With the jewel tone shades of fall and the icy hues of winter, bold strawberry shades are sure to be a winning look. The color looks great paired with tuxedo's and when complemented with neutral makeup (maybe a pop on the lip) it is very fresh and flattering. Here are a few of my favorites from Amsale (amsale.com), Jenny Yoo (jennyyoo.com) and Bill Levkoff (billlevkoff.com).

I’ll readily admit it: I’m a vamp tramp. But I’m not one of these new-school Team Edward kids. No, I’ve been into vamps since before Lestat changed Louis and “to every generation a slayer is born.” My love of vamps runs deep, and since I know I’m not alone—ahem, I’m talking to you Sookie, Star and even Bella—I thought I’d share the ghoul news I recently received about a Vampire Cruise hosted on Holland America. Called Vamps at Sea, the Alaskan itinerary promises to be a fangtastic week of all things vamp.

There will be vampire balls and talent competitions, scavenger hunts and movie presentations, as well as the opportunity to meet some experts in all things undead. The entire event sounds like an awesome way to celebrate a bachelorette getaway—with limited sunlight, of course. For more information, go to vampsatsea.com.

Here's a video so bizarre and creepy, we had to share... created in 1956, this video features champion dog breeder Alexandra Williams dressing up two of her pups as bride and groom and another pair as bridesmaids.

Hello from sunny Singapore!  I have always been what I call a sentimental fruit basket—I love the idea of incorporating small details that represent the powerful emotions of your wedding day. Today, I am going to share the little things that will make our wedding "ours," in the hopes that they will inspire other brides!

Last weekend, we heard about thousands of weddings being cancelled due to Hurricane Irene. My heart goes out to these couples — when planning my own wedding, a weather-related cancellation was one of my top wedding worries. Why? I took a huge risk and planned a winter wedding in New Jersey.

      See the snow in the background?

As soon as Adam and I began talking about dates, we knew we weren't going to plan a summer wedding. Neither of us were crazy about the idea of sweating on our wedding day. Plus, everyone gets married in the summer — we wanted to do something different. I've always loved winter, so I started daydreaming about a winter wonderland theme. The added bonus: We saved thousands of dollars by hosting our wedding in the off-season. 

They married before 400 of their nearest and dearest. The bride wore three wedding gowns and appeared on the cover of People magazine. And last night, newlyweds Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries were fêted at a fabulous party at Capitale hosted by Jason Binn and wedding planner extraordinaire Colin Cowie. The party was billed as a “night of style and glamour” to welcome the media stars to New York City. Naturally, Bridal Guide was right there, keeping up with those Kardashians and taking in all the action and revelry. Here I am with Stefania Sainato, BG’s Web Producer (left) and Kristen O’Gorman Klein, our Online Editor (right).

When we arrived, there were barricades in front of the venue, lots of paparazzi (and police on standby for crowd control) as well as a loooong line of invited guests waiting to get in. The doors soon opened and the glammed-up crowd entered a spacious room that was surrounded by tall white urns filled with black and white feathers.

This just in: After nearly 65 years, iconic wedding dress designer Priscilla of Boston will be shutting down 19 salons and discontinuing all of its labels by December 31, 2011. 

Labels that fall under the PoB brand include: Priscilla of Boston, Platinum by Priscilla of Boston, The Dress by Priscilla of Boston, Jewel by Priscilla of Boston, Melissa Sweet, Reverie by Melissa Sweet, and the Vineyard Collection.

An official statement released by David's Bridal said: "We are grateful to have had the opportunity to help women across the country look their best on one of the most important days of their lives."

Brian Beitler, the CEO of David's, added that, "At the end of the day, the decision is really based on looking at our resources and capital investments and looking to invest in Priscilla's sister division, David's Bridal."
