Selecting the Perfect Bouquet to Complement Your Dress!

The hard part is over - you've found the perfect wedding dress at Angelus Bridal. Now you need to think about ideas for a bouquet that will complement the dress and tie in with your wedding theme. The best wedding dress store in Pompano Beach, FL has some suggestions on different styles to consider when selecting a bouquet that will pair beautifully with your gown.

Here are some of the different types of bouquet styles:

Arm Sheath Bouquet

This style is designed to rest on the bride's forearm. Traditionally, this style includes long-stemmed flowers, such as irises, sunflowers, or calla lilies. This style of bouquet is great for many reasons. They can be kept fresh in a vase prior to the ceremony and are generally budget-friendly because it doesn't require a large number of flowers. These bouquets look great with a streamlined or simple A-line wedding dresses.

Cascade Bouquet

This bouquet is designed with an abundance of overflowing flowers cascading down in a loose style. The cascade bouquet is the perfect statement accessory that can add liveliness to simple elegant gowns. This is a great solution for including exotic flowers into your florals. Traditionally, this choice is paired with long-length, formal dresses, such as the ballgown style.

Composite Bouquet

This bouquet is constructed of hundreds of petals wired together to look like one enormous flower. It's simplistic in design, but graceful and elegant. This style is dramatic and distinctive and works well with silk flowers for those who wish to preserve their bouquet for years to come. The Composite bouquet looks best with an elegant and simple dress, and is the perfect choice for a vintage style.

Biedermeier Bouquet

The Biedermeier bouquet consists of a dense cluster of blooms carefully arranged in circular patterns of different colored flowers. Each of these rings contain a single type of flower. The great thing about this style is that due to the tight structure in which they are created, they're generally pretty resilient bouquets and less likely to lose shape. This is a good choice for formal ceremonies, and make for easy photography since they look great from any angle.

Posy Bouquet

The Posy bouquet is composed of a bunch of flowers arranged to create a slightly domed shape. This is a great choice if you don't want your dress and flowers to compete against each other. It can be scaled down in size to create complementary bridesmaid's bouquets, making it a very versatile choice. The Posy bouquet is also less fragile than other styles of bouquets so it's easier to set down without risking ruining it. This choice pairs well with extravagant dresses due to the simplicity of the bouquet.

With this helpful list from South Florida's most trusted bridal salon, you'll be on your way to selecting the perfect bouquet to complement your dream wedding dress. Weddings aren’t just regular dates. They are special and you want to make sure that every second you spend on getting everything for that date is done right. If you haven't yet picked out your dress, or your bridal party's attire, you're in good hands with the best bridal consultants in Florida. Our bridal consultants are trained to listen to you and understand your needs.

Gorgeous New Year's Eve Dress Styles To Ring In 2017

It's almost time to ring in another new year, so that means it's time to find the perfect party dress to wear to your New Year's Eve celebration. You will find the best special occasion dresses in South Florida right here in Pompano Beach. With the large variety of colors, styles, and affordable prices ranges at Angelus Bridal & Formals, you are bound to find something spectacular to wear!

The party gown that you choose will greatly depend on your own personality and personal style. The way that you want to look and feel on New Year's Eve will play a big part in the dress you end up wearing. Here are a few popular looks to help you decide.

CLASSIC
Many women choose to go with the always perfect "little black dress," but many others prefer to throw in a splash of fun color to usher in a new year. Angelus Bridal & Formals can definitley help you, no matter which look you want to wear this year. Depending on the formality of the party you will be attending, we have a wonderful assortment of floor length, cocktail length, and short gowns for you to choose from.

FUN & FLIRTY
For the woman that wants to kick up her heels, dance the night away, and have all eyes on her, a fun and flirty party dress is just the thing. One way to go is short and sweet, showing off your gorgeous legs and a fantastic pair of shoes. Another option is to stick with a longer style of gown, but pick one with plenty of sparkle and "twirl-ability" on the dance floor.

GLAMOROUS
This look is also an excellent way to have all eyes on you. A long evening gown in either a dark, glamorous shade or a shiny, metallic tone is a very festive way to celebrate the coming year. You will look as if you just stepped straight off of a red carpet and right into the party.

