Wedding Ideas Evolving
We have 8 months left.... and this is what I've come up with so far:
Retro color scheme (candy apple red, white, tiffany blue):

I just bought this dress online from DB last night (March 5)! I hope it will fit....it used to be $400 but I got it for $99, a 0P...they only had a 0P, 4P, and 8P.
Today is the 8th and it is in PA right now sitting in packaging on its way to me. I am so terrified that it won't fit well, if at all, or that it will not be flattering. The only pics online I have seen are on curvy brides, and it looks great on them. My biggest concerns are that it will be too tight, defective, too large in the bust area, and that it will make my shoulders look really wide. I don't know what I'll do if I have to return it. I think I will take that as a sign that the early wedding isn't meant to be:

with a blue ribbon sash that will be used to wrap around the bouquet stems

I certainly want pearls and a birdcage veil. And pumps.

A birdcage veil with a blue flower...add red beads to center:


Shoes by Hey Lady, order a half size up:

Martinez Valero (Tiffany Blue):

will likely need to order red shoes, since they are waaaay easier to find.

pin up makeup:

MAC's Russian Red, "intense bluish-red"; MAC Red, "vivid bright bluish-red"

this hair in the front to frame the face:

this hair for the back and some of the side:

I love the red nails, but I want white and blue flowers I think... not sure. But definitely red nails and the flowers/ribbon will be some combination of white and blue. It will probably depend on flower availability, but at this point I am going for faux flowers since it will be December.

This but completely reversed....mostly white roses with some red accents, and then with a ribbon....
