Miss the HER Nashville Bridal Brunch? More Great Wedding Finds

Tuesday, March 9, 2010

I've got more great wedding finds to share from the Her Nashville / Focus bridal show, just in case you missed the event. 

Up first, we have Dynamic Video. They had wonderful set up that showcased their outstanding work. Videography is a great addition to your day because fifteen years later you can look back on it and remember the wonderful details and appreciate your marriage even more.

Then, we have b. Hughes Bridal and Signature Events, two wonderful wedding resources! b. Hughes Bridal displayed their spring collection of bridal gowns. Ruffles, feathers, and flowers are in, as you can see! These styles would look great with vintage and rustic themed weddings. Signature Events has a vibrant personality and was recently featured in Martha Stewart Weddings. You should check them out! They do exceptional things in weddings here in Nashville.

Up next, a catering company called Clean Plate Club. They provided tasty brunch treats in the form of omelets that beautiful morning. They looked and tasted exquisite! So often brides forget that a brunch reception is a great and budget friendly alternative, especially for Sunday weddings. And, really, who doesn't love breakfast?!  Ashley certainly did!  She chowed down on a cheese omelette while I enjoyed a Mimosa.

Bacon and Caviar was another catering company offering up deletable brunch treats. They served smoked salmon patties with a salad. It was delicious! Their drink of choice was fruit tea, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Truth be told, I'm really particular about my tea, too. If you get a chance, try their fruit tea.

Of course, after those brunch treats, you'd need something sweet. At the bridal show, there were two bakeries - The Bake Shoppe and Cupcake Collection. Each had their own kind of yumminess.

The Bake Shoppe featured cakes inspired by the latest in bridal gown trends.  If you missed their series, read about wedding cakes inspired by bridal gowns part 1 and wedding cakes part 2 only on ABG! The Cupcake Collection had some tasty treats as well. My favorites were the sweet potato cupcake, which tasted like spice cake, and the red velvet cupcake. I'm not usually an icing person, but both had deliciously creamy ones.

Music City Events had another great spring tablescape. They used a soft green linen with white accents on the table. The hydrangeas were also a great touch for the spring tablescape. It would look great for a vintage or rustic style wedding, as well.

Wedding 101 looked great as well. It is a great FREE resource for brides in Nashville and the Middle TN area. They had shabby chic decor as well. This is really prevalent in weddings right now. So, if you're looking for a theme, this could be a good one!

Eyecandy Salon is a hot salon that is all about glamour. They are located downtown and have great pricing for all brides! The salon is also planning a bridal extravaganza called Bridal Carnevale. It is planned for April 18th and has a complete facebook page dedicated to the festivities.

Geny's Wedding and Events floored me as soon as I walked upstairs. I don't know if they did it on purpose, but they took the splashes of red in the Noah Liff Opera Center and ran with it. They used one of my favorite color schemes - red and damask - that I think can be used for any season. To brighten it up, they used green, which lightens the darkness of the black and makes it a perfect spring or summer palette.

It was a great bridal show that showcased wonderful wedding resources.  Hope my recap will help you find a few additional ideas or resources for your big day.  Thanks to Kristyn Hogan lifestylye photographer for all photos.

At the age of five, I proclaimed to my mother that I was going to be married at age 20, and I would be marrying my father. From then on, Barbie always married Ken, and they always lived happily ever after. My sister’s recent nuptials and my engagement have “pushed me over the edge” in a way. I’ve realized that I adore weddings and appreciate all the time and effort that goes in to every single one.
