We have our dresses!

So, WHO KNEW! David's Bridal would be the place to find the dresses? Crazy - totally not my style, but I loved the way these three dresses worked together. Kate will be wearing the darker teal dress. Sarah will be wearing the light blue with the spaghetti straps, and Monica will be wearing the sweetheart strapless. Each dress seems to reflect a bit of each girls personality and at least everyone won't look like little matching soldiers! Plus, the dresses are in a nice price range with a full spectrum of sizes. Anyhow - this has been the hardest part of the wedding thus far - actually deciding on colors. So I think the flowers will be deep pinks and oranges with gold wheat as an accent. Now we can move onto the guys and the fun little wedding details! Things are definitely falling into place! Yay!

Getting Warmer

I must say I'm sorry to Kathryn over at Snippet and Ink, because I have failed to give her due credit when posting her inspiration boards on my site. Her style is amazing - and I think deserves many praise! So here is another beautiful board which is helping to solidify my tendancy to lean towards a color palette that uses metalics and shades of pinks/corals. Thanks, Kathryn!

!@#$ COLOR!

Ok, so here's my biggest problem. I'm an artist, a graphic desinger, a color FANATIC...and I can't for the life of me decide on a color palette. I've got my dress, I'm pretty sure I know my location, but picking a color palette has been the hardest thing to commit to so far. So, at this point I'm thinking some sort of combination of light aqua marine, metalics (silver + gold), and corals with fushia for the flowers. Maybe some neutrals for the guys suits - tans/browns. Ugh! Its so hard! But, this is what its boiled down to. I've ruled out green (too foresty).
Also, I've come to the realization that both Scott and I value a balance in our lives. So I feel that appropriately our wedding taste should corruspond to that. We're not too down to earth, and not too fancy, but we're sort of a combination of both - we like getting dirty and we like dressing up! So, I think the style of the wedding should represent that.

More beautiful colors and beautiful flowers

I just love everything about this...

She looks so cute and natural - and the colors of his suit are simple and elegant - then the different pinks in the roses...oh so lovely!!!

Warm Golden Colors

So I haven't decided on a color palette yet, but this definitely is pretty. There may be too much dead grass around in October for a gold theme to work, but its an option.
