Vintage, Sunny Yellow, Outdoors :D

I'm getting married!!!!!! to the most beautiful and amazing man that I know. I can hardly wait to start our lives together, but along with getting married comes planning! :D I can't wait to show my own personal DIY style and make this wedding completely tailored to Alex and I. :D The hardest part, in my opinion is over...letting the cat out of the bag with Alex's family that we are getting married on the west side of the state, close to my family. What a relief to get all of that sorted out.

Now it's time to get excited and enjoy these fleeting moments of being engaged! :D What a pretty ring too! So gorgeous.

Here are some ideas:

Outdoorsy...amongst trees, flowers, green growth. a place full of rich plant life and sun streaming in. I am thinking either a park...or a garden. I also would like an indoor option in case, heaven forbid, it rains.




I want my wedding to be vintage inspired. Classic and almost with a nostalgic feel to it. Like coming home. I also want it to be completely personable and a touch of art to each detail. My mother is going to be sewing the bridesmaid dresses and I plan on doing my invites by hand, me being the artist :D



I really like the back of the dress in this picture...I am thinking that I want a vintage form fitting flowy dress..with a hint of lace..I like little buttons as well...I'm thinking I don't want strapless just because I want to have a dance party and I don't want to be pulling up my dress the whole time. I also LOVE trains :)


I really like the feel of all of these ideas in this picture..I especially like the suit..I would definetly want to do something like this for the groom and groomsmen..

I want everything to be soft and yellow. I think I will only stick with one color, a sunny soft yellow and have cream and white hues.

I am really considering this in my hair along with a bird cage...maybe something not so big...

My all time hair accessory:

I am also thinking about having fabric flower pins for the sorority girls. They could pin it like a boutineer...these are really pretty...

I want pictures like these...well at least a couple:


Nature is my one true passion so there needs to be a feeling of "all natural" to the wedding as well :D


okay Erin...doesn't really compare to the goth weddings ;) but it's my cup of tea :D
