			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is one of our first posts and a happy announcement of the arrival of our Autumn 2012 bridal, bridesmaid, and mother of the bride gowns. Please read on to see a selection of the new season collection. Follow the link on the dress to visit it on venusbridaluk.com.</p>
<h3>Venus Woman</h3>
<p>In the <a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/venus-woman-wedding-dresses-5.dhtml">Venus Woman</a> collection, this beautiful chiffon gown, WF2201, is Grecian inspired with bead spaghetti halter straps and chapel train.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/venus-woman-wedding-dresses-vw8659-885.phtml"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-81" title="WF2201" src="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/VW86592-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>With its feminine cut and soft chiffon fabric flattering all figure types, we think it simply oozes informal style.</p>
<h3>Venus</h3>
<p>In the <a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/venus-wedding-dresses-2.dhtml">Venus</a> collection there are five new gowns, and four <a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/exclusive-venus-wedding-dresses-2.dhtml"> Venus Exclusive</a> gowns; including this stunning wedding dress VF2188.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/venus-wedding-dresses-ve8112-867.phtml"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-83" title="VF2188" src="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/VE81122-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>The elegant and beautiful asymmetric dress is also versatile, as it includes a removable lace bodice. The strapless gown has a wonderful fairytale gathered skirt.</p>
<h3>Pallas Athena</h3>
<p>In our <a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/pallas-athena-wedding-dresses-3.dhtml">Pallas Athena</a> collection is PF2159, a stylish and modern strapless fitted rouched gown decorated with a beaded trim design on the waist.</p>
<p><a style="font-style: normal; line-height: 24px; text-decoration: underline;" href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/pallas-athena-wedding-dresses-pa9058-863.phtml"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-87" style="border-color: #bbbbbb; background-color: #eeeeee;" title="PF2159" src="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/PA90582-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3>Informals</h3>
<p>There are twelve new wedding dresses in the <a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/informals-wedding-dresses-6.dhtml">Informals</a> range, such as NF2147, a simple and elegant gown with a V neckline and tank style bodice with chiffon detailing and wide back straps.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/informals-wedding-dresses-vn6748-879.phtml"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-89" title="NF2147" src="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/VN6748-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3>Angel and Tradition</h3>
<p>AF2027 is a timeless and beautiful example in our <a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/angel-and-tradition-wedding-dresses-4.dhtml">Angel and Tradition</a> wedding dress collection. Its strapless design has a slightly dipped and curvy neckline. Created with lace and chiffon, the dropped waist of the gown is adorned with delicate flowers, and it has a chapel train.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/angel-and-tradition-wedding-dresses-at4521-836.phtml"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-91" title="AF2027" src="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/AT4521-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3>Bella Maids</h3>
<p>We have eleven new <a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/bella-maids-bridesmaids-dresses-7.dhtml">Bella Maids</a> dresses including stunning MF2128, a one shoulder chiffon gown featuring a beaded appliqué.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/bella-maids-bridesmaids-dresses-bm1525-841.phtml"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-92" title="MF2128" src="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/BM1525-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3>Mother of the Bride</h3>
<p>Finally there are eight new <a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/mothers-bridalwear-12.dhtml">Mother of the Bride</a> gowns in the collection, like this gorgeous layered MBF2106 mother of the bride dress.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/mothers-bridalwear-mb2174-857.phtml"><img class="alignnone  wp-image-93" title="MBF2106" src="http://www.venusbridaluk.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/MB2174-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of our customers recently sent us this story of their experience at Venus Bridal&#8217;s 25th Anniversary celebration.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was with great pleasure that I was invited along to celebrate the Venus Bridal 25th Anniversary combined with the launch of their 2010 collections, in Los Angeles. The week began with a traditional Chinese lunch for all of the Worldwide sales team and the UK and Ireland customers. From there on it was a whirlwind of engagements culminating in the official celebrations at The Pechanga Casino and Spa Resort at Temecula, California. And what a wonderful location to be in. This reserve is steeped in history.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;To the Pechanga people their land, and The Great Oak that stands upon it, carry meaning that transcends physical presence. The Great Oak, on the land, has come to embody the identity and character of the Pechanga Band: Strength, wisdom, longevity and determination. These four qualities are synonymous with Venus Bridal. </p>
<p>Venus have a great strength in the world markets backed up by the fact that they have their very own factory in which they make their garments. They do not outsource any part of their operation. Wisdom, in how they run their operations smoothly with a great customer service team back up in Los Angeles, and a great design team that can easily pull together designs that make them market leaders. Longevity proven by the fact that they are celebrating 25 years of successful business and determination to ride out this recession and emerge healthy and in front.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The 2010 collection is an amazing collection right across the board with sumptuous Satin, flowing Chiffon and exquisite laces.&#8221;</p>
