wedding update.

hello dolls,
as you know, this weekend i went to try on wedding dresses for the first time and it was so much fun! i didn't pick a final one yet, but got lots of ideas. there are so many gorgeous gowns out there...

i have to confess that since simon reads the blog every day i'm probably not going to reveal it until after the big day. i hope you will all forgive me; some traditions are just too much fun. :)

however, i'd love to share some other visual yumminess related to our wedding, if you're interested! in snippet and ink style, i have created an inspiration board. i can't wait to hear what you think!

mood: casual elegance, playful romance, splashes of vintage

palette: butter yellow, graphite, vintage muted blues and wood
(to see a bigger version, click here)

our venue is a beautiful, rustic (yet elegant) barn. we are envisioning lots of organic-looking flowers, fun splashes of color, and whimsical, vintage embellishments. we are also getting married right before sunset, so i am hoping for pictures with some warm tones...

next up, i'd love your advice on a wedding related matter. please check back later!

    I love your "mood" and "palette." they are perfect and much what I would want! that is, if I were getting married :)

    and sunset nuptials sound fantastic. very romantic.

    I love this color palette. I did lemons, tangerine's and grey/graphite. Mine was a bit more modern but I did LOVE having this rustic monogram letter on my cake table that I found on Etsy - http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=31038009. I had mine done in orange but she has a lovely yellow.

    Also check out eco-fetti as a possible tossing idea as you leave - it's biodegrabable, eco friendly confetti. Adorable and I had little seal stickers made and put it in glassine envelopes. The pictures after the wedding were the best part :)

    Yellow french tulips would be LOVELY with this mood.

    I love hearing about your wedding plans! My color palette is dark gray, bright pink and orange so it's got the same base as yours. I tried on wedding dresses a while ago and I know how you feel-it's definitely overwhelming deciding on a dress.

    Try your best to keep your gown a surprise! My fiance thought mine was tea-length until a discussion about shoes yesterday made my mom say "Your dress is long so you'll want heels" infront of my fiance. We're getting married November 1st (6 days!) I guess it had to be spoiled somehow...the funny thing is that the dress is in the corner of our closet and he hasn't felt the urge to see what it looks like!
