A Blonde Wedding: {Sneak Peek #2}

Our Wedding Sneak Peek Series continues today with the second installment and I’m so excited to show y’all more fun details about our big day! Let’s get right to it!

This week’s wedding letter is “B”.

B is for…

Brooch

I saw a few bridal magazines that featured bouquets with brooches attached to the stems and loved the idea! I’m still in the process of finding the perfect brooch for my bouquet, but I know I definitely want one adorning mine on the big day.

Ideally, I’d like to find two matching brooches – one for my bouquet and the other for my mom’s. I’m planning to scour Etsy this weekend, since they always have the best accessories for vintage-loving brides!

Boudoir

I’ve had a couple of girl friends who have done boudoir-type photo shoots for their hubbies as wedding day gifts. Personally, I love the idea of getting all dolled up in flirty lingerie and taking some cute pics for your man…I mean, chances are, you’re in the best shape of your life, right? Why not remember it forever?!

My friend and amazing photog, Rhyanne Ketron, will be shooting mine at the end of the month and I’m pumped! Though these will be for S’s eyes only, I will definitely tell y’all how it goes! We're planning on something tasteful, flirty and fun.

Blossom

I’ve known for a while now that whatever I end up doing with my hair on the Big Day, I want a blossom to adorn it. I love the look of a barrette or flower pinned neatly into a cute up-do or even on the side of hair worn down.

It’s beautiful and timeless and the perfect alternative to those of us brides who aren’t veil girls!

Band

…wedding band, that is. I’ll be wearing my great grandmother’s wedding band on my right hand when I walk down the aisle. She passed it on to my Memaw, who passed it on to me several years ago, in hopes that someday I’d wear it for my own wedding.

The band actually has 3 diagonal lines etched into the front of it, representing three generations of women. It actually gives me chills to think about my great grandmother and Memaw wearing it down the aisle for their weddings to my grandfathers.

Blush

Our accent color is blush, which I LOVE. Our main colors are very muted, so I wanted something light and airy to offset the drama of the grey, coal and alabaster in the main palette.

I thought blush was a perfect solution for that! My bridesmaids’ dresses are blush and many of our English Garden roses will be in a nude, café ‘au lait color.

That’s all for today, girls! Stay tuned for the third installment of this special Sneak Peek series next week…I’ll even be revealing our invitations! : )

Be blessed, lovelies-
