what a beautiful wedding! I know I say it each time I post on here but I'm so excited that I have so many past brides that want to share their weddings with me. I'm determined to make my friday posts (or my once weekly posts, let's be honest) real weddings. here is week three in a row! gray is one of my favorite colors, so I was obsessed with her bridesmaid's dresses. she let them each choose their own dress with the only requirements that it be above the knee. such a perfect ombre selection. LOVE!!!
does it totally date me to say that I was married before the days of pinterest?? I know you're probably nodding yes- oh well! liz credits a lot of her inspiration to the various pinterest boards she followed during planning, and I'm totally jealous. anyways, enough from me, here is liz to tell you a little bit more about her day:
the wedding was at the Grandview in Poughkeepsie, NY. it was directly on the hudson and overlooked the mid hudson bridge. the whole "theme" of the wedding was pink and grey. check out the ring bearers' grey converse.
brayden (the older RB who is pictured above) was carrying domo the little brown thing, which had the rings on it. that was how justin proposed. love!!
I decided to go non-traditional with my wedding programs and made charactures through vistaprint.
All of the flowers were in antique blue mason jars found at a local antique shop.
The escort cards were traced and hand cut, then glued. I was trying to find grass to go into the plant holders the night before and couldn't. So I had to go to a nursery and buy sod. I had to hack it all up in the middle of the street in Queens to fit it inside the holders just right. That was an experience!
love the pictures she got of the bridesmaids' bags. :)
liz mentioned how the photobooth was the hit of the evening- I totally agree! photobooth's give all your guests something fun to participate in, especially those who don't like to dance. it was the hit of our wedding as well. :)
one of my favorite shots, and one that was inspired by pinterest! **
thanks so much for sharing your gorgeous wedding day with me, liz! hope married life is fabulous. :)
