Okay, so I’m not officially engaged yet, but I’m getting close! I’ve been bouncing around all kinds of ideas and I need your help! Kennie and I just found THE PLACE. The place we’ll be having the wedding I mean. And let me say…. it is GORGEOUS! So, now that I can visualize it… let the planning begin!
A few things we know for sure:
- It’s going to be an outside wedding
- Happening in MAY
- Ceremony will take place in the evening
- The more unique the better!
- My brides maids will all wear different dresses of which THEY will choose themselves (as long as it goes with my color palette) Which is what you see directly under the chosen images. “Potential bridesmaids dress colors” simply mean these are the colors the have to choose from.
And the rest is still up in the air… which is why I need your help!
So I’m dabbling with the idea of having a circus/carnival themed wedding. Not over done, but I think it could just be so charming. I want it to be one big party! Nothing formal or stressful or perfect… just a big celebration!
Here a few circus/carnival weddings I’ve found:
Otherwise just something lovely, quirky, stylish, and unique… all in one. haha
Here a few visuals when it comes to color palettes:
Which one of these is your favorite?
Hi Lizzy! Thanks for visiting me over at Crooked Shmooked! Congrats on the almost engagement… ha ha! I’ve had lots of friends plan before the actual engagement. A carnival theme would be amazing. My wedding was very elegant, but I erred on the side of too perfect and too formal and I wish I could do it all over again to do a casual, fun wedding. Weddings should be fun!! I can’t wait to see what sorts of things you choose! : ) And my favorite color scheme is 3, I think. Such pretty colors and I like that the yellow is a nice fun pop color! Of course, 1 is also gorgeous…
September 17, 2009 at 11:36 pmCall me! I wanna talk about these ideas& were is the place!?!?!? We need to talk asap. Ps. I like #6. & I think you may get yourself into a jam if you let us pick whatever dress bc we may pick the same color but one shade off to clash. Maybe you pick however many dresses & let us decide what one we want….. Just an idea.. Love you!!!

Katie- YES, we need to chat : )
I’ll be uploading pics of THE PLACE very soon!
And as far as the dresses go, I wondered about that too. I will have to approve the dress first. You guys can send me a pic or tell me where to find it. I’ll have a color palette for you guys to choose from and then it will kind of be a first come first serve basis. For example 2 shades of blue, 2 shades of purple, and 2 shades of red… if blue is already taken you’ll have to find one that is purple or red. Does that make sense? Ha it does in my head…
