I'll Be There Shortly...

I love the current trend of slipping out of your gown and into a slinky little number at the end of the night. These short dresses look perfectly comfortable and flattering for a fun exit.

Dress Love: Net-A-Porter

I should turn away from this eye candy before I overindulge. Definitely sneak a peak at Net-A-Porter's beautiful wedding boutique. I'm loving the two modern and glamorous dresses featured below. 

Obsession: Multicolor Bridesmaids

Lately, I've been seeing bridal parties, such as the one below, in which each girl dons a slightly different shade of the brides color pallet. I'm especially loving these two pictures I saw featured on The Cinderella Project. The combination light frosty colors is so dreamy and each girl is so perfectly complemented by thanks to variety in the straps and cuts of the dresses as well.

I'm not exactly sure as to how/where to find dresses that perfectly complement each other like these, but I'm willing to search. Thoughts?

Dress Love

I saw this amazing gown by Essence of Australia online and I am stunned by its beauty. Its definitely in the running to be my dress of choice.

Color Board- Lavender

Dress Love: Anthropologie Wedding Collection

For me to wear? Perhaps not
Regardless, I couldn't help but share this pretty eye candy.

Hanger Update #2

As I previously mentioned, I was finally able to locate the custom wedding dress hanger that I fell in love with early in my planning. While the site noted that the product was sold out, the seller wrote me an e-mail to  let me know how I could score the little touch that I can't live without. Look below for a copy of her note to me, and if you are interested in purchasing one of these hangers as well, visit her shop at: http://www.etsy.com/shop/lilafrances

Inspiration Board

Today, I visited TheKnot.com and made this cute little inspiration board. It was a fun project & the layout turned out pretty nicely. I would say however, that the site didn't give me much flexibility in choosing my "inspirational categories." For example- the fake groom was a necessity, mine is much better looking haha.

I'm loving the color combinations though. I'm thinking lots of crystals, accompanied by light shades of blue, cream, and lavender would look fresh and elegant- especially if we decide to go with an outdoor wedding...
