I just love these sweet and light shades of pink for a spring or summer wedding! Incorporating a mix of multiple pink shades adds more excitement to your color pallet - I recommend choosing two or three shades of pink and one bold color such as silver to accent it or green for example. This will allow you to carry the same shades throughout your big day while not being overwhelming with just one shade of pink. Some of my favorite trends above are using ruffles that bring back a beautiful vintage feel with ruffles, lace, and feminine feel. Using ivory or pearl accents would also romanticize this pallet; have fun with your pinks!!
Most young girls are given a mental picture of what Brides are supposed to look like from fairytale stores and such; you know... "The Beautiful Bride, All Dressed in White, Wearing a pretty White Veil with her pretty Princess Gown, and on her way to say I Do to Prince Charming"??? Well... The Ideal Bridal Style has since evolved! There is no longer a rule out there that says you Have to wear a veil or if you do that it has to be a long sheer white one. Now days, modern Brides are either sticking with the traditional white veil, but are also going more contemporary with unique hair pieces or colored veils such as the ones shown above! Brides are able to have fun with their hair styles and adding floral accessories or even something blue in some way. Check out these inspiring ways to spice up your wedding look and making it your own personal style, enjoy~
Here is a great way to incorporate modern style and warmth on your winter wedding day! Allow your Bridesmaids to be dressed in beautiful glamour accessorized with a warm Green Pashmina Shawl, Black Modern Wedge Heels, and a Green Hair Accessory or pice of jewelry if you prefer (please one or the other to be subtle). Also a great touch is to have Pashmina Shawls as Wedding Favors at the ceremony - Having them rolled up with a ribbon and a personalized tag that says "Enjoy: Compliments of the Bride & Groom" or something in that nature is a great touch to help your guests stay warm throughout the entire evening and also leaving them with a sweet parting gift! Custom Invitations and matching Table Menu's also add an elegant touch to tie in all your details~
I know that many Brides getting married in any wet and rainy season is going to be worried about what shoes to wear (no one wants to sink into mushy grass in heels, especially the bride)! I recommend wearing a beautiful wedge heel so that if your wedding is out doors at all, you won't be worried about tip-toeing down the aisle... This also goes for Bridesmaids and guests, allow yourself to be comfortable at all times and be able to dance the night away!

Came across a fabulous and inspiring DIY idea from Disney of Ruffles & Stuff, who recently posted how to transform an old tall umbrella into a cute ruffled one - all on a dollar store budget! Check out this great idea and HowTo for your upcoming fall or winter wedding, enjoy! (Inspiration above and $1.00 DIY version below) "Materials:
Boring old umbrella (on hand)
Dollar Store shower curtain liner $1
An old button
Cost Estimate: $1
1) First you want to measure all the way around the bottom of your umbrella, and double it for how much curtain liner you will need (plus extra for a flower, and top ruffles). For example, my umbrella was 120″ around, and I cut four 2″ sections that were the full length of the curtain, for a total of about 280 inches. No need to add seam allowance because it doesn’t unravel! Yay!
2) Then sew a straight stitch (on your machine’s longest stitch length) down the middle of all the strips, and pull the bottom thread to gently gather.
3) Hand stitch them onto your umbrella, wherever you like! So easy!!"
