Your Common Bridal Store/Shopping Questions and Answers

One thing that we want at Amanda-Lina’s is your total comfort and happiness. As a bridal store, we understand that a bride usually has questions that they want answered with regards to their wedding gown and bridal fitting. Read our answers to some of these questions and more in this post.

  • Is It Better to Walk into Your Boutique or to Book an Appointment?

As a bride, it is important to book an appointment so that we can provide you with our undivided attention. Your appointment takes place with a dedicated consultant present so you get expert opinion and are informed of all the options you have when it comes to your wedding gown and your fittings. The other members of your bridal party can come in for their wears without appointments between Mondays to Saturdays.

  • Do I Have to Bring Bridesmaids to My Fittings?

It is perfectly fine to come to your appointment by yourself. We understand that it can be a bit overwhelming for you with all eyes being on you. Our consultants are friendly and ready to help so there is no stress if you come alone. It is also okay if you want to come along with your friends. We have comfortable seating arrangements for three guests, so we advise that you try to limit the number of people you come with. Limiting the number of persons that you come with is also advisable because you do not want to have too many confusing opinions (Afterall, too many cooks spoil the broth is what they say).

  • If I’m Shopping by Myself, Do I Still Have to Book an Appointment with Your Store?

You should book an appointment so that you get the best that our one-on-one service has to offer. When shopping for your wedding gown with us you have to book an appointment. You can do this through our website by clicking “book an appointment” or you can call (905) 265-8707 and when prompted, press 2.

  • Can I Bring Photos of Gowns That I Like to My Appointment?

Yes, of course, you can and we advise that you do. With us, you get dedicated stylists who are ready to work closely with you until you find your perfect dream gown.

We hope that we’ve been able to help by answering these few questions. You will find more questions like these and their answers on our FAQ tab which you can find at the top of the page. We also have expert consultants that are more than ready to answer further questions you might have when you come in for your appointment at our store in Woodbridge, Canada.

Bridesmaid Dresses That All Your Bridesmaids Will Love

Apart from wanting to look your very best as a bride on your wedding day, you also want your bridesmaids to look their very best too. Whether you have 2 or 10 bridesmaids, finding a dress that looks great on everyone can seem like an impossibility. We at Amanda-Lina’s understand that you want your bridesmaids to look their very best standing beside you on your special day, so we’ve put together the following tips that will help you get the best dresses for your bridesmaids quite easily from our store.

  • Colors For Everyone

When choosing your bridesmaid dresses, you should keep in mind that not every hue is flattering on everyone. Shades of pink, navy, deep red and plum are universal, but you can also choose to mix and match a color palette. Start by choosing a color family and then allow your bridesmaids to choose a shade that they feel and look their best in.

  • Styles For Everyone

If you want all your bridesmaids to wear the same dress, there are some universal styles that flatter all body types. Any dress that has an A-line or ballroom gown style is sure to fit all body types. A dress with a V-neckline should also help to elongate your bridesmaid’s necks thereby flattering everyone. You should also go for a lightweight fabric that will be comfortable. If you, however, are okay with everyone choosing the style that best suits them, then allow them to choose the silhouette, neckline or sleeve that works for them. Here, you end up changing the dress style while matching the color.

  • Choose Dress Designs Based On Your Bridesmaid’s Body Shape

Every woman is either one or a combination of these body types: Pear Shaped, Apple Shaped, Hourglass Shaped and Rectangle-shaped. Each of these body types has a gown style perfect for them. Plan a fun activity where you and your bridesmaids determine which of these body types you fall into and the gowns that best fit your body types. Armed with this information and everyone’s measurements, you can then order directly and stress-free from our online store.

3 Lovely Bridal Headpieces

Bridal headpieces, as tiny as most of them are, can surprisingly alter the entire look of the bride. And this applies to any type of bridal headpiece: Architectural combs, floral crowns, gemstone jewels, starry hairpins, tiaras; many more of them.

The only issue we can think of regarding headpieces is the fact choosing the right one is almost next to impossible. There are so many different designs and variants that deciding which to choose is more than a challenge, which is why we picked out 3 of the best and trendiest of the lost just for you.

  • Bridal Tiaras

Have you ever wanted to be a princess? As unlikely as this may sound, a bridal tiara can turn you from a blushing bride into a princess who looks like she just stepped out of a fairy tale, and that’s no exaggeration. Choice favorite tiaras among brides are Chantilly Tiara, Desert Tiara, Augustina de Aragon, and Couronne Temperance.

