Just for Swingers

Outdoor weddings are all about the beautiful scenery.  A decorated swing can enhance setting and you can make it yourself.  Then personalize it with the colorful fabrics, streamers, flowers, or even keeping it plain, all your guests will get a kick out of being swingers for a day. Below a video from DIY Network Romantic Embellished Swing.

Bridal Plasty

Bridal Plasty

I bet you thought Bridezilla was as low as Reality TV could go and then the bottom dropped.  When I heard about Bridal Plasty, I was more appalled than intrigued.  Brides-to-be compete in challenges to earn plastic-surgery procedures in a quest to win their ultimate dream wedding.  Whaaaaaaaaaaat!!! this sounds as absurd as The Swan, an ugly duckling goes through major plastic surgery to compete in a beauty pageant (umm...isn't that the beauty pageant industry?).  That show was a new low for 2004-2005.

Then I realized my nose was getting too far out of joint.  There are lots of procedures that women will go through to better themselves for the big day.  Some procedures are a simple doctors visit and require no anesthesia.

Botox: It's not what you think.  Some women suffer severe sweating issues and Botox can control the symtoms by blocking the chemical signals from nerves that stimulate sweat glands.  Read more here.

Dental: I was at a wedding and the guy who caught the garter looked like Jack-O-lantern.  Ok this is a big dental procedure, but many women will have their teeth whitened  (a diy take home type or dental office visit) or  have their smiles improved by straightning the teeth.

Weight Loss: I think every bride has said this to me, they are working out to tighten this, that, or what ever.  One bride didn't want me to measure her until she had lost 30lbs.  She stopped eating rice and bread.  She was successful in loosing the lbs and looked great on her wedding day.  

Another bride I had did go under the knife for liposuction.  Although this was severe, she had the figure she wanted on her special day. It's not for everyone but it was a good option for her.

Lasik: If you wear glasses all the time, there are few photos of beautiful brides with glasses in the bridal magazines.  They want their wedding day photo's to be perfect (read more about The Lasik Procedure).  This procedure will last several years and can be life changing for eye glass wearers.

Contact Lens:  Lasik's isn't for everyone, but for those who don't want photos with squinting will opt for Disposable Contact Lens.   A non permanent solution those pesky specs.

Silicone Breasts: In the fashion industry we call them chicken cutlets, because that's what they feel like.  When brides want to look more boob-a-licious, without the surgery this accessories can enhance a wedding look perfectly.


Bridal Plasty sounded crazy at first but after thinking about it brides go through some level of augmentation.  Just remember he fell in love with YOU, and loves you just the way you are.

Include This In Your Plans

If you are planning a wedding you are so caught up in the euphoric spiral that you forget to plan your life.  I found this on Twitter and I think it is soooo appropriate for couples.   Getting yourself organized and creating an open space for each other will be nourishing.

Techno What!

I have found this techno thingy and so I have loaded my blog up to it and stuff happens. Hey I'm a Techy, hope that's cool!
