Fabulous - Angela's Wedding Disaster
The Basics
Fabulous - Angela's Wedding Disaster is a time management game made by the creators of the Delicious game series, and the game play is exactly the same except that Angela (Emily's sister) works in the fashion industry instead of in a restaurant. If you've played the Fabulous or Delicious games, you'll have no problem picking up this game. If not, you'll want to play the excellent tutorial at the beginning of the first level.
Customers order and pay for products. When a customer is waiting to pay you will see an image of bills and coins. The higher the customer happiness, the greater the price paid. Unfortunately, the customers don't have happiness levels shown by a number of hearts next to them as many other games do, so you have to pay attention to customer facial expressions and the amount they are going to pay to know how they are feeling. Customers with three coins next to the money stack are ecstatic and are paying the highest amount. When a customer becomes mad, no coins will be beside the money. A very angry customer will have a thunder cloud beside their head.
Doing the same action twice or three times in a row (combo) will help you achieve higher scores.
Combos can be earned by having two or three orders prepared on your tray, and serving them to the customers without an interruption to do another task. If you serve two in a row, you get a "smart" or "fancy" bonus of +10 and a "stylish" bonus of +15 for three customers in a row. Checking out two in a row gets a "cool" bonus of +15; three in a row will gain a "stunning" bonus of +30; four in a row gets a "amazing/beautiful" bonus of +45; five in a row gets a "fabulous" bonus of +60. Checking out six in a row gets the "fabulicious" bonus.
Clean two stations in a row for a "sharp" bonus of +10; cleaning three in a row earns a "sparkling" bonus of +15; cleaning four in a row gives you a "wonderful" bonus of +20; five or six in row gives a "perfect" bonus of +25.
Tip: If you have an assistant, she will get the bonus as well, IF Angela doesn't do anything in between you giving the orders for cleaning.
You will earn a "nice" bonus of +10 for serving a complete order of two or three products to a customer.
There is also a "spotless" bonus of +25 that can be earned at the end of the level for each clean station.

How to remove an product from your tray, If you make a mistake and put something on your tray that you don't need, click on it and it will be removed from the tray.
Most days have events/challenges, which are actually tasks that need to be performed. Completing these will give extra points to your score. You don't have to complete the task to finish the level.
Some actions now have mini games, which will require you to click or slide the mouse.
Trophies are called "achievements" and are earned in the form of items in Angela's sketchbook. Many of the trophies will be earned just by playing through the game.
To earn Beautiful Bouquet and earn 150 diamonds, you will have to play some of the daily challenges, or play levels over again to earn coins to purchase the diamonds.
To earn Glowing Garment by earning three stars on each level is pretty much impossible due to the "intelligent design" of the game. (See "a note about game difficulty" below.)
For Fancy Feather, you will need to replay levels in order to earn enough money to buy all the upgrades.
Diamonds
Diamonds are earned by completing events and challenges. They are used to buy fashions for the models. You will earn an achievement for having earned (or bought) a total of 150 diamonds. You can purchase them using coins, as well as earn them through the regular game or the daily endless challenges.
The upgrade screen is shown between scenes. In it, you can buy upgrades for the current chapter. (Each chapter has it's own upgrade shop.)
Tip: The first chapter can be completed without upgrades. Save your money for the second chapter and you can buy all the upgrades at the beginning.
To buy all the upgrades, you'll have to replay several chapters to earn enough money.
