There’s something so powerful about creating—about pouring your heart into something that’s uniquely yours. 🩷 For me, painting has been that source of peace and joy. 🎨 What’s yours? Whatever it is, hold onto it tightly.

Paulina Porizkova is celebrating her son Jonathan's wedding — and the sweet nod to his parents that he included in his special day.
Jonathan Ocasek — the 30-year-old son of Porizkova and the late vocalist of The Cars, Ric Ocasek — wed longtime partner Erin Kim on Oct. 11 in New York City after meeting a decade prior.

Jonathan's supermodel mom, 59, revealed in a heartfelt Instagram post on Friday, Oct. 25, that her son and Erin chose to share their "first dance" as a married couple to Ric's 1986 solo hit "Emotion in Motion" — a track which was written about Porizkova.
"In the setting of their dreams at the Rainbow Room, they took to the dance floor for their first dance as a married couple. When the opening chords of the song began, not a dry eye was to be found among our 130 guests of friends and family," Porizkova wrote. "They chose a song Jonathan’s father he had written for me when our romance began: 'Emotion in Motion.' "

Randy Fenolis top wedding dress tips

1. Know your budget.
Know the most that you're willing to spend before you even step foot into a salon. Inflating your budget and putting everyone on the spot will just leave you empty-handed. One bride from our Say Yes episode, Julie, made the assumption that her father would pay for any dress she chose. She selected a gorgeous $7,000 Lazaro gown, but Dad refused to pay for it. Heartbroken, she turned to Randy for help, and lucky for her, he found a suitable replacement. Good bridal stores will ask in advance what your budget is, but if they don't, make sure that you let them know.

2. It's OK to love the first dress.
Randy sees this happen all the time. He tells brides that if they trust themselves, everyone else will fall in love with that first dress, too. A great bridal consultant will place you in a dress that accentuates your best features. You'll know that a gown is "The One" when you compare every other one to it.

3. Know your silhouette.
Trying on the wrong silhouette can cause any bride to be discouraged. Wedding gowns look different on models in a magazine than they do on real brides, so go with what's most flattering for you. One bride, Kate, had an amazing curvy figure. She considered a fit-and-flare gown, but it made her hips look too wide. Instead, Randy pulled a fabulous silk gown with an Empire waist. It gave her some forgiveness in the hip, but still created that princess look she secretly wanted. It was just perfect!

4. Be open to alterations.
I would argue that many brides aren't informed enough when it comes to their alterations. Include the cost in your total budget and keep in mind that the dress you select will evolve dramatically from start to finish. I always say that a bride falls deeper in love with her gown the closer that it is to completion. There's many steps throughout the process: the initial "yes!" moment, the day it comes into the store, the first fitting, and then the finished creation.

5. Be open to different styles.
I can't tell you how many times a bride comes in for her first fitting, and says, "I would have never pulled this dress off the hanger, but you insisted, and I finally listened." Even with years of experience, it's always a challenge to help brides get to that "aha" moment. Keep your mind open, and you just might surprise yourself.

Bouquet Baskets

One of the more practical yet unique trends for 2025 is the use of bouquet baskets. These baskets not only offer a unique way to carry flowers but also add a rustic touch to the ceremony.
Bouquet baskets are easier to handle and can be repurposed as home decor after the wedding. This trend is also catching on in everyday floral gifts, making it a versatile option for any occasion.
