Blake Julian and His Bride-to-be Holly Durst Modeling a Sash From The House of Bachelorette

It’s been a pretty great couple of months for reality TV star Holly Durst. Not only did she meet her hunky new finance Blake Julian and get engaged in front of millions of people, but she also won $125,000 on the Bachelor Pad finale. The House of Bachelorette caught up with Holly last week at a benefit for Water of Life, a non-profit digging wells in Third World countries.

Of course since we knew we were going to be meeting up with one of the hottest couples in reality TV right now, we wanted to give Holly a little engagement gift. We packed one of our popular bride totes full of fun stuff including a feather boa, the Perfect Bride To Be Tiara and a white Bride Tank.  She loved her Super Bling Sash so much she even modeled it for us! These are a brand new item for The House of Bachelorette and we were excited Holly was one of the first to wear this fun accessory!

Holly and her fiance Blake Julian are now calling Greenville, South Carolina home. Blake is opening up a new dental practice this week and Holly is putting the finishing touches on her children’s book Chocolate Socks. They haven’t announced a wedding date yet but we wish them the best! And we bet Holly’s bachelorette party will be a night to remember!

People Magazine Kim Kardashian Controversy

Tuesday, August 30th, 2011

Kim K People CoverKim Kardashian walked down the aisle earlier this month and said “I do” to Kris Humphries. People magazine paid big bucks for the exclusive wedding photos, but it turned out they weren’t that interested in the happy couple– they were mainly focused on Kim K. The magazine left the groom off the cover and some sources say Kim is upset about having the spotlight to herself.

Reports say that Kim is worried the snub will offend her in-laws. And every bride knows that can be a big concern with a new marriage. People paid $1.5 million for the pictures, according to sources, so maybe they deserve to do whatever they want with the photos. But maybe stories saying that Kim was upset were blown out of proportion. The NYPost reported that Kim’s rep explained: “Kim of course wanted Kris to be on the cover, but it was People’s decision…everyone, including Kris understood…No one is upset.”

Kate Middleton’s Guide for Having a Super Secret Bachelorette Party

Tuesday, March 29th, 2011

In exactly one month Kate Middleton and Prince William will become husband and wife in the royal wedding of the century. Kate is becoming a pro at keeping things secret surrounding the wedding. If you like the idea of keeping your bachelorette party hush hush, just take a cue from bride-to-be Kate Middleton’s sister Pippa.

According to UK’s Daily Mail the bride’s younger sister and maid of honor Pippa Middleton is in charge of planning the “hen party” which is the UK version of a bachelorette party. She’s planning one party in London and another “Dirty Dancing” themed party at the Middleton home in Bucklebury, Berkshire.

In order to keep the London party under wraps, Pippa has booked four different venues. That way no one will know where the party is until the actual night of the event. “None of the girls know where they will be going – and won’t until the actual day,” a source tells the paper.

Reese Witherspoon’s Bachelorette Party

Friday, March 18th, 2011

Reese Witherspoon and her fiance Jim Toth are supposedly getting married in just a few days– March 26th to be exact. It’s a southern-themed wedding according to Hollywood insiders. There will be about 100 guests showing up to Reese’s estate in Ojai Valley, California. We thought it would be fun to plan Reese’s bachelorette party. So here are some of our suggestions for this beautiful, sweet starlet.

We can’t help but think of Reese as a delicate, girly girl. So that’s why we think this Engaged Headband/Veil from The House of Bachelorette’s classy bride collection would be ideal for her bachelorette bash. It’s currently on sale for $9.99.

And because whoever said orange was the new pink is seriously disturbed, we’ve got the classic pink marabou boa. It’s just $1.99 and perfect for a fun night in LA with the girls.

Reese really can’t go wrong with feathers, so we think she should add a few more to her bachelorette ensemble with the feather bracelet, just $1.99.

This bride tote seems to have a little touch of southern charm. It’s springy, sweet and practical, just like Reese herself. Pick one up for the bride-to-be in your life for just $24.99.

