Tuxedos- Khaki (yes, I am aware it rhymes with tacky). We just found the ONLY place that rents them out in the entire state of Utah.
Flowers- pale pink peonies and teal hydrangeas? Subject to change...
Centerpieces- Austin requested there be fish swimming around in the vases... um ya. Since this is pretty much his only request, i've got to make it happen.
Colors- Peach, coral, salmon, dusty rose with tiny, tiny bits of teal-ish blue
Decorations- Japanese lanterns, tissue paper pom poms, huge black and white pictures tinted with photo paint hung with fishing line
Food- Eh still working on that one...
Temple dress- Perfect. I got it on Monday and I've tried it on about six times already.
Invitations- simple, elegant and very pretty
Engagement pictures- This weekend!
Cake- Simple, 3 tiers with ribbon and fresh flower accents. Austin chose chocolate cake and white frosting.
Austin's ring- ordering it this week! Sterling silver with lapis inlays... size 11.5
Hair- long, long curls with textured, side-swept bangs
Make-up- dramatic eyelashes with 5 coats of mascara, simple shadow and line and apple colored blush
Anything else I'm forgetting?
Probably. That's what March is for.
We had friends who did the Japanese Fighting fish in glass bowls on top of mirrors at their reception- so- there you go- you could go with goldfish :)-
ReplyDeletepicture idea sounds rather familiar-
Don't worry! I won't post pictures of the receptions until after May 13th. My mother already warned me.
ReplyDeleteI like Austin's idea of the fish :-)
