Bridal Luncheon Dresses

You all know I am indecisive when it come to clothing, so it is time for another opinion. Below are the dress options for the bridal luncheon. Apparently I only own black bresses so most of these are borrowed. A couple of them are mine. Anyway, let me know what you think. Also, if any of them seem good for Jamiaca let me know that too. I am sorry for the quality of the pictures. I had to use the timer option on the camera.

Stupid Weather!

It is supposed to rain for seven days straight in Ashveille, with Saturday being right in the middle. I guess my hopes of the rain making it through a little early are gone. I guess I will just keep watching and start thinking about how I will set up the fireplace ceremony.

Weather Update

As of today there is a 60% chance of rain in Asheville next Saturday. It is supposed to start raining Wednesday and continue through Saturday. Everybody keep your fingers crossed that it will move through before Saturday!

Weather Forecast

The wedding day has made it on to the 10 day forecast. So far there is not a big change of rain (10% chance) and the temperatures will be high of 53 low of 39. I would like a little warmer, but it's not terrible. It is supposed to rain the two days before, so hopefully the rain will move through in time.

Wedding Shower

This weekend I had my bachelorette party and wedding shower. I will not post any of the pictures from the first event, but thanks to my mother, there are tons of pictures of the shower. Thanks again to Kat for throwing the bachelorette party and to Susan and Amber for throwing the shower. I had a great time at both.

Dresses and Invitation

I finally got on the ball and got the bridesmaid dresses ordered this weekend. Because I put it off for so long, I had to go with dress 3 because of delivery issues. I think they will look good. I did a rush on them, so the lady from the shop is supposed to call me today and let me know the delivery date.

The exciting part from the weekend is we got the invitations in. They look really good. The color is slightly off from he periwinkle I was going for, but that is not a big deal. I hope to get them sent out this week, but it will probably be next week before I actually get them all addresses.

Bridesmaid Dresses

When we went bridesmaid dress shopping this morning, I thought that it would be a great idea to use my handy new tiny video camera. Here are the top three dresses. Try to imagine each dress in periwinkle. Both Amber and I tried them on so that we could see how different people would look in them. For the two that have accent colors, we would either do the accent in periwinkle too or do it in navy or brown, whichever one ends up being the accent for the wedding colors. Let me know your thoughts. Which dress do you like? What are your thoughts on the accent color?

(Sorry the videos are sideways. It is perfectly natural to hold a still camera sideways and flip the picture later. Since this camera is so small, I did the same thing with it.)
