Congratulations Dreamful Spirit! http://www.animated-smileys.com/smil...edding-018.gif

SO PRETTY!!!! Definitely looking up what kind of flowers these are :)

Are those flowers in the collage with the caramels perhaps dahlias or mums?

Dahlias.

These. Are. Gorgeous!!

Thanks!

Yes, my bouquet was about the same with the same kind of flowers, only bigger. The only other difference was that my bouquet had a yellow rose in it. The yellow rose was symbolic for OPA and how my husband and I got engaged at OPA Convention!

Funny comment from my friend: "you have got to stop sending me floral porn at work."

I loved it until I scrolled down to the Toms shoes. Sorry, but they are frumpy and ugly and totally ruined the pic. I would rather see flip-flops and manicured toes.

I kind of liked them. Her wedding was very rustic and simple. Flip-flops wouldn't have fit the wedding, and I don't really think high heels would have, either. (this was a friend's wedding :p)

:o

They were certainly unexpected!! But I loved her flowers, so much. Lots of sunflowers around the church, too.

I agree about the Tom's shoes. My daughter tried to wear hers with a sundress to an outdoor open house graduation party and I told her it looked ridiculous. I'm not a Tom's fan to begin with. That squarish crease at the toe box.. ick. Not a fan.

Those dresses are definitely not rustic.

Totally agree. A simple flat sandal would have looked so cute.

Or ballet flats even.

I have MULTIPLE friends who have gotten Toms for their bridal shoes. I get the charitable aspect of it, but it just looks strange, especially with a gown.

Gladiator sandals or espradilles would be cute for a more casual wedding. But the flowy material of the dresses makes it seem semi-dressy to me.

I never in my life thought I'd see cotton and cotton hulls in a bouquet.:eek:

And why is a guy holding the bouquet?

Sorry for the double post!

Is there a site where you can choose some flowers and see what they'd look like together? I would really like to play with something like that!

honeychile, Style Me Pretty lets you search wedding flowers by color. I don't know of anything that lets you put them together, but if I find something I'll pass it on.

I was in Charleston this weekend for a wedding, and I saw at least 10 weddings happening in the historic district. I had no idea that Charleston had taken Vegas as the #1 wedding destination.

Lime green and navy was pretty popular (the wedding I attended didn't really have a color theme...maybe pink?).

The lotus seed pod part of it bothered me. :mad:

I LOVE Toms but I could not imagine wearing them with my wedding dress, no matter how informal the dress is!

(Not a knock to your friends, just my taste)

I love the shade of yellow here! Does anyone know which bridal manufacturer made these dresses?

I know they're comfortable but I HATE those shoes with those dresses.

why does the lotus seed pod bother you?

I didn't even see that until you said this. :(

LOVE! We're doing white, black, and pink and I absolutely adore this!
