"Will You Marry Me"?... that phrase is what we all wait to hear from the man we love


It's that time of year when couples all over the world are reminded of how in love they are. It's that time of the year when couples decide they want to spend the holidays next year as a family. It's that time of the year when men go ring shopping, when women make the house a home and when men get down on one knee and ask those four magical words, "Will You Marry Me"? 
Then we break down and cry and scream YES! 

We all have waited a long time to find that somebody special. Some of us have waited and waited and waited some more for him to finally ask. For me it was the most exciting day of my life and it is for millions of other women around me. Even though we haven't set a date a year later I do know one thing.. I have dreamed about my dress and planned the entire wedding in my head. :) There is nowhere else I would go for my wedding gown then Provence BRIDE by Allyson Simone 



Being surrounded by dresses it is hard to choose which one I want! So I know you being a newly engaged bride will find the perfect dress here at Provence Bride


Now that you're engaged it's time to find your perfect dress at Provence BRIDE...

xoxo Sara

Provence BRIDE is now carrying exquisite designer bags by Cady Briar!

It all started during summer 2005 when I moved the 3,000 miles to Southern California from Rhode Island. Inspired by my indie entrepreneur roommate I started creating small handbags (which are now hidden deep in my closet for no one to see!). It truly was an organic process, slowly developing my craft while building a clientele and trying to find a niche in the handbag market.

In 2007 I discovered Etsy, (yay!) Is this for real? A place where I could sell my products to people who are looking to purchase handmade? It was so easy! Might as well give it a try... and so I did, since then my business has grown and changed and I have found myself creating custom handbags for the bridal market. Now how come I didn't think of this sooner? I've always been fascinated by weddings and I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of the Wedding Industry.

I love what I do and am excited for what the future has in store for Cady Briar. Stay tuned!

Jennifer J Designs....Our Vendor of the Week!


She does it all!!!!!!!!

With a backround in Interior Design, Jennifer Johnson has combined her Design skills along with her Event Planning experience to create the ultimate wedding experience.

Planning a wedding can be an extremely stressful undertaking for someone without the knowledge, expertise, or professional guidance of a Wedding Coordinator. We understand the importance of ensuring a successful and memorable event.
Jennifer Johnson Designs offers comprehensive packages as well as 'day of service' for Brides & Grooms in need of professional assistance. We can coordinate and manage every aspect of your WEDDING or EVENT from beginning to end or simply refine the details the day of.


Planning your wedding should be an enjoyable and exciting experience. A wedding is one of the most important days in a man and womans life. It can also be one of the most stressful. It does not have to be. We can greatly reduce stress throughout your planning process and on your wedding day. We guide our couples graciously throughout the planning process from innovative concept to flawless execution. We help our Brides and Grooms to never lose sight of the real reason for the wedding celebration. It is a celebration of your love. It is a time to share with your closest family and friends, taking in each moment into your memory to treasure forever. It is not a time to feel stressed or unhappy running around trying to tend to the myriad of details that need to be taken care of. Relax and let us handle the details.

No two weddings are exactly alike, but intimate or grand the one thing they do have in common is that they are special. We help you to design a one of a kind, beautiful wedding that reflects your own personal style and is as unique as the two of you. To acheive this we offer three Levels of Service. We strongly feel that there are essential services that every couple needs to ensure a flawless wedding day. We include these essential services in all our Levels of Services. Then, together, we will evaluate your specific needs, expectations and budget so that we have a clear understanding of your vision. We will work with you to choose and customize the best Level of Service to suit your individual needs. We want you both to feel comfortable and satisfied.

Congratulations!
We look forward to meeting both of you very soon. Here are some of the many things we can do for you so that you both can RELAX and enjoy your special day.