Each of these tiaras are unique, but they can all easily attain that ‘royal look’ so many brides seek but few manage to achieve. The Chantilly Tiara, in particular, can achieve this look regardless of the type of wedding dress you wear. We don’t even know how this is possible. Maybe it’s magic? It certainly makes the bride look magical.

  • Celestial Star Headpieces

Celestial Star headpieces are taking the bridal industry by storm. From all indication, this trend is here to stay. A poetic way to describe these headpieces is to picture yourself on your wedding day with the stars and the moon itself nestled into your hair. Are you excited yet? You should be. The best headpieces in this category are Hair Comb, Callisto Moon Hair Pins, Celestial Coronet, Tonya Stylist and Nova Bandeaux.

  • Fashion-Forward Headpieces

There are traditional head-pieces but, in our opinion, these fashion-forward and modern variants take the cake. They are made with strong metals that give them a bold look. In comparison to other headpieces, they do have fewer options in terms of color but that doesn’t take away anything from how great, elegant and unique they look. Imagine how great they could make your hair and overall attire look?

Now, when you’ve decided on what headpiece to wear, there’s another thing that’s just as important: The rest of your wedding attire. That’s where we come in. Reach out to Amanda-Lina’s and we’ll outfit you with attire so stunning you’ll be the envy of the entire hall. Call us and we’ll make sure your wedding is something you won’t soon forget.

Different Ideas for Bridal Shower Activities

When it comes to bridal showers, there is no set way to do it. The best ideas usually work with the budget available, planning ahead of time and making sure lots of consultation is done with the bride on the event direction and guest list. You can also decide on whether the event will be a girl’s only ceremony or not. Make sure that the invitations go out on time and that you have a fair idea of the number of people attending.

Another thing about bridal showers is that if not properly planned, they can turn out to be boring, fake or a general snooze fest. So here’s a list of unconventional things that you can do to make your bridal shower fun and unforgettable.

First, before we proceed, make sure you choose fun games. Games that keep everyone laughing and busy are a good idea and then you could include any or all of the following:

Arts and Crafts Time

Make a variety of things from flower crowns to mixing perfumes. You can even practice beading and create fun items like bags, bracelets, necklaces and more. Involving your guests in a creative activity like this is bound to turn up some pretty useful results.

Have a Lesson

You could either invite a makeup professional, a chef or a baker to teach the bride and the guest some great tips when it comes to makeup, cooking or baking. The makeup class can include full bridal makeup training or a good skincare routine. For cooking, let everyone try their hands at some parts of the food preparation to make a more practical, interactive, hands-on experience.

Direct and Act a Play

This activity depends on the number of guests you have coming and can be quite entertaining. Just pick a topic and separate the guests into teams and then let each team come up with a play that they feel would best represent the topic picked. They can choose actors for the play and then everyone can watch the plays one after the other. The bride can be selected to pick the play she loves best or everyone can vote on the play that they enjoyed the most afterward.

Karaoke

A different but still fun way to engage the bridal shower guests, karaoke night is always fun so rent a machine and have everyone belt out their favorite lyrics or split them into teams for a faceoff. Karaoke is a great way to have the guest laughing and smiling at the bridal shower.

An Educative Tour

Who says that bridal showers have to always be indoors and not educative? Depending on your budget, take the girls out to a trip to either a museum, a winemaking factory, a farm or even a bakery. Find an educative but also a fun place that you can go around your bridal shower location that is within your budget and take along things for a picnic if possible.

Do Charity

A different way to spend your bridal shower that could still be rewarding is to find a charity that is dear to everyone’s heart and do activities on that day that will go towards helping the charity. You could visit an orphanage and spend some time with the kids or join a charity walk that might be happening on the same day.

Whichever of these you choose to do, just be sure to chronicle them and takes loads of pictures so that everyone has keepsakes to remind them of your special time together.

5 Great Wedding Ideas

Bells ringing, confetti raining down, raucous laughter; another wedding is here and there’s nothing but gaiety filling the air. Weddings present you with so much to do, don’t they? Yeah, but that only applies to weddings that are well-planned and carefully thought-out. The great ideas listed below should add a touch of ‘unique flair’ to your wedding.

  • A Bouquet is So Much More

As lovely as your bouquet is, why not turn into a vessel which conveys a message to your friends, loved ones, and anyone in attendance? Pin a photograph pf someone dear to you on the bouquet, or tie an item that holds sentimental value for you or both you and your spouse-to-be. Be uninhibited; do whatever feels right for you. After all, it’s your wedding.

