Wedding getting in on the collage action

[mimzy]

even though my wedding is less than two months away, i wanted to get in on the action too! i''m flat on the couch sick with nothing better to do (nor the capacity!) so i did what i probably should have done months ago! i used both actual pictures (candle centerpieces, reception hall, dress, etc) and inspiration pictures (bouqet, cake). our wedding is dec. 20th, the weekend before christmas

I love the colors! and that stole is FABULOUS! Have fun with your Christmas wedding. My birthday is Dec 23, so I will definitely be getting married several months removed from December if I have any say when BF FINALLY asks me!

What about shoes? What kind of shoes are you looking at?

I love the stole as well you are going to have a winter wonderland wedding I love it!!!

 

[lovesparklies]

I love your variations on the traditional Christmas colors! Very current. Your bmaid dresses are going to be gorgeous in that color. There''s something very romantic about winter weddings. My friends would kill me if I had a winter wedding in nothern Minnesota, though!

thanks WBMH! i''m in love with the stole too, even though i''ll only get to wear it for a little while!
for shoes i''m just wearing satin ballet flats dyed a peridot green color. FI''s only a few inches taller than me and my shoe budget was nil so i went the cheap route!

thanks lovesparklies! i was happy about the colors too. we had wanted a winter wedding but not necessarily a christmas one, but i was more okay with it once we settled one the colors (which i was being super picky about). the only problem is is that we can't really translate it into the church because there is bright red carpeting EVERYWHERE and it will be full of bright red poinsettas

and i'm in michigan, so our winters get pretty cold too! but december is *usually* pretty mild still......but i made them black wraps just in case

Mimzy,

What is the greenery in the basket on the bottom?

thanks LV! i hope so

. the greenery is green button mums. we''re going to use them in some of the boutonnieres and put one in the back of the chair sash at each seat at the head table

 

[oobiecoo]

Is that a picture of the church you are actually using!? That is GORGEOUS! You should totally get a horse drawn carriage or sled

 

[kama_s]

I love it! It''s so sensual! It''ll be PERFECT for your Christmas wedding!

Well, the green button mums sure are pretty! I like the idea that you are incorporating them throughout too. I like the flowers on the cake too!

And, I agree with Obiecoo about the church - it looks perfect.

 

[mimzy]

thanks kama_s!!

LV and oobiecoo, i WISH that was our actual church! we were looking at one like that, but ultimately decided that it was too far away from the reception venue and too small to hold everyone

. i used the picture to depict the snowiness that i''m hoping will be around on our wedding day! our church is in the middle of the city and while very pretty, isn''t *quite* as picturesque as that one
