A sweet and romantic wedding dress with asymmetrical layers of organza and flower detail by Alvina Valenta is accented by a simple yet elegant knee length bridesmaid dress by Siri in brown.  This springtime wedding features vibrant shades of pink infused with warm brown, soft yellow, and classic ivory.  The reception tables are draped in simple ivory linens and are topped with subtle pink floral centerpieces.  Instead of indulging in cake, the guests are served delicious french style macaroons in raspberry, chocolate, lemon, and coconut flavours.  At the end of the evening, everyone is sent home with a bottle of handmade citrus bubble bath to remind them of this vibrant springtime wedding.

{What to Wear Wednesday} Pink & Silver

Good afternoon everyone!
I apologize for the late post, but yet again I have fallen victim to life! BUT I'm back with a vengence on this late {What to Wear Wednesday} post!
This week we are looking at a fabulous Pink & Silver colour combination and I have to say that everything that I've come across so far has just gotten me more and more excited about it! Let's take a looking at some inspiring fashions for this one of a kind wedding colour combination!

{Jewelry & Accessories}
Your jewelry and accessories are like the icing on your cake and they really polish off your and your girls' overall look. Be sure to consider shoes, jewelry, purses, hair pieces, and even make up choices that really compliment your day!

{Bridesmaid Dresses}
For your girls' dresses you can choose to go with either silver or pink, they are both equally nice. I would recommend though that if you choose to go with silver dresses, that you also opt for a shorter length rather than a full length dress. Metallics can be a bit overwhelming in a full length dress, so a shorter dress will keep your wedding from committing a crime against fashion! Also, pretty pink bouquets look STUNNING against silver dresses ... just saying :)
