七月 20th, 2011 ok

For the ten-year-old China Wedding Expo 2011(Autumn), the ten years represent a process full of difficulty, tortuousness and joy rather than a simple time frame.

Thanks to the strong support from people from all walks of life, the biannual event organized by Shanghai International Exhibition Co., Ltd has grown rapidly, with the number of exhibitors increasing to more than 600 from previous 100 and the exhibition space expanding to 75,000 square meters from previous less than 10,000 square meters. In addition, the number of visitors hits a new record of 150,000 this year.

China Wedding Expo 2011(Autumn) will be staged from July 7-10, 2011 at three venues simultaneously: INTEX Shanghai, ShanghaiMart and Shanghai Everbright Convention & Exhibition Centre. More than 600 exhibitors will display a variety of products during the event, including wedding dresses, themed clothes, children’s photography, make-up and accessories, wedding props, backgrounds for photography studios, photo albums and frames, theme photography samples and consulting training.

The Wedding Dress, Evening Dress and Groom’s Wear exhibition zone on the 1st floor at INTEX Shanghai shows the development direction of internationalization and branding. This year’s exhibition specially invites two heavy-weight international brands–French brand Ponuptia and Malaysian brand Adore Bridal Couture.

In order to promote the development of portrait photography and be aligned with the industry’s growth trend, the exhibition area will bring together numerous high-cost, blockbuster real-life scenery themes and low-cost, high-return outdoor photography works to meet the diverse needs of the market. The event has attracted many foreign wedding photography brands and Chinese well-known photography studios, taking the quality of exhibits to a higher level, and will attach more importance to the quality of services by aggressively advancing the operation model which combines theme marketing and technical assistance, so as to boost the solid development of the industry.

With the rapid growth of the wedding photography industry, many photography studios are at a critical turning point, where they must not forget internal management and training while pursuing excellent performance.

Clothing Jokes

Well-dressed

What do you instantly know about a well-dressed man?

His wife is good at picking out clothes.

Nice Bike

Two engineering students meet on campus one day. The first engineer calls out to the other, “Hey nice bike! Where did you get it?”

“Well,” replies the other, “I was walking to class the other day when this pretty, young coed rides up on this bike. She jumps off, takes off all of her clothes, and says ‘You can have anything you want!'”

“Good choice,” says the first, “her clothes wouldn’t have fit you anyway.”

Young Woman And Her Lover

As they were walking down the street, the young woman said to her lover, “Why won’t you buy me a fur coat? I’m so cold.”

Her boyfriend sniffed, “If you knew the answer, why’d you bother asking?”

Appealing

“And if I didn’t wear a halter top and tight jeans,” asked the girl, “would you still find me appealing?”

“Let’s find out,” the man replied gamely.

Dating With Southern Girl

Dating the first southern girl he’d ever known, the Yankee was surprised when she greeted him at the door in the lowest-cut gown he’d ever seen.

“Th-that’s a lovely dress,” he stuttered, his eyes on her ample bosom. “Sho’ nough,” she replied. To which he answered, “I’ll say”.

Unique Garment

Then there was the furrier who, for a very special client, crossed a mink with a gorilla to produce a unique garment. The fur was spectacular, but, alas, the sleeves were too long.

Tight Dress

As the bus pulled up, Angie realized she was going to have a difficult time getting on. Her dress was too tight for her to step up, her hands were full of packages, and the line of people behind her did not seem to be in a charitable mood.

She realized that the best thing to do was to try to loosen her dress so, with great effort, she stretched her hand behind her and pulled the zipper down halfway. When that didn’t seem to help, she pulled it down the rest of the way.

Just then the bus pulled up and, still unable to ascend, she was both shocked and offended when a man standing behind her picked her up and put her on the bus.

Turning, she growled, “What right did you have to touch me?”

The man climbed on and said, “Well, after you pulled my fly down I kind of figured we were good friends.”

Fashion Rules Tend to Be Personal

七月 19th, 2011 ok

With more fashion images, advice and information flowing into our lives than ever before from reality television shows, grocery-store scandal sheets, online authorities and now fashion magazines, it seems preposterous that we still don’t know what to wear.

“What should I wear today?” It’s a daily quandary for nearly everyone living in modern society.

Blame the sartorial confusion on the disappearance of stringent social dress codes that were universally accepted before the counterculture revolution of the 1960s. It was then, historians say, when the rules for what to wear began to disintegrate.

Despite the lack of fashion dress codes, any fashion maven will tell you expectations still exist for attending events and happenings that often specifically call for black-tie attire, country-club casual or formal dress. Church weddings, temple services, some restaurants and private clubs still maintain dress specifications.

Gina Vernaci, vice president of theatricals for Playhouse Square, is a 27-year veteran of the organization and remembers a time when she wore a dress to a St. Louis Cardinals baseball game. “The world has changed, and we have changed; we don’t have an established dress code at the theaters anymore,” Vernaci says.

She adds that the performing arts tend to attract patrons with an affinity toward more traditional and formal dress. In fact, the best seats in the house are called the “dress circle,” a nod to a time when European royalty regularly attended the theater. “It’s called the dress circle, but there’s certainly no dictate,” says Vernaci.

With such a variety of programming at PlayhouseSquare — from rock concerts to children’s shows — there are no rules for dressing the part.

Perhaps that’s the reason that a number of local restaurants with dress codes ranging from “no tank tops or shorts” to “jacket required” declined to talk publicly about their restrictions. Few, it seems, are willing to address dress codes for fear of losing potential customers.

But over at PlayhouseSquare and Severance Hall, there’s no need to be concerned about what to wear. Jeans, shorts, tank tops — all are welcome. （From Btbone.com）

The Wedding Couple Depart in Good Humor

七月 19th, 2011 ok

Couples with theatrical streaks are making sure that their wedding receptions have big opening numbers or dramatic closers. An arrival by helicopter fueled one couple’s big moment; other newlyweds made an impression by departing on a Jet Ski and in an ice cream truck.

A crucial element is surprise, sometimes even for the bride. In May 2010, Katie and Nathan Schwarz left their church ceremony in Lorena, Tex., on an ice cream truck that had been secretly arranged for by the bride’s father, Terry Jones. “I had a dream for Katie to have a special exit from her wedding,” Mr. Jones said. “Then I discovered my friend had an ice cream truck. It was perfect since our family saying is, ‘A home without ice cream is a home without love.’ ”

Hanne and Brian Duncan of Philadelphia, fans of bicycling, met at a race, and their second date was a 60-mile ride. So it seemed fitting for them to leave their wedding last August at Village Presbyterian Church in Prairie Village, Kan., on a tandem. Guests rang bicycle bells as they rode off.

Mrs. Duncan pedaled in her billowing white gown and three-inch pink-and-orange heels. “I practiced beforehand,” she said.

Even so, part of the dress dragged and was streaked with black. “I knew that if my wedding dress didn’t show evidence of a good time,” she said, “then it wasn’t a fun wedding.”
