I often get asked about great bands, and obviously, everyone's musical tastes vary, but I must tell you that about a year ago, we worked with a band that no one who was at the wedding could ever stop talking...

Wednesday Website of The Week: Lynda.com

post from Corsentino Photographer Blog on 23 July 2008 11:05:00 AM. © Corsentino Photographer Blog

This is my first Wednesday Website of The Week or "www"!!! With a little luck this will hopefully be a weekly spotlight of the best sites I've come across during my wild and woolly web travels. I'll be featuring sites with a focus on photography, software, technology, business, marketing, music, you name it! If it's cool and something I think you'll find interesting, it'll be here on Wednesdays.

What better web destination to lead off with than Lynda.com! This site is a geek's paradise, best friend, and potential addiction. It's an amazing software training resource that's limited only by the amount of time you have to spend there. If you're the self motivated type, don't have time for classes and don't see the sense in investing in soon to be outdated instructional dvds than this is place for you.

Choke full of hours and hours of self paced video tutorials about the latest creative and business software titles, it's a must see. If you'd like to learn from today's top experts about powerful Photoshop techniques, how to produce podcasts, the ins and outs of your computer's new operating system, or how to use Quickbooks like a pro, then this is the place for you.

There are different and reasonable subscription options with something for everyone. Check out the free training videos at Lynda.com to get feel for the awesome quality of their instruction. But beware - you may never leave :-)

Dressin the girls Pt 2: 2 colors, 1 company

post from Starry-eyed Barefoot Bride on 23 July 2008 10:55:00 AM. © Starry-eyed Barefoot Bride

After we decided our colors of Aqua and Ocean Blue, it was time to start looking for a company to get dresses from! I had few requirements for the company to be picked:

Have a light AND a dark blue that I liked (and would coordinate together).
Have several different styles of dress options for each body type because no 2 bridesmaid of mine have the same body types.
Be reasonably priced.

You really wouldn't think it would be THAT hard!! It literally took me from JANUARY until JUNE to find the company we were going to go with. Many companies had some great blues!! But each company had a beautiful dark blue that I loved, but their light blue was baby. Or they had a great aqua-ish color, but their dark blue was blah-navy. Or - they had both and cost a small fortune!

I found this one while I was shopping for my dress and was a big fan of the fabric detailing. Unfortunately, it was a bit green, limited in styles, and the coordinating light blue was baby blah.

This one I found at the shop where I found my dress. It was fun, but only came in a few styles that were all a bit....unsupportive for anyone bigger than me.

I loved this blue from Alfred Angelo! Unfortunately, it only comes in taffeta, which only comes in 7 styles, none of which I, or any of my girls were much of a fan of.

I am a fan of Ann Taylor, so why not look into her dresses? Ahh - Because they are more of a slate blue, and less of the lighthearted colors I was going for.

Jim Hjelm has a zillion designs so there must be something for everyone... as long as you've got a large dress budget. If you do, they have some really unique designs and colors... needless to say, this is not the budget range I am aiming for.

Another pretty Jim Hjelm that is a great blue, at a grand price.

And then, through a bridal blog I stalk but can't remember at the moment, I found Lynn Lugo custom dresses.

More Lynn Lugo in beautiful blues and great styles!! I love the small details that really them a coordinating set when standing together, but still look fun individually.

I ordered Lynn Lugo samples and fell in love with ALL of her blues! I was ready right then and there to tell the girls pick any blue and design your own dress!... and then I looked at the pricing details and was crushed. It was not CRAZY expensive, but more than I'd ask anyone to pay.

At this point I was ready to give up and find one dress and let them be matchy-matchy even though I hate that. Anyone find it harder to dress the girls than the bride?
