Riga Wedding Expo 2020
Your special event with a magic dress!
Beginning!
For several years, having observed the fantastic creations of world fashion designers, I was greatly inspired by every detail in the women's dress, emphasizing every aspect of feminine beauty. In their hands, a woman's charm is transformed into a real work of art. Wedding dresses and evening gowns are made with special chic. If in one season their silhouette is smooth and gentle, another season comes with lace and sex appeal. I wished to bring at least a little of this beauty to Latvia.
The assortment of women's garments in Latvia is quite rich with a vast choice of dresses and gowns for weddings and evening events. And yet I still continued to search for new, inspiring fashions, colours and formal elegance. My ideas and dreams were sent to the Universe and obviously heard and responded to. I found excellent cooperation partners and opportunities to implement my ideas in Latvia. Of course, this is just the beginning, and we are in the process of making it easy for our ladies to purchase their dream gowns from us. The dresses are top quality, made with loving hands and every woman will find a dress most suited for her. The vast range of colours and models is breathtaking when you see happiness in the eyes of their owners and feel gratified of the result of your efforts.
May your heart beat and eyes shine with happiness while your soul be full of joy when you put on our dress!
Lovingly yours,
Magical Beauty
Wedding - the good words!

Customs and Rites
The Meaning of Customs and Rites
A
specific community accumulates a certain amount of beliefs, habits and
activities and hands it down from generation to generation. The customs are the part of the immaterial
cultural heritage and in the ever-changing world they, too, are being transformed
or presented in a modern version. Generally, the purpose of a ritual is to
create a vivid, memorable picture of a wedding ceremony in the people’s minds
and to make the newlyweds realize the importance of this event and its impact
on their future life as a young family and the duty of mutual faith and support
through joys and hardships that they undertake by their wedding vows. The
importance of a strong family as the society’s cornerstone was understood by
people in the old times and stable traditions were seen as particularly
necessary in human relationship and family matters. Over the years, in each family there
evolves a custom that is typical of this family and is carried on from one
generation to another.
One example of a Latvian wedding ritual performed in almost every wedding celebration attended by a vaster number of friends and relatives is mičošana, which means removing the bride’s headdress and putting on a wife’s bonnet (Latvian - mice, aube). The ritual takes place at midnight with folksongs, and the bride symbolically parts with her girlish days among her friends and enters the life of a married woman. The young husband, too, undergoes a similar ritual. Both newlyweds receive various tools and instructions for their married life. Now this ritual is often performed after the official wedding ceremony and its elements can be adapted to the occasion.
Deciding Upon the Use of Rites in a Wedding or Christening Ceremony
The choice of rites in wedding and christening ceremonies always depend on the beliefs and tastes of their participants. There are young couples wishing to follow the traditional rites, yet in a somewhat more modern form, avoiding the archaic element in them. Other couples and their parents do not feel the need for a traditional ritual at all. Nevertheless, it should be remembered that the wedding day is the beginning of a new and significant period in the newlyweds’ life, which we can further emphasise with the best intentions and wishes creating the firm basis for our mutual life in the most acceptable way, be it a traditional ritual or the activity of our own choice.
Similarly, in the christening
ceremony with the folk or family rituals best wishes are extended to the child
– happiness, lack of hardships, protection against evil and envy. However, the
most important are the parent’s own intentions and wishes for their child that
will accompany him or her throughout their life. It is the parents’ love and
dedication to their child that will form the child’s self-perception,
understanding of the family values, the world around and the attitude to
oneself and other people.
