The Perfect Dress

Finding the perfect dress for your big day is FAR from easy. But from what I hear, when you find the perfect one, you just know. There are so many different styles to choose from such as long or short, halter or strapless, vintage or modern, mermaid or princess, and much much more. Here are a few awesome dresses that I stumbled across:

All the dresses here are absolutely beautiful and the women look stunning. Finding the absolute perfect dress may take a long time but it will definitely be worth the wait!

Rock Seating Assignments

I recently attended the most beautiful wedding I have ever been to a few weeks ago. From the bride to the decorations, everything was perfect. The wedding was outside and the weather cooperated perfectly. Every little detail about the wedding was fantastic. While I was there a little DIY inspired idea caught my eye. For the name tags for place setting during the reception, they had names and table numbers written on rocks. And these rocks were placed on a table and they were surrounded by moss. It was such a little detail of the wedding but I found it to be absolutely adorable.

This is such a cute idea and it gives your wedding a little uniqueness. There are so many beautiful arrangements that people come up with. This is just one that I saw first-hand and absolutely loved!

Wedding Budget

Weddings are expensive. There is no way around that. But what would you be willing to spend the most money on? What aspect of your wedding would be most important to you?

For me, the most important thing I would want to have would be a great photographer. They are the ones who are capturing your special memories and allowing them to last forever. Choosing the right photographer for your wedding is crucial. The pictures they take will last a lifetime.

A way to make your wedding possibly a little cheaper but still keeping it elegant would be to incorporate some DIY ideas. Not only do you get to add a little uniqueness to your wedding but you get to potentially save a little money in the process. The money you save could be money you put towards other important wedding details. A website you can visit to take a look at some DIY projects and weddings that used them is: www.stylemepretty.com. This website has some awesome ideas and also beautiful pictures.

I want to know what will be the aspect that you will spend the most money on for your wedding. Or if you already had your wedding, what did you spend the most money on and were you happy that you did? Did you use any DIY projects that really turned out? I'm eager to hear what you all have to say!
