David TuteraThey say everything has it's season... But with my next bride, Quiana, her wedding turned out to be so fantastic, it had to have TWO!

When Quiana and I met, she showed me a smattering of decorations she had been collecting from the craft store that represented a winter-themed wedding... right down to the ornament favors and "ice blue" bridesmaids dresses. Now I love a winter wedding, but there was one "abominable" problem: Quiana's wedding was actually going to take place right smack in the middle of spring!

How would I work the seasonal spirit into a concept that would give Quiana what she wanted AND fit with the time of year in just three weeks? I had to pull out all the stops...and finally, after some trips to some of my best vendors with Quiana (and a whole lot of spring-time surprises), things started to fall into the right place and time... Stay tuned to see if Quiana got her winter wonderland, her spring celebration...or both!

I am already married in a small church in Reno, nv. My dress was only 13 dollars so that could tell you about the Budget that we had. But I thought maybe some one else could you my the wedding of my dreams. "A Wedding for all Seasons. Star with summer and end with winter while walking down the isle. Beutiul flowers and trinkets for the seasons. And when they kiss a bag of snow flakes fall down on them. To me it reprents a life time together through each year and each season. I am not sure you have ever done that.

I wish we had someone like you here.. Sadly, in Fairbanks, we have no cake shops besides the grocery stores.. I am taking decorating classes.

I have to admit that I was crying as well after tonights show...as Quiana said, I Love It. This is your best show WeTv because David is on point with each of his brides. This episode was helpful for me because I am trying to bring in spring colors for my wedding on Valentines Day 2010, which is hard when people look at you like you're crazy. I really enjoyed the way he pulled in Quiana's winter idea as an evolution into spring. If David wants to reinvision in Maryland I can get in line =)

Yesterday watching the winter wonderland/spring celebration, it was beautiful. I liked the idea that David takes your dream and take to the highest level imagine. I love the fact that he warm, caring, understanding, and he really listens to your needs as a BRIDE....This is the best one I've seen so far. I'm getting married soon (11/20/2010) and he inspires me to give more to my wedding... I learned about how a BRIDE should conduct herself on her wedding day.... I WOULD LOVE FOR DAVID TO HELP ME AND GIVE ME IDEAS FOR MY FAIRYTALE WEDDING......Keep up the awesome work...Hope to hear for you soon.....

What is the name of the store where David acquired the bridesmaid's dresses for Quianna's wedding. My husband and I are palnning to renew our wedding vows in 2012 to celebrate our 20th anniversary. I want to do things on an over the top grand scale which is why I have begun to research vendors. Those dresses were exactly what I am looking for considering the varried ages and body types of my attendants (my daughters,27 & 37; my sisters-in-law,60 & 40; and my two best friends, 44 & 40). After our blessings after hurricane Katrina, we all are back in our own homes, working in and for our city, we all want to celebrate our family and family of friends and I cat think of a better occasion. Thank you for your help.

Ccarrsdsu,
Thank you for your question! The designer of Quiana's multi-style changeable bridesmaids dresses is Two Birds Bridesmaids. I highly recommend-- they are fantastic and the dresses are perfect for every body type and every personality. Visit them at www.twobirdsbridesmaids.com.

Hi Melanie,
The show's music during Quiana's ceremony was created just for that moment by the our music (soundtrack) department. Quiana actually walked down the aisle to the beautiful song "Giving Myself" by Jennifer Hudson (one of my favorite artists). There was not a dry eye in the house! As you pick your ceremony music, choose a song that moves you and further helps you tell your wedding story.

Hi David, I love your show and you never fail to amaze me.I was watching Quiana's wedding and mind you I love what you did,It was breathtaking. However I was disappointed when you shot down the grocery store Flower shop! I work for a major Chain and we have Three designers and we do beautiful work. We have done very beautiful Weddings and continue to do so. I do think Your have more floral shops and wholesalers who can provide you with your beautiful arrangements. I would just like you to know that if you came to our town and needed us to do your flowers we woulod bend over backwards to just what you requested and I think you would be amazed!! Thank you for your time, Foreverdiamonds

Hello David, I would love to know what you had selected to put in her bouquet? It wasn't the one she chose the feathered one had caught my eye and I can't get it out of my head!