  • Drink Coasters Stave Off the Thirst

Coasters could be a creative way to make sure drinks are left where they are on the table. Your guests can go enjoy themselves without the worry of their drinks being cleared or nicked, so to speak.

  • Seats Bring Us Together

Believe it or not, even altering the seating arrangement can add some excitement to your wedding. Instead of straight, formal rows, set the chairs in more of a circular or oval pattern around you. This way, you literally become the center of attention (pun intended), and it makes your guests feel more included in the wondrous event.

  • Never Forget Your Ribbons

If you’re not too keen on ‘making it rain’ with confetti, why not go for something a little less messy and more vibrant? Ribbons wands are the perfect solution. They can be made in colors to shame a rainbow, and they can pretty much go with any theme you can think of. And you can display them as a feature too, so when it comes to versatility, you can’t beat good, colorful ribbons.

  • One-of-a-kind RSVP Cards

Go beyond hat’s expected of you and design RSVP cards that speak of you and your partner. Write words on the cards that are clear reflections of your personalities. There’s really no need to be formal here or fancy here. Your honest words from the heart should do just fine.

So, there you have it. 5 great ways to make your wedding stand out from the rest. Try some or all of them and make the celebration one to remember. And hire Amanda-Lina’s to make sure your beautiful bride is cloaked by the finest wedding dress we’ve yet made.

You Will Love Our New Randy Fenoli Event at Amanda-Lina’s!

Wedding fashion is such an exciting and fascinating industry to be in – and don’t take this from people who have been selling wedding dresses for so much time now, but take it from people who witnessed the beauty of a bride who has just found her dress thousands of times before!

That specific wow moment is precisely the reason we always strive to surprise future brides with dresses and events that will make them feel absolutely stunning on their Big Day.

Are you guessing where we are going with this?

Yes, you are right – we have another upcoming event we know for sure you’ll be excited about!

More specifically, a new Randy Fenoli trunk show is in the works – and following, you will find all the details on why this trunk show is a must for Toronto brides who want to find the perfect wedding dress. Read on and find out more!

  • Randy Fenoli is, without doubt, one of the single most preeminent names in the entire bridal fashion industry. As the main source of inspiration for so many brides in the United States (and everywhere else), Randy’s story is, in itself, a majorly motivational one. Born in a family with seven children, Randy learned how to sew at the tender age of 9 – and ever since then, he has been in love with fashion (particularly bridal fashion, which he believes to be truly important in the life of a woman).
  • The Randy Fenoli trunk show at Amanda-Lina’s will take place between May 4th and May 11th, and you are invited to take a look at his new collection. As our guest, you will be among the very first future brides in Canada to see the new collection – and you can even order the dress you love too!
  • Keep in mind that the entire collection will only be available during the trunk show – after that, Amanda-Lina’s will only make a selection of the new collection gowns and bring them in store for brides who did not have a chance to attend the trunk show. So, if you want to see as many options as possible, this is your chance!

Want to schedule an appointment for the trunk show dates? Or maybe you just want to learn more about Randy Fenoli? Contact Amanda-Lina’s today and let’s talk about it!

Read on to find out more!

  • Eve Muscio, the designer behind Eve of Milday, has been designing stunning wedding gowns for more than three decades now. Her attention to every detail and her unique view of luxury weddings are just two of the characteristics you will find in her dresses again and again, one collection after the other, in every single inch of dress and every single detail on her pieces.
  • Here at Amanda Lina’s, we can provide you with dresses from all the three major collections signed by Eve of Milday: Amalia, Boutique, and Couture. All of these collections feature stunning gowns – the kind that simply take one’s breath away even when they are on rack. The detail work in every single one of these dresses is astounding: it exudes luxury and beauty, elegance, timelessness, and utter uniqueness at the same time.
  • The three collections are progressively more intricate in terms of the details they feature. The gowns in the Amalia collection are beautifully embedded with beadwork and embroidery that’s wearable, yet truly opulent at the same time. The gowns in the Boutique collection feature details that are just slightly daring and off-the-beat – such as a deeper décolletage or a pair of detachable sleeves. Last, but definitely not least, the Couture gowns come with a downright fairytale-like amount of details and embroidery on them, all beautifully brought together in true craftsmanship and good taste to make brides feel 100% unique as they walk down the aisle on their Big Day.
