Garter belts--
Ladies--You have to read this!!!!
If you are looking for awesome garter belts that are reasonably priced then you HAVE to check out where I got mine!!! I was surfing eBay for a garter belt and since my wedding colors are White, Apple Green and Navy I figured Id just buy a traditional white one and then I found this website!!! She had on SALE a set of two garters in Apple Green and Navy!!!! And they are awesome!! The 1st pic is the "Keepsake" garter. The second pic is my "Toss" garter, how cute is that w/ the polka dots?!?!?! Actually the toss that came with it was a smaller version of the Keepsake and when I found the polka dot one so I asked if she could swap them out and she totally agreed!!! She was very friendly and helpful via email:) Her website is amazing--TONS of colors and styles--she specializes in Sports team garters and she also makes wedding bags, good for storing makeup or to use for the Dollar Dance:) If you want something different definately check out her site!!! P.S.~I even got one of my fiances fave NFL team (Miami Dolphins), won't he be surprised, sshhhhhh ;-)

Wedding Flowers
I love all of these, which ones do you like?
Okay, so I wanted to have a Green and White bouquet for myself and green, white and blue bouquets for the maids. I love roses but Im also liking the wildflower bouquets. My bouquet will be Green and white tied with a white and Apple green bow. My MOH and Maids with have theirs tied with a navy bow and also include a small amount of blue flowers. The first three bouquets are ones I like for myself. The last three are ideas for the girls.My flowers girls will be throwing White and Green silk flowers petals that I purchased online(last picture). Any other ideas would be great!!

Wedding Cake
Finally something HE was excited about!!!
Here is the wedding cake design we BOTH agreed on! The first thing Brian's been excited to get involved with lol. What is it with guys and food??? Anyways, I found this design on Wildflowersbakery.com and she supplies cakes to PA but the shipping costs would be outrageous!! We found a bakery in Carlisle(about an hr away) called The Fancy Cake Shop and can do it for WAY cheaper!! The cake will be trimmed in Apple green ribbon(instead of the Sage shown) and will have a topper replicating my bridal bouquet. The cake flavors we have chosen are as followed: bottom layer up: Dark Chocolate Fudge, Raspberry Champagne, Dark Chocolate Fudge, Raspberry Champagne. They also provide a top layer(for free) for your 1 yr anniversary and we are probably going for a tradiational Butter cake with Chocolate Bavarian Creme!! My mouth is watering just thinking of this cake, YUM!

Flower Girl
Dresses for the flower girls
This is the dress I found for my daughter(who is 6) and my fiance's cousin(who is 5) for their Flower girl dresses. They're cute and simple and I will really add a nice contrast to the Green and Navy throughout the wedding. Here's the best part, you can RENT them for $19 a week from irent2u.com!!! Cant beat that!! Yes Im taking a bit of a risk with an all white dress, but I couldn't resist!!!

Inspiration Board
Apple Green, White and Navy:)
Here is the inspirations for our wedding theme!! The main focus is the Apple Green and Crisp White with Navy accents. But the Apple and Navy board is really nice too. The theme of our wedding is "Springtime Garden Party". I didn't want my accent color to be pink, purple, yellow etc. because I wanted something to tone down the green just a bit and the Navy I think adds a richness. What do you think?

Bridesmaids
Apple Green--Straps vs. Strapless, help!!
Okay, so I have it pretty easy when it comes to picking my bridal party. I have 3 sisters so they are all in it. The problem is, is that I'm having a hard time trying to find an Apple green bridesmaid dress that looks really good on ALL of them. Green isnt the most flattering color and Apple green is very bright so it's a hard color to work on them. My oldest sister is 5'10 and a size 14/16 and has short brown hair and brown eyes, she is also VERY tan. My second oldest sister is 5'5 a size 18 with long wavy brown hair and brown eyes and VERY pale skin. My youngest sister is 5'7 and a size 9(she's very pear shaped though) with short blonde hair and light green eyes and also VERY pale. So all 3 of them are a different size, shape and color. I wanted strapless tea length Apple green dresses but they all want dresses with straps(especially my 2nd oldest sister who has a tattoo on her chest). They ALL like the color, its the style Im having trouble with. Does anyone like the dresses I have picked so far?? The Liz Clairborne(my main blog picture) is the top contender. Also, Has anyone else one here used Apple Green bridesmaid dresses?? If so caould you send me a pic or explain how you picked your color and style--it would give me a good example!!
