My Bouquet
It was lovely!
Orchids, roses, crystals and feathers!! I told the florist what I had in mind and provided the crystal strands and purple ostrich feathers. I was so happy when I saw it on the wedding day! It was really heavy though! Glam!! Loved the contrast next to my ivory dress. I hope this inspires you!  |

Wedding Reception
Vintage Photobooth
Here it is...
it's not finished, but all the pictures are printed and almost framed. We will be attaching them to the wall with silicone, so they will not fall off. ENJOY! I love it! (it's laying on the floor, so it's hard to get a good pic)  here's it in action!    it's smaller than the original, but it will fit perfect on the table and corner in the cocktail lounge. We're hoping to use some of the photos that ppl take for our wedding scrapbook. I do have it available for sale. (London, Toronto, Collingwood areas) If you have questions about making your own I will try to answer them! |

Wedding Reception
Music!
I've researched tons for my wedding.
Although, I do know quite a bit about the 30s/40s because I have to research it for costume design etc. But, I thought I would post my music list to help other brides with a similar theme. All the music is big band/swing and jazz. Every song was either composed/written/recorded between 1929-1949. (even Marilyn's song was written in 1949, but wasn't released until 1953 for the movie) Some songs have been recorded by various artists, but I've chosen my favs... I have hours of the music but I will post a few to get you started Preludes Vera Lynn - "I'm in the mood for love" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jha-DYxSI0c Billie Holiday - "easy living" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RX7TA3ezjHc Ceremony Glenn Miller Orchestra - "moonlight serenade" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHBvksGdhxA&feature=related Artie Shaw - "love walked in" Cocktails Anita O'Day - "I can't believe that you're in love with me" Ella Fitzgerald - "Let's do it, let's fall in love" Fats Waller - "Everybody loves my baby" June Christy - "Shoo fly pie and apple pan dowdy" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4guFKB5FeuE Cole Porter - "it's delovely" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHa21Ln_dGk Dinner Benny Goodman - "sing, sing, sing" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwDN9UMMi3c Glenn Miller Orchestra - "string of pearls" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQUljW_s50I&feature=related Duke Ellington - "take the A train" Tommy Dorsey - "song of india" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hDWIg4FGJs 1st Dance Edith Piaf OR Louis Armstrong - "la vie en rose" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IJzYAda1wA&feature=related Cake Cutting (LOVE THIS SONG) *can't find the original on youtube* Louis Jordan - "knock me a kiss" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIgpUcfzqGc Bouquet Toss Marilyn Monroe - "diamonds are a girl's best friend" I think most songs are on you tube, so listen to a few! I have TONS more obviously.. and there are so many great songs out there that would fit with the big band/jazz theme, but I was so picky about being sure the years were correct! |

Saving the bouquet?
I didn't even want flowers (they were just too expensive), but everyone talked me into getting a bouquet.
I don't even know what we're doing for it, I'm hoping to meet with the florist next week. However, I saw that you can preserve the bouquet and frame it... now I'm thinking, I want to keep it and not throw it! ahahahah Can I take my bouquet back from the girl who catches it? ahahaha I guess I could....... hrmmmmm I'd love to dry the boutonniere too. I think it'd look fab in a vintage frame somewhere in my house.  Any thoughts?  |

Bachelorette!
My Dress!
I feel in love with it, so I bought it.
I've decided I am going to wear it as much as possible! I have 2 bachelorettes so I will wear it both times. I will buy some wings and be a fairy for halloween! I don't particularly like the black shoes, but I don't have ones that are the same pink colour, etc my Betsey Johnson shoes, but that's too much tulle! the true colour is like a hot pink, like in this picture:  Lately I've been obsessed with pink! My party is this weekend! AFTER SHOT!  |

I'm a bit of a retro gal, so naturally our wedding theme reflected that. We had a late 1930s Old Hollywood themed reception. All big band swing and jazz music and lots of glamour!
Our main colours were black & white with accents of a deep rich eggplant.
