My Dress

I got my dress last Friday and I absolutely love it! Tyler did not have school in Friday so we decided to take a trip down to Orem to go to David's Bridal. They were having a good sale so I thought it wouldn't hurt to check them out... I went to their booth at the Wedding Expo at Thanksgiving Point a few weekends ago and got a catalog so I had an idea of what I wanted... I am not one of those do what everyone else is doing people so a plain white wedding dress is out of the question for me! I tried on a few with ivory on them but did not like them :( I have decided almost all the dresses now days are strapless or make your boobs fall out in some way ha ha!!

I had picked two out that had color on them and they just happened to be the two I fell in love with and looked the best on me... I chose the second colored one I tried on and I am happy I did! It is white and the stuff that is embroidered is burgundy with pearls on it... it is strapless with a scalloped edge around it... I would put a picture up but I don't want Dan to see it :)

They were really helpful at David's Bridal and I am surprised at how big of a selection they have! Ty even found a dress she wants to wear but I think we will shop around for hers a bit... I asked Ty to be my Maid of Honor... I think she liked that idea!

My Inspiration

This is where I got the idea for using a damask pattern as part of our decorations. I am going to have the table runners made out of damask fabric, the ring pillow and make a basket with it on it for Hailey to carry since she will be our flower girl.

Our invitations have damask on them as well :)

I gave the chore of figuring out my cake to my sister just because she asked if she could do it. Crazy lady ha ha!! I am going to have it be square not circular and have some ribbon on it too... Just now how to do cool damask designs out of fondont is the question?

I am absolutely in love with this picture!!!!! Anyone that knows me knows that I am the biggest skull and crossbones freak ha ha.. I know I am strange... This picture has rubbed off on me so we decided to do one similar in my bridals but I will have some sort of skull and crossbones thing on me somewhere! You can roll your eyes I am used to it :)

In the beginning I wanted to have our colors as hot pink, lime green, black and white... Now Dan does not like the lime green idea so I was kind enough to change it to a burgandy color since red is his favorite color. Aren't I sweet he he! There will still be green in somethings so no problem :)

I have so many other things that have inspired me but we can save them for later!

The Beginning

I decided to start a blog about us, our wedding planning, family and so on! This has been such a bumpy but awesome road to get us to this day and I can't wait for it to come!! I am sure I will have many posts soon but for now just be prepared and anticipate to laugh and roll your eyes when reading the posts to come :)
