Claudine Kenney Owner/Designer Bridal
Perfections
Underlying
Secrets The foundation of the Wedding
gown
Worn hidden away is an
underlying secret that will make or break the fit
of even the most expensive wedding gown. The cut of
the bustier should mimic the cut of your gown bodice.
For example, if your gown has a dropped waist your
bustier should not stop at your waist. The bustier must
not show at the neckline or have boning that is so
thick that it shows under your gown. Sewn in cups and
tape or self-adhering gel cups are also an option. What
ever your decide, I suggest wearing your foundation
selection once or twice for up to six hours before
your special day... you don't want to find out
on your wedding day that it's unbearable or just doesn't
work. Proper selection of foundations will enhance
the look and fit of your bridal gown giving you that
perfectly finished look and the comfort to enjoy your
magical wedding day.

Trivia
The history
behind the Best Man:
Among
the Germanic Goths of northern Europe in 200 A.D., a man
usually married a woman from within his own community.
However, when there were fewer women, the prospective
bridegroom would capture his bride from a neighboring
village. The bridegroom was accompanied by his strongest
friend (or best friend), who helped him capture his
bride.

Questions for Kiya: Kiya
S. Sakaris,
C.P.C.C. Question:
Dear Kiya, I would like to prepare myself for
marriage but I tend to be controlling, possessive and
insecure. How do I overcome these negative traits
to become a better person and find one true love? ~
Les
Answer: Dear
Les, Controlling,
possessive and insecure behaviors are traits that all go
hand in hand. Most of the time, you can’t have one
without the other. Insecurity usually brings other types
of behaviors to the surface, such as, control,
possession, obsession, anger or paranoia. The best way
to plan for your future is to work on any insecurities
you might have. Another way to look at it is to build as
much confidence as possible. There are many ways to
build confidence and I will list many of the pertinent
ways below. 1. Do things for others. Helping others
can help you to concentrate on them instead of your own
worries. Sometimes, just the fact that one knows they
have these traits can enhance them. To alleviate
insecurity, look to help and care for other
people. 2. Never put anyone down. Every time a person
makes a negative comment towards another, they become
withdrawn inside. If you are sincerely happy for a
person, without jealousy or hindrance, you build on your
essence, as a quality person. 3. Exercise and eat a
healthy diet. A diet that is full of nutrients will give
you the proper vitamins and minerals that a person needs
to create and expel endorphins, naturally. Exercise
always makes a person feel good about themselves as well
as creating those important chemicals in your
body. 4. Believe in fate. If you believe that there
is only so much you can control; the rest is a waste of
time and energy. Let life take it's course and let
things happen. You can usually find a valuable lesson in
it and a way to grow as a person, because of it. 5.
Let go of the ones that you love. The more you let
others do what they want to do, the more they will
choose to be with you. When people are fenced in or
smothered, the more they want to stay away or leave.
Nobody wants to have restrictions or boundaries. It is
like a form of punishment. 6. Do the right thing.
Follow the rules, live your life to the best of your
ability. Stay away from trouble or bending the
rules. 7. Be independent. Do as much as you can on
your own without the help of others, unless you are
truly in need. Learn how to do things that you do not
already know, for example, building, cooking, hiking,
sewing, mechanics, etc. Become well rounded and be
proud of what you have learned and accomplished. Hope
this helps a little! You can do whatever you put your
mind to, so if you want to change some personality
traits, it is up to you. You will do great and you will
find a gal soon. Just practice these qualities and it
will come. Take care and good
luck! Kiya
Sakaris, C.P.C.C.
