soup
with
duck
served
in
a
spoon,
and
a
corn
purée
 soup
with
crab
and
avocado
salad
in
a
spoon,”
says
Summer
Hutchens,
 CPCE
Professional
Bridal
Consultant
of
Summer
For
Your
Memories
in
 Houston.
So,
think
about
unique
twists
on
easy
favorite
foods—the
price
 stays
low,
but
guests
will
rave
about
the
tasty
comfort
food
treats.

Wearable gifts for your guys.

Upping the ante on grooming.

“Choose
a
really
nice
?e
or
 shirt
that
they
can
wear
to
 your
wedding,
and
later
wear
 to
work
or
another
formal
 affair.
It’s
a
las?ng
giR.”

“Men
want
to
look
their
best
 on
the
wedding
day—it’s
the
 one
?me
that
they
really
have
 to
get
pampered
and
prepared.
 Guy‐focused
grooming
and
 wedding‐day
essen?als
kits
like
 Mojuba
are
great
because
they
 contain
everything
you’d
need
 to
prep
for
the
day.”

Going casual.

Platinum is forever.

“There
is
a
trend
toward
 less‐formal
suits.
Since
 des?na?on
weddings
are
so
 popular,
summer‐weight
suits
 that
can
be
worn
again
are
big.”

“There’s
a
move
away
from
 white
gold
to
pla?num
 wedding
bands—grooms
 are
looking
for
quality
and
 something
that’s
more
durable.
 Pla?num
has
a
lot
of
heR,
is
 longer‐las?ng
and
retains
shine
 significantly
longer.”

make you Smile

Products that perfect your beam for the big day With your wedding quickly approaching, it’s time to kick your “beautifying” routine into high gear. Between the walk down the aisle, the photos and greeting guests, you’ll want to know you look and feel your best. And with all the other items on your bridal “to do” list, worrying about your smile should not be one of them! Here are some simple product solutions coupled with expert advice from celebrity cosmetic dentist Dr. Jeff Golub-Evans (he’s smile-treated some of Hollywood’s loveliest, like Bridget Moynahan and Mary-Louise Parker) to brighten, restore and refresh your smile, just in time for the big day.

If you want to go further and pick an in-office whitening, do it one to two weeks before your big event, and start using Sensodyne toothpaste three to four weeks out to avoid sensitivity to the procedure.

Whitening toothpaste and mouthwash work well as maintenance products. Once professional whitening is completed, using them will help preserve those whitening results.

Whether it’s a drugstore teeth-whitening strip or a professional bleaching gel, it’s the same ingredient, just in different concentrations. Look for strips that contain hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide as the active whitening materials.

Give your lips some love, too.

A world of epic fantasies begin in a sea of lace, dance through a ballroom of crystal and create an air of timeless romance. Weave this into a tapestry of classic silhouettes, and you’re transported to the era of the vintage bride. This season, the runway is alive with all things old, revamped to new and borrowed from historic Cinderellas of years gone by. All you’ll need is a touch of blue! FALL 2010

T

he Look. To match our bride-to-be, Lissette Siancas, with these regal stylings, she was given the Get Married bridal style quiz and scored as “Scarlett,” which means she loves old-Hollywood glam with a touch of romance. (To take your own Get Married bridal style quiz, visit getmarried.com/discover-your-style.) The lace mermaid Lily gown from Alisa Benay fit Lissette to perfection, amplifying the luscious and feminine sophistication of this young-starlet styling. The ruffled sweetheart neckline, opulent French bustle and the lace-up corset breathe life into period characteristics while still maintaining an updated edginess for the modern bride. Atop this chic, eclectic base, embellishments pay tribute to decades past with a hint of drama and nostalgia. A soft birdcage veil with fabric f lower details brings a plush touch of Tinseltown to your ceremony, and impressive jewelry dazzles with elegance. “Pearls are a long-time, special-occasion staple,” says Stylist Carlen Funk. “Amp up your traditional strand with a cameo (like this one from Alisa Benay) or wear multiple rows of pearls in varying shades to give it that truly vintage feel.” The final look: sophisticated jazz club meets sweet, antique belle of the ball. The Makeup. Women with stronger features best carry this vintage look, explains Alyson Hoag, makeup guru and owner of Authentic Beauty, pointing out that Lissette’s big eyes and full lips are an ideal match for these dramatic details. “Either Marilyn Monroe blondes or dark brunettes work best for this look,” she says. “And do not attempt it without a flawless face and even complexion.” While that may seem limiting, if this signature style fits your bill, it’s breathtaking to see all these elements work together.

