Blogger Mrs. Hot Cocoa from Weddingbee.com Says 'I Do!'

We are thrilled that Mrs. Hot Cocoa, the always entertaining and fiercely articulate wedding blogger on the popular site Weddingbee.com, donned our fab Monique Lhuillier 'Mona Lisa' gown during her lux nuptials held in Marina del Rey, California. Like we always tell our brides, finding the gown is just like finding the guy - it only takes one! And as the saying always goes, when you know, you just know.

Mrs. Hot Cocoa shares her journey to the dress, navigating the online resale segment, and ultimately finding The One on her Weddingbee blog. Take the time to stop by and view her great DIY inspirations. Now that the dust is settling on their newlywed status, let's raise a toast to the happy couple!

More Photos of the Latest DBLA Bride!






We loved looking at Heather Hyde's photos from her recent walk down the aisle this past Memorial Day weekend (sigh). She wowed her guests and groom in our Jim Hjelm 'JH8903' gown, straight off of the 2009 runway. It's easy to see that she wore the dress, and the dress did not wear her. It was perfect for their intimate garden ceremony and reception at The Inn at the Seventh Ray nestled in Topanga Canyon. Let's raise our glasses to the newlyweds!