We wish Reese the best and hope her bachelorette party is a night to remember!

While most brides-to-be don’t have to worry about the paps crashing their bash, the idea of celebrating the single life at sea does sound fun!

If you want to have a bachelorette party at sea you’ll definitely want to hit up TheHouseofBachelorette.com first for some supplies. No need for the tight black dress and uncomfortable pumps– look the part with this tropical Hawaiian bra top. Grab some pink beach balls, just $1.99, to play with and pose with for great bachelorette party pictures. Give each girl their own flower hair clip, $.99, to wear during the party and as a momento for remembering your fun party at sea.

Have a Hangover Bachelorette Party

We were totally inspired by the completely creative “Hangover” themed anniversary party we saw on Hostess with the Mostess. We think this could make a truly epic bachelorette party theme! The party hosts got creative giving guests props like cutouts of Hangover characters, hospital bracelets and even blow up dice.

The great news is, pulling this off for your bachelorette party will be super easy with the help of The House of Bachelorette! Here are some must-haves for throwing the hottest Hangover-themed bachelorette party:

Kate Middleton: A Bachelorette Party Fit for a Princess

Tuesday, November 16th, 2010
Congrats on the Engagement Kate and William!

Congrats on the Engagement Kate and William!

Prince William and his new fiance Kate Middleton posed for pictures at St. James’s Palace. Middleton calls the thought of being a future queen “a daunting prospect.” Prince William popped the question in Kenya last month, slipping his mother’s oval blue sapphire on the finger of his bride-to-be.

We here at The House of Bachelorette feel for Kate Middleton. Not only is she entering a somewhat crazy family, she has the pressure of being proper and staying out of the tabloids. We think that’s the perfect reason to let her hair down at a bachelorette party fit for a princess.

Before being forced to carry the weight of a real jewel-encrusted crown, we think Kate should have some fun wearing this Bride-to-Be Pink Tiara complete with flashing lights. We’re sure the Queen wouldn’t mind one of these pink beauties for herself!

For disguising herself from the paparazzi we suggest that Kate throw on a pair of these Heart Throb Shades. No one will know a future queen is hiding under there.

There’s no doubt Kate Middleton probably has a lot of people trying to tell her what to say, how to act and what to wear she may find these Decision Dice very helpful. They’re fun, informative and extremely useful.

Our Picks for Katy Perry’s Celebrity Bachelorette Party

Thursday, March 25th, 2010
Katy Perry's Bachelorette Bash is sure to be Amazing!

Katy Perry

Katy Perry’s getting married and that means Katy Perry is getting a bachelorette bash! The celebrity rocker is reportedly saying goodbye to the single life with a wild party hosted by her best friend Rihanna. Now we trust that Rihanna can organize a pretty rockin’ party all on her own, but we wanted to offer some suggestions for the best bachelorette party accessories that will make Katy Perry’s celebration even hotter. So here are our picks for Katy Perry’s celebrity bachelorette party:

1. The GIANT Pink Bride’s Cup: Katy Perry does everything BIG. So we want to give her the GIANT Pink Bride’s Cup. It’s hot pink, covered in sparkles and makes drinking the night away even more fun.

2. The Wedding Ring Shot Glass: Seriously– is there a more fun way to take a shot? This Wedding Ring Shot Glass fits snugly onto the bride-to-be’s finger so she’s ready for a shot no matter where she is. And this accessory is only $1.19!

3. Click ‘N Strip Male Pen: Just because it’s her bachelorette party doesn’t mean Katy Perry won’t be signing autographs. That’s why we think the Click ‘N Strip Male Pen is the perfect bachelorette party accessory!

4. Handcuff Shades: Katy Perry is known for her bold sense of style so we think she would love showing off these these Handcuff Shades on her last night of being single.

5. Jackpot Bead Necklace: Since we know Katy Perry loves waking up in Vegas, we thought we’d throw a little Sin City into her bachelorette party with the Jackpot Bead Necklace. And no matter how wild Katy Perry’s bachelorette party gets, we’re sure Russell Brand will be even crazier.
