Bridesmaids

Loveddd this color. Especially after seeing it in person! (DB Sangria) It's perfect for my late summer wedding! Now I am letting my girls get their own styles as I feel everyone looks stunning in something different. Hopefully will soon be making them some pearl necklaces to go with the dresses. (:

My Shoes

Sooo excited about these. Found them after a few months of searching and they are dyeable which is perfect since I don't want the typical white shoe! I am wanting to get them dyed in the same color as the bm dresses to add a little flare under my gown.

My shoes are in! And these pictures definately don't do them justice! They look even prettier than I had expected!

This is the one my mother in law found! I love it! Crossing fingers that it will be "the one" lol!

New Orleans Second Line Umbrella

Trust me as soon as I get one all picked out and ordered the picture will be up! After that inspiration from my manager about bringing New Orleans to our wedding I couldn't help but start searching for the perfect bridal accessory. The Second Line Umbrella. (:
This by far is one of my favorite parts of my wedding day (along with my purple shoes)!

Ok Ladies... presenting.....

My dress

Let me start off by saying this is in no way the dress I had dreamed of. Until I put it on. I had originally gone in to purchase an entirely different dress but under the urging of those around me I decided to try on a few others to make sure the one I had dreamed of was really "the one". With me to the bridal salon I took Miss Jessica (: one of my honorary bridesmaids whom I had asked to pick out a few styles for me to try on. This was one of the one's she had picked out. I put this on right before my "dream dress" & once I took it off and put my dream dress on I found myself comparing it to this one! Down to the point: I fell in love with my anti-dream dress!

Here is also the veil I chose. It has beautiful flower beading details to match the details on the dress.
