Florist in Lufkin TX

I have been curious as to what local choices there are for florists and very excited to find out some of them actually have bridal bouquets, bridesmaid's bouquets, & boutonnieres posted online. Some also have different arrangements for ceremonies & receptions. Here are two websites of local florist (Lufkin). I'm also sure that a visit with the florist could help create a unique look if that's what you want!

Bridesmaid Dresses!

This post is about picking out bridesmaid dresses. You have lots of options out there, but its so confusing sometimes! If your maids are scattered all over the country it makes a decision even more difficult. I almost gave up and went to David's Bridal because they have them all over the country, but couldn't bring myself to do it! I like that store, but I LOVE fashion even more, so I decided to find something online that I liked. Going into a store and picking out dresses is much easier, but don't knock the online brides maids choices. High end designers will design dresses that are affordable, and that have great style. I am going to highlight the Vera Wang website today because this is who I decided to use, and its actually not that difficult. I am dealing with a sales person from the NYC store, and she is helping me get all the measurements and getting the order via email. Then she ships the dresses to the girls & they get them altered after that. Really its not so bad! They also only require a portion of the total sale to do the initial ordering, so it's kinda like a payment plan! Check out the ONLINE BRIDESMAID on the right for other online brides maids styles.

Here are some of Vera Wang's colors and choices!









Below are some of my maids choices and my maid of honor. I chose grey, and different dresses.

Bridal Fairs

It's about to be 2010, and one month closer to your wedding date!! Eeeek! Jump start your research by going to a bridal fair! Its basically just like a blog but you get to meet all your vendors. In my experience face to face contact is always the best. In East Texas we have big bridal fairs that run in January. So I suggest you get over there because firstly you need to research and secondly they give away lots of stuff! I can vouch for that because I just finished editing a free session I gave away.

Below is your local bridal fair information.
