  1. I'm wearing my mothers veil, but only for the ceremony, combined with a single white orchid. At the reception I'll change it out with a rhinestone headband
  2. What do the bridesmaid dresses look like? Do they have a sash? If so, you could flip the colors... Say the bridesmaids are in blue dresses with a gold sash, maybe the MOH could wear the same style dress in gold with a blue sash? That all depends on your colors... I would for example not put my MOH in a pink dress, even if that went well with black bridesmaid dresses (because that would stand out way to much, depending on how much of the color you are using)... Or if the sash is white... No, no, no.
  3. I agree with @kellymiller: Go and talk to a seamstress! What style is the wedding dress? Does it have a lot of fabric to work with? What style have you envisioned yourself in? I would suggest you to go through pictures online of things you like, and see if you can incorporate that in the heirloom dress. Are you planning to do big changes (use only the fabric and create a brand new dress with a different style), or are you just altering it a bit (adding/removing details, shortening, adding/removing straps etc)?
  4. You are absolutely gorgeous in both, but I really like the one with the black belt! Fits with a Las Vegas wedding! I guess it depends how formal you want it... The first one has a more shiny fabric, and the silver belt makes it really formal. The one with the black belt is still formal, and you can style it both up and down!
  5. Etsy has a lot of great shops. Do you like a certain style? Like pearls, hearts, simple, lots of bling? A simple search turned out to be the way to go for me! Trust me, when you see it, you'll know! There are also a lot of online stores if you google "jewelry" and the phrase/word that describes what you are envisioning... Don't worry, you have plenty of time! I'll have to wait until I get my dress (early May) to even begin to think about buying something! Luckily I'll only be wearing some killer earrings, so I hope that will narrow the search
  6. I'm wearing a real flower, but that's because I'll be wearing it only to the ceremony I'm having the same flowers as in the bouquet - white orchids. If I was going to wear it for a longer period of time, I would definitely go for a fake one!
  7. That seems just perfect! Love the color combinations, and the flowers are sooo beautiful!
  8. We're having a baker here at home do the same cake for us a year later... We're from Norway, getting married in Fiji, so transporting cake is just out of the question The baker in Fiji is going to write down the recipe for us, so that everything is as similar as possible! We are having fresh flowers on top, but I'm considering bringing a topper, so we can replicate it (no similar flowers here, I'm afraid)?
  9. We ordered this one, only with white orchids on top! We are only going to be the two of us, so the size of this cake is just perfect!!!
  10. I'm a Mori Lee bride! My dress is the Voyage style 6772, and here it is! http://www.morilee.com/images/Picture/6772/bg_img01.jpg
  11. I'm wondering about the same thing... Do you have to want until you have 150 posts to be able to do so?

  15. Here is my beautiful Mori Lee Voyage gown! I wanted something beachy yet formal, but when I saw this dress, I fell in love and could not think about anything else! I'm really offbeat, and with my undercut, tattoos and royal blue shoes, this was just the dress for me! Somewhat simple, but I can really pump it up with accessories and my personality! As soon as I get it, I'll post with me in it Hmmm... How do I upload so the pics show without the downloading part? New to this!
