{Monday Eye Candy} Fascinating Fascinators

I am fascinated with fascinators!  These delightful headpieces can be sophisticated, whimsical, and over the top and they make fantastic accessories for you and your bridal party.  They feature beautiful flowers, soft feathers, delicate beading, or colourful fruit and many of them are paired with vintage inspired birdcage veils.  They easily attach to the hair with combs, clips, or headbands and can be worn with soft wavy curls, sleek up-dos, or messier styles.  If you are still looking for a great addition to your wedding day style, look no further!  Enjoy this {Monday Eye Candy} post ... fascinating fascinators!

{What to Wear Wednesday} Light Blue, Silver, & White

You'll be doing alright with your Christmas of white ...

Good evening everyone and welcome back for this week's edition of {What to Wear Wednesday}!
Christmas is approaching fast, but the ice and snow is already here! So, it's the perfect time for this week's colour palette of Light Blue, Silver, & White! Be sure to play up this palette with icey accents like snowflakes and crystals. Let's take a look at some great wintery inspirations!


{Accessories}
I love the idea of wearing a cardigan for a winter wedding! A warm and cute accessory, how could you possibly go wrong?
Your something blue can be something really chic, too! You will be sure to turn heads as you walk down the aisle wearing a veil in a blue hue.
Wearing your hair up? Accent pretty curls and loose styles with snowflake bobby pins like these clear ones on the left by etsy seller howbeadyful or these silver and rhinestone ones on the right by etsy seller tilleyjewels.
Wearing your hair down? Accent a soft flowing style with a simple yet elegant snowflake headband like this one by etsy seller blacksatinshoes.

Why not try an updated pearl necklace like these for your wintery wedding? They'd look great on you or your bridesmaids. And they're so pretty, how could you resist wearing it again and again? Both necklaces on top by etsy seller erinkeys; necklace on bottom by etsy seller vsc83.{Bridesmaid Dresses}

{A Weekend Wedding} Dark Blue, Burgundy, Purple Wedding

Good morning everyone and welcome to a {Weekend Wedding} in Dark Blue, Burgundy, Purple!

(click image for larger view)
A romanitc wedding dress with sweetheart neckline, fitted bodice, and full tulle skirt by Christina Wu is accented by a dramatic blue bridesmaid dress from Love by Enzoani. The invitations that the guests receive are a shade of blue to match the ceremony programs, seating cards, and menus. The ceremony chairs and reception tables are decorated with burgundy linens and offset by neutral white for a beautiful effect. The flowers are all about romance and feature calla lilies and orchids in breathtaking shades of burgundy and purple. The guests indulge in delicious red velvet cupcakes that are topped with roses in all shades of purple. Everyone is sent home with a token of the couple's appreciation wrapped up in a sweet little boxed and hand-tied with a dark blue ribbon.


{It's All About the Accessories...}
There will definitely "oohs" and "aahs" from the crowd as you walk down the aisle in this black birdcage veil with dark blue flower.

I firmly believe that white and ivory shoes on brides is outdated! Have fun on your day with shoes to match your colour palette, like these purple and dark blue heels.
These sweet little earrings are not only the perfect lovely shade of burgundy but they also make perfect little gifts for your bridesmaids!
Cast your vote for next week's colours!
And, don't forget to get your nomination(s) in for your favourite wedding movies before December 30th! You never know, your favourite just might be #1!

{Weekend Wedding} Rockabilly Theme

Good afternoon readers and welcome to a Rockabilly Themed Weekend Wedding!

(click image for larger view)

A fun tea-length wedding dress with sweetheart neckline by Stephanie James Couture is accented by a black halter neck wiggle dress that shows off all of the bridesmaid's sexy curves. Long before the rockin' vows are exchanged, the guests get a hint at the fun in store when they receive personalized invitations in the shape of old vinyl records. The reception venue is the perfect place for a vintage Rockabilly wedding. The table linens are black, white, and blue polka dots and the room is filled with vintage cars and memorabilia. Instead of serving a personalized cocktail, this couple opts for serving a classic, Coca-Cola in glass bottles! The guests marvel at a cake that is simple white with vintage tattoo inspired decorations. And of course, this wedding would not be complete without music! This is a wedding that will not soon be forgotten!

{It's the Little Touches...}

How amazing and how tasty could these little cakes be? Burger and fries mini-cakes harken back to the 50's burger joint and malt shop atmosphere.

A vintage netted veil, like this one, or a birdcage veil is perfect for a vintage 1950's or Rockabilly themed wedding. Plus, they are a stylish alternative to a longer more traditional veil.

These little favors are simple kraft paper boxes topped with a red bow and personalized tattoo label.

Next week is the last week of November's Vintage Month (gosh, is it December already?). We will be looking at a soft and beautiful Pink, Gold, and Ivory Vintage Wedding. Quick! Before it's too late, cast your vote for the theme that will kick of the magical month of December.
