Wedding!

So, even though I seem to somehow mention something about the wedding in my other posts, I haven't really done a post about wedding stuff all alone yet.. sooo.... here we go!

First, THANK YOU so much for all your feedback about the honeymoon registry! Seriously, that made me sigh from relief that it worked for so many of you. And thank you for the recommendations on the companies you used! That helps a ton, too! I think that's probably a route we'll pursue, along with a regular registry for guests that prefer the traditional gift route.

We have plenty of time, but here are some things we've either already decided or are leaning towards. :)

COLORS:

I saw this bouquet on Pinterest and just fell in love. I have every intention of using it for my color inspiration. Thankfully I have friends who are much more design-oriented than I am that can help me integrate these colors beautifully. (I also plan to copy this bouquet, too. Gorgeous, right?!)

PLACE:

Inside/outside at the beautiful Garden Center mansion. We walked in and both exchanged a glance like "Yeah, this is where we're getting married." :)



PHOTOGRAPHY:

We're using Ace Cuervo and I couldn't be more excited! If you've been reading awhile, you know I'm completely and totally a little obsessed with photos. I think they're the best way to document experiences, memories, etc. And it's not just about the pictures. It's about the memories and feelings they evoke when you look at them, ya know. Anyhoo, I've had several friends use Ace and I've stalked wedding photographers' blogs for a couple years (I'm creepy. It is what it is). And he's always been my favorite. Meeting him in person just solidified that further.

Excited for our upcoming little engagement session this Monday if the weather behaves itself! :)

Speaking of...

I had NO idea what I wanted to wear...until I saw a friend's photos in gorgeous bright blue. I loved them. I started a quest for a perfect bright blue dress. Randomly, I stumbled on this one at Gap this week when I was meandering around Utica Square at lunch.

Cute, right?! I'm thinking possibly a gold belt. Not too thin, but not super thick either. I don't want to overdo it so if I do a belt, I probably will do a simpler necklace. Probably nude heels. So I'm on a quest for the perfect belt this weekend.

I also have a casual jeans/blouse outfit for some fall foliage pics.

We have some ideas for music, food, etc, but haven't really talked much about them. And the dress? Well, if you follow my pinterest board, you know the kind of style I like on paper. Lace. V-neck. Low-ish back. Simple silouette. But, I've heard that reality can be much different and to stay open to trying on different styles. I need to make an appt to go look at dresses at least once before Christmas, but I just haven't done it yet. :)