Don't forget to add a few fabulous accessories to your New Year's Eve party look too. Amazing shoes are always a must, even if you wear a long gown. Your toes are sure to peek out at some point, plus, who doesn't love getting a gorgeous new pair of shoes! A small handbag is ideal, large enough to carry the essentials yet small enough to not draw attention away from your spectacular dress. As for jewelry, go bold with a simpler gown, and if your dress is a showpiece of its own, keep the jewelry a little more understated.

Our South Florida special occasion dress store is here to make sure you find exactly what you are looking for. During your shopping appointment, our knowledgable consultants will take your fashion wants and needs and guide you toward the perfect party dress. Visit Angelus Bridal & Formals soon. We can't wait to dress you up!

20 Tips For a Smoother Wedding Experience

Over the years, our South Florida wedding dress store has met many brides and grooms. They have had some wonderful tips and tricks for getting through the wedding planning experience easily. A few learned these things through mistakes that were made. Angelus Bridal & Formals would like to share a few of these wedding hacks with you so that you don't run into the same problems.

PLANNING STAGE

Keep pen & paper, or your digital version of those, handy at all times. You never know when inspiration may strike.
Open a wedding email account. Give this address out for all wedding-related correspondence. That way, it's all in one place and won't get mixed up with your everyday emails. You can also close the account after the wedding and skip marketing emails you no longer need.
Use a wet sponge or glue stick to seal invitation envelopes. You will avoid paper cuts and that disgusting glue taste.
Write your thank you notes as soon as gifts arrive so that you don't have as many to write after the wedding. Also, place a sticker with the giver's name on each gift until you write the thank you in case the card gets misplaced.
At least once a week, do something with your spouse that allows no wedding talk at all. This will keep you both connected and fresh for future planning.

FASHION TIPS

First and foremost, make an appointment to try on wedding gowns. This will guarantee that you aren't waiting around for a dressing room behind a line of other women. You get the undivided attention of a consultant when you have an appointment.
It's fun to stand in front of the big mirror and admire those wedding gowns that you are trying on, but don't forget to move around in them too. Walk, sit, dance, and whatever else you will be doing on the big day. Looking good is important, but being comfortable is too.
Wear your wedding day shoes around the house before the wedding. You will want them to be broken in before you wear them all day at the big event. Have a comfortable backup pair ready too, just in case.
Stash a piece of white chalk in your emergency kit. It can hide stains on a white dress.
Get your engagement ring professionally cleaned before the ceremony. It will sparkle and shine in all of your wedding photos.

BEFORE THE CEREMONY

EAT! Too many brides and grooms get busy getting ready and forget to eat, which leads to a tired, hungry couple halfway through the day. Keep it light, but get something in your stomach for the energy you need. It's wise to keep a few snacks handy too, for a quick pick-me-up until dinner is served.
Drinking straws are the perfect way for a bride and her bridesmaids to stay hydrated without smudging that gorgeous lipstick.
Ladies, wear a robe or button-up shirt while getting your hair and makeup done. You won't have to worry about pulling a shirt over your head and messing up your look.
Appoint someone, like the maid of honor and best man, to be in charge of the bride & groom's phones for the day. You will be busy enjoying the experience. They can field any calls you may receive and be in charge of the selfies.
Do not pick up your own bouquet directly out of the vase. It will be wet and drip all over your dress. Have someone else pick it up, dry it off, and hand it to you.

FOR THE RECEPTION

Give the DJ a list of songs to definitely play and another list of songs that should never be heard at any point during the night.
If a speech goes too long or gets embarrassing, cue the DJ to cut the microphone.
Ask the caterer to set aside a plate for the two of you. Occasionally, couples get busy enjoying the reception and greeting guests, and they miss out on the best food. Setting some aside assures that you get to eat what you paid for.
Prepare a quiet, out-of-the-way spot for the two of you to sneak away to during the reception. A few minutes alone during all of the excitement is a wonderful and special treat.
Put someone that you trust in charge of taking the wedding gifts and cards to a safe place after everyone arrives at the reception. You never know who may wander through the area besides your guests.

Hopefully you can use some or all of these tips to make your own wedding run as seamlessly as possible. All of us here at the best bridal salon in Pompano Beach are partial to the fashion tips, but we can attest to the fact that all of the ideas above will be very helpful to every bride and groom. The bridal consultants at Angelus Bridal & Formals love using our experience and knowledge to help make every couple's journey as easy as possible.

