Almighty Formula to Get That Dream Body and Astonishing Look For Your Wedding

Effective Weight loss for Brides Before The Wedding
As a bride, getting engaged and preparing for wedding in Nigeria is supposed to be one of the happiest moments in your life, but in reality, getting married is often stressful, especially when it comes to your appearance. Forget choosing the reception venue, Asoebi and preparing your guest list. For most women, the number one thing that comes into their mind after engagement is their weight, how to loose more of it – even if they are a healthy size.

I have seen some bride-to-be using extreme tactics, like skipping meals and taking unprescribed diet pills, having liposuction etc, just to look fabulous on her wedding day. These could be harmful one way or the other to your health. Instead, a healthy diet is something to consider. You will not only give your body the nourishment it needs to keep going on the big day, but a painful free experience. So let’s look at some key areas to help make all the difference.

What you eat plays a huge part in how you look. Some experts says about 80% is down to what you eat and just 20% is the exercise you do. Getting into that desired shape you must watch what you eat.
1. A good start is by reducing sugar intake. Food items with high sugar content such as cereals and sauces should be avoided, start paying attention to the labels and see for yourself. Processed food is definitely something else you should reduce or try and cut out completely.
2. Drink a lot of water. Your body needs to be hydrated in order to function properly. Water can also help you improve your skin complexion, make you appear less bloated and aid in digestion. 
3. You should also avoid indulging in late night snacks. Make sure that you stop your intake of food and drinks at least a few hours before you plan to go to bed. This will allow your body to burn off some of the calories, so they cannot remain in your system after you go to sleep, this help to prevent abdominal protrusion
4. Another factor you will have to consider is alcohol. Your consumption of alcohol is prerequisite to gaining undesirable weight.  I know we all like to have a relaxing glass of wine (or three) after work but if you’ve done a deal with your dressmaker and want to stick to the plan then I suggest you lay off the glasses.  Did you know each glass of wine contains around 185 calories.  That’s the equivalent of a slice of chocolate cake and imagine how many calories you will ingest when you take more glasses.

So now you know a word is enough for the wise

The Connotation and Evolution of Wearing White Wedding Gowns

White wedding dress is obviously the most popular bridal outfit today. If I may ask why is it so? From feed back I got on my questionnaires I posted online, 90% says that white wedding dress stands for purity, therefore the bride is believed to be pure and piety. If that is the case most brides today shouldn’t wear white for their wedding – many of them are morally tainted to wear white for their wedding. Contrary to what most people believe, white wedding dress does not depict virginity or purity but wealth.

Today weddings symbolize love and commitment between the bride and the groom till death do part, these wasn’t the case back then, at the Middle Ages weddings were more like a business deal in which two families joined forces for a beneficial arrangement or alliance. Many weddings were more a matter of politics than love, particularly among the nobility and the higher social classes. Therefore, brides are expected to dress in a manner that speaks well of her family, they represent the family during the ceremony. Brides from wealthy families often wore rich colors like white. White dresses were exclusively for the rich and wealthy because of maintenance. 
In the middle Ages, brides rarely shop for dress specifically for their wedding day. The bride would typically wear her finest dress to the ceremony, even if it was a dark color. In fact, many brides wore black during this time. Only a few colors were avoided, such as green, which was then considered unlucky. Blue was a popular choice as it represented purity, faithfulness and a connection to the Virgin Mary, plus the dark color easily hid stains and imperfections and could be worn again.
How wearing of white wedding gowns started


The origin of white wedding dress can be trace back to Queen Victoria of England; she was the first to wear a white dress for her wedding when she got married her cousin Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg in 1840. White was not chosen for a wedding dress but blue and other colours, she broke these traditions by wearing a white dress on her wearing day. She was also the first royal bride to have bridesmaids carry her train. Surprisingly, she didn’t wear it to symbolize purity or virginity. She just wore it because, she liked white. 
Decade after the wedding, Godey’s Lady’s Book, with the sentimental statement “ It is an emblem of the purity and innocence of girlhood, and the unsullied heart she now yields to the chosen one,” declared that white was the most fitting color for a bride. This was what inspired the connotations of virginity and purity attached to white wedding dress as we all know today.

Hope you find this educative as much as I do
