It seems like everyone is getting hitched these days! Of course, the couple everybody was talking about is Angelina and Brad. After seven years (and a football team of kids!) together, the Hollywood power couple is finally going to walk down the aisle. Brad certainly didn’t disappoint with the bling. He reportedly decked out Angie’s finger with a 16-carat stunner. But forget about the ring… we can’t stop daydreaming about their wedding? What will she wear? Who will design it? Where will it all take place? Keep dreaming, but don’t forget about these other celebs that popped the question recently.

We especially can’t get enough of the bold chains and rose gold featured in their Pomelatto Collection. Each piece is exquisitely crafted and refreshingly unique. Accessorize your wedding day look with diamond-encrusted bracelets and necklaces, bright blue drop earrings, or delicate layering necklaces. You really can’t go wrong with any of their stunning pieces.

On top of the gorgeous Pomelatto Collection, Bijouterie Italienne carries an absolutely stunning selection of Scott Kay wedding and engagement rings. We love the details in the vintage collection best, but the clean, simple lines of the Contemporary line are equally beautiful. Visit the Scott Kay website to see the entire selection of rings (including mens).

Share your favorite piece with us in the comments! Which Pomelatto item are you drooling over?

One of the top producers of amazing lifestyle cinema (weddings, engagement videos, and save the date films to name a few), VillaView also has loads of professional experience shooting commercials, behind-the-scenes footage, and special events. They even shot this year’s Bridal Boudoir:

From the VillaView website:

The power of cinema is that it has the ability to engage an audience emotionally. Unlike very “literal” representations of a moment or idea, VillaView strives on capturing the meaning and “feel” behind it. With the utmost professionalism and enthusiasm, the VillaView crew works to tell YOUR story with originality and sincerity. 

The VillaView team has an impressive portfolio of work that you can see here, and they even filmed the Luluthia Wedding Atelier launch that we planned back in October.

Antoinette Di Carlo has been sewing since age eight, and her talent is visible in each dress that she creates for her line of stunning custom evening gowns: Di Carlo Couture. Antoinette’s years of experience, combined with a sharp eye for detail, have led to a successful career in fashion, a gorgeous line of dresses and, this weekend, a spot at the Bridal Boudoir Affair 2012! We couldn’t be happier to have her!

Di Carlo Couture focuses on creating one-of-a-kind, haute couture designs. Much like the gowns you see on the red carpet. Each is meticulously handcrafted in Antoinette’s home studio after a one-on-one design consultation with her clients. With a focus on superior fabrics and luxurious details, Di Carlo Couture is the perfect studio for your wedding day look. Visit Antoinette at the Bridal Boudoir Affair this weekend to preview some of her designs, and to book your own personal appointment.

The Bridal Boudoir Affair has always showcased the best in bridal fashion but, this year, we truly have something special to share with you. As part of our bridal fashion show, Galleria Della Sposa will debut a collection of wedding gowns designed especially for our Montreal brides! The dresses will only be available in their Montreal boutique and, as guests of the Bridal Boudoir Affair, you will be the very first to preview the collection!

The gowns are edgy, feminine, and romantic. With luxurious fabrics and unique details like embellished corsets and jeweled accents, you’ll have a hard time choosing a favorite.

In addition to the Galleria Della Sposa gowns, our fashion show will also feature dresses from top designers such as Jenny Peckham, Monique L’huillier, Reem Acra, Oscar  De La Renta, Marchesa  - all available at White Toronto.

Elsa Corsi’s stunning pieces are practically dripping with old Hollywood glamour. Her over-sized earrings, delicate necklaces and unique bridal collections are the perfect combination of glitz and sophistication. If you’re looking for the ultimate in wedding day accessories… look no further.

Elsa has been creating jewelry and accessories since 1999, but it was her 2006 wedding that inspired the line of bridal jewelry that we are so lucky to showcase!

From Elsa’s bio:

It was in 2006, to celebrate her own wedding that she came out with a dedicated collection of bridal jewellery. Clients were attracted to the vintage technique mastered in the collection and were thrilled to have their own piece of heirloom jewellery. Her bridal and special occasion jewellery is sought out by the city’s top stylists and fashion editors each season for editorial photo shoots in Real Weddings, Weddingbells, NUVO, BC Business and Grace Ormonde Wedding Style.

It’s hard to pick a favorite piece from Elsa’s extensive collection… gift your bridesmaids the gorgeous hair pins, wrap your wrists in her pearl bracelets, or present the mother of the bride with a pair of jaw-dropping earrings. Whichever item you choose, you’re sure to stand out from the crowd in it!

When’s the last time you planned your outfit around your accessories? If you’ve worn any of Charlotte Hosten’s statement-making pieces, you know exactly what we’re talking about. Bridal Boudoir Affair is thrilled to welcome Charlotte and her brilliant designs to our 2012 Affair! Her necklaces, bracelets, brooches and bridal couture collections are like nothing we’ve ever laid eyes on, and we can’t wait to share them with you.

From Charlotte’s website:

“Born and raised in Belgium but now living in Montreal, Charlotte has traveled the world. Self-made designer, she instinctively learned to create jewelry at the age of 15. The idea of mounting a piece onto fabric was introduced in 2008,  when she couldn’t find a clasp she liked to support her creations : she then started to embroider beads onto fabric. Ever since, her necklaces have become luxurious sculptures; sometimes made of one of a kind antique jewelry pieces or, for the custom made pieces, with the treasures her clients bring her. Charlotte Hosten’s work was recently featured in Elle Québec, Fashion, The Gazette and Châtelaine, just to name a few. Her necklaces are now distributed in the USA and in Japan.”

“Luxurious sculptures,” indeed! Each piece that Charlotte creates seems to come alive with a personality of their own. Charlotte’s use of bright colors and bold patterns not only guarantees that you’ll have a one-of-a-kind accessory, but that you’ll stand out in a crowd. For something extra special, Charlotte creates custom pieces just for your wedding day. From the flower girl to the bride, no one in your wedding party will go unnoticed in one of Charlotte’s works of art.
