Shower Dress



I was getting jealous all these ladies on the wedding forum I frequent were buying all these pretty new dresses for their showers and rehearsal dinners ad we just dont have the spare funds for such luxuries for me... well lucky me I made a sale in my etsy shop so I used it to buy a cute little white dress on ebay :) Now lets just pray it fits well lol

Jewelery

Ive been hunting around for necklaces and earrings... Ive been in love with this style of necklace since before I found a dress... however now that I have my dress I think this necklace is TOO much perhaps for it - Well I couldnt resist and I went ahead and ordered it anyway (it wasnt really all that much money so why not)
I also purchased a pair of chandelier earrings and a pair of simple drop earrings... so we'll see what works for me (they were only about $10 for both pairs)
LOVE Ebay! lol

Sporrans

Im placing the order for the groomsmen and boys attire...

thought I would share with you the awesome sporrans we found for them! Are these cute or what... father and son sporrans LOVE IT! - Im so excited that they boys are going to have their own!

They are also almost identical to Will except his has white tassels where these have black ones :)

Hair Trial

So I had a really rough mock up of a hair trial when I went the other week to have my hair colour "fixed" lol.... I LOVE it .... I love what shes thinking and had never even considered it... doing really lose braids will for sure give it a celtic feel which totally fits the theme of our wedding! sooo excited shes also adding two temporary hair extension pieces that she will curl and place to the side around my neck

I took the photos on my cell so they arent great but it was just a rough mock up to get an idea ;)