Thank you so much,

I just want to say that I love love love David Tutera and My Fair Wedding! I soooo wish I had him for my wedding - but that was 30 years ago this year!! He makes such great decisions for the brides and his style and ideas for the venues are FABULOUS! I'm brought to tears with almost every show I watch. Keep up the good work David. (maybe when my daughters get married you can assist them!)

David,

My daughter is getting married in January 2010. I am event planner so we have worked hard to getting everything in order for her wedding.

Just last week we found out our florest QUIT so we are starting over.

My daughter and I were watching Quiana's wedding today and loved the brides bouquet with the white feathery accents and the large white flowers. Can you please share with us the name of that beautiful large flower.

Maybe loosing our florest won't be such a bad!!

Thanks so much for all of your beautiful ideas!

The amount of love and attention you show these brides is inspirational!

David,

Throughout this show I was wondering how was he going to take us from winter in wonderland to Spring. OMG!!!!! You totally knocked it out of the ball park. The table Linens were my favorite, very different, very fun, vibrant full of color! Quiana had a glow about her that was out of this world. My current boyfriend and I are talking about getting married soon...Just because of you I told him it had to be in NEW YORK. I love your show and I'm looking forward to another season where you make dreams come true.

David is beyond amazing. He's an Angel and truly cares about his brides. There's nothing for "show" here. This man is the most sincere and genuine person you will ever find in this business and I couldn't have imagined a better person putting together my sister's wedding.

And please believe when i make that trip down the aisle, I already know who i want by my side :)

I have watched this episode 2 times and need to watch it a third time just to find out the name of the bakery. My godchild is getting married in Oct 2010 and she wants a wedding around halloween, not with the gouls and goblins but since it is both the bride and grooms favorate holiday and since they are getting married on Oct 30th -- they want the fall colors with no floral centerpieces and halloween colors . I am a bit concerned we may make it tacky instead of elegant. For instance -- she saw snow globes in the dollar store -- she wants to use them as name cards, the wedding cake is Nightmare before Christmas. I took her to a florest to look at options for the centerpieces and I think we are looking at twigs -- that too is a bit scary -- dont want them to look tacky. Any suggestions would be gretly appreciated. I am in Central New Jersey.

Thanks all

Hi, David -- What fun you create on your shows!! I really enjoyed this episode.

I have a challenge for you. :)

My boyfriend and I are discussing marriage (summer 2010-ish?), and of course, I've been collecting ideas for a dream wedding for a few months now! My challenge is with colors.

Everyone knows my favorite color is purple. He loves yellow. He has been a part of a fraternity since college whose colors are black & gold/yellow. I thought to pull together the purple and yellow -- BUT that is another fraternity's colors (which may be a little taboo)!!

We are very different -- he's African-American, my family's Caribbean-English-American. I thought to bring in a black & white color theme as well (to play on our cultural differences and since culture and heritage is very important to both of us) -- makes things simple and clean.

What are your thoughts or ideas for emphasizing our different worlds (mine purple, his yellow/gold), and emphasizing our differences coming together (without being taboo -- or anal -- and on a budget)?

Interested in your thoughts! Thanks for considering.

David,

I love Christmas and my fiance' wants our wedding to be in July. I was wondering if a "Christmas in July" themed wedding would be ok. I really have no clue what to do. My mother passed away a few months ago so I'm planning mostly everything myself. I had no clue what my friend was saying about the candle ceremony. I am so lost!!! I think I am beyond needing help, lol. But I try to watch your show to get some tips and I am still lost. The only thing I've done is get my dress. I hope you can help me. My email is jennybug912@yahoo.com, my phone is 606-356-0331.

Thank you so much!!
Jen Arrington
