For the others 1) butler with bowler hat, waiscoat and cravat OR 2) pirate with black shirt, sash, and headscarf and/or hat OR 3) gondolier with straw hat with black ribbon, striped shirt and waist sash We would foot the bill for the hats and/or sash/scarves They would only have to buy shirts or rent a cravat and waistcoat They could wear any black pants with black shoes or boots |

This could be the perfect cake topper.
Our cake will be smaller than most of these, but we want 3 layers, Devil's food, red velvet and pumpkin flavored. |

Flowergirl & Ring pillow girl
Outfits found and ordered
The older girl will have the rings on a pillow and the black and white tights and the younger will carry the flower basket with gerbera heads and wear the orange and black tights. We are going to have the dresses hemmed to knee length to show off the tights. The bonnets are reproductions of a Victorian bonnet and they're going to cost me $39.00 each, but I could not resist. They are going to look so creepy cute. Like little victorian ghosts.
I ordered the fabric and feather trim for the ring pillow so I can sew it. |

Bridesmaids
Found! bridesmaids dress
My bridesmaids will be french maids!
Who knew it would be so hard to find a short black dress that wan't sleazy. It will be the David's bridal dress in black. Comes in every size we need, covers enough skin, comes in black, and isn't the MOST expensive dress in the world. We're going to decorate the handles on the feather dusters with sequins and ribbon and a flower. They are 20" long with 10" feathers for less than $10.00 apiece with the embellishments. Add the stockings for $9 and french maid choker, headpiece, apron, and cuffs set $8.99. They can choose any shoes and jewelry they want. |

Please Help Opinions needed!! I need a dress!
I have to choose a dress, SOON!
I only have 5 months to plan this thing! So this week we must book a venue for 60 people where we can have the ceremony and the reception AND dresses must be ordered! I am done shopping and I'm down to these 2 dresses. White or black? Click the mosaic pictures below to link to bighuge labs and see the accessories I like with each dress. Remember this is a halloween wedding and the guests are invited to wear costumes so I don't want to look totally normal. ROFLMAO, like I ever look normal! HA |
