Kim Kardashian "Konnubial"

As reported, Kim Kardashian will finally wed on August 20, 2011. Per statements and a short video (below) from her bridal shower, her family is extremely excited and looking forward to Kim's walk down the white aisle ... and so are we!

According to the double-K monogrammed wedding invitation, the black-tie event is set to take place in Montecito, California (near Oprah Winfrey's lavish estate). As with many celebrity couples, specific location information was left off the invitation for security purposes. But we can count on the paparazzi uncovering this little secret in no time.

It seems Kim has been eager to join her sisters, Khloe and Kourtney, in the "larger milestones of life" (marriage and children). Needless to say, her engagement to NBA player Kris Humphries was no shock. Albeit, the enormous 20.5 carat engagement ring was quite a surprise. Whoa!

So as the entertainment world awaits photos and details of what's sure to be an extravagant affair, much speculation has arisen concerning the bride's choice of gown. It's fair to guess she has endless options, but quite unlikely we'll get a glimpse of the lucky design prior to the wedding day. Still, it's so much fun to guess, isn't it? We're thinking Kim may take a que from one of the following fabulous designs:

SIMONE CARVALLI

MARTINA LIANA

GATTINONI

ROSA CLARA

ELIZABETH FILLMORE

HEIDI ELNORA

We're predicting Kim will pull from the one-shoulder trend, infuse a little romance (perhaps with hints of lace) and definitely select a gown that's somewhat form-fitting. What's your best guess for Kim?

scam (skām): A fraudulent business scheme

Y esterday, I received my first wedding scam attempt (guess my latest marketing and advertising efforts are starting to work). I received an email from an "Irish" bride-to-be whose fiance was offered a job in the U.S. and needed help planning a small wedding in New Jersey. I vaguely remembered hearing of certain swindle attempts on wedding vendors (especially photographers and videographers), so my radar peaked immediately, however, I didn't jump to any conclusions right away. I responded to the email, drew up a preliminary proposal, quoted cost of service and submitted an invoice for payment. Nonetheless, when it became apparent that the bride-to-be and her French fiance only intended on mailing a cashier's check, I knew right away what I was dealing with ... a scam! I happen to know that international cashier's checks are not fully validated for 90 days. So even though the check may clear at first, if found to be phony, the money is later deducted. I must say, i...

"Farm Sweet Farm" 1st Birthday Party

My husband and I celebrated our baby twins, Jonah & Gia's, 1st birthday with a "Farm Sweet Farm" party last weekend. The party was held at our home (aka The Anderson Farm ) and our closest family and friends excitedly attended. Honestly it's still difficult for us to believe a full year has gone by since they entered our lives, but one thing was clear from the beginning --- we had a lot to celebrate and we intended to do just that! Everyone had loads of fun; they would've partied until the cows came home if we let them. And since the guests of honor LOVE animals, the theme proved to be absolutely perfect for them and their guests. To most, I'm known for planning amazing weddings and bridal celebrations by means of THE BRIDAL PARTY , so it was really a lot of fun to step outside of my comfort zone and show off my versatility and range. I can't deny, this was FUN! I'm still quite "giddy" about it all. * * * * * * * * * * INVITA...

Aidan & Jonathan: Enchanted Forest

We shared snapshots of our Enchanted Forest wedding just four days ago and somehow, SOMEWAY, professional photos became available last night! (an unbelievable world record ... calling Guinness after the holiday) As mentioned before, we were brought on to plan and execute this wedding just 3 months out, at which time 90% of the vendors and service providers had not been selected. But I must say, we couldn't have had a better team of professionals bring this event to life if we'd started a year ago. The ceremony was held in the evening on the outdoor patio of Stone House at Stirling Ridge in Warren, NJ. On this brisk mid-November night, our teams successfully achieved a loving and warm ambiance by having clear tent wall covered by swags of 21-foot long fabric hung on the outer perimeter of the space. This treatment allowed for the bride's dream of being married near nature but also kept the couple's beloved friends and family comfortable. A blo...
