We're doing a tropical theme, he and I very much love all things tropical so it goes great with both our personalities. Though an outdoor wedding would go great, I don't want to mess with the weather and heat issues, so we're havin it at the church building we both worship at. It's a kinda retro building but we're decorating it pretty well with palm trees and bogenvelias (sp?) and I'm making lines of flowers and crystals to hang infront of the baptistry. The bouquet is made of various tropical orchids, orange roses, and other flowers, the florist is excited to be doing it I'm still not sure what we're doing with the pews...but here's pictures that I have for concepts so far

Here's my dress, mum has the pictures of me in it, but here's the pic from the site, instead of the ivory sash it's going to be clover, the same color as the bridesmaid dresses:

The bridesmaid dresses are these colors, but are knee length:

Here's the ways I'm looking at doing my hair, more so the one that's down, I like the up one too...

Everything looks so lovely, Melissa!!! If I know your Mom everything will be just perfect and you'll have a very beautiful wedding!!! It certainly looks like everything is coming together very well.

Everyone's pictures are beautiful. I love how all of the dresses are different in style and everything. Becky that veil is awesome. Where did you find something like that at?

I just did a search for bird cage veils and I came across this site;

I had my heart set on this much bolder one; http://www.birdcageveils.com/birdcag..._net_short.htm
until I found my dress, then I just couldn't imagine it anymore... Thankfully, my second favorite compliments the dress perfectly

I can't wait until the day I have that off the shoulder dress on, my veil fluffed and placed correctly with my hair and jewelry LOL

I want the old fashioned seamed stockings with my lingerie

I cant wait to see pics. LOL! I noticed your date today and had an evil thought!!! "What if Bec gets preggers before then?"

[pope1982]

I fell in love with lingerie tonight I found "the one"!

so beautiful!!! now, skip the tye dye stockings!

ohhh i love that bustier! i think that the nude stockings would look nicer with the whole outfit than white ones. cause from the pics the dress looks a little off white. is it? or did i make that up lol. anyways i get a nurse vibe from white stockings.

Lissa everything looks beautiful. I know you and your Mom are very excited--and busy.

Oh, I love this thread, the pictures are breathtaking. You're all so beautiful.

pope, i love "don't stop me now" too! that sounds like a great idea, really up beat and fun. that heartland song made me cry, i get really emotional about the father/daughter every time i think about it.

[pope1982]

That thing has been making me cry every time I even attempt to listen to it lol but, the old man likes it so I guess I will have to keep checking my water proof mascara I had no idea I would get this emotional about that...
But it's true, I am not going to have daddy's last name anymore among other things

What will I do with all my pope1982 screen names?!?!? lol
