To Veil or Not To Veil, That Is The Question!

 I've got the hair blues something fierce right now.  I haven't dyed my hair since the summer because I conquered fear of water, my bigger fear of breathing and being underwater, and my biggest fear of wearing a swimsuit in public and I learned how to swim (sloppily and let's be real, ungracefully) well enough to get me from point A to point B. BUT, my hair is definitely NOT loving the chlorine so I don't want to further stress it out by colouring it.  And, being vainglorious, I won't wear a swimming cap because I'm ridiculous and don't want to chance looking like an egghead. So instead, I've been living my hair dreams vicariously through my good friend, the Internet.  I've been drinking in all things hair on my iPad: hair colours, mermaid hair, hair styles, silver hair, short hair, celebrity hair, any hair, really.  The good news is, in the middle of my current hair obsession, I found a great post about brides rocking some short-but-seriously-sweet hair at their weddings!

One of our upcoming weddings this year will feature a very cool first for us here at Limitless: our bride is going sans veil.  She is leaning towards a fascinator, so sourcing out the possibilities will be a fun undertaking! I think that fascinators are amazing because there are soooooo many options and possibilities; they can be intricate, bold, romantic, simple, elegant, fantastical and everything in-between.

The ladies of The Social show fascinators done right! Like snowflakes, no two are remotely the same!

But beyond the fascinator, there are other non-veil options like headbands, tiaras, crowns, and floral embellishments.   Because I've got headpieces on my mind, it seemed like a fitting time to share a Huffington Post that featured these wedding day alternatives:

Last summer, The Social's fashion guru Erica Wark had a fabulous collection of wedding accessories and she featured some great headpieces, including a gorgeous floral headband that Lainey modelled - and I drooled over! I've shared the link before but it's informative - and inspirational enough - to warrant a second look!

Hot Wedding Accessories for the Season!

This past weekend, on a scorching Saturday in May  (goodbye winter and hello HUMIDEX WATCH 2015!) with the threat of insane weather looming in the not-so-distant skies (seriously, at one point there was a ‘severe thunderstorm watch’ in effect, which also ominously called for heavy rains, strong winds and possible hail)  Limitless Events welcomed in the Spring wedding season - congrats Jann and Nick! You guys not only survived the heat and foreboding weather forecast but were a lovely couple who hosted a fantastic wedding for your family and friends! All the best today, tomorrow, and always…..

Last week on The Social,  resident fashion expert (and soon-to-be Bride) Erica Wark had a great segment on some smokin’-hot wedding accessories for the upcoming season and I was remiss in not posting them right away because they are definitely swoon-worthy!

Must-have Wedding Accessories!

Maybe  because it’s been such a long, dreary winter and spring has reared her beautiful and promising head, but I found everything so fresh and inviting.  Delicate, drape-y, bohemian-inspired headpieces? Yes, please!  A decadent fascinator-esque bloom that can be perched jauntily? Amazing!! Art-deco inspired clutches? We’re in!!!

Speaking of smokin’-hot – what about the men?  A man in a good suit is a beautiful thing but just what constitutes a ‘good suit’ changes with the seasons and just as bridal and wedding guest attire is continually offering new options and looks, men’s wedding day fashion is updating all the time too! Here was a segment on The Social a few weeks ago that showed the newest in new looks for men:

Stylish wedding-day fashion for men...

And things are just heating up! Wedding season is on and with that, we’re in for a fashionable, exciting ride! Make sure you visit us often and if you’ve got some wedding festivities lined up in the next little while - smile and BREATHE! You’re almost there and it’s going to be just fine!  Enjoy the lead-up to your special day!!

Wishing you a day as limitless as you are~
