Brides to be all have very different ideas, styles and tastes but several future brides who during their childhood constantly dreamed of becoming a Princess, and marrying their prince charming, seize the opportunity their wedding day presents, to make their lifelong dream become a true reality. These future brides decide to choose their wedding dresses from the vast array of Disney wedding dresses that can now be purchased.

Many of these gowns are very intricate and even though they can quite often look very elaborate, still they can be very cost effective and in my estimation they can be some of the most affordable wedding dresses that can be purchased.
There are various  wedding dress  styles to choose from, and countless designers actually name their gowns after Disney characters, for example Sleeping beauty, Cinderella, Ariel, Tirana etc to just name a few. Quite often wedding dress designer’s will also tailor bridesmaid dresses, flower girl dresses that will match the bride’s dress theme.


 
Frequently if a bride decides to choose a Disney style inspired wedding, it will necessitate that in addition to  the wedding dress that most of the other detail’s and factors associated with the wedding, should follow a similar Walt Disney theme, for example Mother of the bride dresses and Mother of the Groom dresses, bridesmaids and flower girl dresses, should be in keeping with the general theme that the wedding is attempting to accomplish.
Many other factors when planning the wedding will need to be taken into consideration and given full attention, from the invitations, stationary, venue, transport etc as great attention to detail, will in the long run assist in making your wedding day, one that you will look back on and cherish forever.

Stylish Bandhej Saree Style


Bandhej or Bandhani is the painting of royals – The tie-dyed fabric of Gujarat are perhaps the best bent in India. Also recognized as Bandhej.Bandhni sarees are created by dyeing the cloth in such a manner that a lot of small resist-dyed ‘spots’ produce elaborate patterns over the fabric. The usual bandhani saree market has shrunk however, because of the rise of low-cost silk-screened imitations and most modern bandhani sarees are made with larger design and fewer ties than in the past.
There are varieties of bandhej  saree available  in two contrasting colors, with borders, end-pieces and one or more large central medallion called a pomcha or padma (lotus flower). Red and black is the most general color combination but other pairs of colors are also found. For instance, the panetar saree is a Gujarati-Hindu saree of satin weave and Gajji silk with red borders, central medallion and a white body, which may contain regularly spaced red tie-dyed spots.

Bandhni was introduced in Jamnagar when the city was founded 400 years ago. This city has now become one of the chief centers of bandhni, creating new pattern and experimenting with modern colors.
The earliest reference to bandheni is in Bana Bhatt’s Harshacharita, where he describes a royal wedding, “the old matrons were skilled in many sorts of textile patterning, some of which were in the process of being tied (bandhya mana)”. This material was used to make the skirts for women. Abandhoni garment was careful auspicious for the bride. One also finds the maids in the Ajanta wall paintings wearing blouses of tie and dye patterns. Another type of tie and die sari is shibori sari.

TIE AND DYE TODAY :
Today women and girls can be seen sitting in their homes with pieces of malmal (fine muslin), handloom or silk cloth. This cloth is first bleached and then folded into two or four layers depending on the width of the cloth. A rangara or designer marks the layout of the pattern on the material using wooden blocks dipped in geru, a burnt sienna color mixed with water. The craftsmen then begin to tie the cloth, which is not to be dyed. The folds of the material within the small motif are lifted and tied together. The material with the first set of ties is dyed yellow.
RAW MATERIALS NEEDED :
The raw materials obligatory for bandhni sarees (tie & die saree) are – muslin, handloom or silk cloth, ordinary thread for tying, starch and colors for dyeing. Traditionally vegetable dyes were used but today chemical dyes are becoming very popular. The tools required are also very basic – wooden blocks for marking designs and the simple implements for dyeing.
