Ceremony & Reception Decor
I am going to get my fiance and his brother to make a fake fireplace in white and have a bunch of different height candles in it. I have found the battery operated candles that flicker. I want to use this to be married in front of for the ceremony. We will then move it to the reception area for a perfect photo op prop!
We are also considering having a four foot bar made out of ice, they said that can do any design, monogram it, and even put limes in the ice!!! I think it would be amazing for a cocktail wedding! hey can also make luges and have a green drink as our feature drink so you see the green liquid going through it! |

Wedding Decoration
These will be out table cloths. We are going to have both shorter and taller cocktail tables so I am not sure if it will be too much to have them on all the tables?!? Might put them on either just the short or just the tall. We are thinking of using the black silky chair covers with the green sash. What do you think?

Centerpieces
The first three pics are some ideas for the short tables at the reception, as we will have shorter tables with chairs and cocktail tables to stand around. The first is my fav if you add the hanging candles and have only white flowers. I think I would change the curly willow and spray paint it white.
The other pics are ideas for the cocktail tables, I want to use all different shapes and sizes of clear glass vases that I have collected. |

My Shoes
I think these are them! The only pink will be my clutch purse and shoes! It think they go great with the ruffles on my dress. They aren't too high and the heel is a little thicker which will be easier to walk in. The hot pink will pop with the green, black and white!

Wedding Cake
This is the inspiration for our cake! Gotta love Martha! It will be a four or five tier in black and white.
The frog cake is a surprise for my fiance! He is my prince charming but it took me to turn him from a frog to a prince! Haha! Traditionally a grooms cake is fruit cake which is perfect because he loves it!!! |

Wedding Dress
This is the dress!!! The photos don't give it justice, I ordered in the whitest white they have & I was the first to purchase it! ! It fits like a glove and I love it! The designer is Ramona Keveza! I think it fits our cocktail wedding theme perfectly (not to toot my own horn)! :0)
I deleted the picture of the dress as my mom was worried that someone we know would see it~ so I will say this, you will definitely find a difference in couture and non-couture dresses, the fit, the fabric, and the finish work! |

The Proposal
The proposal was totally unexpected. Although we have been together for over 4 1/2 years and had the hall booked, we agreed to wait until next year to purchase a ring as we recently opened a spa. We had an appointment at a great b&b where we wanted to say with the bridal party. We toured around the amazing house that is on 80 acres of land. After booking the b&b for the week of the wedding, we went outside to look at the breathtaking view overlooking the river and mountains. That's where he asked me!!! I was so happy, it was official! We kissed & hugged and when I went to pull away he showed me a beautiful ring ~ I thought we were going to wait to purchase! It is beautiful, it is a flawless diamond, rare white in color, and a carat. The picture shows the ring before I sent it away to be fixed, as it came in wrong the first time... It will be on a North South Setting... We are so happy!
