Tip of the Day: Spend quality time with Mom now, before post-wedding life gets hectic. Mothers can often feel like your wedding means they're getting older, so boost Mom's mood with a few girls' days out (no wedding talk allowed). And keep that tradition going after the big day.

Recently, I experienced one of the best cuts of my life at premier NYC salon Eiji Salon. I must confess, when I left the salon, I felt like a Pantene commercial; my hair moved beautifully! The secret to this fabulous cut: "The Dry Cut."
Eiji Salon specializes in the artistic dry cut. A protégé of dry-cutting master John Sahag, Eiji Yamane leads a professional team of stylists in this serene loft-like salon that focus on the dry-cut. The salon boasts a client list that includes Catherine Zeta-Jones, Yoko Ono and Sarah Jessica Parker.
After receiving this amazing cut I felt I must share this best kept secret with Bridal Guide's readers. I sat down with Eiji Salon stylist Akira Yamane to learn more.
1. Why is the dry cut more desirable than the wet cut?
The dry cut creates balance and shape, meaning the hair has better movement and falls into shape impeccably. It is a more visual, creative technique compared to a traditional “wet hair cut,” which is more of a structured cut according to a guide line. Every dry cut has its own uniqueness and originality to the shape and details. The dry cut allows the stylist to follow the natural patterns of your hair, as opposed to a status quo approach that does not consider the uniqueness of each person.
2. How much time does a dry cut take?
The dry cut is roughly an hour and a half per client. We value our time with our clients and utilize our unique technique and precision by taking smaller sections of the hair to have more control of the weight and balance of the hair. When cutting hair, we check for movement, weight and feel. Every strand is as important as the next.

But just because you can DIY your wedding doesn’t always mean that you should. Here are a few reasons you may want to skip doing it yourself and just hire a pro.

Tip of the Day: There’s no rule that says you and your bridesmaids can’t all carry white bouquets! Create one for yourself with all of your favorite blooms, and then choose a smaller, more subtle design for your 'maids.
This is an especially lovely look if your bridal party attendants are wearing bright dresses. At the reception, make their bouquets work double-time by encircling them around the base of your wedding cake.

A new poll by American Express reveals that wedding spending is on the rise — and it's not just the bride and groom who are shelling out more on their dream day. According to data collected from over 1,500 respondents in the United States, about 69 million people will attend at least one wedding in 2013, and they plan to spend 59 percent more than they did last year. So where is all of this money going? Here, a breakdown of what it costs to attend (and throw) an average wedding.
