The girls

I've changed my mind a few times on what colors I think the girls should wear, but I'm making it official, they will wear this Jim Hjelm dress in navy.  They're all going to look absolutely stunning in it!

The Moms

Both are wearing Montage by Mon Cheri.  My mom (directly below) is wearing this exact dress, in fact we brought it home that same day.  It's a little more gold than green like you see in the picture (it's called bronze).  FMIL is wearing the second dress in moss. 

Me

I found my shoes!  I was looking for cute flats - which are nearly impossible to find since I'm not a ballet shoe person.  I found them at Aldo - I thought I would really struggle finding them but they kind of fell into my lap.

Dancing Shoes

I found these super cute ballet slippers and had to have them to dance in.  I figure there was no way I could go all out dancing in flip flops - but I hate regular blah white ballet shoes.  These were perfect and I'm really excited to wear them at the reception!

DO NOT LOOK BEYOND THIS POINT!!!


Thanks babe :)

My dress that I can't get enough of.  I didn't want to take it off.  It's Maeve by the Vineyard Collection.  Really, this dress is everything I could have ever wanted in a wedding dress.  I am a big fan of the "clean dress" before I knew what a clean dress was.  I did know that I was not a bead/lace person so I knew I wanted something fairly simple that reflected me and my style.  I love how Maeve is simple, elegant, classic and still interesting.  Originally I thought I wanted something a little sleaker, but I'm so glad I changed my mind to something more full.  I can't wait to wear it on our wedding day!  There will be some alterations made that you'll see later on, but I'm so excited to say I'm a POB bride!

Alright - some pics of me in my dress!  I was SO excited to try it on!  I love it even more than before.  It's still a bit big and needs to be altered (we'll be doing that in February).  We also decided on the veil.  It's actually made out of english net - ironic since I really do not like tulle and I found one of only a couple non-tulle veils that they offer!  The veil has small little crystals scattered around the edges.  Perfect since there is no "bling" on the dress.  I am still debating the bow.  I'm actually thinking of keeping it!  The bow on the sample was a bit disheveled and I was sure we would remove it - but on my dress it looks really cute and now I'm thinking of leaving well enough alone!  We'll see in February which way I decide to go!
