Over the next couple of weeks, I will attempt to repost the lost blogs so brides can enjoy them once again. Indulge!

Minneapolis, Minnesota; Tel #612-375-2162. View the latest designs from my two brands: Christina Garcia Accessories of Distinction and Christina Garcia Green Label. I would love to meet with you to discuss customization options. The trunk show will be done vis-a-vis Adele Wechsler whose gowns are synonymous with eco-couture.

What’s more, purchasing a headpiece or veil from Christina Garcia Green Label plants a tree in the Atlantic Forrest. Perfect for the bride who has promised to love and cherish…her planet. Indulge!
