Have you given thought as to how to choose a wedding perfume? My Grandmother was a woman who loved fragrances and underscored the importance of choosing the right perfumes for your wedding day. She wasn't rich but I remember her giving short lectures in the house with my many aunts as her audience on the importance of smelling good - apart from looking good - on your big day, and the rest of your life as a woman. "You have to be beautiful and don't let yourself go by being a poorly-dressed, awful-smelling wife," she would say. Learning a lesson or two from her, here is my list of seven amazing perfumes for your wedding day that you might want to try out:

This perfume promises the smell of a new morning and it doesn't disappoint. L.I.L.Y stands for "Linda, I Love You," Stella's Dad's nickname for her Mom. It's a fragrance that brings with it history, art, and chemistry and so wearing it is like being part of a grandiose mix of arts and sciences. The name itself strongly points to love, so why not spray some of it on your big day?

When none of the above perfumes matter to you, go ahead and run to the classic: Chanel No. 5. My Mom describes this as the ultimate standard of female perfumes. When you wear Chanel No. 5, nothing can go wrong. Marilyn Monroe is your witness.
