As I've said before, glitzy lights with a big huge monogrammed caked and ruffles everywhere might be the epitome of glamour for some brides--and good for you, you go one with your glamourous selves! But I prefer a much more low-key wedding style. I've been looking at www.oncewed.com for eons now (seriously, AMAZING diy projects and gorgeous ideas) and have been seriously smitten with the overall style of weddings featured on the site.
Lights haphazardly strung up in trees, wild flowers sticking out of mason jars, tea lights in old jam jars serving as center pieces... I know you're probably thinking it al sounds really ridiculous, but I'm tellin' ya... head on over to oncewed.com and you'll be surprised how lovely an empty field can be when done up with a few homey accents:) I know I was! Here are just a few photos from OnceWed.com for a little taste of what I'm talking about. Hope everyone has a happy Thursday! (I'm nursing a cold...boo!)
TWINKLE LIGHTS! Need I say more?
Love that little pug... can't wait to take wedding photos with my own sweet little pup:)
I LOVE how this bride wasn't afraid to "casualize" her gorgeous dress with a sweet little cardigan... COMFORT IS BEAUTIFUL! lol
I am so about the idea of not making my bridesmaids buy the same dress or a new dress period... I want, more than anything, for EVERYONE at my wedding to have a great time and to be comfortable. I MIGHT, MIGHT, MIGHT sweetly ask my bridesmaids to wear ANY dress in a blue or green shade, but I doubt it. I decided long ago that I do not care what ANYONE wears... I just want to be surrounded by friends and family who I love and love us:)
I think your ideas are great. There's no one right way to do a wedding. You're going to get lots of advice but do what you and Daniel will be comfortable with, it's your day. It's one day in your life together!!
