Grand Opening of the Bridal Bar Atlanta

Announcing...




I am very excited to announce Chaviano Bridal Couture will be joining the Bridal Bar Atlanta as one of their vendors.

The Bridal Bar is a boutique that supplies a complimentary peek at the pre-screened best of the best in the wedding industry. The founders have searched high and low to compile an extensive group of event professionals who have been cordially invited to display their works based on style, experience, and impeccable reputation in their fields of expertise. The Bridal Bar has had the priveledge of helping with celebrity weddings such as Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, Katherine Heigel, Will Smith and many more.

We look forward to working with them and making many Atlanta and Southern brides very happy.

Anatomy of a Dress- back of a gown



It is often that much attention is placed on the front of a gown and with good reason, but what if the back was just as special as the front? Here are a few examples of details on the back of gowns, that make it unique and different.



One of my all time favorite back of a gown is this one with Nicole Kidman.



Studio Z Business Cards.

A few months ago, I began my search for the perfect business card. There are so many different styles and kinds that it was becoming somewhat difficult to decide. Then someone suggested I contact Zida. Although located in California, her warm voice and willingness to help ,made me feel like she was familiar with Southern hospitality. I fell in love with their Letterpress cards, and together designed a clean and simple business card. I get asked about my cards all the time, and my credit goes to them. Check out their website for more examples and information on what they do.

Studio Z Mendocino

Here is a blopg post they recently put up regarding Chaviano Bridal Couture.

Annette Chaviano Thurmon wanted a card that reflected the gorgeous couture wedding dresses that she designs. The dresses are truly beautiful creations made for each bride with exquisite materials. Letterpress was a clear match for her taste and style. Finally she has a card that is an experience, just like each of her pieces. You can see her stunning custom gowns at www.chavianocouture.com

It's been a while

I have been terrible about posting lately. Will promise to be better, and have lots of exciting things coming up to post about. The summer is flying by and I've been quite busy. Couldn't be more thankful though. God is blessing in great ways, stay tuned for more updates,

Warmest,
Annette
