Some modest wedding dress inspiration for the ladies who are engaged, or simply for all maidens who think dressing modestly on their wedding day is not possible without looking frumpy.

Sleeping St Joseph, a devotion not many know about.
St. Joseph experiences four different dreams from God in the Gospel of Matthew. In the first dream, St. Joseph is told by an angel to continue with his plan to marry Mary, even though she has been found with child. After the birth of Jesus, St. Joseph is warned in a dream to flee with his family to Egypt. While in Egypt, St. Joseph is told in a dream to return to Israel, and then in another dream is told to go to Galilee instead of Judea.
In the words of His Holiness, Pope Francis: “I like St. Joseph very much. He’s a strong man of silence. On my desk, I have an image of St. Joseph sleeping. Even when he is asleep, he looks after the Church. Yes! We know that he can do that,” Pope Francis said during an address in the Philippines on Jan. 16, 2015. “So when I have a problem, a difficulty, I write a little note, and I put it underneath St. Joseph, so that he can dream about it! In other words, I tell him: Pray for this problem!”

I am sharing this video because I want to highlight several things:
-The beauty of a modest family dress. This bride wanted to wear her grandma's wedding dress, that was also used by her mom.
-The beauty of a traditional Catholic church. Spain and other Mediterranean countries are full of these gems, that portray superbly the beauty of Catholicism.

OCTOBER 7: HAIL MARY!
Our Lady of the Holy Rosary
---
According tradition, Mary appeared to St. Dominic during the time when he was contemplating on how to combat Albigensians and taught him how to pray the rosary. From then on, the rosary has become one of the favorite prayers in the Catholic Church. Pope Ven. Pius XII, in his "Philippinas Insulas“ (letter to the archbishop of Manila) called the rosary the “Compendium of the Gospel”: a prayer that helps us reflect on Christ’s life.
