What to Wear Wednesday - Brown & Red

Good evening everyone and thanks for stopping in for What to Wear Wednesday!
As you know, this week's colour palette is brown and red but the shades that you use are entirely up to you and your own personal style. Since both a white or an ivory wedding dress would work for this colour palette, I'll be focusing mainly on the bridesmaids' fashions.


Bridesmaids:
Both red and brown are great colours for your bridesmaids' dresses since they are both pretty much universally flattering. Your girls will look and feel great in a warm shade of brown. Then again, who wouldn't thank you for a sizzling hot shade of red? Or you really could use both! Try a dress in one colour and accent it with a bow, a sash, or applique in the other!

I don't know the specific desinger of these dresses, but aren't they gorgeous? And what a great way to make your Maid of Honour stand out from the other bridesmaids!

Stop by for Floral Friday and don't forget to cast your vote for next week's Fall Colours!

A Weekend Wedding - Chocolate Mint

Good afternoon everyone and welcome to a Weekend Wedding in Chocolate Mint!

A strapless empire waisted wedding gown with embroidered and floral accents by Jim Hjelm is accented by a brown strapless dress with bow detail by JS Boutique. Gorgeous invitations in shades of rich chocolate brown and tempting mint green are sent out to the guests and they are complimented by place cards in matching shades. The flowers are in elegant ivory and a rich dark brown and are accented with a beautiful shade of green. The reception linens are also in a shade of chocolate brown and the guests sip delicious chocolate mint martinis while enjoying a slice of the tempting cake.

It's the Little Touches ...

Mint Green and Chocolate Brown favor boxes! Perfect!

Looking for an alternative to cake? Why not serve mint chocolate chip ice cream!

These boutonnieres of mint are not only gorgeous, but they smell fantastic!

There's only one day left to vote for this week's poll, so be sure to cast your vote!