After your foundation is set, begin your color application with the lips, because it sets the stage and helps ensure you don’t overdo the eyes, Hoag explains. “Start with your lip pencil, dot along the lip line, then trace the dots together, after which you can fill in the entire lip—it makes a perfect lip line every time!” Then, use a lip brush and blend the lip pencil into the lips. Warm up the lipstick with a brush in steady strokes, gathering color onto the bristles. Apply a coat; blot with a tissue and then add a second coat; blot again. For an added glamorous shine, apply lip gloss on top—the stickier the gloss, the better. After your perfect lip is sparkling, fill in the brows using a matching powder, making sure you have a perfectly structured arch. Next, bring your attention to the eyes—keeping the makeup minimal. “You can use the same face powder (or a neutral eye shadow color) on your eyes,” Hoag recommends. “Then you can define it with a bronzer if you want.” To achieve that crave-able, unrivaled lash line to frame your eyes, use an eyeliner sealer product. “Just a drop of this eyeliner sealer with any eye shadow (black typically) makes it into liquid magic! You can apply it with a tiny ‘taklon’ definer brush, and it dries like a powder that you can blend,” Hoag explains. The Hair. This regal hairstyle was selected for Lissette’s look to bring out the soft, classic elements of bridal beauty both old and new. To craft this chic ’do, Daniel Jones, celebrity hairstylist and owner of Muse Salon & Spa, created a low chignon at the base of the neck, giving it a light spritz of L’Oreal Professional Infinium 2 hairspray. Once secured, he took sections of hair, curled them quickly with a large curling iron, and affixed them into the base of the style. To set with a glow and touch of flawless shine, Perfect Shimmer Shine Spray by L’Oreal Professional was applied in a soft sheen. “I wanted a dramatic side-swept bang to enhance this particular look,” Jones says. The result is a clean coiffure that’s fresh and effortlessly timeless, while still setting a trend as an updated creation.

We asked four very different, cutting-edge designers to comment on the latest trends. Here’s what they said.

RANI TOTMAN

PRESIDENT & DESIGNER, ST. PUCCHI

WHAT
HAS
BEEN
YOUR
BIGGEST
INFLUENCE?
 RT:
People
in
general
have
always
been
my
 biggest
influencers.
From
historical
to
modern
 figures,
and
just
groups
of
people
in
general.
 There
is
something
very
beau?ful
about
people
 and
how
they
dress,
act
and
carry
themselves
 in
different
eras—for
example,
in
the
16th
 century,
the
elite
and
aristocra?c
women
 donned
the
corset.
My
2010
collec?ons
include
 a
variety
of
corseted
gowns.
 
 HOW
IS
YOUR
LATEST
COLLECTION
DIFFERENT
 THAN
PREVIOUS
COLLECTIONS? RT:
I
strived
this
season
to
capture
the
fantasy
 and
splendor
of
past
socie?es
and
the
beauty
 of
nature,
culture
and
history
I
saw
throughout
 my
travels.
The
collec?on
includes
a
variety
 of
structured
bodices
with
boning
and
corset
 backs
to
accentuate
the
feminine
form,
a
style
 that
fla2ers
every
figure.
To
balance
this,
I
 have
paired
the
richer
looks
with
airy
and
light
 fabrics,
such
as
silk
dupioni
with
tulle,
lace
with
 silk
organdy
and
duchess
sa?n
with
ricamo
net.
 

 WHAT
IS
THE
BIG
STORY
THIS
SEASON?
 RT:
This
spring
(2011),
there
will
be
an
emphasis
 on
gowns
with
depth
and
dimension
by
using
 crea?ve
fabrics,
jewels,
pearls,
laces
and
color.

