Watters Bridesmaids 174 plum
I ordered this Watters bridesmaids dress and it was the wrong size. The dress is in a size 6 and the color is in plum. Check out the website to see what the dress looks like on the model. :)

$130 ( selling cheaper than the actual cost of the dress)

Decided on a cake!
This is the cake that we decided on. However, instead of fondant we are using buttercream. I fell in love with the design though! I'll defiantly post pictures of the actual cake to see how close she came to it,

Centerpieces!
Excuse my little brother in the background... lol
These are the centerpieces for 12 of the 22 tables. We are deciding on which colors to use.. I'm thinking about going with the purple/blue/green.

The tops were made by a woman at Michael's. She did an amazing job I love them! They are all silk flowers so I plan on selling them when I am finished. The vases were also purchased at Michael's.

Escort Cards
I'm making our escort cards... they look pretty similar to this. Once again, when I'm done I will post a picture..haha. I guess I will start making them closer to the wedding because as of know I have no clue who is all coming or even where they are sitting.

Centerpieces
I wanted flowers to make the colors in the Moroccan lanterns that I'm having. We couldn't find anyone to do it for a somewhat reasonable price.. so we are getting them made at Michaels! She is doing an amazing job and I'm so very happy with them. Anyways these will be our centerpieces... a different lantern on each table with candles and then the taller centerpieces on the other tables.

I found these bouquets and I love how they are wrapped in the Moroccan fabrics...I think that it would go perfect with my theme.
