2009 Bride's Choice Award Winner!

WeddingWire, the nation’s leading wedding technology company, just announced that Puttin' On The Glitz has won the 2009 Bride’s Choice Awards™! 

In its inaugural year, the Bride’s Choice Awards recognizes and honors vendors from the WeddingWire Network that demonstrate excellent quality of service, responsiveness, professionalism, value of cost and flexibility. This year’s recipients represent the top three percent of WeddingWire’s vendor community, which includes over 100,000 wedding vendors from across the US. That means Puttin' On The Glitz is one of the very best bridal boutiques, featuring bridal accessories, invitations, fine silk florals, and unique gifts. 

Unlike other awards in which winners are selected by the company, the Bride’s Choice Awards are determined exclusively by recent newlyweds through surveys and reviews. 

“We are excited to launch this annual award program to honor high-performing vendors based solely on the experiences of our WeddingWire community,” according to Timothy Chi, WeddingWire’s Chief Executive Officer. “This year’s recipients have set the bar high, exhibiting excellent service and expertise in the wedding industry.” 

Puttin' On The Glitz would like to thank our past clients for speaking on our behalf and helping us win the 2009 Bride’s Choice Award!

Tiara and Veil Trends for 2009

After attending the National Bridal Market in Chicago, we got a first-hand look at new products from all of the major bridal companies.  That, along with our talking to brides every day, has helped us put together this list of hot trends for 2009.

In tiaras and headpieces, one of the newest trends are ribbons adorned with crystals that can be tied around a bun, worn like a headband, or be worked in to just about any hairstyle.  They are versatile, delicate, and very feminine.  


One of the other trends in bridal headpieces are headbands.  Instead of a crown-like tiara, they lie flat (more like a traditional headband).  Often they have a focal piece in the center or just off to one side.  Just as beautiful as a standard tiara, they are perfect for brides wearing their hair down or with short hair, or those who might not want the "princess" look.  


In veils, the biggest trend that we have noticed is most of our brides opting for short veils from 18"-24".  With most bridal gowns having beautiful detailing on the back, this allows the bride to wear a veil without detracting from the beauty of the dress.  These shorter veils are available in a wide variety of styles.