LIA MCNAIRY & ANTONIO GUAL

DESIGNERS, MELISSA SWEET & REVERIE BY MELISSA SWEET

WHAT
HAS
BEEN
YOUR
BIGGEST
INFLUENCE?
 AG:
Charles
James,
the
way
he
uses
the
grain
in
 the
fabric
to
sculpt
a
shape.
 LM:
Anne
Cox
Chambers,
ex‐ambassador,

 philanthropist
and
my
ul?mate
style
icon. HOW
IS
YOUR
LATEST
COLLECTION
DIFFERENT
 THAN
PREVIOUS
COLLECTIONS? LM
&
AG:
We
?re
so
easily
of
fashion
and
we
 are
constantly
looking
for
the
new
best
thing
 to
evolve.
Some
favorites
are
Pippa
with
the
 all‐over‐soR
and
dreamy
sequins
and
Tavi,
the
 short
lace
dress
with
the
floral
appliqués.
It
 reminds
me
of
Catherine
Deneuve
and
watching
 French
cinema.
Also,
the
use
of
ostrich
plumes
 was
never
as
rampant.
A
biedermeier
bride
in
an
 exo?c
tropical
island,
such
as
Mira
with
her
hem
 of
plumes,
and
Stella,
which
is
slim
with
a
bustle
 cascading
down
her
train. WHAT
IS
THE
BIG
STORY
THIS
SEASON? LM
&
AG:
The
luxury
of
choice.
We
offer
our
 brides
op?ons
from
ball
gowns
with
yards
and
 yards
of
material
to
a
sliver
of
a
frock.

ANGEL SANCHEZ

PRESIDENT, ANGEL SANCHEZ USA, INC.

WHAT
HAS
BEEN
YOUR
BIGGEST
INFLUENCE?
 AS:
A
na?ve
of
Venezuela,
I
grew
up
in
my
 mother’s
atelier
surrounded
by
dress
forms
 and
fabrics.
Watching
her
sew
with
the
 entrancing
abili?es
in
her
hands
and
her
talent
 and
determina?on
was
my
first
inspira?on
to
 become
a
designer.
 HOW
IS
YOUR
LATEST
COLLECTION
DIFFERENT
 THAN
PREVIOUS
COLLECTIONS? AS:
This
season,
I
used
a
variety
of
lace
and
 embroidered
tulle
along
with
gazar
and
 organza
fabrics
with
delicate
embellishments.
 Well,
let
me
start
off
by
saying
that
I
truly
love
 all
the
pieces
in
this
collec?on,
but
if
I
were
 to
choose
a
few
favorites,
I
would
say,
style:
 N8008
(oyster
silk
maylea
mikado
trumpet
 gown,
with
bands
of
sequin
embroidery
and
 overlay
of
French
net),
N8004
(off‐white
 silk
triplex
gazar
and
tulle
ball
gown
with
 handkerchief
panel
skirt,
accented
with
 crystals
and
organza
petals)
and
N8009
(ivory
 embroidered
tulle
trumpet
gown
with
petal
 appliqué
and
gathered
back).
 WHAT
IS
THE
BIG
STORY
THIS
SEASON?
 AS:
This
season,
the
feel
from
many
designers
 was
very
roman?c
with
the
use
of
organza
and
 embroidered
elements.

At
the
end
of
the
aisle
were
beau?ful
an?que
windows
that
 Cedarwood
had
stored
in
an
old
hay
barn.
“They
had
never
used
them
before
and
I
saw
them
 out
of
the
corner
of
my
eye
and
flipped
out,”
says
Holly.
Old
wooden
pews
from
the
historic
 Ryman
Auditorium
were
brought
out
as
sea?ng
for
the
guests.
2.
Chefworks
catered
the
affair
 and
Dessert
Designs
in
Nashville
served
their
famous
sour
cream
and
chocolate
cake.
3.
The
 florist
at
Cedarwood
incorporated
mixes
of
roses
and
hydrangeas
into
Holly’s
bouquet
and
 on
the
recep?on
tables.
4.
&
5.
Buchanan
Ink
supplied
the
sta?onery.
6.
For
favors,
Holly
and
 Chris
made
CDs
of
songs
they
love
and
then
had
their
favorite
quotes
on
marriage
wri2en
on
 the
back.
7.
The
wedding
took
place
in
a
field
in
the
early
evening
with
