TY is a company that makes a variety of beanie babies and teddies, and have been doing so for many years. They have a wide range to choose from, so there is something for everybody. One of these is Bride the Bear.
Bride is called Bride for a reason - indeed, she is a bride! She is one of a few bears which symbolise weddings, the lead female role in particular. I think it's quite a cute name, but since there are a few different bears named Bride, I do think they could have been a bit more creative.
Despite a slightly basic name, Bride certainly looks amaing! Her fur is a clean white colour with bits of shiny sparkles all through it. On her head is a sparkly crown with a veil attatched. To top off her outfit she has accessorised, with a sparkling necklace to match, and a little flower on her wrist. She looks ready for the wedding, that's for sure!
To the touch, Bride is incredibly soft. Her fur is silky too, the sort that goes a shade darker if you rub it backwards. Her crown and necklace is a little rougher though, adding to the effect of the sparkles. And her veil is made from a net, so can be ripped easily if you are not careful and do not take proper care of Bride.
If Bride gets dirty I would suggest you hand wash her. Not only is her veil delicate, but she has beans inside of her. If you were to rip open then there would be a very messy, if not broken, washing machine! Also, her fur may not dry as well if she is drenched, so a gentle little scrub on the dirty patches is a much safer and kinder option.
Bride is retired. This means that TY have stopped manufacturing and selling her. However if you desparately wanted her you may be able to find her on auction sites such as eBay or in car boot sales. However that does mean no price is guaranteed - she may be expensive as some will see her as an antique, but she may be cheap since she is quite old.
Bride is a very attractive bear and makes a great gift for anybodyy in your life who is getting married or simply loves TY beanies! She is not to be missed from your collection!