Stunning Fashions to Ring in the New Year

A New Year's Eve party is the perfect excuse to go searching for something fabulous to wear. The best special occasion dress store in South Florida has an incredible variety of styles to choose from. No matter what your personal style is, we have something perfect for you at Angelus Bridal & Formals.

CLASSIC

No lady's closet can have too many little black dresses. They seem to be the perfect look for nearly any occasion. You can add a little bling with jewelry or a belt, or switch it up a bit and choose a black dress with an accent color. Black also looks fantastic amidst New Year's Eve confetti and streamers.

FUN & FLIRTY

If you want to dance the night away and have all eyes on you, go for a bold color or a flirty 2-piece ensemble. Another amazing look is a sheer, floor-length skirt with a short little number underneath. A bit of flare to the skirt looks incredible on the dance floor.

GLAMOROUS

This look is still a wonderful way to be the center of attention. An evening gown with some shimmer to the fabric is a very festive way to celebrate the new year. A full, flowing skirt in a bold color is a very dramatic way to show up at a celebration. You will look like you stepped off of a red carpet and right into the party.

If you are attending an event with music, make sure that you pick out shoes that are not only fabulous, but that you can both stand and dance in for hours. A handbag small enough to not draw attention away from your dress but large enough to carry your basic essentials will be needed. As for jewelry, if your evening gown is made up of a shimmery fabric, you can probably tone down your accessories. If your dress is a little more understated or a solid color, pick out something shiny. After all, New Year's Eve is all about ringing in a new year full of possibilities with a great big bang.

The most beautiful special occasion dresses in Pompano Beach are waiting for you. Give Angelus Bridal & Formals a call and make an appointment to try on a few of our exquisite dresses. We look forward to getting to know you better when you come in so that we can point you in the direction of the perfect dress for both your style and personality.

5 Things To Do With Your Bridal Gown After the Wedding

Once you find your dream wedding dress at the best bridal gown store in South Florida, you will be counting down the days until you get to walk down the aisle in it. You have been meticulously taking care of it up until that day, but what do you do with it after your wedding? Once you get back from that honeymoon, it's time to make a decision. Here are a few ideas from Angelus Bridal & Formals that may help you out.

Get the wedding dress professionally cleaned.

First of all, do not wait too long to get your wedding dress cleaned. Oils from your body and anything else that may have gotten on it could permanently stain the material if not taken care of quickly. Bridal gowns are very delicate, and attempting to clean one yourself could damage the dress beyond repair. Your best bet is to take it to a dry cleaner. Find a professional that has experience with handling these types of dresses and knows exactly how to clean them to keep then looking like new.

Once you get it back home from the cleaners, do not keep it in the plastic bag, and don't leave it on the hanger. Plastic fumes can lead to yellowed material over time, and it will keep much better folded in a wedding chest rather than hanging up.

Have it preserved.

If you really want to make sure that nothing will happen to ruin your bridal gown after the wedding, you can have it professionally preserved. Once the dress is cleaned, they will package it in an acid-free, archival box that keeps it from staining or deteriorating. You will want it to look just like it did on your wedding day if your daughter also wears it down the aisle someday.

Turn it into a keepsake.

A creative seamstress can create all kinds of wonderful things out of your wedding dress. You can also find lots of interesting ideas if you search online through sites like Pinterest. Some really great ideas include:

A christening gown or bassinet cover for your future child.
A quilt.
A Christmas tree skirt.
Throw pillows for your home.
A covered photo album.

Wear it again.

If you are able to retain your wedding day shape, re-wearing your wedding gown on a special anniversary down the road can be a fun way to re-live that special memory. If you love the dress so much that you don't want to wait that long, let a seamstress turn it into a stunning cocktail dress or evening gown to be worn right away. It can be left in the original color or dyed your favorite shade.

Donate it.

If you would like to pass along the love that is attached to your beautiful wedding dress to someone else, you can donate it. There are many charities that collect bridal gowns for women that are not able, for one reason or another, to afford one of their own. Some charities also re-sell the dresses to raise funds for their particular cause. In next week's blog, we will feature a few of these wonderful organizations that accept donations.

