Weather Wedneday

Geez Louise...its a bad weather day today.  Checking the radar off and on all night.  THe wind is loud and scary.....but at least its now daylight.
Our patio umbrella blew away and I found it in my neighbors yard.. INSANE weather!

We hope all our fans and blog readers that live anywhere near this crazy weather stay safe!

We love all of our fans so much and would love to know if there are things in our bridal shop that you would want us to carry?  infinity dresses? etc?

Please, let us know!

Testy Tuesday!


Testy? Thats a word  right?  This morning has started off a bit rough, but none the less, nothing like an email from an impending customer to brighten the day. I'm very excited about a few upcoming possible ventures.
This is always an exciting time at Kalli Alba Bridal Couture.  More and more fabric deliveries start coming in and the fun starts more and more. 

I'm in the process of finishing up a beautiful gown for a Military Ball, and I'm doing a short rendition of the Sunset Bride Gown, but this time around its going to be a short gown (This is exciting).  The name for it is 
Cape Cod Forever Bride. (It's a vow renewal gown).  Nothing makes me happier than making wedding gowns and flower gowns, than getting to make a RENEWAL gown for a couple celebrating milestones during their wedding.

In my own marriage, my husband and I had the joy and honor last summer of having our vows renewed for our Tenth Anniversary.  That's decade. While some times it seems longer, other times it's gone by way to fast!

I'll share some pictures below.  The best part about a Vow Renewal, is you are already married so you do not have to go through the hiring of an official officiant.  In our case, we wanted our children to be involved.
I bought a leather binder type thing and we had a small intimate ceremony script in it.  Our nine year old son, dressed handsomely in khaki colored linen pants and a white linen tshirt, read from it. He acted as our officiant.  Our almost Eight year old and Two year old daughters (whom I refer to as the "littlest boss" and the "little boss" were acting as flower girl/bridesmaid.  I'm not really sure what they were but they were beautiful in their "Alba" style tulle gowns.  Vintage lace topped the bodice over a champagne beige satin.
I wore a new design made to out of the Champagne beige and Vintage Lace, called the "Beautiful Beach Bride" gown.  My gown had a vintage lace cathedral style train draped in the back.  My husband wore the exact same thing as our son!  We had a wonderful time.
All the flowers, bouquet, hair accessories, wrist corsages, boutonniere were made by Fancy Feet Flip Flop

A blurry pic

This is not the best pic of this dress...and hardly any details can be seen..but this is made with a little heavier material than I would make for a flower girl dress.......
but you can change it up and make it a cute suumer or spring dress too.
This particular dress has wide lace that criss crosses in the back..  

 



It sort of reminds me of a flapper dress, without all the additional ruffles layers!

Friday!

What a great start to Friday.  The older two kids school was delayed a couple of hours because of ice on the roads, which means we all were able to sleep a couple extra hours.
The littlest boss, slept good as well and is still currently asleep.  Hopefully this means, that they will all have a good day today.

Tonight I will be able to get some pictures of the newest dress that I have made that, made with a different type of material, would make the SWEETEST flower girl dress.  I can not wait.

Until then, pleases go and visit our new website at Kalli+Alba.  We are now able to do Trunk Shows virtual.  If you are interested in receiving half price or free items, just hold a trunk show.  You will get a special link and password for your guest and they can visit the trunk show link and buy.

This is a very exciting time.

Also, please go and check out Fine Mess Designs for all your logo/graphic design needs.

Oh and I can not wait for some upcoming Weddings.. I'm doing a similar remake of the Sunset Bride dress, but only in a shorter fashion. I can not wait for this one to be shown in some pictures.
Its going to be the Cape Cod Forever Bride!


Do you remember the Sunset Bride Dress?  It was worn at Fashion Week Alabama last year. (Summer 2012)
