Will you be my Bridesmaid?

Asking a friend or relative to be your bridesmaid is your way of saying you love and value them. Ask this question with a gift they will be delighted to have, a beautiful necklace.

You would present her with a note and this necklace. When she says yes, you can tie the necklace around her neck as she makes a wish. When it falls off, her wish should come true! Not only are you honoring her with including her in your bridal party, but also (like a genie) granting her wish!

Unity Cross

The Unity Cross is a multi-piece sculpture that the bride and the groom assemble during the ceremony service. The Unity Cross is hand crafted of Wood and Stone Resin; it stands 14 inches tall and comes with a brushed Brass plate for engraving. There is also a hidden drawer in the base with a scroll of scriptures for your wedding. Once the ceremony is over with they take it home and display the unity cross in their home and show the covenant they made.


The first piece of the cross is what resembles the man. It’s the outer cross, it’s open in the middle, it’s bold, and it’s strong. The cross that resembles the bride is very intricately made, and it’s very feminine looking.


During the wedding service, whenever the pastor or person officiating the wedding starts talking about how God created man bold and strong, the groom will pick up his piece of the cross, and then he talks about how God created woman. They pick up her piece of the cross, and she inserts her piece into the middle of the man’s cross, which completes the sculpture. And then two become one. Then it’s locked together with three brass pegs and once those pegs are inserted, the pastor will say, “What God has put together let no man take apart.” And that really completes the service!

Not your traditional wedding album

When you get those incredible wedding photos back, you want to preserve and display them in the right way. It is really important to create a story time line of your wedding day. Be sure to include your dressing room photos, photos with family, parts of the ceremony reception, and plenty of the Bride and Groom after the ceremony.

Wedding album or story books come in several different styles. You can choice from a coffee book table, magazine style, wrap around cover jackets, high quality leather and stitching.

Besides your own momento your album can make great gifts or even events accessories. You can also have the option to make matching books that are smaller than a coffee table book to give out to your parents, close family members, and bridesmaids. Preserve your memories in a style of your own.

For the Eco Friendly & Multi-functional Bride

The gowns in the Morgan Boszilkov Natural Bridal Collection stand apart from other wedding dresses I’ve seen for two primary reasons: they’re eco-friendly and multifunctional. The two designs I’ve featured below are made of a hemp and silk blend; they also feature detachable tiers that allow eco-savvy brides to wear their wedding dresses again.

Each dress in the Morgan Boszilkov Natural Bridal Collection is made to order, so eco brides can have the same couture experience as they would at a traditional bridal boutique while staying true to their eco sensibilities.
