Runway: Francesca's Bridal at the Tremont Grand

Keeping with our theme of runway blog posts we thought we would show you some of the gorgeous dresses from Francesca's Bridal! Her shop is located off BelAir Road in Baltimore! When Francesca asked us (Caitlin, Leann, Sara and Dana) to do the hair and makeup for her models, we were pumped! The event was held at the Tremont Grand and these images by Photography by Alexander show off the detailed designs. The models were a pleasure to work with and we enjoyed meeting Mrs. Heather Ziehl, Miss Maryland America.

Some of our favorite people from Francesca's Bridal!

The Venting Bride: Veils

Whether you decide to do a church or beach wedding, every bride at least thinks about wearing a veil. Little did I know that there are so many types of veils! Do you want a birdcage, cathedral length, shoulder length or a blusher (the part of the veil that goes over your face)? It is always a good idea to at least try a few on and see what type you like.

If you are getting married on the beach and worried about the wind blowing your veil all over the place, distracting you from the ceremony, then get veil weights! Yes, they are weights that you add to your veil to keep your lace or tulle veil in place.

Take a look at these classy ladies on their wedding day...

Audrey Hepburn

Jackie O

So what type will you wear?

Feature: Cinderella A Fairy Tale Wedding

Wow! The last two days have been a whirlwind and we couldn't be more excited to share what we've been up to. Together an amazing group of event pros (all are listed at the bottom), Wedding411 On Demand and Brides Against Breast Cancer put on a spectacular runway event. All of the proceeds raised were donated to the nationwide charity. We couldn't have been more proud of our own team to donate their time and tools to this worthy cause. Enjoy!

The Castle at Maryvale, a perfect setting for Cinderella to walk the catwalk.

We were delighted to spend both evenings helping Miss Maryland Joanna Guy prep for her Cinderella debut!

Each guest had the option to purchase a glass of champagne. With each purchase they had a chance to win a real diamond!

With back to back nights, our team rotated in and out of the library as we prepped over 15 models. A huge thanks to our UP-DO'S FOR I DO'S team who shared their talents!
