cerronering Leap Year Proposals

Ring from Cerrone Jewellery

Although I love the idea of the male OR female proposing, today is the day (or if you want to be even more traditional- the year!) that females are ‘allowed’ to ask their boys to marry them!

So did any girl you know propose today?

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Henri Josef Sneak Peek Part Two!

Filed under: Bridal Fashion · Posted by: Polkadot Bride at 10:34 am

It’s time for another sneak peak of the new Henri Josef range designed by Henry Weinreich (Roth) Michelle Roth and their parents. Check out the last sneak peak first!

The deep autumn hues of this gown won me over- from the creamy gold of the dress the the rich brown sash, perfect warm colours for a winter wedding.

The red sash on this gown is just gorgeous. Coupled with the delicate red embroidery the bold sash shows off the waist but drapes beautifully down the back of the dress.

This is one of my favourites! I love the neckline and the skirt and think it could work for so many weddings. I’d love to see this with a bunch of white peonies tied with black satin ribbon

I think this dress is really unusual- sure its bright and makes quite a statement! I think this gown would be fabulous in a bright sunset wedding filled with bright summer colours and fresh sparkling cocktails! Or maybe an autumn wedding with bouquets of autumn leaves or the soft grays of eucalyptus leaves.

You can check out Henry and Michelle talking about how to make your wedding day style really ‘wow’ on their latest Planet Bride podcast!
