So I feel kinda weird coming out and confessing that I've been looking up things for my wedding. But I was reassured by my mother who told me that most girls have been collecting ideas for their weddings since the time they were 12!! So I felt a little better about that! I just enjoy picking out ideas! I know that my wedding is far away but I like thinking about how it will turn out. So far I haven't decided on any colors, I just have a lot of different ideas for color schemes!!

This is the Brown-Aqua-Orange Inspiration Board that I fell in LOVE with. I don't know if I could ever pull something like this off, but I think it's absolutely gorgeous. It's not necessarily 'me' but it appeals to a more daring side of me that I think would be fun to showcase.

This is another Inspiration Board that is so beautiful to me and yet I wonder if I could find enough things to pull it off. It's called Chic French Garden wedding. I especially love the flowers. Kind of a countryside feel to it, and I find it simply elegant.

I've grown to love the color combinations that aren't so typical. This is a Black-Red-Purple theme. I think it's beautiful and so different than I ever thought a wedding could be. It's rich and passionate. I quite like it... (again if I could pull it off!)

Then there's the ever popular Green-Black combination.

Yet I like the Green-Brown combination better.

Also Red-Black. I love all of the fleur de lis accents on the invitations and the napkins. They're so fun and I know that Red and Black is a common color scheme, I think the patterns make it more fun.

I think most everyone thinks of Red and Black and White, but I had never thought of the concept of doing Red and GRAY! I LOVE this too!! I think it's still elegant, yet a little bit more casual one. This would also be a little risky to try and pull off.

And another Red-Gray idea.

Of course my favorite color being lime green, this is a cute spin-off to make it more unique and original. Light green-Light yellow-Silver. I think it's beautiful!! I guess I think a lot is beautiful. It's so Classy!!

And finally another absolute FAVORITE!! Dark Blue and Bright Yellow. I fell in love with this when I saw it posted on another blog. They were sure to point out the Groom's matching socks to the bride's shoes and the string of yellow pearls. Love it! I think it's so fun and classy and it looks a lot different than I imagined it could look.

Of course I fell in love with the idea of having a Blue and Yellow wedding because of the possibility to leave the reception in something as cute and quirky as this yellow taxi. It could be so cute!
Now for my ever beautiful cake ideas! I've brainstormed my ideas for cakes and these are my favorites.

To go along with the Blue and Yellow theme, I would want this cake. It's probably my favorite except I don't like the flower. I LOVE the ribbon on it though and I think it would be such a simple yet elegant look.

This is tied as my favorite cake. Absolutely my favorite.
These are my other favorites. I go for the simple yet elegant look.



I love Gerber Daisies for flowers but really I, again, like anything that's a little bit original and unique.

And now for the most important part. The Wedding DRESS!!
I have found that I'm a very simple girl. It doesn't take a lot to impress me. I don't care if the flowers are fake, or if the cake is home-made, or if the decorations are from Wal-mart, as long as it pulls off the look I want I am a-ok with it! It goes the same for my dress. It doesn't have to be $3,000 to satisfy me. A simple white dress with beautiful detail will do for me. These are the pictures of some of my favorites.
I love the buttons down the back and the shape of the skirt.
However, I have always loved this kind of a skirt. I don't want it to be too puffy though, becuase then I would feel like I'm at Prom. I still want it to be elegant but I LOVE the look of pin ruffles.

This isn't too bad either. Very pretty.
I like these ones because of their shape and detail.


Ok... So I'm done obsessing over my wedding details. These are just so fun for me to look at. I daydream about these things all the time and I can't wait to make that day DANG perfect!! Ha ha But it'll be great no matter what, I just enjoy getting into the details. I just wanted to share and see what you thought about it all. If you have any suggestions or any comments let me know!! :)

*Dum Dum Dedum* How tender. :)
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about this stuff myself lately because my friend is getting married in December. Cute combinations, cute cakes, cute dresses - we have a LOT of the same tastes! I love you for that! My friend that's getting married is doing a copper and cerulean blue color combination. I love it - it's something I had never thought to put together...I'm tempted to steal it. :)
No way!! I had an inspiration board of Cerulean Blue and Copper but I didn't put it up because I had so many already! Lol I love the idea of it too! I'll put up the inspiration board just for you! I like them because they give you an idea of what it'll look like when it's all put together!! We so do have the same taste!! Lol That's exciting for your friend though! Isn't it crazy that we are old enough to have friends that are getting married? Yikes!!
ReplyDeleteHaha oh Alyssa, you crack me up. Just wait till all the girls you graduated with are getting married, it freaks me out! There was a point that i had a dream every night for 3 weeks that I was getting married... One morning I almost called someone about picking out flowers or something, I forgot it was a dream!
