I think we can all learn something from the professionals of the past. With three marriages under her belt Marilyn had become a professional bride herself. Her three marriages were all short lived but her happy wedding day moments live on in these frames.

maid of honor? wondering how to make the bride’s toss bouquet?

WHAT you will need: all bridal shower and/or couples shower bows from gifts, one cardboard toilet paper roll,

& paper flowers for FLAIR

tie a double bow at the top of each ribbon

for each pre-made ribbon tie it to a free straight ribbon and give it a tail

now, all of your ribbons and bows have tails

gather all of the ribbons together with bows at the top

almost there, it’s coming together so nicely!

at the base where all the bows have been collected tie a good, tight knot!

tie another knot about four inches below

feed the knot through the tp roll and pull all the ribbon tails through

fasten another color of ribbon at the top of the roll and wrap the roll until it is covered completely

trim up all of your ribbon tails and snip the end of each to make a beautifully manicured

add the finishing paper flower flair…and

VOILA!!

 With all the craze of Fifty Shades of Grey, I thought it appropriate to post a sample of boudoir photography. Elizabeth Messina and Je T’aime keep it classy with these lovely images of beautiful bodies. Keep in mind… a boudoir session could be the perfect gift for your beau.
