Do any of you guys ever just want to go on and on about something for no reason other than it’s on your mind? I’m like that all the time!

I am be extremely uninteresting and I don’t have many interests, but I can ramble on about everything and anything. I just keep going over a thought and bring it into a plan and then consider if I could make it happen or not. Like right now I’m thinking of the future and a future career plan.

I like the idea of having my own bridal shop or opening a wedding planning business as I adore weddings. I love the idea of knowing that I get to spend my time in around blushing brides, and bridzilla’s as well as bridesmaids, mother of the brides and even the flower girls.

So since I finally have access to the internet while at work (yay!) I decided to do some research on it and then thought I’d share it with you guys, as well as any thoughts I’d been having.

My main thought automatically went to what I’d call it. I had a few really bad ideas first, as I attempted a rhyming name and an even worse one when I tried out names such as Brides ‘R’ Us, which is the best of a horrible bunch. I then used inspiration from the shops near me, both of which have lovely names – Ivory Bridal and Star Tiara Bridal Wear. I even used inspiration from wedding vows, such as To Have and To Hold and Forever and Always Bridal. Both of which aren’t to bad, but could be rather cheesy.

Once I narrowed down my ideas, I did a quick Google search to make sure neither are an official brand. Neither of them are; but there are other shops with the same names, thankfully however they aren’t in the same area.

Next I wanted to fully consider the sizes and styles I’d offer. I myself am classed as “plus sized” and “a larger woman” so I know how difficult it can be to buy clothes in general, let alone a wedding dress! So if I did open a bridal shop, I’d stock as many sizes as I could. This led to me spending a long time googling if this was a common thing and it isn’t.

After I left work I drove over to Asda, so I could pick up a bridal magazine. I think unlike most of my insane thoughts this will be one I’ll follow-up on. I always did like the thought of being my own boss, running my own business and running a business the way I want to.

Do any of you have ideas like this? Have any of you followed through and they’ve worked out well? Leave a comment down below and tell me about them! Even if you didn’t, still let me know! It could be an awesome conversation starter!
