You Might Be Getting Married After All...

     I almost gave this blog site up last week. After days and days of searching for beautiful brides over the age of 30, I found myself stuck. I couldn't find intriguing stories, and no one seemed willing to help with any leads. How would I maintain a site on brides over 30,  if I could only find 5 brides that embraced that description?? But low and behold, right when I wanted to toss in the towel, I came upon this lovely couple...



Bride: Natasha Green (Wedding Age: 35)
Groom: Kevin Reynolds (Wedding Age: 37)


     "Simple & Sweet: Many women already have their wedding dress, their bridesmaid dresses, their ceremony and reception venues selected before they even get a proposal. However, Natasha wanted her big day to be as low-key and hassle-free as humanly possible. The couple decided to have both their wedding and reception at a local restaurant based on the referral of one of Natasha's coworkers. "I wasn't even going to have a ceremony at all but we decided to do something small for our mothers," explains Natasha. There were no bridal party, no huge floral arrangements or most of the other bells and whistles of a typical bridal affair for two young professionals but the couple had more than enough love and laughter for a lifetime of happiness." --Essence.com


     What kind of wedding do you want, my future savvy sonsie bride? Does it matter if you have it outdoors or indoors? In a church, in a restaurant? For those that have already been brides: How did the location play a part in your special day?