Your favorite bridal salon in Pompano Beach can help you find your dream dress before the wedding, and hopefully this blog has given you a bit of inspiration for what to do with it after. This subject really is worth putting some thought into. Whether you keep it in the family in some way or pass it on, doing something with your wedding gown will help it to live on beyond photographs.

5 Tips To Find the Perfect Mother's Gown

The wedding dress has been found and the bridesmaids' dresses are picked out, but there is another very important dress to take care of. Both the bride's and groom's mothers deserve to stand out from the crowd at their children's wedding. The best bridal salon in Pompano Beach carries a multitude of exquisite gowns for these significant women. Here are a few tips to help Mom find the perfect dress for your wedding at Angelus Bridal & Formals.

1. Talk to the bride and groom.

The day is all about these two "kids." Discuss with them how they would like for you to present yourself at their wedding. They may have some suggestions so that you blend in better with the style, color, and feel of the wedding. On the other hand, you may be given free reign to choose whatever you like. It's always kind to check first though.

2. Consider all of the wedding details.

There are many factors that should figure into your dress choice for the ceremony and reception. Keeping these in mind will help to assure that you stay comfortable throughout the entire celebration.

The venue: Is it outdoors or indoors? Are there lots of hills or stairs?
The activities: If you plan on doing a lot of dancing, make sure you choose a gown you can really move in.
The time: Day events can be more casual, and evening weddings may be more formal.
The season: You may be buying a dress in the winter for a wedding in the summer. Keep in mind what the temperature is expected to be for the day you will be wearing the dress.

3. Coordinate with the other mother.

Eyes will be on the both of you all day, and you will most likely be in many photos together. Coordinating fashion with your future in-law can avoid dresses that look too much alike or clash, and possibly avoid conflicts or hurt feelings.

4. Shop early.

The earlier you begin searching for your dress, the more time you will have to find the perfect one that you are truly happy with. This will also allow you all of the time that you need to have any alterations done and find the most perfect accessories to compliment your gorgeous gown.

5. Stick to your personal style.

All of these factors will aid you in finding the most wonderful dress for your child's wedding day, but your personal style is the one thing that will be your best guide. If you don't feel like yourself, you probably won't enjoy it as much as you could. Use the above tips while you shop, but never forget to make the dress yours. You'll want to look like your lovely self, just with a little extra "WOW!"

Our bridal dress shop in South Florida is the best place to find the gown that you are envisioning for your son or daughter's wedding. When you come in for your appointment, we can offer you an array of gorgeous colors, exquisite styles, and luxurious fabrics to choose from.

Most importantly, you will receive the special care and personalized attention that you deserve during this special shopping trip. It's a momentous occasion, and Angelus Bridal & Formals will make sure that your look will make the wedding couple proud.

Exquisite Dresses & Exceptional Customer Service

Angelus Bridal & Formals has become the best wedding dress store in South Florida for two very important reasons: the amazing gowns we sell and the exceptional customer service that we sell them with. A special day deserves an incredible dress, and the wonderful woman wearing it deserves to be treated like the belle of the ball!

Our South Florida bridal salon makes each customer the center of attention when she comes in to find that perfect wedding dress or special occasion gown.

We offer the full service of a fine bridal salon, pampering each woman at her appointment and giving her our full, undivided attention.

All of the bridal consultants in our wedding gown store have been expertly trained. Their training is not only focused on knowing the product, but also on how to treat our very important customers. They are able to educate a customer on every aspect that goes into finding her perfect gown.

The driving force behind this excellent customer service is our amazing owner, Coco Abadi. With over 30 years of experience in the bridal business, he has learned what women are looking for in a special occasion dress. Coco stated, "I have worked with every type of situation that could arise when choosing, ordering, even accessorizing a bride's wedding gown." He even went so far as to design the Flattering Me Bra because he saw a special need, couldn't find a solution already available, so he took care of the problem himself! That is exactly how Coco and his entire staff approach every situation. They will make sure that their customers get what they need.

Another way that Angelus Bridal & Formals goes the extra-mile for our customers is that we are a one-stop bridal shop. In house, we have a photographer, cake designer, makeup artist, florist, alterations, and tuxedos. After you find your dream wedding dress, you will be able to take care of many of your other wedding plans.
