Category — {Breast Cancer Awareness}

On Friday, October 16, The Martha Stewart Show was devoted to Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This episode gave us a couple of great ideas (if we do say so ourselves) that you may want to employ for your wedding!

As you may already know, we here at The Knotty Bride are always looking for ways to infuse what we find to be wonderful things and ideas, into weddings. Well, this time it was a no-brainer and we’re SURE that your bridal party will be psyched over the first one.

So, getting to it: are you looking for a meaningful item to give to your bridesmaids that they’ll treasure, not just throw in a drawer when they get home? Maybe pink is integral to your wedding color scheme, and you’d like that to extend to your bridal party’s look as they walk… or dance, whatever floats your boat… up the aisle. Or maybe breast cancer has had an impact on your life or the lives of your friends and family, and you are looking for a way to show support and awareness in a way that will bring delight to your guests’ faces, and a feeling of happiness and warmth to their hearts.

If any of that applies to you, well then two things are happening here — 1) we love you! and 2) we’ve got the perfect gift for your bridal party, and anyone else to whom you’d like to give something truly special and incredibly meaningful…

Now imagine that diva-liciousness draped around the necks of your beautiful bridesmaids? They can also roll and tie the scarves around their necks, for a that sophisticated french look. Hard to pull off, but ah-mazing when done right.

Do you love a good DIY project?  Then may we suggest showing your support through your invitations!

You may have seen this golden beauty on The Today Show with Kathie Lee and Hoda: it’s the Limited Edition COUSIN CLAUDINE EXCLUSIVE FOR JENNIFER MILLER, and I highly recommend it! And why not on your wedding day, as your ’something pink?’  In my opinion, it would look stunning on a bride’s wrist as she walks down the aisle. So, consider supporting this October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Charity Program benefiting SUSAN G KOMEN FOR THE CURE by dawning one of these: Breast Cancer Awareness bracelet of jewels.
