Thursday Tidbits

Hello to all of our Coquettish fans out there! We wanted to drop in and say that we haven’t forgotten about you!! Our events have been ramping up and since our clients are our #1 priority, we’ve been focusing on them. The NY half of Coquette is on her way back to the Bay.

We’ve got a wedding this weekend at the fabulous Auberge du Soleil where we’ll be working with some of the best Bay Area Wedding Vendors. Be sure to check back for a full recap. A Big 30th birthday bash is also in the works … wonder what the theme will be as two friends ring in a new decade together! Also, be sure to check back next week for our full recap of a special 1st birthday party Coquette planned.

Until then, we wanted to leave you with a few interesting tidbits …

– White House Black Market received such positive feedback and customer interest in their initial bridal line, that they’ve expanded their collection and are now featuring 4 different wedding gowns. Each is unique and beautiful in its own way and an added plus, the dresses are very affordable. The gowns range in price from $398 to $698. We love the Victoria, shown here. It features a sweetheart neckline, a pleated bodice and a sexy modern mermaid skirt. They’ve also expanded their selection of Bridesmaid dresses and accessories. You can see the full collection at their Wedding Boutique.

– — Women’s Day writes about the five stages of marriage and how to get through them successfully.

– What do you get when you have Katie Holmes and her co-stars in the upcoming movie The Romantics plus cupcakes plus JCrew’s new fall line?? A fabulously fun photo shoot! Check it out here. We’re loving the sequins – what a fun way to add some flare to your outfit.

— How adorable would your little Ring Bearer look in these bow ties? Babybystevie makes these ready to wear seersucker ties for infants, toddlers and boys of all ages. Want something in a different pattern? Visit BabybyStevie’s Etsy store to see her full collection of accessories for boys.
